Abstract

Indigofera zollingeriana is one of Indigofera species distributed in Indonesia and known as forage crop. Seed is an important factor which influences cultivation of I. zollingeriana due to low seed germination. The objective of the research was to determine the effect of different pre-treatment as chemical scarification (98% of H2SO4, 0.3% of KNO3, glycerine (C3H8O3) at 70oC), hot water at 70oC with different duration of immersion or soaking and mechanical scarification using sand paper on I. zollingeriana’s seed germination. Pre-treatment had significant differences and improved germination percentage, germination speed index and shoot length. The positive correlation was noted between germination percentage and germination speed index.

Indigofera zollingeriana'nın Tohum Çimlenmesinde Ön İşlem Etkisinin İyileştirilmesi

Abstract

Indigofera zollingeriana, Endonezya'da dağılış gösteren ve yem bitkisi olarak bilinen Indigofera türlerinden biridir. Endonezya’da I. zollingeriana'nın yetiştiriciliğini etkileyen en önemli faktör, tohumundaki düşük çimlenme oranıdır. Bu çalışmada, I. zollingeriana tohumlarında, farklı sürelerde kimyasal uygulamalarının (%98’lik H2SO4, %0.3’lük KNO3, 60oC’lik C3H8O3 çözelti), 70oC’lık sıcak su ve zımpara kâğıdı ile tohumu mekanik olarak aşındırma şeklinde yapılan çimlendirme ön uygulamalarının etkilerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre; ön uygulamalarda çimlenme yüzdesi, çimlenme hızı endeksi ve sürgün uzunluğu bakımından önemli farklılıklar gözlenmiş olup, incelenen parametrelerde aynı zamanda artış da tespit edilmiştir. Çimlenme yüzdesi ile çimlenme hızı endeksi arasında pozitif korelasyon saptanmıştır.
