Kajian Biokimiawi Perkembangan Daya Berkecambah Benih Aren

Abstract

This research was to study the correlation between biochemical seeds content toward its viability and to determine the seed age when the maximum viability occurred. The Randomized Complete Block Design was used in this experiment, consist of nine variation of seed ages and three replication of every seed ages. Analysis of Correlation and Regression and 5% level of DMRT were used in this experiment. The result of this experiment were: I. there is a positive and closed correlation between aren seed viability and its biochemical content; 2. the maximum viability of the aren seeds occur at the age of 26 month after anthesis.
