This study was carried out in order to determine the effects of boron and cold stress on pollen germination of almond hybrids in vitro culture, two different media including the absence and presence of boron (0 mg/l, and 100 mg/l) in 10% sucrose and 1% agar medium at 24°C in dark conditions. The results showed that different treatments had a significant effect on the germination percentage. The...

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 ...

to investigate the effects of different salinity levels of nacl on germination of safflower (cv. esfahan 24) seeds under three different incubation methods, a factorial experiment was carried out based on a complete randomize design with three replications. salinity levels were 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 dsm-1 (nacl) and incubation methods were sandwich method, and using petri dishes with open or clos...

the objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of different concentration of salicylic acid on enhancement germination characteristics of sanguisorba minor l. under salt and drought stress. the experimental design was factorial arranged in a completely randomized block design with four replications. treatment were combination of 5 levels of salt and drought stress, separately (0, -0....

nitric oxide (no) is a bioactive molecule, which was found to have several physiological roles, including antioxidant. to have a better understanding of the effects of no concentrations (0, 0.1 and 0.2 mm) on germination, growth, photosynthetic pigments, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant activity of basil (ocimum basilicum l.) under different salinity concentrations (0, 100 and 200 mm of nacl)...

Seeds of Dixie crimson clover (Trifolium incarnatum cv. Dixie) completed germination in 36 hours at 20 C. At 10 C germination was delayed by 24 hours. At 30 C only 20% germinated and the rest remained viable for a long time but not germinable. Different patterns of adenylate energy state and zymograms of acid phosphatase and esterase were observed from seeds grown under the three temperatures f...

the dormancy characteristics and optimum conditions for seed germination of alstroemeria ligtu had not been explained. in vitro and in vivo alstroemeria (a. ligtu hybrid) seed germination tests were conducted in a randomized completely design at two different treatments (gibberellic acid (ga3) 0, 100, 200 and 400 mg/l with and without stratification in 5±1oc) in four replications. seeds were pl...

The success of a biological invasion relies on the environment and is closely linked to factors such as water and temperature. Invasive plant species display different seed characteristics, including shape. Field sandbur (Cenchrus pauciflorus) is a globally widespread invasive species capable of adapting to broad environmental conditions. However, its germination response to water and temperatu...
