Germination and seedling growth of corn (Zea mays l.) under varying levels of copper and zinc
The heavy metal tolerance in corn (Zea mays L.) var. ‘Neelum’ was assessed at germination and seedling growth after having subjected it to different concentrations of CuSO4 and ZnSO4. Germination was not affected by any of the metal tested, whereas initial growth was strongly inhibited by increasing concentrations of ZnSO4. Seedlings developed toxicity symptoms in the presence of both metals but ...

Germination and early plant development of ten plant species exposed to TiO2 and CeO2 nanoparticles
Ten agronomic plant species were exposed to different concentrations of nano titanium dioxide (nTiO2) or nano cerium oxide (nCeO2) (0, 250 µg/mL, 500 µg/mL and 1000 µg/mL) to examine potential effects on germination and early seedling development. We modified a standard test protocol developed for soluble chemicals (OPPTS 850.4200) to determine if such an approach might be useful for screening ...

PROPAGATION OF CUTTINGS USING EH-POWERGROUND ELECTRIC HEATING MATS
PROPAGATION OF CUTTINGS USING EH-POWERGROUND ELECTRIC HEATING MATS Electric heating mats are used to increase the rooting and germination rate of cuttings. They are manufactured specifically for this purpose and made in sizes to suit new or existing growing beds. The purpose of using heat specifically in the root zone of cuttings is to induce dormancy in the upper vegetative part and to ...
