The effect soaking pea seeds with or without seedcoats has on seedling growth.

Abstract:

:Pea seeds (Pisum sativum L. ;Alaska') with intact seedcoats (WC) and with seedcoats removed (WOC) were soaked in distilled water for 24 hours at 20 degrees . The water, containing the pea diffusate, was decanted after the second, fourth, sixth, eighth, twelfth, and twenty-fourth hour and analyzed for total nitrogen, alpha-amino nitrogen, carbohydrate, and total solute dry weight. The seeds were germinated at 20 degrees in a 16 hour photoperiod of 300 foot candles. Stem lengths and dry weights of roots, shoots and cotyledons were determined after 4, 11, and 18 days of growth. WOC seeds imbibed more water than WC seeds during the 24 hour imbibition period. Diffusates from WOC seeds always contained more solute than diffusates from WC seeds. Maltose, glucose, and fructose were not detected in the early diffusates from WOC seeds but were found in WC seed diffusates at all times. Seedlings from WC seeds had longer stems than those from WOC seeds. The dry weight of stems and roots of WC seedlings was greater than those from WOC seedlings. The dry weight of cotyledons from 18 day-old WC seedlings was less than from WOC seedlings. Water absorption by WC seeds was slower than by WOC seeds. Removal of the seedcoat allowed rapid imbibition resulting in seed injury presumably because of the loss of solutes which included monosaccharides, disaccharides, amino acids, and other nitrogen containing compounds. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that rapid imbibition disrupts membrane organization leading to reduction of seedling growth.
