섬쑥부쟁이의 대량번식 체계를 구명하고 발아 및 입 묘율 향상을 위한 기초 자료를 얻기 위해 온도와 광조건, 그리고 priming 처리약제, 처리농도, 처리기간이 발아에 미치는 영향에 대하여 실험한 결과는 다음과 같았다. 온도에 따른 발아율은 20, 25℃ 처리구가 가장 높았으며 30℃에서 발아율이 급격히 낮아졌고 35℃에서는 전혀 발아하지 않았다. 발아개시일은 15℃에서 가장 늦어졌으며 온도가 높아질수록 빨라지는 경향을 보였으나 높은 온도에서는 쉽게 부패하였다. 발아세는 25℃에서 가장 높게 나타났으며 15, 20, 30℃ 순으로 낮이졌다. 굉조건 실험에서 발아율, 발아개시일, 발아세, T50 등이 명 처리에서 증진되는 경향을 보였으나 유의 차는 없었다 Priming 처리기간별로 발아율을 보면 평균적으로 3 시간 처리가 30 분처리보다 높았다. 섬쑥부쟁이 종자에 0.3M KNO3+K3PO4를 3시간 처리할 경우 발아율이 83.3%로 가장 높았고 역시 T50도 가장 짧았다. T50과 발아개시일은 30분 처리가 3시간 처리보다 좋은 결과를 보였으며 모든 priming 처리가 대조구보다 좋은 결과를 보였다. 발아세는 모든 처리가 대조구보다 높았으나 처리시간에 따른 효과가 없었다.
This experiment was conducted to investigate the mass propagation system of Aster glehni FR. and to obtain the basic data for improvement of germination and seedling. The following was the results of experimentation about temperature and light conditions, and priming treatment as kinds of chemicals, their concentration and treated periods affect germination of Aster glehni FR. The germination percentage of Aster glehni FR. seed was higher in 20 and 25℃ than the others, but it dropped rapidly at 30℃ and didn't germinate at 35℃. The first day to germination was the slowest at 15℃. The germination rate of Aster glehni FR seed increased with increasing with temperatures from 15 to 25℃. But the seed was rotten easily in high temperature. The germination rate was shown highest in 25℃, and next was 15, 20, 30℃ in order. Light treatment enhanced germination percentage, the first day to germination, germination rate and T50, but there was no significant difference. The 3 hours priming treatments had more effect on germination percentage than 30 minutes treatments as comparing averages. Aster glehni FR seeds primed in KNO3+K3PO4 for 3 hours had most eHective on germination percentage (83.3%) and also showed shortest T50·T50 and day of first germination was better in 30 minutes than 3 hours treatments, and most of priming treatments were better than control(non-priming seeds). While priming seeds showed shorter day of first gemination than control, there was no significant difference between 30 minutes and 3 hours treatments.
