삼투처리와 무처리의 대두종자(품종 :Williams)에 대하여 두가지 온도(15, 30℃ )에서 두가지의 종자수분함량(30%, 50%)으로 조절된 조건으로 0. 2, 4 및 8일간 전처리함에 있어서 시간별 세세구배치법 4반복으로 배치하여 발아와 묘신장을 조사하였던 바 주요결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 콩의 묘신장은 30에서 2일간 전처리함으로서 촉진되었으나 같은 온도에서 전처리기간이 길수록 억제되었다. 2. 삼투처리후 전처리된 종자는 수분흡수와 묘신장이 떨어졌다. 3. 종자수분함량이 50%로 조절된 뒤 전처리된 것은 체의 수분함량을 증가시켰으며 4일간까지의 전처리는 묘신장을 크게 하였다. 4. 묘의 건물중에서는 전처리온도가 30℃ 일때와 종자수분함량이 50%로 조절되어 8일간 전처리하였을 때 감소되었다.

Germination and seedling length of soybean seeds (cultivar: Williams) with and without polyethylene glycol-8000 (PEG) treatments were measured following preconditioning at two temperatures (15 and 30~circC ) and two moisture levels 〔low (30 percent) and high (50 percent seed water content)〕 for 0, 2, 4, or 8 days. A split-split plot in time was used with four replications. Observations were made after two days of germination at 30~circC Seedling growth accelerated with two days of preconditioning at 30~circC , but was reduced as preconditioning duration increased up to eight days at the same temperature. PEG treated preconditioned seeds exhibited reduced moisture uptake and seedling growth. Preconditioning at a high moisture level increased seedling moisture content and also increased seedling length until four days of preconditioning duration. Seedling dry weight decreased when preconditioning temperature was 30~circC and when the high moisture level of preconditioning was continued for eight days.
