    INFLUENCE OF SEED SIZE AND SEED TREATMENT ON QUALITY AND YIELD OF MUNGBEAN
    (INSTITUTE OF SEED TECHNOLOGY, SHER-E-BANGLA AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY DHAKA 1207, 2016-06) FERDOUS, REDWANA
    A field experiment was conducted to study the influence of seed size and seed treatment on quality and yield of mungbean at the central experimental farm, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka-1207, Bangladesh during August to November, 2016. Treatments consisted of three different seed sizes 1 0 = Composite, S = Control, P Control, B 1 1 2 = Large and S 3 = Small = 1g per kg seed) and two levels of bleaching powder = 2g per kg seed) height, number of leaves, plant dry weight, nodule numbers, number of branches; and yield and yield contributing characters i.e. pods number, pods length, number of seeds pod -1 , 1000 seeds weight of mungbean was significantly influenced by seed size, red chili powder and bleaching powder.The treatments S 2 , P 1 , B 1 , S 2 P 1 , S 2 B 1 , P 1 B 1 and S 2 highest vegetative growth, reproductive development and seed yield 1123.78, 1095.64, 1394.99, 1403.53, 1358.53 and 1932.67 kg ha respectively attributed to the highest number of pods plant -1 , pod weight plant weight. So, the applicationof red chili powder and bleaching powder and improvement of vegetative and reproductive development is attributed to the seed quality. Thus, it can be concluded that the application of red chili powder and bleaching powder had a positive impact on larger seeds size of mungbean. P 1 B -1 1 0 gave the , 1000 seeds = -1 ,
