Abstract
Seeds of Rigitaeda pine tree(Pinus rigida${\times}$P. taeda) was primed with polyethylene glycol(PEG-6000) under different PEG concentrations, treatment period, and temperatures to test uniformity of germination. Coated seeds and PEG treated seeds were sown to compare germination, emergence, establishment, and seedling growth. The results obtained are summarized as follows : 1. As the concentration of PEG increased, as total germination percentage of pine tree was increased. Total germination percentage of pine tree seeds primed with PEG at 15 or $20^{\circ}C$ was better than the seeds treated at $10^{\circ}C$ compared to untreated seeds. 2. Germination rate was improved as primed period long and level of PEG concentration high. 3. Maximum germination rate was high with long PEG treatment period, and markedly improved when the seeds were primed at $20^{\circ}C$ 4. Priming with PEG at $20^{\circ}C$ for 12 days reduced time taken for germination. 5. Osmoconditioned seeds accelerated germination under drought condition with injurious effect of coated seeds by some chemicals. 6. There were much differences in establishment and dry matter production between drill and oversowing method, and primed seeds showed better performances than the coated seeds. Coating effects to seeds were better under drought soil condition rather than moderate moisture condition.
리기테다 소나무 종자(種子)에 삼투압처리 및 피복(被覆)처리를 하여 균일(均一)한 발아(發芽)와 유묘생육(幼苗生育)을 촉진(促進)하기 위하여 이들 처리(處理) 종자(種子)의 발아(發芽)와 유식물(幼植物) 생육(生育)을 비교(比較) 검토(檢討)하였다. 1. Polyethylene glycol(PEG) 처리농도가 높아질수록 총발아율(TGP)도 높아졌으며 $10^{\circ}C$보다는 $15^{\circ}C$나 $20^{\circ}C$에서 총발아율이 향상되었다. 2. PEG처리기간이 길수록 또한 처리농도가 높을수록 발아속도(GR)가 양호하였으며, 처리농도와 온도간에는 상호 상관관계가 인정되지 않았다. 3. 최대 발아속도(MGR)는 PEG처리기간이 길수록 높았으며, $20^{\circ}C$에서 더욱 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 4. $20^{\circ}C$에서 12일간 PEG 처리시 약 2일 정도의 발아기간(發芽期間) 단축효과가 있었다. 5. PEG 처리는 저수분상태(低水分狀態) 하에서도 발아가 양호하였으며, 피복처리(被覆處理)된 종자는 약해(藥害)로 인한 발아(發芽) 장애현상(障碍現象)이 나타났다. 6. 조파(條播)와 직파(直播)간에는 건물생산량(乾物生產量)에 큰 차이가 있었으며, PEG 처리가 가장 양호한 성적을 보여 주었다. 적당한 토양수분 상태(포장용수량의 약 75%)보다 건조한 토양조건(포장용수량의 약 50%)에서 피복처리효과가 더욱 뚜렷하였다.
