Abstract
The effects of some root stimulants and a mercurial fungicide on the germination of sugar cane were studied under late planting conditions. Their possible influence on other agronomic characters of the sugar cane plants were also investigated. Germination was found to be slightly but not significantly higher in agallol when in alpha naphthalene acetic acid, ethyl alcohol, ammonium phosphate and ordinary tap water treatments.
Seedpieces treated with agallol produced statistically taller plants than those treated with ammonium phosphate from the sixth up to the sixteenth week, suggesting a stimulatory effect of agallol on germination and early growth.
