Abstract

This text was analyzed and investigated the morphological character, production time and germination characteristic of seed that collect in Chungnam, in order to offer the basic informations for slope restoration and revegetation using Indigofera amblyantha of wild shrub. Legume was cylindrical type and length 31.5mm, width 2.5mm, and seed number of per legume was full ripe 5.5, unripe 0.9. Seed was elliptical type and length 2.4mm, width 1.7mm, and weight of 1,000 seeds was 5.9g. Because seed matured within December and next year January, optimum time of seed production was in mid of January. In the treatment $H_2SO_4$ of 15 minutes, seed germination rate was the highest as 91.0%, and seed germination time (days) was the shortest as 6.7 days. Seed germination time by temperature was the shortest from $25^{\circ}C$. Therefore, seed germination of Indigofera amblyantha was very useful in the treatment $H_2SO_4$ of 15 minutes from $25^{\circ}C$ temperature.
