Background : Polygala tenuifolia is mainly distributed in Korea and China. It is known to be mainly helpful for brain function and has been used medicinally for a long time. Currently, most of that used in domestic are imported from China. We want to identify the basic characteristics to replace imports and grow into new domestic income crops. Previous studies have examined the storage conditions of seeds and the areas suitable for cultivation. In this study, seed harvesting, germination conditions and seedling production methods are explained.
Methods and Results : Seed harvest method - in early June, we have covered the funnel, paper bag and mesh bag. Seed harvested at the end of June were sorted by wind speed of 3.5 m/s – 6.1 m/s and 1 ㎜ - 4 ㎜ mesh size. The germination rate was measured at 20℃ for 10 days. Suit of the germination temperature - the germination rate was measured by 100 seeds, three replicates with a temperature gradient of 15℃ to 35℃ and 2℃ intervals. In order to confirm the conditions for seedling production, the emergence rate was examined at 20℃, 25℃, 30℃ and 35℃ in growth chamber. The seed harvesting method was 1.88 g of mesh bag the highest yield. The best sorting method was 2 ㎜ mesh size and 5.7 m/s wind speed. The germination temperature was the highest at 89.7 - 90.3% at the temperature range of 1 9℃ - 20℃ and the germination rate was decreased to 21.0% at 27℃. The seedling production rate was highest at 20℃. There was no difference in growth according to the pot size, but the survival rate was the highest in 105 size
Conclusion : As a result of this study, Polygala tenuifolia was confirmed that harvesting by mesh bag and sorting by size and wind speed were effective for seed quality and yield. The seed germination was observed at relatively low temperature. These results can be used as basic data for cultivation.
