“…It is possible that the increased availability of starch assimilation was brought on by GA3, which would have stimulated the activity of certain enzymes that encouraged early germination, such as -amylase. Parameshwari and Srimathi [12]; Sharma and Jain [13]; Samir et al [14] have all reported on similar studies.The considerable impact of gibberellic acid on seed germination may be attributable to its involvement in alpha-amylase activity, which catalyses the conversion of starch into simple carbohydrates and releases chemical energy that is needed to activate the embryo. Pawar et al [15] reported a comparable outcome.…”

A field experiment was conducted in 2020–21 at the Fruit Research Station, Imaliya, Department of Horticulture, JNKVV, Jabalpur. The AFRBD (Asymmetrical Factorial Randomized Block Design) was set up with 20 distinct treatment combinations of soil media Soil + Sand, Soil + Vermicompost, Soil + Sand + Vermicompost, Soil +Vermicompost + Biofertisol, Soil + Vermicompost + Azatobactor + PSB + KSB and plant growth regulator i.e. GA3 0 ppm (control), GA3 100 ppm, GA3 200 ppm, GA3 300 ppm. The vigour and germination of seeds were significantly impacted by the type of media used and the usage of plant growth regulators. In regard to the growth parameter, better values for seedling height, number of leaves and stem girth at 30, 60 and 90 days after sowing were found with treatment GA3 200 ppm. Growth metrics, such as root length, fresh shoot weight, dry shoot weight and dry root weight at 120 days, revealed improved results with a higher vigour index when the combination of GA3 200 ppm + growing medium (soil+ vermicompost+ Biofertisol) were applied. The GA3 200 ppm with growing medium (Soil+ Vermicompost+ Biofertisol) were proven to be better in terms of the seed germination parameters. Minimum time was taken for seed germination and increased seed germination percentage had been recorded at 30 days after planting.

“…The utility of KNO 3 in improving seed germination has been reported in G. andamanica as well (Waman and Bohra, 2019). The efficacy of gibberellins in improving germination process has been reported by several researchers in tropical fruit species (Khan, 2015;Samir et al, 2015;Waman et al, 2018). The main role of gibberellic acid is to increase the production of hydrolase enzyme (Prasad and Prasad, 2009).…”

Garcinia dhanikhariensis is an endemic tropical species distributed in the Bay Islands, India. The species has been found to be of horticultural significance owing to its edible fruits and potential as natural colorant. Being an endemic species, identifying the potential uses and standardization of nursery techniques of G. dhanikhariensis could be helpful in conserving and popularizing it. The present investigation aimed at determining fatty acid composition of seed fat using GC-MS and standardization of seed germination technique for mass multiplication. Results revealed that seeds had higher saturated fatty acids, dominant being stearic acid (43.62%) and oleic acid (42.40%). Among the pretreatments studied, soaking of seeds in potassium nitrate (0.1%) or gibberellic acid (500 mg/L) was recommended based on superior germination percentage and seedling growth parameters. The effect of seed source on germination characteristics was also studied, which revealed considerable variability among the collections. Regenerated seedlings were successfully transplanted without any mortality. Thus, seeds of G. dhanikhariensis were found to be novel sources of industrially important stearic acid and oleic acid. Nursery protocol discussed here would be useful for mass multiplication of this novel fruit species.

“…The lowest germination (28.71%) was recorded in treatment of garden soil (control). Vermicompost modifies soil structure, improves the availability of nutrients, and increases the media's ability to retain water, in addition to enhancing microbial and enzymatic activities that have longlasting residual impacts in Khirni (Samir et al 2016) [8] . Vermicompost has bioactive principles considered to be beneficial for germination and growth of the plant, as also having a balanced composition of nutrients in mango (Kaur 2017) [4] .…”
