Research was initiated to investigate germination characteristics and germination pattern of creeping bentgrass (CB, Agrostis palustris Huds.). Seven varieties of CB were evaluated in the study. An alternative condition for a CB germination test required by International Seed Testing Association (ISTA) was applied in the experiment, consisting of 8-hr light at $25^{\circ}C$ and 16-hr dark at $15^{\circ}C$ (ISTA conditions). Daily and cumulative germination patterns were measured and analyzed on a daily basis. Significant differences were observed in germination pattern, days to the first germination, days to 50% germination, days to 85% germination, and germination percentage. Germination rates were different among the treatments at the end of study. There were significantly considerable variations in early germination characteristics and germination pattern among CB varieties. The first germination in all entries was initiated between 4 and 5 DAS (days after seeding) under ISTA conditions. Generally, the first germination percentage was 5 to 25%. However, such Penn-series varieties as Penn A-1, Penn A-4 and Penncross were much more vigorous over others, resulting in 50 to 75% in the first germination percentage. It took 4 to 10 DAS in reaching to days to the 50% germination, being 5 days in difference among the varieties. Days to the 85% germination were 5.90 to 11.75 DAS under ISTA conditions, being 5.85 days in variety difference. It means 1 to 2 days after days to 50% germination. Penn A-1 was the fastest variety, while T-1 the slowest one. Considering days to the first germination, days to 85% germination, and germination pattern etc, Penn A-1, Penn A-4, Penncross and L-93 were regarded as excellent varieties under ISTA conditions. From this study, in-depth information on germination characteristics and pattern would be usefully applied for golf course design and construction, when established with CB.

This paper deals with the study on comparative efficacy and in vitro activity of cow urine and cow dung for controlling root rot disease of cucumber caused by Fusarium solani f. sp. cucurbitae Snyder & Hansen following slide germination and mycelial growth inhibition tests. Results showed that both germination of conidia and the percentage inhibition of mycelial growth decreased or suppressed and varied greatly with respect to different hour and days of incubation and kind of bio-matters. In between two bio-matters cow urine was found more effective than that of cow dung in conidial germination. No germination of conidia was recorded after one hour of incubation in any medium whereas in cow urine germination of conidia was not also observed even after 2 hours of incubation. After 7 hours of incubation out of 200 conidia of F. solani f. sp. cucurbitae, 28 in cow urine and 64 in cow dung were germinated while in control a total germinated conidia was 185. In case of percentage inhibition of conidial germination the highest percentage(100%) was recorded in cow urine after 2 hours of incubation followed by 3 hours(96.0%), 4 hours(91.0%) and 6 hours(89.4%). During the test on inhibition of mycelial growth, the highest percentage(62.8%) was recorded in cow urine potato dextrose agar(CUPDA) medium tested after 4 days of incubation, followed by 3 days(60.5%), 5 days(56.5%) and 2 days(55.0%). In this test cow dung potato dextrose agar(CDPDA) had less efficacy in suppression of the percentage inhibition of mycelial growth.

Quercus floribunda (Tilonj oak) is among the five species of Quercus and an evergreen tree found in Kumaun Himalayan region. Timing of germination is a crucial event determining the success of seedling establishment and survival. The aims of the study were to investigate the effect of sowing date on the germination and morphological responses of Tilonj oak (Quercus floribunda), cultivated during the month of August-September, with supplementary irrigation. The experiment was conducted by sowing seeds at two dates with one month interval in glass house conditions at DSB Campus, Nainital, Uttarakhand, India. Present study revealed that higher germination percentage (46.67 %) was recorded at sowing time $S_2$ as compared to the sowing time $S_1$ (32.86 %). Germination percentage as well as seedling growth were affected by sowing date though the differences were insignificant. At both the sowing dates, highest germination percentage was recorded for large seeds (32.86-46.67 %) followed by medium (31.43-33.33 %) and lowest germination (6.67-7.14 %) was recorded for small size seeds. In all parameters assessed, sowing time $S_2$ had the best performance in combination with large seed size. Thus, September is suitable month for best germination, growth and seedling vigour and large seed size is recommended to silviculturists and tree planters. The information on seed germination and seedling growth is vital both for conservation and rehabilitation of degraded lands.

Loranthus tanakae (Franch. & Sav.) is an endangered species of mistletoe, distributed in Korean peninsula. The objective of our research is to determine the effect of storage duration and conditions [air flow (AF) and air tight (AT)] at different temperatures for survivability and germination of mistletoe seeds, and also to monitor the effect of seed scarification on germination in vitro. The result revealed that the seeds stored in natural conditions (no stratification) showed highest survival rate of 100% and retained up to 93.3% even after two months of storage in natural conditions and showed higher germination percentage (90%) compare to after ripened seeds. However, the seed stored at $0^{\circ}C$ decreased the germination percentage (ranged from 63 to 73%). Therefore, it can be confirmed that mistletoe does not need after ripened treatment to promote germination. Our research also showed that the storage of L. tanaka seeds in freezing temperatures of $-20^{\circ}C$ and in room temperature for long time either in AT or AF conditions caused the loss of survival and germination rate. On the other hand, the chemical scarification (0.01N HCl incubation for 12 hrs. at $38^{\circ}C$) method was proven more effective to enhance germination percentage of L. tanakae. Regarding the temperature regime, $22^{\circ}C$ showed early germination of mistletoe seeds in vitro.

