Quality seed is a vital input in agriculture that determines the potential of
yield and quality of crop. Cucumber seed production has several issues
such as formation of higher number of under developed seeds, sensitivity to
micronutrient deficiency, exhibition of dormancy in freshly harvested seed
etc. These above said issues directly affects seed quality and yield of
cucumber. Optimization of harvesting stage and post-harvest ripening
period, standardization of position of seed on plant and within the fruit,
plant energy management through fruit load management and exogenous
supply of chemicals/micronutrient etc. may be the best possible approaches
to address these problems. In present review the different problems
associated with cucumber seed production and possible approaches to
overcome them are discussed.
