Karaçamın (Pinus Nigra Arnold.) Çimlenmesi Ve Gelişimi Üzerine Manyetik Alanın Etkisi

Özet

The aim of this research is to determine the effects of magnetic field (MF) on black pine (Pinus nigra Arnold). The seeds were exposed
to MF strengths in the range of 3.8-4.8 mT on the movable ground with the velocity of 1m/sec. The seeds were exposed to MF of different
strengths (1 time, 3 times, 9 times and 15 times). The control and experimental groups were germinated at optimum conditions in the climate
chamber and in an incubator (25 °C). Germination percentage was measured in order to determine optimum MF strengths at 4th, 7th, 14nd,
21th and 28th days. The seedling heights and root lengths of the seeds exposed to MF were determined at the 60th day. As a result, the
germination percentages, root length and seedling growth were higher in the MF applications than that in the control group.
