Studies on evaluation of the influence of seed fortification with inorganic nutrients as pre-sowing seed management technique expressed that KH2PO4 and KCl at 1 per cent among the nutrients (MgSO4, MnSO4, ZnSO4, FeSO4, borax) were highly suitable for invigourating the seed and seedling quality characters. The seeds were fortified in the respective solution for a duration of 16 h with equal volume of seed to solution ratio.

Studies were made to evaluate the seed treatments (halogen mixture, bavistin and diflubenzuron) and storage containers (paper bag, 700 gauge polyethylene bag and aluminium foil polylaminated pouch) on storability of petunia seeds with cv.Mix. The results revealed that the germination reduces from 96 to 75 per cent with 12 months of storage period under ambient condition irrespective of treatments. Among the seed treatments, halogen mixture followed by diflubenzuron found to be better as seed treating chemicals.
