Principal Component Analysis towards viability of Cicer arietinumseeds using electric field under laboratory condition
Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
Abstract:The impact of power lines on the crops are well established from different observations over the globe. In this work we have carried out an experiment in laboratory to observe the influence of electric field on Cicer arietinum seeds. The seeds are exposed to electric field ranges 5 - 25 volt for an interval of 20 minutes. It is noted that the germination percentage is decreased for the exposure time of 120 minutes irrespective of electric field. Treated dose of 10 volt/60 minute is found to be optimum from Principal Component Analysis of the physiological and biochemical characteristics of Cicer arietinum seeds. Keywords:Cicer arietinum, germination, electric field, Principal Component Analysis
