Abstract


We examined the effect of nutrient supply and grain size on some laboratory research parameters of wheat and triticale seeds (thousand seed weight, percentage of germination, germination vigour) and on the basis of the results to provide useful information for practice. The thousand seed weight was significantly affected by the size of the grain, but the nutrient treatments also had an effect on it. The nutrient supply in most cases did not significantly change the percentage of germination in the average of the tested varieties. Along with the growing grain size the percentage of germination was also improving in both species. The percentage of germination difference between the highest and lowest seed size in both species was statistically justified. Germination vigour had also the best result in the maximum grain size. Considering the study results, the grains larger than 2.2 mm-s can be recommended for market.
