Total dehydrogenase activity and formation of polyribosomes in embryonic axes and cotyledons of V. faba Grot seeds harvested in 1984-87 were studied in 1987. Germination capacity ranged from 82.4 to 98.6% with corresponding variations in seed vigour. Storage for 1-3 years reduced total dehydrogenase activity in embryonic axes by 17-33%.
