in order to the study of the salinity effects on seed germination and effecting parameter of fennel (foeniculum vulgare) was conducted a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with two factors and three replications. factor a was 10 ecotypes, including; sardasht, saghghez, kerman, tabriz,sabzevar, rome, khusf, bojnoord, mashhad and shabestar and factor b was five concentrations ...

We investigated the prevalence of seed borne fungal pathogens in rice variety BRRI Dhan46 and to evaluate the efficacy of antagonistic bacteria in controlling seed borne disease. A composite sample of BRRI Dhan46 was assayed. Five seed borne fungi viz. Fusarium sp., Bipolaris oryzae, Curvularia sp., Gliocladium sp. and Aspergillus flavus were isolated from the rice seeds. Fifteen probable antag...

Background & Aim: Because of seed germination ability of medicinal plants seed is low and, generally exposed to problem. Priming is one of the techniques that help seeds to be germinated faster and uniformly. Experimental: A laboratory experiment was carried out on germination and growth improvement in Heracleum persicum Desf.  by seed osmo-primming in Seed Technology Labora...

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs) are a group of bacteria that can actively colonize plant roots and can modulate plant growth. The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of three PGPRs strains designated as Pseudomonas fluorescens (PF23) and P. putida (PP-41 and PP-159) on seed germination features including germination percentage (GP), mean time germination (MTG), germi...

to study the effect of salinity stress on seed germination and seedling growth of four medicinal plants, nigella sativa l., cannabis sativa l., trigonella foenum graecum and cynara scolymus l. an experiment was conducted in the botany laboratory of islamic azad university, birjand branch. a completely randomized design (crd) with 3 replications was used as separately for each species. treatment...

The genetic basis of seed germination and seedling vigor is largely unknown in Brassica species. We performed a study to evaluate the genetic basis of these important traits in a B. rapa doubled haploid population from a cross of a yellow-seeded oil-type yellow sarson and a black-seeded vegetable-type pak choi. We identified 26 QTL regions across all 10 linkage groups for traits related to seed...
