Abstract

Salvia rosmarinus Spenn. (Rosemary) holds significant value in medicinal and aromatic applications, serving as a key ingredient in pharmaceuticals, food products, and cosmetics. While many plant species benefit from seed-based propagation, S. rosmarinus poses a challenge due to its mucilaginous seed coating. As a result, germination rates often remain low, ranging from 10 % to 20 %, leading to irregular crop establishment. This study aimed to explore the efficacy of hormonal and other pre-sowing treatments on seed germination of S. rosmarinus. Four distinct treatments were evaluated including physical (sandpaper scarification, dry heat, hot and cold water stratification), chemical (sulphuric acid, hydrogen peroxide, and potassium nitrate), hormonal treatments (GA3, IAA, and BAP), combination of pre-chilling and hormonal, as well as different potting media combinations, which were compared against an untreated control. All pre-sowing seed treatments, except for hot water, dry heat, chemical treatments, and nanozim, resulted in increased seed germination percentages in S. rosmarinus compared to the control group. Among the different treatments, the combination of pre-chilling + GA3 and pre-chilling + soil: sand (1:1) treatment resulted in the highest germination percentages of 59.33 % and 63.83 %, compared with those in the control where the germination was 6.83 % and 0.67 %. Potassium nitrate (0.3 % for 3 min) was found to be the most effective chemical treatment with a germination percentage of 24.83 % and seedling vigor index of 3.93 ± 0.69. Pre-chilling treatment for 21 days was the most successful physical treatment, with a germination percentage of 36.66 % and a mean germination time of 17.45 ± 1.34 days. The germination percentage improved with increasing GA3 concentration up to 150 ppm, beyond which a decline in trend was seen. These findings suggest that understanding the seed germination ecology of S. rosmarinus is crucial for developing seed germination protocols that can enhance mass multiplication with a shorter germination period, ultimately increasing the species' regeneration capability and preserving its variety in nature. This practical and economical approach can help to achieve consistent germination and seedling emergence in nursery raising as well.

探索激素处理和播种前技术对丹参种子萌发的影响
迷迭香(Salvia rosmarinus Spenn.)在药用和芳香应用方面具有重要价值,是药品、食品和化妆品的关键成分。虽然许多植物物种都能从种子繁殖中获益,但迷迭香却因其粘液种子包衣而面临挑战。因此,发芽率往往很低,从 10 % 到 20 % 不等,导致作物生长不稳定。本研究旨在探索荷尔蒙和其他播前处理对 S. rosmarinus 种子萌发的功效。研究评估了四种不同的处理方法,包括物理处理(砂纸结疤、干热、冷热水分层)、化学处理(硫酸、过氧化氢和硝酸钾)、激素处理(GA3、IAA 和 BAP)、预冷和激素的组合以及不同的盆栽介质组合,并与未处理的对照进行了比较。与对照组相比,除热水、干热、化学处理和 nanozim 外,所有播种前种子处理都提高了 S. rosmarinus 的种子发芽率。在不同的处理中,预冷+ GA3 和预冷+土:沙(1:1)处理组合的发芽率最高,分别为 59.33 % 和 63.83 %,而对照组的发芽率分别为 6.83 % 和 0.67 %。硝酸钾(0.3%,3 分钟)是最有效的化学处理,发芽率为 24.83%,幼苗活力指数为 3.93 ± 0.69。预冷处理 21 天是最成功的物理处理方法,发芽率为 36.66%,平均发芽时间为 17.45 ± 1.34 天。发芽率随着 GA3 浓度的增加而提高,最高可达 150 ppm,超过这一浓度后,发芽率呈下降趋势。这些研究结果表明,了解 S. rosmarinus 的种子萌发生态学对于制定种子萌发方案至关重要,该方案可在更短的萌发时间内提高大量繁殖,最终提高该物种的再生能力并保护其在自然界中的多样性。这种实用而经济的方法也有助于在育苗过程中实现一致的发芽和出苗。
