The seed vigor of white gourd was studied in all aspects, such asroom germination, field germination, Zymogrames, electrical conductivity andTTC quantitative analysis. The result shows that the genetic variation of seedvigor between different varieties is evident and the storability of tested whitegourd seeds is better. It also shows the two opposite effects of stress environ-ment treatments. The seed vigor decreases after long-time and high-intensivedresstreatment but increases after short-time and low-intensive dress treatment. Inaddition, the pape...
