Muscari seed germination enhancement by using sulfuric acid, and stratification priming

Abstract Muscari with absorbing color is a widespread and commercial species. As pot bedding bulb flower has excellent adaptability vigorous growth in late winter early spring. The quantity uniformity of propagation by seed the importance priming will be measured current experiment. selected M. neglectum populations which already were gathered our previews research armeniacum evaluated under separated sulfuric acid (5, 15, 20 min) hot water scarification plus 30, 45 days stratification completely randomized design, four replications planted separate containers. Seeds only germinate (70%) 15 min 45-day treatments. Based on analysis variance mean comparison data that reported neglectum, their seeds optimally germinated 5 treatment stratification. In conclusion, germination tuned to take place well mid-winter natural conditions; other hand, lengthy constant accelerate germination.
