Minimum, optimum, and maximum temperatures required for germination of Onion, Radish, Tomato, and Pepper
Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Germination performance of four cool and worm season crops namely Onion, Radish, Tomato, and Pepper conducted in incubators at 5, 15, 25, and 35oC temperatures, arranged with Split Fact-RCBD. The obtained results revealed germination failure of Tomato and Pepper at 5oC. Better germination observed in Radish seeds at 5oC than Onion. Optimal temperatures based on final germination percentages for Onion, Radish and Pepper (15oC) and 25oC for tomato. On basis of peak germination percentages the optimal temperature of Onion and Tomato is 20oC and for Radish and Pepper is 15oC. All investigated crops revealed germination at maximum temperature 35oC.
