ABSTRACT
Requirements concerning seed quality are growing constantly. Parsley is a plant species producing seeds with low genetic seed vigour. Parsley seeds are usually germinating slowly and this process is extended in time. Lack of uniformity in field emergence results in a lower root yield and quality. Plants emerging on different days produce roots of different size and weight. Improvement of parsley seed quality is an important issue. A selection of seeds according to their quality can be one of the methods. Chlorophyll fluorescence measurement is a quick, non-destructive method and its results are negatively correlated to the germination ability and field emergence.
