Abstract
Removing the operculum or placing dormant sugarbeet fruits with the operculum downward on watered filter paper resulted in an increase in germination. The importance of the operculum position was reduced under optimal watering conditions for germination. The amount of imbibed water and the water layer surrounding the fruits increased with increasing amounts of bedding water. An inverse relationship between fruit germination percentage and imbibition was established. This was improved by taking into account the adhering water film.
