Varietal characteristics of the economic longevity of soybean seeds

In modern agricultural production one of the key factors in ensuring stable yields is maintaining of highquality seed material during long-term storage. The purpose of the study was to identify soybean varieties with increased seed longevity and to determine the main factors influencing the preservation of seed germination scapacity and seed vigor during three years of storage. The research was carried out in Uman district, Cherkasy region using seed samples of ten soybean varieties: ES Mentor, Halleck, OAC Brook, OAC Straiv, OAC Lakeview, Opus, OAC Medoc, Sigalia, Kobza, and Perlyna. Seed samples of category SN-1 harvested in 2022 were stored in polypropylene bags in premises without temperature and humidity control, which reproduced typical storage conditions of conventional agricultural warehouses. The results showed that during the first year of storage, seed moisture content remained within the range of 9.8–13.6 % and did not exceed critical values. In most of the varieties studied, seed germination exceeded 80 % during the first two years of storage, which meets standard requirements. The varieties OAC Medoc, Opus, Kobza, and OAC Strive proved to be the most resistant to deterioration in sowing qualities: they showed the least decrease in germination and germination energy even in the third year of storage. The analysis showed that seed longevity largely depends on the morphophysiological characteristics of the variety, particularly seed density, thickness and structural features of the seed coat, and protein and oil content. The research results can be applied to further improvement of seed production system, optimization of storage conditions, as well as in selection programs aimed at resistance enhancing of varieties to adverse environmental factors during storage.

Key words: soybean, varietal characteristics, seed longevity, germination, viability, storage conditions, varietal resistance, soybean varieties.
