Leaves Area of Spring Wheat Plants Depending on Preseeding Treatment of Seeds and Varieties

Abstract

The article deals with the formation of the area of leaves of spring wheat depending on the treatment of seeds and varieties in the conditions of the Chuvash Republic. Three varieties of Margarita, Simbircite, and Prokhorovka were studied. The second factor is seed treatment in three gradations: 1. Without processing (control). 2. Seed treatment with the drug Benlate. 3. Seed treatment with Nano-Gro. The results of the analysis of leaves area formation are presented. Determining the optimal leaves area is a very complex problem. Solar radiation at an insufficient leaves area of field plants is absorbed not completely; at the greatest developed leaf surface the same phenomenon occurs. In combination with the seed protectant of spring grain crops – Benlate, the authors also studied the effect of Nano-Gro. The presowing treatment of seeds with the Nano-Gro solution significantly affects the increase in the formation of the leaves area of spring wheat.

Formation of the leaf surface area of spring wheat in various cultivation technologies

“…The yield of crops is formed due to the photosynthetic activity of plants. The leaf apparatus and its assimilation area have a big task -to form the main generative organ during the vegetation of plantsan ear filled with fullfledged grain [1,2]. Complex processes of plant growth and development in general depend on the size and absorption capacity of each cell of a green leaf to absorb the sun's energy in order to convert it into the energy for further growth and development of the plant as a whole [3][4][5][6].…”

“…The viability and active functioning of the leaf apparatus depends on the rate of development and the dynamics of formation of optimal leaf surface area [1,2].…”
