Abstract

Seed germination test done in laboratory does not coincide with field emergence in general. The experiments were carried out to examine the effect of priming and $GA_3$, treatment to seeds of Platycodon grandiflorum; Codonopsis lanceolata and C. pilosula on lapsed time to first seedling emergence, seedling emergence, morphological characters and growth and the cause of poor emergence of C. pilosula. No-treatment as Control (water), priming or $GA_3$ treatment was done with only distilled water for 2 days, $CA(NO_3)_2$ 150 mM for 2 days or $GA_3$ 0.1 mM for 3 days, respectively. Seedling emergence rate was counted every 2 days but morphological characters and dry weight of shoot and root were measured on 38 days after sowing. Their internal seed structures were examined with Scanning Electron Microscope. C. pilosula had poorer seedling emergence rate than P grandiflorum and C. lanceolata showing nearly same rate: Compared to the other treatment (s) P. grandiflorum displayed higher rate in priming and $GA_3$, treatments but C. lanceolata or C. pilosula did the greatest rate in only $GA_3$ or priming treatment, respectively. $GA_3$ treatment to seeds of P. grandiflorum and C. lanceolata shortened the lapsed time to seedling emergence in comparison with Control, 2-days water imbibition before sowing. In all the species plant height and number of leaves per seedling became shorter and less in priming treatment than the other treatments except plant height of C. Pilosula while their hypocotyl length was nearly same in all treatments. Although priming treatment had nearly similar effect to morphological characters, $GA_3$ treatment forced greater shoot, root and aftermath total dry weight per seedling. Poor seedling emergence of C. pilosula was caused by its seed defect like cleavage or lack of embryo, poor development of embryo and endosperm or their separation.

발아율을 증가시키기 위하여 실험실에서 수행된 초롱꽃과 약용작물의 종자처리(種子處理)가 출아율(出芽率)과 유묘생장(幼苗生長)을 촉진할 수 있는가를 검토하기 위하여 도라지, 더덕 및 만삼 종자를 파종 전 증류수에 2일간 침지하거나, $Ca(NO_3)_2$ 150 mM에 2일간 priming 또는 $GA_3$ 0.1 mM에 3일간 침지한 3개(個) 처리(處理)로 구분하여 유묘 출아율(幼苗 出芽率)과 파종 38일 후에 유묘생장(幼苗生長)을 조사하였으며 만삼의 출아율(出芽率)이 낮은 원인을 구명하기 위하여 전자현미경으로 종자의 내부구조를 관찰하였던 바 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 유묘 출아율(幼苗 出芽率)에서 도라지는 Priming과 $GA_3$ 처리, 더덕은 $GA_3$ 처리, 만삼은 priming처리에서 증류수로 침지 처리하는 것보다 높았고, 출아소요일수(出芽所要日數)도 도라지와 더덕은 대조구(對照區)에 비하여 $GA_3$처리로 단축되었다. 2. 공시종(供試種) 모두 하경축장(下經軸長)은 처리간 차이가 없었던 반면, 도라지와 더덕은 priming처리로 초장(草長)은 짧고 주당엽수(株當葉數)도 적었으나 만삼은 차이가 없었다. 3. 지상부중, 근중(地上部重, 根重) 또는 주당 건물중(株當 乾物重)은 대조구(對照區)에 비하여 $GA_3$ 처리에서 높은 반면, priming 처리에서 낮았다. 4. 만삼의 출아율저조원인(出芽率低調原因)은 무경(無經), 천(賤)의 형태적(形態的) 결함(缺陷) 등 종자구조에서 비롯되는 것으로 분석되었다.
