%0 Journal Article %T Effects of Different Boron Concentrations on Germination of Bread Wheat Cultivars %A Ezgi KURTULMU£¿ %J - %D 2018 %X This study was carried out to determine the effects of different boron (B) concentrations on the germination of 3 bread wheat cultivars (FLA 85, Kas and Pehlivan). In the randomized block design, 6 different B concentrations (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4 and 8 ppm) were used. In this study, germination rate, germination energy, germination index, germination time, root and stem length characteristics of seedlings were investigated. According to the results of analysis of variance; The effect of B concentrations on all characteristics examined except for age root and shoot weight was significant at 1% probability level. As a result, the application of B at low concentrations showed a positive effect on the germination rate with respect to the mean of the cultivars, while the germination rate at doses above 2 ppm decreased. In general, a decrease in the germination characteristics has been observed due to the increase in B concentrations above 1 ppm. Significant differences were determined in the response of wheat cultivars to different B concentrations. When all the parameters were evaluated together, it was concluded that the most resistant type of bread wheat was the most resistant type of FLA 85 %K Bor toksisitesi %K £¿imlenme h£¿z£¿ %K £¿imlenme oran£¿ %U http://dergipark.org.tr/sduzfd/issue/40528/455218
