in order to determination of optimum quantity of seed pelleting materials due to sugar beet monogerm seed size. this study was carried out in seed technology department during 1997-1998. monogerm cultiver 9597 seed lot (300kg) was firstly graded by 7 round sieves and then 7 rectangle sieves graded each bound. some factors such as germination , monogermity and proportionate seed pelleting materi...

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...

to determine the effect of seed size of sugar beet cultivars on germination and seedling vigor, a study was conducted as a 4×6 factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with 4 replications at seed and plant certification and registration institute, karaj in 2013. the treatments were toucan, dorotea, rasta, sharif, pars, and torbat cultivars and four seed width sizes including 2...

the effects of priming treatment using five osmotic solutions (peg, manitol, kno3, kh2po4 and combination of two salts) in six osmotic potentials (-1 to -1.5 mpa) was studied on germination percentage, rate and uniformity of melon seeds. the best results were obtained with high concentrations of kno3 and lower concentrations of manitol. mean germination time of melon seeds in 19°c was preceeded...

the allelopathic potential of different concentrations (0, 5 %, 10 %, 20 % and 40%) of medicago sativa shoot extracts were assayed on germination and radicle growth of four weed species( amaranthus hybridus, amaranthus albus, solanum nigrum and chenopodium album) in a laboratory experiment as completely randomized factorial with 3 replications. the results showed that, final germination percent...

Several pre-germination treatments were given to Cyclamen persicum Mill. seed with the objective of improving germination percentage, speed, and uniformity. Soaking seed in water and in gibberellic acid improved germination speed, but the latter reduced survival. Etridiozole, benomyl, thiram, and sodium hypochlorite treatments did not reduce or delay germination as has been reported elsewhere, ...

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...