This study was carried out to establish optimal conditions for breaking dormancy of Agastache rugosa O. Kuntze seeds. A series of experiments according to seed maturity and treatment with plant growth regulators were performed to improve germination percentage and synchronize germination of the seeds. In addition, it was conducted to test whether the useful effect of seed treatment before sowing leads to healthy seedling and early vigorous growth. The average seed size was 1.85 mm (length) × 0.82 mm(width). The seed size was much smaller than other vegetable seeds. Seeds colorappeared dark brown, the shape of the seeds was oval and the weight of 1,000seeds was 352.8 mg. The optimum germination temperature was 22℃. Light exposure during germination did not affect germination promotion, suggesting that A. rugosa seeds are a kind of dark germinating seeds. Seed dormancy lasted for 40 days after harvesting, and GA3 treatment of dormant seeds could break dormancy. There were significant differences in germination percentage and rate according to the maturity of seeds. The germination percentage of mature seeds was 10 - 18% higher than that of immature seeds, and germination rate was 2 days faster. GA3 treatment during growth regulator treatment improved germinability, but BAP or ethephone treatment did not. The optimal growth regulator concentration of for germination was the combination treatment of 100 mM GA3 ＋ 100 mM BAP.

이탈리안라이그래스의 발아기 내염성에 대한 기초자료를 얻고자 온도가 $25^{\circ}C$, 2$0^{\circ}C$ 및 15$^{\circ}C$인 조건에서 NaCl의 농도를 350mM까지 8개의 수준으로 조절하여 2배체형의 9품종과 4배체형의 11품종을 치상하여 발아상태를 조사하였다. 1. 발아율은 온도, NaCl의 농도 그리고 품종들에 따라 각각 유의적인 차이가 인정되었다. 2. NaCl의 무처리에서 품종들의 발아율은 2$0^{\circ}C$에서 90.1%로 $25^{\circ}C$에서의 87.8%나 15$^{\circ}C$에서의 87.5%보다 높았다. 3. 품종들의 평균발아율은 NaCl의 농도가 200mM에서 감소하기 시작하였으며 감소농도는 2$0^{\circ}C$에서 15$^{\circ}C$나 $25^{\circ}C$보다 높았다. 4. 2$0^{\circ}C$에서 품종들의 발아속도는 NaCl의 농도가 높아질수록 늦어졌고 발아율도 낮았다. 5. 평균발아일수는 온도가 낮고 NaCl의 농도가 높아질수록 점차 길어졌다. 6. 2배체형은 4배체형보다 온도와 NaCl의 농도에 관계없이 발아율이 높았으며 평균발아일수는 짧았다.

본 연구는 벼 무논 및 담수직파 시 입모향상을 위해 철분코팅종자와 일반종자에 대한 발아특성 및 담수깊이에 따른 초기 입모영향을 구명한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 철분코팅종자는 일반종자보다 발아초기에는 발아율이 높았으나 후기에는 일반종자의 발아율과 비슷하였다. 그 결과 철분코팅종자가 일반종자에 비해 발아속도가 빠르고 평균 발아일수가 짧았다. 철분코팅종자를 상온종자창고에 보관시 1년이 지난 후 발아율은 보관당시보다 15.3~21.6% 감소되어 가능한 철분코팅 종자는 1년 이내에 사용하는 것이 바람직하였다. 또한 담수직파조건에서 철분코팅 종자는 일반종자에 비해 깊은 수심에도 출아율이 높고, 뜬묘비율도 낮을 뿐만 아니라 모 충실도가 높아 담수직파 시 철분코팅종자를 사용하는 것이 초기입모를 향상시킬 수 있는 방법이 될 수 있다.

돌피(Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) Beauv.) 종자는 산포 직후 상온에서 휴면상태로 발아가 억제되고 있으나 저장기간이 지나면서 휴면이 타파되어 7~17개월후에 16~40$^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 85~95%의 최대발아율을 나타내었다. 돌피종자가 10~70% 발아하는데 요구되는 적산온도는 539~1,279Kh (degree kelvinXhours)이며 적산온도 분포함수인 F($\theta$)=1-[3D-3($\theta$-m+D)3+1]-1/2와 일치하였고 m과 D의 값은 각각 935Kh와 555kh로 나타났다. 2$^{\circ}C$에서 냉습처리한 후, 16~40$^{\circ}C$의 항온 조건하에 4$^{\circ}C$ 간격으로 처리한 돌피종자는 최종발아율과 발아속도가 대조구에 비해 증가하였다. IT regime에 있어서는 12$^{\circ}C$부터 발아속도가 증가하여 24$^{\circ}C$에서 최종발아율이 80%가 되었으며, DT regime은 24$^{\circ}C$에서 0$^{\circ}C$로 하강하는 동안 12$^{\circ}C$에서부터 발아가 시작되었으며(발아율 10%), 8$^{\circ}C$에서 20%의 최종발아율을 나타내었고 4$^{\circ}C$부터는 2차 휴면이 유도되었다. 돌피종자는 비교적 넓은 발아기능 온도범위를 가지고 있으며 개체군내의 발아시기조절에 의해 다양한 환경변화에서도 잘 적응할 수 있으며 변온과 겨울의 저온에 의해 휴면이 타파되고 봄의 기온상승과 함께 발아하는 봄발아형 종자임을 알 수 있었다.

Toxic effert of water extract from leaves of Pinus rigida and some phenolic compounds on the seeds germination of Raphanus sativus var. hortensis for. acanthiformis Makino has been studied. There was little difference of germination percentage among the pH value of leaf extract (pH3~9). The germination percentage drastically with increased concentration level of leaf extract at about 60 percent. Seeds gemination of Raphanus sativus var. hortensis for. acanthiformis Makino inhibited severely by caffeic acid, ferulic acid and p-coumaric acid at M, but the germination percentage was higher than that of the control group in vanillic acid. In electrophoresis, there was no differences at earlier seedling stage of protein band between allelochemical treated and non-treated group, but in late stage, two protein band near 58kd and 27kd did not appeared in the toxic affected group. In case of caffeic acid treatment, two protein band near 58kd and 27kd did not found at late stage too.
