Abstract

This study was conducted to find out the effect of diniconazole treatment by seed soaking on the stretching of tomato and cucumber seedlings. The emergence rate of tomato and cucumber seed was decreased as diniconazole concentration was higher and soaking period was longer. The emergence rate of tomato seedlings was lower as the soaking period was longer in $1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ concentration treatments, although there was no significant difference. The other concentration treatment (10, 50, and $100mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$) reduced emergence rate of tomato seedlings outstandingly in higher concentration and longer treated period, but 90% of treated seeds emerged at 10 days after sowing. As the concentration of diniconazol was higher and soaking period was longer, plant height and growth rate of seedlings were retarded. There covery of internodes growth was faster in lower concentration and shorter soaking period. The top and root fresh weight and dry weight of tomato and cucumber seedlings was not influenced by $1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ concentration, but these growth characteristics were reduced in higher concentration and longer soaking period. The dwarfed cucumber seedlings treated by diniconazol showed normal growth rate after planting and their male and female flower was set normally. These results suggest that the proper concentration and soaking period of diniconazol may be $10mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ concentration for 12 hours in tomato seed, and $1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ concentration for 24 hours in cucumber seed.

본 실험은 triazole계의 생장조절제인 diniconazole의 종자침지처리 농도 및 처리시간이 토마토와 오이 플러그묘의 도장억제에 미치는 효과를 검증하기 위하여 수행하였다. 토마토와 오이 모두 처리 농도가 높고 침지시간이 길수록 유묘 출현율이 늦어지는 경향을 보였다. 토마토의 경우 $1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 농도에서는 침지시간이 길수록 유묘 출현율이 조금 낮긴 하였으나 무처리와 유의차가 없었고, 그 외의 농도에서는 농도가 높을수록 침지시간이 길수록 유묘 출현율이 현저히 낮았다. 그러나 파종 10일 후면 90% 이상 유묘가 출현하였다. Diniconazol의 농도가 높고 침지시간이 길수록 과도하게 초장이 억제 되었고 발육속도도 지연되었다. 저농도 일수록 절간장 신장 회복이 빨랐으며 고농도이고 침지시간이 길수록 절간장 신장이 억제기간이 길고 회복도 느렸다. 토마토 및 오이는 $1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 농도처리에서는 지상부, 지하부, 생체중 및 건물중의 일정한 경향이 없었으나 그 외의 농도에서는 침지시간이 길수록 지상부, 지하부의 생체중과 건물중이 감소하는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 또한 diniconazol의 처리로 왜화된 오이묘는 정식 후에 정상적인 초장 신장을 보였으며, 암꽃과 수꽃 착생도 무처리구와 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 종자 처리시 왜화율과 묘소질 등을 고려한 diniconazol의 적정 처리농도와 침지시간은 토마토는 $10mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 농도에 12 시간, 오이는 $1mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$의 농도에 24시간 침지 처리하는 것이 이상적이라 판단된다.
