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

fine-textures soil having been proven to have a greater retention capacity of allelochemicals than coarse-textures soils. Also‚ allelopathic interactions include both promontory and inhibitory activities of phenolic allelochemicals and thus using seed germination as a bioassay parameter may be of little value.

bananas and nectarines combined. The seeds can vary from ¾ to 1 ½ inches in length and there can be anywhere from 100 to 500 seeds in a single fruit. A milky white latex rubber surrounds all of the seeds. Jackfruit only come in only two varieties but the names very from area to area the basic types are "Khuja" which is green‚ hard and smooth‚ with juicy pulp and small seeds and "Ghila" which is rough‚ soft‚ has thin pulp‚ isn’t very juicy‚ and has large seeds. This fruit has very picky growing conditions

causes it to create the best grain possible. Discussion: Vegetative: In this stage the plant germinates and gradually grows taller and leaves emerge at steady intervals. Germination: The root elongates through the seed coat and anchors into the soil. The primary leaf (coleoptile) also elongates and breaks through the seed coat. Early seedling growth: The first internode (mesocotyl) elongates and pushes the coleoptile through the soil. The seminal and secondary roots continue to develop‚

strong‚ cool‚ hot‚ dry or salty wind. It is better to grow in sheltered but full sunshine place. Staking and/or windbreak can decrease the damage to plants under strong wind. RAISING SEEDLINGS Seed Source: The seed must be from dependable source and sown as soon as possible. The remaining seeds must be sealed tightly and kept at cool (5 -10°

barley seeds‚ increased as the Aquasol concentration increased. This is with the exception of the solution with an initial Aquasol concentration of 0.40% in Table 1‚ which showed to have‚ on average‚ shorter shoot heights in comparison to the solution with 0.25% Aquasol. Ultimately‚ this indicates that the experiment had random and systematic errors that affected the accuracy‚ reliability‚ validity‚ and precision of the results. That being said‚ the results imply that‚ overall; barley seed germination

plants react with quickened rates of germination and general development when developed under charged electrodes. Similarly‚ Babbitt (1900) studied that the germination of seeds increments by half affected by blue light (gave by blue glass filters). Plant essentialness is expanded‚ development is quickened‚ stem and leaf development are enhanced‚ and yields are expanded. Gandhare and Patwardhan (2014) conducted a research about the Electric Field Adoption for Germination Improvement. The utilization of

and wheat seeds affect the plants growth rate and competition. The competition occurs when resources are limited to the plants. The two types of competitions that occur are interspecific and intraspecific. Interspecific is a competition between two different species and intraspecific is a competition between the plants own species. This experiment was conducted by taking 6 pots containing soil and placing certain amount of seeds‚ radish or/and wheat seeds‚ in each pot. A total of 384 seeds were needed

a species can produce chemicals that can prevent the growth or germination of another species. An example of this is Australian native plants such as Casuarinas and Eucalypts which produce allelochemicals that prevent competition of other plants. This is a form of a defence mechanism in order to survive. A negative effect of Allelopathy includes Patterson’s Curse. Patterson’s curse releases allelochemicals that inhibit the germination and growth of other plants. When plants are competing they compete
