| dc.description.abstract | Kluwek seeds (Pangium edule Reinw.) have a low germination percentage caused by dormancy due
to hard seed coat. Kluwek seed germination takes about 1 month. The purpose of this study was to
obtain a combination of treatments that were effective in increasing the percentage of kluwek seed
germination and reducing the intensity of kluwek seed dormancy. This study used a Completely
Randomized Design (CRD) factorial design. The first factor was immersion time (H) consisting of
five levels, namely H0: Control (0 hour), H1: 6 hours, H2: 12 hours, H3: 18 hours, and H4: 24 hours
and the second factor was giberellin concentration (G) with five levels namely G0: 0 ppm, G1: 25
ppm, G2: 50 ppm, G3: 75 ppm and G4: 100 ppm. Data analysis used Analysis of Variance (Anava)
and further tested with Duncans' Multiple Range test (DMRT) at a significant level of 5%. The
results obtained showed that the percentage of seed germination without immersion is 6.67%.
Soaking using aquades produces an average germination percentage of 28.33%. The most effective
treatment was GA3 75 ppm for 24 hours with seed germination of 60%, while the value of dormant
intensity is 40% | en_US |
