Abstract

|
|
In the view of difficulty in seed germination of celery during the summer high temperature season, a study was conducted with N^6-benayladenine(BA) to see any promotiue influence of the germination of celery var. Cornel #619 seeds and its practical value when applied at various concentrations.
1. The seed-bed treatment of the 2ppm or its low levels of BA showed promoted germination of the seeds and shortened mean number of days necessary for germination, while delayed germination was observed if the 5ppm was applied. In control plots germination did not take place.
2. The dipping treatment for 2 hours in the 5ppm, 1 hour in the 10ppm and 30 minutes in the 20ppm also showed increased rate of seed germination on the 10th and 21st day periods.
3. A seed dipping treatment of short period no longer than 1 hour in the 10ppm degree and 30 minutes in the 20ppm degree not only restores io low rate germination due to the summer high temperature in this country, but also has possible practical use of promoting germination of celery seeds.
