Influence of temperature on the germination of Seeds : 6. Maize(Zea Mays L.)

[摘要] In this investigation the coefficients of germination are used to discuss the comparative speriority of germination at each temperature. The coefficients of germination are calculated by dividing the percentages of germination by the mean numbers of days of germination and they are indicated in the following table. [table] Accoding to this investigation the minimum, optimum and maximum temperatures for the germination of maize seeds are as follows. Minimum 6-8°C Optimum 34-38°C Maximum 44-48°C
