ThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF PRE-SOWING SEED TREATMENTS ON GERMINATION AND GROWTH OF SEEDLINGS OF CUSTARD APPLE ( Annona Squamosa Linn.)(AAU, Anand, 1997-03) Patel, Nitin N.; JOSHI, K. I.An experiment was laid cut in Completely Randomized Design with two factors having five repetitions but the Statistical analysis of data through parametric method (ANOVA) snowed large variation (high Cv per cent) in each trail. Therefore data were analysed using non parametric method (Rank analysis). Custard apple seeds were soaked in distilled water and cattle-dung for 24 hours and m concentrated H2SO4 for 2 and 4 minutes and then were dried on gunny bag for 12 hours. Thereafter the seeds were soaked in different concentration of gibberellic acid viz,. 250 and 500ppm for 12 hours and then were dried on gunny bag for 12 hours. Again treated seeds were soaked in gibberallic acid solution for 12 hours. All the treatments were tried in respect to germination, plumule length, radicle length and number of secondary roots in the laboratory experiment, where as germination, seedling height, number of leaves and stem thickness in the pot experiment.ThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF PRE-SOWING SEED TREATMENTS ON GERMINATION AND GROWTH OF SEEDLINGS OF CUSTARD APPLE ( Annona Squamosa Linn.)(AAU, Anand, 1997) Patel, Nitin N.; JOSHI, K. I.The present experiment was carried out in the laboratory as well as at the nursery of the horticulture section, B.A. College of Agriculture, Anand during the year 1996. An experiment, was laid cut in Completely Randomized Design with two factors having five repetitions but the statistical analysis of data through parametric method (ANOVA) showed large variation (high Cv per cent) in each trair. Therefore data were analysed using nonparametric method (Rank analysis).
