Abstract
Abstract A field study was conducted with the objective of determining the effects of soil moisture on seed yield and quality of mungbean ( Vigna radiata L. Wilczek) when grown under rainfed and irrigated conditions in a dry season. Seed quality was determined in terms of germination and production of normal seedlings after controlled deterioration. The presence of adequate soil moisture increased growth and yields of mungbean significantly. The seeds from irrigated plots had a greater weight, owing to heavier cotyledons. Although germination of seeds from the irrigated plots was higher before and after controlled deterioration for 72 h, the number of abnormal seedlings was also greater. Controlled deterioration reduced germination of both categories of seed in the same manner. These factors indicate the low potential of using seeds produced under irrigation in dry seasons as planting material, especially after storage.
