The Effect of Different Treatments on Seed Dormancy Breaking and Germination of Polygonum Convolvulus

Journal Title: International Journal of Farming and Allied Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 6

Abstract

The study of weeds and providing their control and management strategies is usually associated with some problem due to weed seed dormancy and germination requirements. One of the important weeds with deep dormancy is Black bindweed (Polygonum convolvulus). In this present study in order to obtain appropriate treatment to eliminate seed dormancy gibberellic acid (GA), scarification + GA, guanine, sulfuric acid + temperature and sulfuric acid + guanine were examined in applied as separate experiments. All the experiment were conducted as factorial based on a complete randomized block design (CRD) with three replications. The results showed that Polygonum convolvulus seed treatment with sulfuric acid for 30 minutes following guanine 0.0001 M for three hours is the best method to break Polygonum convolvulus seed dormancy.
