Abstract:

In order to research the influence of different initiator combinations on seed germination of sugar beet, and provide a basis for screening seed initiators, the sugar beet seeds of TD802 were used as the test material, different concentrations and different initiator combinations were adopted to treat the beet seeds, and the germination potential, germination rate, germination index and vigor index were measured. The results showed that initiators with different concentrations and combinations had different initiation effects at the same treatment time, the combination of 8% hydrogen peroxide and 40% PEG had the highest germination potential, 5% hydrogen peroxide had the highest germination rate, the combination of 3% hydrogen peroxide and 0.01% boric acid had the highest germination index, and the combination of 8% hydrogen peroxide and 0.01% boric acid had the highest vitality index.

Key words: sugar beet, seed, germination, initiator, initiator combination
