Studies were carried out on seeds of TGx-1448-2E and TGx-1951-3F in a 2×3 and 2×2 factorials experiment in a complete randomized designed replicated three times for packaging materials and storage conditions, respectively. The experiment was conducted at the Plant Breeding and Seed Science Laboratory, University of Agriculture, Makurdi. Packaging materials used were paper, cloth and polyethylene bags and the storage conditions were cold at 15EC and ambient at 32EC for 6 months. Germination test was carried out according to the standard procedure of International Seed Testing Association at 5 and 8 days after planting. Twenty five intact seeds were placed in petridishes containing double layered rolled filter paper. Petri-dishes were moistened everyday with distilled water and seeds were allowed to germinate. Data were obtained from five normal seedlings for root, shoot and seedling lengths. Seedling dry weight was determined after sun drying to a constant weight and weighed by an electronic balance. Data was subjected to analysis of variance using the Genstat Release 7.2 software. Significant treatment means were separated using LSD at 5% probability. Results indicated that packaging materials did not influence germination, seedling vigour of soybean while, cold storage conditions were significantly different for germination percentage, seedling dry weight however, seedling vigor was not significant. Cold storage had higher germination percentage and seedling dry matter but this did not translate to higher seedling vigour. Varieties performed differently under cold storage.

Asafoetida (Ferula assafoetida L.) is a medicinal plant with a problematic seed germination. Seeds of this plant have a long dormancy. The present research was carried out to investigate whether exogenous application of the hormones Gibberellic Acid (GA3), N6-furfurylaminopurine (kinetin) and 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), alone or in combinations and chilling (for 0 or 28 days) could be used to alleviate the problem of dormancy. Germination was increased from 53.3% in a medium free of any hormones to 74.4% in a medium supplemented with 0.25 mg L-1 BAP. This was the only single hormone treatment giving a statistically significant increase in germination. Chilling increased germination from 37.5% (0 days of chilling) to 82.9% (28 days of chilling). Combining exogenous application of 0.25 mg L-1 BAP with 28 day chilling even gave more than 90% seed germination. Present findings suggest that seeds germination of Asafoetida can be greatly improved by combining chilling with BAP application
