five different media with two concentrations and kinds of carbohydrates and peptone treatments were examined for their effectiveness in promoting asymbiotic seed germination of epipactis  veratrifolia. results revealed significant differences between media on seed germination percentage and protocorm growth and fast medium has the best effect on both. carbohydrate treatments had significant eff...

in this study, in vitro non-symbiotic germination of self pollinated seeds, protocorms survival percentage and protocorms growth of phalaenopsis ‘kyoto’ were investigated. for this purpose, five different modified media include vasin and went (vw), murashing and skoog (ms), ½ ms, knudson c (kc), fast that supplemented with two g/l peptone, 15 percent sterile coconut water or two g/l peptone tog...

Our study was to develop a rapid and successful method for promoting asymbiotic seed germination and growth and development of protocorm like bodies (PLBs) and subsequent plantlets of Phalaenopsis orchid. Four basal media i.e. Murashige and Skoog (MS), half strength MS (½MS), Knudson C (KC) and, Vacin and Went (VW) supplemented with coconut water and peptone were examined for their effectivenes...

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...

low seed germination and seedling emergence is one of the main problems in saline areas. seed priming technique has been known as a challenge to improve germination and seedling emergence under different environmental stress. the objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of seed priming with gibberellin, nacl and water on seed germination and seed reserve utilization and germination...

mechanical damages inflicted upon seeds in harvesting, handling and further subsequent processes are worth attention because they unfavourably influence the quality of seed. seed damage results in lower grain value, storage problems, and reduced seed germination and seedling vigor, resulting in a subsequent diminishing yield of future crops. the present experiments were conducted to determine t...

This current study investigated the influence of Magnetic Field from Winding coil magnet about ( 400 mT ) for different exposure periods 0, 30 , 60 90 120 150 min on seed germination, callus initiation, and fresh weight, protein, carbohydrate proline content vitality in addition to efficacy some antioxidant enzymes . The results indicated that highest germination percentage was when exposed an ...
