In order to estimate intra-population variability, some mother trees of Albizia procera of Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh) region were evaluated for their pod, seed and germination characteristics. Significant variation within the population was recorded with respect to almost all morphological characters of pod, seed and germination. Large amount of variation was observed in mother trees dbh, seed weight per pod, percentage of deformed seed, germination per cent, percentage of hard and dead seed and field emergence. No significant relationship between mother tree dbh and any of the parameter studied was observed except for percentage of hard seed. Selection of superior trees based on germination testing in addition to tree characters like dbh has been emphasised for quality seed collection.

Thirteen different provenances of Acacia nilotica were collected from different agroclimatic zones of India. Before sowing in the field, all the provenances were tested for seed mycoflora and germination. Large number of fungi belonging to different taxonomic groups were identified from seeds of A. nilotica. Aspergillus terreus showed the highest dominance in different provenances. The frequency of fungi was less in the provenances of Mandla and Jabalpur. A fungus Trichurus spiralis was recorded first time only on 6 provenances. The fungus was secreting the inhibitory substances, which possibly reduced the germination of seeds.Keywords

The germination tests were performed with 4 different tree species in laboratory. The purity percentage and number of pure seeds per kg were also calculated. Lagerstroemia parviflora showed poor germination even from the fresh lots while other species showed high germination percentage. Over all 12 fungi were recorded in blotter as well as potato-dextrose-agar test which varies from species to species. Out of 4 fungicides used for seed treatment Bavistin, Dithane M-45 and Thyride @ 3 gm/kg seed weight were highly effective in controlling the seed myeoflora. It is recommended that the seeds of B. monosperma, D. strictus, L. parviflora and P. pinnata may be treated with the above light dose of fungicides for controlling fungal infestation.- Use of TTC for Interpretation of Viability of Seeds of Albizia procera (ROXB.)

The present investigation deals with the standardization of viability test by the use of TTC. It was found that seeds in 0.3% solution of TTC, at 30°C gave best staining results for Albizia procera seeds.- Tetrazolium Test for the Seeds of Acacia nilotica Willd. Ex. Del

The paper deals with the standardization of evaluation criteria for the tetrazolium test on the seeds of Acacia nilotica Willd.ex.Del. Chipping of seed coat was found necessary for satisfactory imbibition and staining. Seeds were soaked in distilled water for 24 hours followed by soaking in 1% 'ITZ solution and incubated at 30°C in dark for 24 hours. Six staining patterns were recognized. Root mean square method was applied to determine the viable categories. Three staining patterns represented viable and three non-viable seeds.- Fungicidal Effect on Germination of Butea monosperma Seeds during Storage

The seeas of Pithecelobium dulce, Tamrindus indica and Terminalia bellirica were collected from different localities of Madhya Pradesh. The germination of seeds was studied immediately after one month of collection and found more than 70 per cent germination on blotter paper as well as in soil mixture. Eight fungal species were isolated from the seeds of tested species. Aspergilli, Chaetomium sp., and Rhizopus stoloniler were associated with the seeds of all three species under study. The seed dressing with Bavistin, Dithane M-45, Thyride, F'ytolan and Ceresan @ 3 g per kg seed weight gave best control of majority of seed-born fungi.- A Note on Abnormal Seedling of Dendrocalamus strictus (Nees)
