Abstract

This study was conducted to improve the seed germination by low temperature and $GA_3$ in $Orostachys$ $japonicus$ A. Berger (Jirisan) and $O.$ $iwarenge$ (Mak.) Hara (Jejuyeonhwa), Korean native plants. Observation of the seeds using a stereo microscope showed that all seeds of the two species have wrinkled surface and oblong shape. Seed size ranged 0.77-1.00/0.25-0.37 mm (length/width), indicating that the seeds are minute seeds. When the seeds of two $Orostachsis$ species were sown into petri-dish and placed in a plant growth chamber of 10, 15, 20, or $25^{\circ}C$, 'Jirisan' showed seed germination below 20% at all temperatures and 'Jejuyeonhwa' 80% at only $10^{\circ}C$. Seed germination of 'Jirisan' increased up to 44% at $10^{\circ}C$ by low temperature ($4^{\circ}C$) storage for 10 days, but decreased again at storage for more than 20 days. The seeds of 'Jejuyeonhwa' showed a large increase in seed germination by low temperature for 20-30 days, which was 95% at $10^{\circ}C$, but low temperature for more than 40 days significantly decreased seed germination. Dipping treatment in GA3 solution of $50-400mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ for different periods (3, 6, 12, and 24 hrs) remarkably improved germination rate and speed in both species, 80-100% in 'Jirisan' and 90-100% in 'Jejuyeonhwa' at all concentrations and dipping times used in this study.

우리나라 자생식물의 하나인 지리산바위솔($O.$ $japonicus$ A. Berger)과 제주연화바위솔[$O.$ $iwarenge$ (Mak.) Hara]의 종자 형태를 관찰하고 종자발아생리를 구명하기 위해 저온과 GA를 처리하였다. 종자의 형태를 실체현미경으로 관찰한 결과 2가지 바위솔 모두 세로로 주름진 쌀알 모양이었으며, 크기는 길이 0.77-1.00mm, 폭 0.25-0.37mm로 미세 종자임이 확인되었다. 휴면유무와 발아최적 온도를 구명하기 위해, Petri-dish에 파종후 온도가 다른 파종상에서 발아 시켰을 때, 지리산바위솔은 모든 온도에서 20% 이하의 발아율을 보였고, 제주연화바위솔은 $10^{\circ}C$에서만 80% 정도의 발아율을 보였다. $4^{\circ}C$ 냉장고에 건식저장을 하면서 10일 간격으로 온도별로 파종한 결과, 지리산바위솔은 무처리에서는 발아가 전혀 보이지 않았다. 10일간 저온처리 후 $10^{\circ}C$ 파종상에 두었을 때 발아율 44%로 많이 향상되었으나, 그 이상의 저온 처리에서는 발아율이 다시 감소하였다. 제주연화바위솔의 경우 저온 처리 30일까지는 발아율이 크게 향상되어 $10^{\circ}C$에서 95% 발아율을 보였다. 그러나 그 이상의 저온처리(40일)에서는 발아율이 급격히 저하되었다. $GA_3$ 농도를 $50-400mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$으로 하고, 침지시간은 3-24시간 범위로 하였을 때, 두가지 바위솔 모두 발아 속도가 현저하게 빨라지고 발아율이 획기적으로 높아지는 결과를 얻었다. 지리산바위솔은 모든 침지 시간에서 80-100% 발아율을 보였다. 제주연화바위솔도 $GA_3$ 농도와 시간에 상관 없이 파종 후 6일만에 90-100%의 발아율을 나타내었다.
