Germination of Pelletized and Natural Petunia x Hybrida Seeds after Long Term Storage
Original language description
Pelleting is used by seed companies to improve the sowability of small and unevenly shaped seeds that could not be sown by a sowing machine. Petunia x hybrida is among the most popular annuals worldwide. The 'seeds are relatively small so young plants producers request pelleted seeds. The only drawback of pellets could be lowering the germination rate after 3 years of guaranteed shelf live. Natural seeds keep high germination longer, usually for 3-5 years. In this experiment was tested germination rate of 14 F1 Petunia varieties from 2000 till 2014. In 2006 the seeds were pelleted. According to this experiment the natural seeds kept high germination after 13 years if stored in optimal conditions. The germination rate after harvesting and in 2014 was not statistically different on p = 0.05. The germination of pelleted seeds and natural seeds stored in room temperature decreased over the years.
