Abstract
The rate of oxygen consumption by germinating seeds of Lupinus albus and of Zea mays was studied as a function of temperature (7-26 degrees C.). The Warburg manometer technique was used, with slight modifications. Above and below a critical temperature at 19.5 degrees C. the temperature characteristic for oxygen consumption by Lupinus albus was found to be micro = 11,700+/- and 16,600 respectively. The same critical temperature was encountered in the case of Zea mays, with temperature characteristics micro = 13,100+/- above and micro = 21,050 below that temperature.
