Abstract: To study the effect of Nd3+ and burdock oligosaccharide on the germination power of Cassia obtusifolia seeds.The results showed that low concentration Nd3+ and burdock oligosaccharide promoted obviously the germination of seed and seedling growth, Treatment with Cassia obtusifolia seeds both 3mg/L Nd3+ and 0.5g/LBOS individual and mixture promoted the germination of seed and increased α-amylase and lipase activity respectively. The germination power of seed treatment with mixture of Nd3+ and burdock oligosaccharide was better than treatment individual of those.
