Abstract
Paulownia is a family tree with over 20 species. Among the best known are: Paulownia tomentosa , Paulownia elongata , Paulownia fortunei , Paulownia australis . Due to its rapid increase of its roots, Paulownia is extremely suitable for forestation of areas at risk of erosion and re-forestation of burned forests. The purpose of the experiments presented in this paper, are to determine the homogeneous electric field’s influence on the acceleration of germination of Paulownia tomentosa seeds, at different exposure times/varying the exposure times. The results of the experiments proved that an accelerated germination was obtained. The best results were obtained when the exposures times of the plant to the homogeneous electric field was 20 minutes. The results of the experiments confirm the beneficial contribution of the electric field to the germination process. They also guide the authors of this paper to properly correlate their use with the corresponding classes of solar radiation intensity and humidity. Â
