Several studies show that music possesses properties that affect the growth rate of plants in different ways. These properties may be the wavelength of the music‚ its frequency or even its tempo. According to a study conducted by Margaret E. Collins and John E. K. Foreman‚ entitled The Effect of Sound on the growth rate of plants (2001)‚ plants growth is directly affected by sounds of varying frequencies. They observed that when plants are exposed to pure tones‚ it affects the growth of the plant

potential performance of the seed or seed lot during germination and seedling emergence (Perry‚ 1978). Rapid and uniform germination are among the properties of vigorous seeds (Argerish & Bradford‚ 1989). Low vigour adversely affects such factors as optimal emergence‚ stress resistance and uniform growth of emergent seedlings (Patrick et al‚ 2000) and is thus of great economic importance. Seeds‚ which grow well under the ideal conditions of the germination test‚ often do not perform so well when planted

were observed for seven weeks. The percent germination and mortality rate‚ as well as the height (in cm) were obtained. Results showed that the control obtained the highest germination rate and average plant height while the lowest was obtained by the treatment which used the highest irradiation rate (50 kr). From the results it could be concluded that increasing the radiation rate can inhibit the growth in terms of height and lower the percent germination by inducing mutation. As the exposure of the

Plant 1/4” deep using sterile soil. This helps prevent disease and other problems. The tomato seeds will germinate best if the soil is kept between 80 to 90 degrees. Water lightly and keep the soil consistently moist until germination occurs. When ready to transplant be sure to harden the young plants o‑ by placing

The Effect of Salinity on Seed Germination 1) Abstract: Poor seeding growth can be the result of soil salinity. A study was done to examine the influence of NaCl salinity treatment on the germination and seeding grow of vigna radiata using different NaCl concentration 0 (control) ‚ 0.25 ‚ 0.5 ‚ 1.0 ‚ 1.75 . A graph was used to analyze the data obtained from the study. Important differences among the treatment were indicated as a result of this study. The germination percentage of vigna radiata

Title: Amount of Oxygen‚ Mung Beans (Vigna Radiata) Consume during Cellular Respiration Introduction: Cellular respiration is a catabolic reaction that refers to the process of converting chemical energy of organic molecules into a simplify form so it can be used immediately by organism. Glucose may be oxidized completely if sufficient oxygen is available‚ by the following equation: C6H12O6 + 36 ADP + 36Pi + 6O2(g) 6 H2O + 6 CO2(g) + 38 ATP + heat All organisms‚ including plants and animals
