Abstract

The results of investigations of the effect of damage seeds of Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench. and Echinacea pallida (Nutt.) Nutt. on crop quality are presented. It is established that damage to the surface of the pericarp during harvesting in the future leads to a significant decrease in seed quality and development of seedlings. The analysis of population by micromycetes indicates greater contamination with secondary infection of damages of echinacea seeds
