Bплив ранньовесняних строків сівби насіння ромашки лікарської на польову схожість та виживання рослин в умовах правобережного лісостепу України

Abstract

An important place in the effective technology of growing medicinal chamomile (Matricaria recutita L.) is occupied by the early spring sowing period. Therefore, they provide a dense emergence of seeds, as evidenced by many conducted scientific studies in the field of plant breeding. The article presents the results of experimental research on the effect of early spring sowing dates of medicinal chamomile on field seed germination and plant survival. It was established that medicinal chamomile plants depended on weather and climatic conditions, sufficient amount of moisture in the soil, soil crust, which as a result led to variation in the passage of growth and development phases, and therefore, a question arose in the study of agrotechnical techniques aimed at the productivity of medicinal raw materials. The cultivation of tetraploid of medicinal chamomile variety Perlyna Lisostepu and Zloty Lan in the conditions of the Right-Bank Forest-Steppe of Ukraine during the period of research (2018-2023) in the early spring sowing period was studied. It was established that the investigated varieties of medicinal chamomile had the highest field germination of seeds due to the content of productive moisture. The highest field seed germination rates of 74.16% were recorded during the early spring (15-18.04) sowing period of the Perlyna Lisostepu variety, and the Zloty Lan variety was 72.68%, respectively. According to six-year research data, the highest field seed germination of 68.00% on the control variant (1-3.04) according to the sowing dates was noted in the Perlyna Lisostepu variety, and the lowest 67.00% – in the Zloty Lan variety. The maximum rate of plant survival at the end of the growing season was 88.96%, which was obtained in the variant of the early spring (15-18.04) sowing period of the Perlyna Lisostepu variety, the minimum rate was 69.15% in the control (1-3.04) of the Zloty Lan variety. The germination rate on average over six years exceeded the control by 6.14%, and the survival of chamomile plants on average over the years of research exceeded the control option by 1.5%. The difference in factors was insignificant (2-3%)
