Effect of growing environment, fruit maturity and sowing time on germination and seedling growth of Gmelina arborea Roxb.

Seeds of Gmelina arborea many times do not germinate due to unknown reason. So the study was initiated to determine optimum stage of fruit maturity (green, yellow and yellow brown), suitable growing environment (agro-net shade and open field condition) and sowing time (August, September, October, November, December and January) on germination and seedling growth. Significant differences were exhibited among the fruit maturity levels, growing environment and sowing time for all the traits. Seed collected from yellow brown stage sown under agro-net shade during August month gave superior germination percentage ( %), seedling height ( cm) and root length ( cm), followed by September month. Green fruit harvesting stage had poor germination, germination energy and seedling growth under both the growing environments. Hence for good quality planting of Gmelina arborea seed should be collected from yellow brown stage and sown under agro-net shade during August month. | Effect of growing environment fruit maturity and sowing time on germination and seedling growth of Gmelina arborea Roxb.
