Seeds of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) were stored at room temperature (14.9-30.78°C) or cold storage (5°C) in three different package types i.e., cloth bags, aluminum foil bags (0.05 mm) and tin cans; for 24 months, starting from January 1994 till December 1995. Results revealed that seeds stored at (5°C) retained their viability better than those stored at room temperature. Storing eggplant seeds in aluminum bags or tin cans gave similar results, in terms of seed index up to 24 months storage, Seeds germinarion percentages were 81.54%, 75.18% and 66.76%; just after seed extraction, 12 months and 24 mo‌nths of storage periods; respectively. Successive reduction in germina‌tion percentages were slower, and tin cans were the best type, for seeds stored in cold storage (5°C) Averages germination rates were 3.62 and 5.02 days after seed extraction and 24 months of storage period, re‌spectively. The slowest germination rate was observed for seeds packed in cloth bags and stored at room temperature. Length of seedling declined with the expansion of storage period. Total protein content decreased at the range of 1.5% and 2.5% during seed storage for 24 months in cold storage and room temperature. Ami‌no acid analysis of seeds stored, in tin cans, under room temperature showed high values than under cold storage (5°C). Data indicated that eggplant seeds, with 6.6 percent moisture content, could be safely stored, in tin cans or aluminum foil bags (0.05 mm), for 24 months under cold storage (5°C) conditions.
