| dc.description.abstract | The investigation on “Influence of seed sources, storage conditions and containers on seed germination and quality in Simarouba glauca” was conducted at College of Forestry, Sirsi. The study was laid by fallowing completely randomized with four replication and three factorial designs with tree replication for six seed sources. The Dharwad seed source was found highest with respect to seed and kernel weight (12.20, 28.98 g), seed and kernel density (44.84, 22.76). Davangere seed source exhibited highest volume and kernel (184.92, 53.00 mm3). However, Bengaluru seed source recorded the least for both seed and kernel parameters. Maximum germination was recorded in Dharwad seed source (93.5 %) and least was recorded in Davangere (84.25%). Highest seedling length was recorded in Dharwad seed source (19.1 cm) and Bengaluru seed source (17.1 cm) and least was in Bijapur seed source (6.25mm, 31.25 cm) and Bengaluru (5.86 mm, 28.15 cm). At 12 months after sowing, the shoot length and root length traits were highest in Dharwad and Bengaluru (31.50 cm, 30.00 cm) and lowest in seed source of Bijapur (25.65 cm, 41.20 cm). The highest seedling fresh weight and dry (79.35 g, 22.45 g) was recorded in Dharwad seed source followed by Bengaluru seed source (79.20 g, 22.17 g). At 150 days of storage, the highest germination per cent was recorded by cloth bag with cold condition and poly bag with cold condition in Bengaluru seed source (49.00 %, 43.92 %) , while the least was recorded in seed source of Davangere (44.40 %, 39.96 %). Thus the Dharwad and Bengaluru seed sources were most promising with respect to seed and seedling traits whereas Cloth bag with cold condition on were found superior for germination. The best seed sources needed to be conserved for further improvement work. | en_US |
