Abstract

The potency of soaking in digested or stock jellyfish on germination of wheat (Triticum aestivium) and lentil (Lens culinaris) seeds was studied. Also, the photosynthetic pigments, ultrastructure of leaves and minerals in the produced seedling were estimated. The results revealed that soaking seeds in digested jellyfish solution recorded the highest germination capacity and germination rate in lentil seeds. Also, improves seedlings height, number of leaves and fresh weight of the produced seedlings than those from soaked in stock jellyfish or in water. Soaking lentil seeds in stock or digested jellyfish mostly increased chlorophyll a, b and carotenoisds, contrarwisewashappened in wheat seedlings as compared to control values. A great variation in microelements and heavy metals in dry matter of seedlings that were produced from seeds soaked either in stock or digested solution of jellyfish. Some elements increased another decreased and some disappeared in both wheat and lentil seedlings. Also, the ultrastructural examination by transmission electron microscopy of seven days old wheat or lentil leaf revealed no abnormalities but some organelles as ribosomes, vesicle rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum are higher in micrograph.
