Submitted by Гость (not verified) on Tue, 07/09/2024 - 16:45Orenburg region belongs to the zone of risky agriculture, which is characterized by droughts alternating with dry and hot winds. Helianthus annuus L., variety ‘Poseidon 625’ is an important food crop cultivated in the region, therefore it is important to identify the influence of climatic drought already at the earliest stages of its ontogenesis. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of different concentrations of osmotic substance (sucrose) on the germination and further growth of seedlings of H. annuus ‘Poseidon 625’.
