Modern agriculture requires quick tests to evaluate the seeds quality, in order to determine their potential use. The electrical conductivity test has been used for many species, especially legumes seeds. This research was carried out in order to investigate the relationship between the amount of electrolytes (K+, Ca++ and Mg++) on the seed soaked solution and the vigor measured by electrical conductivity test of bean seeds (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) stored at 10 and 25 °C. Three seed lots cultiv ar IAPAR - 81 (Carioca Group) and three cultivar IPR - TIZIU (black group) were stored in a cold chamber at 10 °C and in a BOD at 25 °C. Eval uations were done in intervals of three months over a 12 months and the variables were: water content, germination and vigor (accelerated aging and electrical conductivity tests). The potassium content in the imbibition solution was determined by flame photometry and the calcium and magnesium contents, by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The statistics model used was completely randomized design in a factorial (four periods of storage X three temperatures) with additional treatment (initial assessment) with four replicates for each lot. The cultivars showed similar behavior in storage. Electrical conductivity values decreased in the last evaluation and it was not followed by reduction of the ions quantified. The potassium was the ion leached in larger amounts from bean seeds stored, and it´s behavior was closest to the results of electrical conductivity test.
