female flowers grow out on racemes. Fruit is fleshy‚ red‚ acid‚ edible‚ ovoid‚ and about 8 millimeters long‚ single-seeded‚ and borne in grapelike pendant clusters (often paired)‚ wrinkled when dry‚ the seed becoming somewhat compressed. Note: The plant is very similar to Binayoyo (Antidesma ghaesembilla) differing in the general outline of the leaves which is broadly elliptic or obovate and being more rounded on both ends. The dorsal surface is beset with soft hairs. The corolla lobes of the male

INTRODUCTION A seed is a fertilized ovule that contains an embryo and transforms it into a new plant through the process of germination. Seeds remain inactive until conditions are right for germination. All seeds need water‚ oxygen‚ and proper temperature in order to germinate. However‚ some seeds require full light or darkness to germinate. According to Holm (1996) seeds have chemical inhibitors that prevent germination. A seed will not grow unless those inhibitors are destroyed by things like

Perceived restraints on the seed treatment market: * In any event‚ the benefits of seed treatment are most likely to be realized under certain circumstances and are subjective like: * Crops planted in mid-April to early-May‚ especially no-till or minimum till with abundant crop residue. * Narrow spectrum seed treatments are effective against specific genera of fungi that cause damping-off‚ such as Pythium‚ above. * Fields with a history of post-planting problems (minor soil crusting

for plant growth as well as crop physiology. Almost every plant process is affected directly or indirectly by water supply. Plants‚ as one of basic food sources‚ either in nature or cultivations‚ in their growing period‚ require water or at least moisture for germination. Certainly‚ most land plants are exposed to short or long term water stress at some times in their life cycle and have tended to develop some adaptive mechanisms for adapting to changing environmental conditions. Some plants may

of irradiation on the growth and germination of the corn was determined by planting ten seeds per treatment with varying doses. Four hills representing the different treatments were made in which the seeds were planted five centimetres apart. The plant was observed from July 15 to September 16‚ 2013. Results showed that seeds treated with 10 kr radiation obtained the highest average height of 128.90 cm with 100 % germination and survival. The seeds treated with 50 kr radiation obtained 0% survival

PLANT RESPONSES TROPISM is a biological phenomenon‚ indicating growth or turning movement of a biological organism‚ usually a plant‚ in response to an environmental stimulus. In tropisms‚ this response is dependent on the direction of the species. The word tropism comes from the Greek trope ("to turn" or "to change"). Tropisms are usually named for the stimulus involved and may be either positive (towards the stimulus) or negative (away from the stimulus). Phototropism is the growth response
