An experiment was conducted to find out the suitable substrata and temperature requirements for germination testing in Jatropha seed, collected from six different locations of Haryana. The seed lots were tested on sufficient moistened three substrata viz., sand, B. P. and T. P..and at fpur different temperatures 20, 25, 20-30 and 30°C with 90-95% RH in seed germinator. Highest germination was observed in sand followed by between paper (BP). Among various temperatures, maximum germination was recorded at 30°C followed by 25°C. No germination was recorded in top of paper at 20°C and 20¬300e temperature. Based on the above parameters recorded, 30°C temperature and sand substrata were found best for germination test for Jatropha seed.
