ABSTRACT

Poor or improper storage facilities of seeds before sowing are responsible for destruction of
a large part of our seed banks. Pre-harvest and post-harvest fungal infections destroy the viability
and vigour of even good quality seeds during storage. If only 40% of seeds germinate on sowing,
it will be a great economic loss indeed. A simple process like pre-sowing seed treatment with
aqueous extracts of common wild plants readily available not only enhances better and vigorous
growth ,but also can save up to 60% of seeds from damage due to fungal infections.
