Abstract:In order to select excellent germplasms and meet the needs of further genetic improvement and breeding,111 pepper lines were used as experimental materials to study seed germination characteristics including germination energy,germination rate and germination index under the condition of floating seedling.The germination energy,germination rate and germination index of ‘gc 2016-18’ were 100%,100%,1.34,respectively,which were the highest among all materials.The germination energy,germination rate and germination index of ‘ gx2016-4’ ‘ gx2016-7’ ‘ gx2016-20’ ‘ gx2016-23’ ‘gc2016-47’ and ‘gv2016-2’ fluctuated between 90.00% and 100.00%,90.00% and 100.00%,1.34 and 1.00 respectively.The germination energy of 16.22% lines was no less than 80.00% (GE≥80.00%),The germination rate of 40.54% lines was no less than 80.00% (GR≥80.00%) and the germination index of 17.12% lines was no less than 1.00 (GI≥1.00).
