هدفت هذه الدراسة لمعرفة أثر المعاملات المختلفة في إنبات بذور الخرنوب للتعرّف على أفضل الطرق الواجب استخدامها و المدة الزمنية المطلوبة، و انعكاس ذلك على نسبة الإنبات و سرعته بحسب المعاملات المطبقة . أظهرت النتائج بأن خدش البذور كانت الطريقة الأكثر فعالية في زيادة نسبة الإنبات و كذلك معاملة البذور بحمض الكبريت المركز لمدة 30 دقيقة ؛ إذ بلغت نسبة الإنبات 100%، و من ثم المعاملة بالكحول لمدة 60 دقيقة، ثم غمر البذور في الماء الساخن لمدة 60 دقيقة. أشارت النتائج أيضاً أن سرعة انبات بذور الخرنوب عند معاملتها بالخدش كانت أفضل (14.5Id=) و من ثم المعاملة بحمض الكبريت المركز لمدة 30 دقيقة (21.5 Id=)، و من ثم المعاملة بالكحول (38Id=) عند المعاملة لمدة 60 دقيقة، أما الغمر بالماء الساخن فكانت (60Id=).
The effect of different treatments on carob seed germination was studied. The results showed that, seed scarification was the most effective method in increasing germination rate as well as the use of concentrated sulfuric acid for 30 minutes reaching 100%, followed by the treatment with alcohol for 60 minutes, and immersing seeds in hot water for 60 minutes. The results also indicated that the speed of germination when seeds were scarified was the best (I.D.=14.5), followed by the treatment with concentrated sulfuric acid for 30 minutes (I.D.=21.5), alcohol for 60 minutes (I.D.= 38) and immersing seeds in hot water for 60 minutes (ID.=60).

This study aimed to obtain seedlings balanced and superior in growth, by searching
the effect of seed size on the growth and development of seedlings of carob tree
( Ceratonia siliqua L.) developing in containers Minirhizotron in the growth room in
Research Center in Bouka-Lattakia. Seeds were divided into three categories (large-size
LS, control CS, small-sized SS) and studied several quantities indicators of growth and
development of the total shoot and root of the seedlings for a period of three months.
For a radical system, results indicated a high significant superiority in the large
seeds values for the main root of the overall growth rate such as length (cm) and the speed
of growth (cm/3days) and secondary roots (total number, total length/cm) height to control
and small seeds. And the significant superiority of the seeds of the control on the small
seeds.
It has also given large seeds higher values regarding all indicators related to the shoot
system such as average diameter and average height and average number of phalanges
stem and leaves, and ending with the dry weight of shoots.
Results for the study of periodic growth curves for the main root and main stem of
the three treatments indicated the presence of a great similarity in the overall appearance of
these curves, which refers that the appearance is not affected by this change in the amount
of seed size. On the other hand, the phenomenon was observed in contrast growth
Antagonism clearly between the totals shoot and root with any end to the growth of main
root accompanied by a junior at the end of the main stem growth and vice versa.
This research aims study the effect of different treatments in activate and increase
percentage of germination Cupressus arizonicaL.seeds to use plants in forestation projects,
seeds were get from mature conifers, and tested by different treatments
with control, then
cultured within polyethylene bags many times to calculate indicators of germination. The
results showed that the soaking the seeds Cupressus arizonicaL. in citric acid 0.1% with
cold wet stratification for 30 days at 4-5c gave higher germination percentage 75%.The
treatments of the soaking seeds in sulfuric acid0.1% and hydroxide sodium 0.1% with cold
wet stratification for 30 days gave respectively 60%-53% .But superiority was not
significant. Other treatments; soaking the seeds in tap water 24h with cold wet
stratification for 30 days gave only 36%.But the control treatment gave lower germination
percentage of all just only 9%.
The treatment of soaking seeds in citric acid 0.1% with cold wet stratification for 30
days surpassed the rest of the treatments in effect on plant height at the end of the
experiment.
This research was conducated on Ceratonia siliqua L. in vitro to study the effect of
some growth regulators in both multiplication and rooting stage. And determine the best
concentrations wich lead the highest rate of multiplication (interms of number of shoots
and length), and the best rooting (interms of percentage of rooting, number of roots and
length).
The aim of this study was to determine the best size and shape of containers to produce higher quality seedlings, and determine which treatments (moving the seedlings to other beds, or transfer to bigger containers, or pruning the shoot and root syst
em of Ceratonia siliqua seedlings in the nursery) are the best for growth and stabilization in out planting. The study showed that the control seedlings D1 which were growing in traditional plastic containers (1 liter) gave low survival rate which did not exceed 20%, and this was due to numerous reasons mainly roots deformation. Seedlings D8, the containers(2 liters) improved the morphological characteristics of root and shoot system and reduced the roots deformation, which led to higher survival rate reached more than 82%. While the deep containers and the air pruning improved the structure and spread the root system of seedlings D9 and limited the roots deformation, which led to higher survival ratio reached more than 95%. Moving the seedlings to other beds in the nursery improved the survival rate in out planting, which amounted ,in D2, to more than 95% and in D3 over than 67%. Also, the study confirmed that cutting the developing top of shoot system and leaving the seedlings in the beds until their planting date D4 did not give a significant effect compared to D5 in which the developing top of their shoot system was cut and was transferred to bags of (12 liters) with pruning the root system, and the survival rate was more than 72% in D4, and over 62% in D5. Regarding to survival rate under the influence of transport operations to larger bags, the D7 which was transferred to bags of 3 liters capacity surpassed in significant differences and was 77.5% compared to D5 and D6 which was transferred to 12 liters bags, where the survival rate in which was 62.5%.
This study was carried out during 2014-2015 in two different nurseries located in
University nursery (Lattakia governorate) and Salhab nursery (countryside of Hama
governorate). Seeds were taken from two sites of Lattakia governorate (Mashqita– Bsn
ada)
where Cordia myxa exists as exotic species in some coastal regions and three treatments in
addition to control were examined .The results showed that there is an effect of
scarification of seeds on investigated treatments and were significant differences in
germination percentage in both sites which recorded 55% in university nursery and 35% in
Al-Ghab nursery. While there were not contrast between the soaking in boiling and tap
water treatments on the seed germination energy in Al-Ghab nursery. Scarification
treatment gave higher value of germination energy 25% in Al-Ghab nursery and 21.66% in
university nursery , while the same treatment decreased germination velocity compared to
other treatments in university nursery which seed needed in average ( 8,01 day) whereas
the same treatment increased germination velocity in Al-Ghab nursery which needed (1,54
day). Finally, regarding to cutting ,There is not observe to any positive influence to
cuttings which treated in ABA hormone (1g/l) for (10,20,30 m). It could be deduced that
there were changes in germination percentage, germination energy and germination
velocity in two sites which appeared to be a Preliminary indication of impact of the some
dormancy breaking treatments on investigated indications of Cordia myxa Forsk. species .
