Abstract:

The seeds of 12 maize varieties purchased at the seed market of Wujiaqu in Xinjiang Province were investigated. The results showed that most of the seeds of maize varieties reached the national standard in terms of cleanliness, moisture content, but the germination rate of some varieties did not reach the national compulsory standard, and the germinating potential of different varieties varied greatly. The highest and the lowest germinating rate were 90% and 15%, respectively. The grain weight of different varieties was greatly influenced by heredity, but the uniformity of single grain weight among varieties varied from 3.78 to 7.38. The single grain weight had significantly positive correlation with bud length, root length, bud weight, and root weight. In addition, the seed weight uniformity also had a significantly positive correlation with main root length, root weight, bud length, and bud weight. The population uniformity of maize at the germination stage was influenced by the uniformity of grain weight.

Key words: Maize, Seed quality, Grain weight, Uniformity, Germination rate, Germination potential
