in order to study effect of seed weight on germination and growth of wheat seedling, an experiment in seed technology laboratory of aboureihan paradise university of tehran in 2005 has been done. in this experiment, at first stage, the seeds separated by longitude step, latitude step and set frequency parameters of gravity separator set. in second stage, 10 treatments of 1000 seed weight entere...

the allelopathic effect of weeds frequently inhibited the germination and seedling growth of crops. johnsongrass (sorghum halepens) is known to contain water-soluble substances that are allelopathic. to identify the allelopathic effect of johnsongrass, the effect of different aqueous extracts (0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 g l-1) obtained from roots and leaves of johnsongrass on the seed germinat...

ABSTRACT- Seed germination and early seedling growth are critical stages for plants establishment and production, particularly under salinity conditions. Exogenous application of silicon (Si) can enhance germination as well as seedling growth. In this experiment, the effect of priming with Si (0, 0.75, 1.5 and 2.25 mM sodium silicate) on seed germination and seedling growth under NaCl (0, 100 a...

abstract heterotrophic seedling growth has described as the product of the following dynamic and to transmit seed reserves and the conversion efficiency of mobilized seed reserves to seedling tissue. this research was carried out to evaluate germination and seedling growth of wheat seed (n8019) in the form of combined analysis design with crd arrangement. treatments consisted of 4 levels of wat...

the main objective of this study was using of canonical correlation analysis (cca) to find relations between 15 different variables of seed emergence and seedling growth related characteristics of seven important crop that were classified in three groups. the studied groups of variables were included physical characteristics (seed weight, seed length, seed density, water absorption and water co...

an investigation was initiated to examine the effects of nanoscale titanium dioxide particles on plant growth and development. in view of the widespread cultivation of canola in iran and in other parts of the globe and in view of the potential influence of titanium on its growth, this plant was chosen as the model system. canola seeds were separately treated with different concentrations of nan...

This research was conducted to assessment effect of different concentrations of sodium hypochlorite along several times on quantitative parameters of wheat seeds affected by Aspergillus flavus fungus via factorial experiment according randomized complete block design with four replications. The treatments consisted four concentrations of sodium hypochlorite or NaClO (C1= 2%, C2= 4%, C3= 6%, and...
