experiment is designed to test the allelopathy of two different treatments‚ Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus cinerea) and Lemon (Citrus limon). The two treatments will be tested on radish seeds (Raphanus sativus) to investigate the effect of the treatments on the germination of the radish seeds. Allelopathy is the beneficial or harmful effects that one plant has on another plant by the release of chemicals. Allelopathy studies the interactions among plants‚ fungi‚ algae and bacteria with the organisms living in

IRP 3: Germination Introduction: Germination is the process of which a plant of fungus emerges from its seed or spore. Germination involves activating the seed’s metabolism‚ which is done through numerous stages. The fist stage involves the rehydrating the cell by absorbing water. This allows the cell to become metabolically active. After water absorption‚ gibberellin is produced in the cotyledon of the seed. The enzyme gibberellin stimulates the production of amylase‚ which catalyzes the

Natural Acid Rain Effect on Tomato Seed Germination Qsanet Tekie Mrs. Schneider AP Environmental Science 2nd Period 15 February 2014 Manufactured vs Natural Acid Rain Effect on Tomato Seed Germination Introduction The purpose of my experiment is to see the effects of different types of acid rain on tomato see germination. Specifically‚ I am testing man-made acid rain versus natural rain water to see if one inhibits the seed germination more than the

Germination is the process by which a plant grows from a seed. The most common example of germination is the sprouting of a seedling from a seed of an angiosperm or gymnosperm. However the growth of a sporeling from a spore‚ for example the growth of hyphae from fungal spores‚ is also germination. In a more general sense‚ germination can be simply anything expanding into greater being from a small existence or germ‚ a method that is commonly used by many seed germination projects. Seed germination

Ishmael E. Turrecha PROPOSAL I. PROBLEM What is the role of sunlight on the germination of Vigna radiata (Mung bean) seed? II. TITLE The role of sunlight on the germination of Vigna radiata seed. III. RATIONALE The germination of the seed is a physiological event. The light is one of the most important environmental factors for germination of seeds. The seeds of many species do not germinate in the dark. Vigna radiata seed or Mung bean seed as it commonly called will be used for the study

The effect of salt concentration on grass growth Abstract Our aim was to test the effect of different salinities on the growth of plants which what we did was measured different amounts of salt dissolved into 2 litres of water‚ watered the plant once with the salt water then for 9 days with pure ware. I found with my investigation that the less the salt‚ the more the growth of the plant. My aim was achieved by measuring the 5 fastest geminating (out of 20) and to measure the differences in growth

The Effects of Temperature on Basil Germination Abstract: Successful germination depends on many different factors. The amount of moisture‚ the type of seed‚ the temperature of the room‚ and how long the seeds are left in the specific environment‚ these factors are the most common. This paper focuses on the temperature of the seeds‚ specifically basil seeds. Basil seeds were placed on a damp towel‚ in two seperate Petri dish‚ and one was put in a room‚ to adjust to the temperature‚ and the

The effects of pH on mung beans Gloria Cheng Winsy Cheung Lily Wong Christine Yen January 15‚ 1998 Abstract This experiment explores how different pH environments affect the growth of mung beans. The mung beans were grown in water with various pH levels‚ consisted of pH levels 5‚ 6‚ 7‚ 8‚ and 9. A replicated design was used consisting of 3 runs for each pH level. The following results are listed in order of pH levels allowing most growth to least growth of the mung beans: 7‚ 8‚ 6‚ 5‚ and 9. These
