Table 2. Effect of PEG 6000 On Germination (%) in Groundnut
The document presents results from an experiment that evaluated the effect of polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG 6000) on various parameters of groundnut germination and growth. The parameters measured included germination percentage, root length, shoot length, vigour index, and stress tolerance index. The experiment involved three concentrations of PEG 6000 (T1, T2, T3) with the lowest concentration in T1 and highest in T3. Across all parameters, the mean values generally decreased from T1 to T3, indicating that increasing PEG 6000 concentration inhibited germination and reduced plant growth in groundnut.
