Some Peculiarities of the Xanthium italicum Moretti Germination Process
Fruit formations of Xanthium italicum were gathered from plants, sand and a river bank. They were put in germination conditions to observe how this process takes places and what the seedlings’ growth rate is in the early stages, until the first true leaf appears. Data were processed by variance analysis; using the Duncan test, the correlations between germination and seedlings’ growth in X. italicum and the place of sampling the anthodiums was highlighted. The fruit formations’ harvesting site influences the germination process, the finding being statistically significant; between the length of hypocotyl and cotyledons there is a distinct correlation, statistically significant (r = 0.908) regardless of the place of harvest.
