1000-seed weight — Sarepta mustard

Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.

An important economic indicator characterizing the size, plumpness, and productivity potential of Sarepta mustard seeds, with values typically ranging from 1.7 to 6.0 g.

In the reference 3 varieties crop Brown mustard, where this is mentioned in the description.

The 1000-seed weight is a key parameter for the precise calculation of seeding rates, allowing for the conversion from weight-based rates to the number of viable seeds per hectare. Large seeds with higher weight contain a greater reserve of nutrients, which promotes the formation of more vigorous seedlings and ensures a better start for plants under field conditions.

The typical range for Sarepta mustard is 1.7 to 6.0 g, with modern breeding varieties capable of demonstrating values from 3.3 to 4.7 g. This indicator is subject to change depending on growing conditions: moisture deficit, high temperatures during the grain-filling period, disease pressure, or lodging reduce seed plumpness, whereas optimal mineral nutrition, particularly the application of sulfur fertilizers, contributes to its increase.
