Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects application glyphosate herbicide on seed reserve mobilization and seedling morphology genetically modified soybean. Two herbicide-tolerant (TMG 1264RR P98Y11) two herbicide-sensitive (Emgopa 315 UFUS 7415) cultivars were selected for study subjected germination, length, tests after treatments with solutions at concentrations 0.00, ...

the present research was conducted under laboratory and field condition to determine seed priming effects on maize inbred line's germination, emergence, and grain yield. seeds of two maize inbred lines include of mo17 (as paternal line) and b73 (as maternal line with cytoplasmic sterility) in the laboratory conditions were subjected to hydropriming for 12, 24, 36 and 48 h, or osmoticprimin...

Germination incorporates events that commence with the uptake of water (imbibition) by the quiescent dry seed and terminates with the emergence of the embryonic axis, usually the radicle. It is a time of intensemetabolic activity, involving subcellular structural changes, respiration, macromolecular syntheses and, finally, cell elongation. Establishment of the seedling occurs following germinat...

Calotropis proceran (Asclepidaceae) is an evergreen plant and widely distributed in Hormozgan province. This plant has the allelopathic properties including germination inhibition, plumule and radicle growth reduction. In this study the effect of different concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 60%) of dry leaf water extraction of this plant on the germination of cucumber (Cucumis sativus), tomat...

To determine the effect of salt stress on seed germination of Leymus species, seeds of Leymus racemosus (Lam.) Tzvel., Leymus angustus (Trin.) Pilger, Leymus multicaulis (Kar. et Kir.) Tzvel., Leymus duthiei (Stapf) Y. H. Zhou et H. Q. Zhang and Leymus secalinus (Georgi) Tzvel. were treated with NaCl solutions of different concentration: 0 mmol/L, 100 mmol/L, 200 mmol/L, 300 mmol/L, 400 mmol/L ...

the present experiments is deciding to study the effect of hematite and volcanic ash on growth and physiological traits in sorghum factorial in a randomized complete design with  treatments and replications treatments consisted of volcanic ash concentrations (0, 0.25 and 0.5 g), hematite at three concentrations (0, 0.25 and 0.5 g), respectively. the results showed that the largest radicle and p...

in order to investigate the effects of seed inoculation with plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) on germination components and seedling growth of corn (zea mays l.), a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at the seed technology laboratory of mohaghegh ardabili university, iran, during 2008. studied factors were: corn cultiv...

The study of the metabolism of Azotobacter has been generally approached from the standpoint of the r6le of this organism in the nitrogen cycle in Nature, but the fact that the ability to fix free nitrogen is regulated by the presence or absence of combined nitrogen in the medium has not been given serious attention although it is made plain in the works to be cited. Bejierink and Van Delden (1...
