摘要
A germination experiment of pre-treated seeds of Melia azedarach was conducted in the nursery of Forestry and Wood Technology Discipline,Khulna University,Bangladesh.Matured seeds of Melia azedarach were collected from healthy trees of National Botanical Garden,Bangladesh and were treated with five pre-sowing treatments（control,immersion in cold water,immersion in hot water,scarification with sand paper,and immersion in concentrated H2SO4） on seed germination.Results revealed that the germination rates of pre-sowing treated seeds were significantly increased compared to those in control,except for cold water treatment.The highest germination success（80%） was found in scarification with sand paper,followed by 74% and 69% in immersion in H2SO4 and hot water treatment,respectively.Germination started on 8-11 days and completed on 20-21 days of the germination period in all cases.Analysis of variance showed the significance difference in germination success among the treatments but no significance difference in germination period among the treatment.Hot water treatment may be recommended on seed germination of the species in rural Bangladesh.
在孟加拉Khulna大学森林和木材技术学科苗圃,调查了预处理的苦楝种子的萌发情况。成熟的苦楝种子采自国家植物园内的健康植株,对种子进行了5 种处理(对照,冷水浸泡,热水浸泡,砂纸破皮和浓硫酸浸泡)。结果表明,除了冷水浸泡外,其它播种预处理的种子萌发率显著高于对照种子。砂纸破皮处理的种子萌发率最高(80%),浓硫酸浸泡和热水浸泡的种子萌发率分别是74%和69%。苦楝种子在第8～11天开始萌发,萌发周期是20～21天。方差分析表明,预处理显著影响种子萌发率,但对萌发周期没有显著影响。推荐用热水浸泡处理种植在孟加拉农村的苦楝种子促进萌发。图2表2参30。
