Abstract Physiological processes of mung seeds (Vigna radiata variety Pusa Baishakhi) and their germination were found to be affected by different concentrations of aflatoxin B1. Inhibition in seed germination, seedling growth, chlorophyll, protein and nucleic acid syntheses was found to be due to aflatoxin B1. The range of inhibition varied with the concentration of the toxin added.
