The aim of the study was to study the effect of the biostimulator of growth «Biostim» on the germination and development of seeds and seedlings of woody species in order to develop a resource-saving technology of cultivation for nursery breeding in the Volgograd region. The objects of research were the woody species Quercusrobur L., Robiniapseudoacacia L., PopulusbolleanaLouche., Populusnigra var. italica Münchh., Catalpa bignonioides, Pinusnigra subsp. pallasiana (Lamb.), Platycladusorientalis (L.) Franco., Piceapungens Engelm. ofdifferentgeographicalorigin. As a result of the conducted studies, the best result was shown by poplars and catalpa with a concentration of «Biostim» at a dose of 2.5 l/ha (20 ml) for cuttings and 20 ml/l for seeds. The concentration of the preparation at a dose of 10 ml / kg (the consumption of the working solution is 1.5-2 l/kg) with soaking of seeds before sowing for 10-20 minutes, followed by drying, was suitable for Robiniapseudoacacia. The concentration of the preparation in a dose of 10 ml / l with soaking of the seeds before sowing for 10-20 minutes followed by drying was suitable for robiniapseudoactation. The worst result in the test of laboratory germination of seeds was shown by oak petiolate, due to the lack of reaction of seeds to processing and their mold formation. In coniferous species, the best result was shown by Crimean pine with a concentration of the preparation«Biostim» of 10 ml / l and 2.5 l / ha. The germination of spruce and thuja seeds was weak. According to the results of the test of the preparation «Biostim» on seedlings and seeds in a nursery on dark chestnut soils, the best result was shown by seedlings of poplar and catalpa species with a concentration of «Biostim» at a dose of 2.5 l/ha and 20 ml/l for seeds. Additional top dressing with poplar preparation proved to be effective, after which good growth, development and leafing of plants were observed. Seedlings and seeds of eastern thuja and blue spruce after additional processing grew and developed satisfactorily, subsequently their drying and loss was observed, which makes the topic of testing biostimulators of growth on conifers is promising for further research.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
