Seeds in Aluminium Stress Conditions JF - Jurnal Penelitian Pertanian Terapan JA - JPPT VL - 21 IS - 3 SE - DO - 10.25181/jppt.v21i3.2133 UR - https://jurnal.polinela.ac.id/jppt/article/view/2133 SP - 204-211 AB - <p>Seed germination in ultisol is a problem. Ultisol has a low pH, poor in nutrients and organic matter, and high Al content. The low physiological quality of seeds is also a limiting factor. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of&nbsp;<em>priming</em>&nbsp;on the seed vigor of two chili varieties whose seeds have expired and have not expired. This experiment consisted of 2 experiments, namely Experiment 1, which used seeds that had expired (deteriorating), and Experiment II, which used seeds that had not expired (non-deteriorating). This study was structured using a completely randomized design (CRD) which was repeated three times. This experiment is factorial. The first factor is&nbsp;<em>priming</em>, consisting of five levels: control, immersion in water, 30% PEG, 50 ppm GA3, and 1% KNO3. At the same time, the second factor in the first experiment was the seeds of the Tanjung 2 and Kencana varieties that had expired (deteriorating). In the second experiment, the second factor was the seeds of the Tanjung 2 and Kencana varieties that had not expired (non-deteriorating). The data obtained were analyzed using the R statistic program with a 5% HSD test. The results showed that&nbsp;<em>priming</em>&nbsp;with 50 ppm GA3 and 1% KNO3 increased the vigor of seeds that had expired (deteriorating). Meanwhile,&nbsp;<em>priming</em>&nbsp;with water and 1% KNO3 increased the vigor of seeds that had not yet expired (deterioration). The Kencana variety has a higher vigor than the Tanjung 2 variety on expired seeds. In seeds that have not yet expired, both varieties have the same good vigor.</p> ER -
