Physiological and morphological traits of seed and their variability in dependence on the
growing location were studied in 2014. The analyses were carried out on hybrid seed of three
commercial hybrid combinations produced in three locations. The following seed traits were
observed under laboratory conditions: germination energy, total germination and 1000-seed
weight. The highest, i.e. lowest values of germination and germination energy were recorded
in the hybrid H3, i.e. H1, respectively. The greatest 1000-seed weight was detected in the
hybrid H3. With regard to the growing location, the highest values of germination and
germination energy were recorded in the location B (97.166%), while the location A was most
suitable for the expression of 1000-seed weight. The greatest 1000-seed weight amounted to
394.67 g. The hybrid combination location interaction significantly affected all three traits.
The highest energy and germination were recorded in the hybrid H1 in the loca...tion B. The
hybrid combination H2 and the location C had the highest effect on 1000-seed weight. This
trait mostly varied in the hybrid combination H3 in the location C. Average values of
germination energy, total germination and 1000-seed weight very significantly depended on
the hybrid combination and the growing location
