Abstract
For the white clover seed production,soil water status is a very important factor.Five water treatments were designed in Yunnan Sheep Farm from July 2004 to June 2005 to determine the effects of irrigation on white clover seed development and quality.The results show that water content in seeds produced with all the five treatments decreased under water shortage.The seed weight of white clover with no irrigation reached the maximal rate earlier than the others with light or moderate water stress,or no water stress,or heavy water stress.The soluble sugar content in seed decreased gradually,and the severer the water shortage was,the quicker the soluble sugar content descended.Water shortage increased the amount of hard seeds,and does not affect the seed vigor and germination rate.
