An investigation was carried out in order to know the influence of NAA, triacontanol and boron viability and vigour
level of seed in bitter gourd cv. PUSA VISESH. Resultant seeds were stored in cloth bags under ambient storage condition and
seed quality was tested after every month upto end of storage period. Results revealed that NAA 50 ppm recorded highest seed
germination and seedling vigour index (83.25% and 1757, respectively). Whereas, boron at 4 ppm recorded higher speed of
germination and seedling length (18.23 and 21.16 cm, respectively). Storage study reveled that boron at 4 ppm maintained highest
seed viability and vigour quality till the end of twelve months storage period.
