Genes ah, aw and bls speed up the germination in tomato. The present study was undertaken to test whether these genes might also influence the subsequent growth of seedlings and young plantlets under optimal and stress conditions. Two groups of experiments were carried out: (A) stress during the stages "germination-cotyledons emergence"and "cotyledons emergence-third expanded leaf"and (B) stress during the earlier stages "seed imbibition-radicle protrusion"and "radicle protrusion-cotyledons emergence". The results have shown that the earlier cotyledons emergence and more rapid plantlet development of the anthocyaninless mutants were due to their earlier germination. They depended on the genotype and on the treatment, and could not be attributed to their greater ability to recover after stress, or to more intensive growth under optimal and stress conditions. |
