The genus Thymus is perennial medicinal plants belong to the Lamiaceae familythat is used for different propose in pharmaceutical industry. Environmental stresses,particularly salinity, are considered as the major factor reducing plant growth. The purpose ofthis study was to investigate the effects of salt stress on germination characteristics andseedling morphology in two medicinal species of ...

Pyrethrum is a perennial daisy grown commercially for the insecticide that is extracted from its flowers. In order to evaluate germination and seedling growth of pyrethrum under different temperature and drought stress treatments, an experiment was conducted in seed technology laboratory of Faculty of Agriculture of Islamic Azad University of Isfahan branch in 2018. During this experiment, poly...

in order to evaluation the effect of drought stress on germination indices and early seedling growth of medicinal herb dill (anethum graveolens l), an experiment was conducted in the agricultural laboratory of urmia payam noor university in 2015 as a randomized complete block design with four replications. treatments were five levels of drought stress (0, -1, -2, -3 and -4 bar induced by polyet...

Carex divisa is a patrimonial rhizomatous species and acts as an important component of grazed wet permanent grassland on the French Atlantic coast. This study treated three storage regimes (wet-cold, dry-cold and dry-warm), burial in soil, fluctuating temperature and salinity on seed germination of C. divisa. The seeds were dormant at maturity. No seed germinated after 2 and 6 weeks of dry sto...

time of acquisition desiccation tolerance in peanut seed during different growing stages was determined by evaluating seed moisture content, germination capability and electrical conductivity. it was done in research field of gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources in completely block randomize design in four planting date and four replications. sampling was done weakly...

The present investigation was carried out to study the induced mutagenesis of EMS (Ethyl methane sulphonate) on the seed germination, seedling survival and LD50 value of Catharanthus roseus. The seeds of Vinca rosea were treated with different concentration of EMS viz., 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 and 50 mM. The untreated seeds were taken as control. The EMS treated and control seeds were...

Hydrotime is a way to describe the relationship between water potential (ψ) and seed germination rates and percentages. The minimum ψ that allows germination to be completed is called the base water potential (ψb). The germination rate (inverse of time to radicle emergence) increases linearly as the seed ψ increases above ψb to its maximum rate in water (ψ = 0 MPa). As ψb values vary among indi...

An investigation was made to see the salt tolerance of 10 weed species of rice. Properly dried and treated seeds of weed species were placed on 9 cm diameter petridishes lined with Whatman No. 1 filter paper under 6 salinity regimes, viz. 0 (control), 4, 8, 16, 24 and 32 dS m(-1). The petri dishes were then kept in germinator at 25 +/- 1.0 degrees C and 12 hr light. The number of germinated see...
