Abstract

Soybean seeds deteriorate rapidly when stored under unfavorable conditions and kinetin infusion prior to storage may reduce the rate of seed deterioration. To answer this hypothesis, soybean seeds were permeated with kinetin at 1.0 mM before storage in Agronomy Laboratory on July 2000 at 15 0C and 30 0C for up to 6 months, and their germination, germination after accelerated aging, speed of germination (T50), electrical conductivity and respiration rate were compared with those of untreated seeds stored under the same conditions. The treatments were arranged in a split plot design with three replications. Treated seeds maintained a higher germination and germination after accelerated aging, showed a more rapid germination, a greater cell membrane integrity and a higher respiration rate than untreated seeds irrespective of either storage temperature or storage period, whereas untreated seeds showed a rapid decline in the five seed quality indicators. By four months of storage at 30 0C, treated seeds retained a high level of germination (>80%), medium level of germination after accelerated aging (65%) and a high speed of germination (around 40 hours), while untreated seeds showed a rapid decline in the three seed quality indicators, germination percentage being less than 80%, germination after accelerated aging being less than 50% and speed of germination being higher than 55 hours. Therefore, it is concluded that kinetin infusion prior to storage, in addition to the acceleration of germination, slowed the rate of seed deterioration irrespective of storage temperature through the improvement of cell membrane integrity and seed respiration.

Abstract

Cultivation problems on marginal Ultisol involved low soil organic matter content, low water holding capacity and low soil aggregate stability. These constraints determined cabbage growth because of root crop development limited and plant nutrient uptake inhibited. Application of chicken manure could overcome the marginal constraints through improving soil aggregate stability and soil moisture content on the marginal Ultisol as well as the cabbage growth increased. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the soil aggregate stability and soil moisture in Ultisol as affected by the chicken manure applied and the cabbage growth improvement. This study was conducted from December to February, 2021 at Agriculture Station, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Bengkulu lying on ±100 m above sea level. The experiment design used was Completely Random Block Design (CRBD) with the chicken manure applied involved 5 doses; 7.5 tons ha-1, 15 tons ha-1, 22,5 tons ha-1, 30 tons ha-1, and without the manure as a control treatment. From the variance analysis (ANAVA) in the level of 5%, the chicken manure applied was significantly influence the improvement of soil aggregate stability and soil moisture content as well as the cabbage growth. With Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT), the dose of 7.5 tons ha-1 gave the highest value of the soil aggregate and soil moisture improvement. Furthermore, the chicken manure application of 7.5 tons ha-1 improved significantly the cabbage stem diameter at the age of 15 days, 30 days, and 45 DAP. The 7.5 tons ha-1 manure applied also gave significantly a number of leaves at the age of 15 days and 30 DAP. The height of plant was significantly influenced when the cabbage growth 15 DAP with 15 tons ha-1. In short, the chicken manure applied with 7.5 tons ha-1 gave the soil aggregate stability, the soil moisture, and cabbage growth improvement.
