Abstract
[Objective] The research aimed to discuss the effect of temperature and illumination on the germination of Pinus tabulaeformis seeds.[Method] The indoor germination test method was used to determine the germination rate and germination index of Pinus tabulaeformis seeds.[Result] The Pinus tabulaeformis seeds germinated well at 25 ℃,30 ℃ and variable temperature of 20 ℃/25 ℃.Illumination was beneficial to the germination of Pinus tabulaeformis seeds.[Conclusion] The suitable temperature and illumination for the germination of Pinus tabulaeformis seeds were obtained in this study,which would provide scientific basis for the artificial breeding and revegetation of Pinus tabulaeformis.
