The effect of different temperatures and substrates on germination and growth of Teak seedling was studied. The germination percentage recorded after 9 weeks of sowing significantly higher at 30°C than at 25°C and 20°C. Vermiculite as a substrate gave highest germination but on par with that of Sand + Soil + FYM. The shoot length and number of leaves did not vary due to substrates, whereas, higher temperature (30oC) had favourable effect on these parameters compared to other temperature regimes studied.
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.
