The aim of this work was to investigate the deterioration of Moringa oleifera Lam. (moringa) seeds during storage under controlled conditions. Seeds were conditioned in semipermeable plastic bags and stored in a growth chamber (27 ± 2 ºC and RH 65%) and in a refrigerator (4 ± 2 ºC and RH 25%) for 18 months. Harvests were performed prior to storage and every 3 months. Water content, germination percentage, mean germination time, seedling length and dry weight, and content of neutral lipids, starch, soluble proteins, total soluble sugars, non- reducing sugars, and total free amino acids, as the activity of lipases, amylases and acid proteases were evaluated. Water content, viability, and vigor remained unchanged, as well as the content of neu...
