EX VITRO STUDY ON TESTING THE TREATMENT WITH A STIMULATING EFFECT ON THE SEED GERMINATION RATE OF OCIMUM BASILICUM L.

摘要

The stimulation of the seed germination rate may be one of the ways to prevent environmental attacks of byotik or abyotik agents on the quality of seedlings. One of the factors involved in stimulating the germination rate of seeds is red light illumination. Currently, the source for generating red light that consumes the smallest amount of energy is atermic laser. Ocimum basilicum L. is one of the plant species that have been used by man since ancient times in culinary, medicinal, decorative and spiritual activities. Therefore, this paper presents experimental data obtained by testing the treatments based on the use of a laser light field, with a stimulating effect on the rate of seed germination on Marseille and Red Rubin basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) varieties. The experimental data obtained recommendes the application of field laser light treatments for 30' in order to stimulate the germination rate of seeds and in order to obtain seedlings for each of the two varieties of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) under study.
