RAMOS, RINIER A., Percentage Germination And Early Growth Response of Newly Harvested Asparagus Seeds Subjected To Different Degree of Electric Current", Applied Research 4, Don Severino Agricultural College, Indang, Cavite, March 1996. Adviser: Prof. Josefino A. Vlado
The study “Percentage Germination a and Early Growth Response of Newly Harvested Asparagus Seeds Subjected to Different Degree of Electric Current” conducted to evaluate the effect of electricity to the germination end early growth of newly harvested asparagus seeds and to determine which degree of transient will be most appropriate in promoting the germination and early growth of asparagus.
There were a total of 600 newly harvested seeds of asparagus used in this study The seeds were divided into four treatments namely: To - control; with no treatment applied ; T1 - 6 volts of electricity ; T - 9 volts of electricity ; and, Ti - 12 volts of electricity. The treatments had 3 replications and it was arranged a completely randomized design.
This study showed that seeds treated with 6 volts of electricity (treatment I) produced heavier plant weight after 41 days. This study also revealed that electricity had no effect on the germination and early growth responses of asparagus such as height and skein diameter, for the results were not found to be significant.
