건조방법과 건조중 광질처리가 박 종자의 발아에 미치는 영향

Abstract

발아율을 높이기 위하여 처리된 종자는 판매를 위하여 건조되어야만 한다. 본 연구는 파종전 처리된 박 종자의 발아율을 최상으로 유지하기 위한 건조방법을 강구하고자 용자대목과 궁합을 공시재료로 건조방법, 건조 및 발아 과정에서 처리되는 광질과 온도가 발아에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 수행되었던 바 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 종자처리가 이루어진 박 종자는 <TEX>$35^{\circ}C$</TEX>에서 10시간 건조할 경우 처리 직전의 수분함량에 도달하였으며 건열 소독된 종자와 발아율에서는 차이가 없었다. 2) 파종전 처리된 박 종자는 암상태에서 건조하는 것보다는 적색광을 조사하면서 건조할 경우 초기발아율이 높았으며 적색광의 처리효과는 3개월 이상 지속되는 것으로 나타났다. 3) 적색광을 처리하면서 건조된 박 종자의 발아율은 발아과정에서 초적색광 처리로 현저히 억제된 반면, 적색광 또는 암상태에서는 치상 후 2일까지의 초기발아율이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 4) 암상태보다는 적색광 처리를 통하여 건조된 박 종자의 발아율은 발아온도 10 또는 <TEX>$20^{\circ}C$</TEX>에 비하여 고온인 3<TEX>$0^{\circ}C$</TEX>에서 높은 것으로 조사되었다. Seeds treated before sowing should be dried for their quality control on their sale or storage. The experiments were done to clarify the effect of drying, temperature and light quality treated during drying and germination on germination of gourd (Lagenaria siceraria Standl.) seeds. Drying of treated seeds was done at <TEX>$35^{\circ}C$</TEX>. After treated seeds were dried. their germination test was done at 10, 20 and <TEX>$30^{\circ}C$</TEX> on the condition of darkness, but with blue, red, far-red light and darkness as light quality treatments. FR-yongjadaemok and FR-kunghap were used as test cultivars and their daily germination rates were measured at treatment levels. Its presowing hydrated seeds were dried 10 hours at <TEX>$35^{\circ}C$</TEX> until reached below their original moisture content, and germination rate between the above dried seeds and the conventional dry-heated ones was not significantly different. At <TEX>$30^{\circ}C$</TEX> germination temperature, the treated seeds showed higher initial germination rate when dried under red light illumination than under darkness although their germination rates were nearly same at each temperature of 10 and <TEX>$20^{\circ}C$</TEX> being relatively low. Effect of the red light treatment during their drying continued to more than 3 months. Germination rate of the red light treated seeds during drying was reduced by far-red light treated during their germination. The initial rate to the second day after sowing were higher under red light and darkness treated during germination than under the two other lights.
