The mungbean cultivars (Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczeck and relates species request to different conditions of germination
Main Article Content
Abstract
It was evaluated one collection of mungbean cultivars (Vigna radiate (L.) R. Wilczek) and related species of the genus Vigna like: rice bean (Vigna umbellata); urd bean (Vigna mungo) and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) in order to observe their potential in the sprouts germination. The work was realized in laboratory conditions and was observed the request of germination of 15 cultivars of mungbean and three cultivars of Vigna related in two conditions of temperature (23º C y 26º C). Especially its value how it showed the different phases of the develop of germination in all cultivars evaluated at 15, 22, 30, 38, 46, 63 y 70 hours of mounted the experiment. The study including the evaluation of the imbibition, the emission of the radicle, the radicle widen and the emergency of air part. The cultivar with higher speedy were M-46, A1, M-136 and the commercial testing VC 9302. In addition, it was possible to verify that the specie Vigna radiate has the better ability for the germination with index higher at 94 %. Moreover, indicators like: the number of imbibed grains after three days was a more rapid processing in mungbean respect an evaluated. A high indices of diseases seed was determined in one accession of Vigna unguiculata it was show infection index of 29.17% and 34 % in the temperature off 23 ºC and 26 ºC respectively.
