English : Promoting efficiency of cyanobacteria filtrate on seed germination and plant growth of wheat, soybean and clover
Arabic : التأثير المشجع لراشح للسيانوبكترياعلى انبات ونمو بذور الفمح و فول الصويا والبرسيم
Abstract The effect of cyanobacteria strains filtrates of Nostoc catcicola and Anabaena flos aquae on the seed germination and / or plant growth of some wheat, soybean and clover crop cultivars were investigated. Soaking the seeds for these crops in the filtrates of both cyanobacteria strains increased the germination percentage over either the control treatment (water) or Watanabe medium. The increase in germination reached 97.49% over the control treatment. Also, the seedling of these crops when treated with the cyanobacteria filtrate seemed to be healthy improved in growth than those treated with water or Watanabe medium only. However, clover seedling treated with Nostoc filtrate achieved the highest shoot length increase percentage (100) as compared with other treatments for all tested seedlings crops. Consequently, soybean seedlings tested with Nostoc filtrate had recorded 96.67% increase in root length in comparison with all treatments. Generally, both Nostoc catcicola and Anabaena flos aquae strains had positively stimulated and improved germination and/or plant growth for all tested crops than those of water or Watanabe medium
