Abstract
[Objective]The research aimed to study the effects of water extracts from Dicranopteirs pedata on the seed germination and seedling growth of Zea mays.[Method]The higher vigor seeds that had been selected by TTC method were cultivated in constant temperature incubator.The amylase activities of seed germination was determined by DNS(3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid) reagent.The soluble sugar content was determined with the anthrone colorimetry method.[Result]The results showed that a certain extent water extracts could reduce the amylase activities and the soluble sugar content.Low concentration extracts showed promoting function and high concentration extracts expressed inhibitory function on the seedling growth of Zea mays.[Conclusion]This research can provide important reference for further study on the Dicranopteirs pedata allelopathy.
