THE EFFECT OFF SOME MEDICAL SEEDS EXTRACTIONS AND NAA GROWTH REGULATOR ON GERMINATION AND SEEDLINGS GROWTH OF EGG PLANT Solanum melongena L.

Abstract

The practical application of this experiment was done in one of nurseries in baquba city duing season on 2007 . Egg plant varity “ dania 2006 “ was used in this experiment to find the effect of three medical plants seeds extraction : Black cumin aqeous , Fenugreek aqueous, Fennel aqueous as well as naphthalene acetic acid (on egg plant seed germination and seedlings growth . Results indicated definitely that seeds socking treatment got the best one compared to with out socking or socking with distilled water ( for germination period , % germination %germination rate , and %germination pour ) . High significant differences for socking seeds with NAA solution compared with socking seeds with fenugreek and fennel aqueous extractions ,while there was no significant differences between socking with this regulator and socking with black cumin aqeous extraction . The results also show that socking +spraying (the seedling) treatment got significant differences in vegetative characters of seedling ( long , numberof branches / seedling , number of leaves / seedling , leaves area / seedling and fresh weight of seedling ) compared with socking only or spraying only . The NAA treatment got significant differences in most studies characters flowed black cumin then fenugreek and fennel extraction ( no significant differences between this two treatments .
