“…A large number of studies have shown that EC has a significant negative correlation with seed vitality and the seedling emergence potential [34,35]. The higher the EC value, the slower or worse the germination, or there could even be no germination [35,36].…”

To explore the effects of pulsed electric field treatment on the germination of Scutellaria baicalensis seeds and the growth of seedlings, this study used the response surface methodology to design the working parameters of the pulsed electric field and treated and cultured Scutellaria baicalensis seeds. The results showed that the pulsed electric field treatment was beneficial for the germination of Scutellaria baicalensis seeds, improving the metabolic activity and stress resistance of seedlings. When the pulsed electric field treatment’s parameters were 0.5 kV·cm−1, 120 μs, and 99 pulses, the germination potential of seeds was significantly increased by 29.25% and the germination index significantly increased by 20.65%, compared to the control. From 5th to 15th day, the activities of SOD, POD, and α-amylase in the seedlings, and the contents of Pro, soluble sugars, and soluble proteins were significantly increased, compared to the control. This study provides a theoretical basis for improving the germination and seedling growth of medicinal herbs such as Scutellaria baicalensis and their practical application in production.

“…Despite the efforts carried out, sugar beet germination and uniform establishment is still a challenge that needs to be improved. The problem of seedling establishment has been linked to the presence of natural germination-inhibitors present in the pericarp (Inoue and Yamamoto, 1974;Kulan et al 2019). The pericarp also serves as a physical barrier for water and oxygen uptake, thereby retarding germination (Abts et al 2013;Habib, 2010).…”

PurposeThe effect of different concentrations, types and placements of protein-based biostimulants (PBs) on early growth and establishment of different varieties of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L) was evaluated.MethodsThree PBs with varying concentrations (0 to 10 g/kg soil) and different placement methods in sandy-clayey soil were tested for their enhancement effect on growth and establishment of three sugar beet varieties.ResultsAll three PBs used in this study enhanced the growth of sugar beet by 59-127%, compared to control. A content of 1 or 2 g/kg soil showed significantly the highest effect on early plant growth, with an increase in plant height, plant canopy area and total biomass of sugar beet by >100%, >165% and 195% respectively compared to the control. Generally, the three sugar beet varieties responded similarly to PB treatments and there was no difference in the effect of placement of the PBs on early sugar beet growth. However, the combination of the PB “potato protein film (PF)” with varieties I and III, showed a significantly positive effect on plant height and plant canopy area for treatment up to 5 g/kg soil, compared to other PB-varieties combinations. A better enhancement effect was observed by the addition of PBs compared to nutrient solution, which implies that nutrients/amino acids was not the only reason for the positive effects of the PBs.ConclusionPBs, mixed with soil at low concentration, significantly enhanced early growth and establishment of sugar beet.
