| description | The influence of seed germination dynamics on selected features of the seedling of 4 tomato cultivars (Beta, Betalux, Promyk, New Yorker) meant for field cultivation were investigated. It was shown that flowering was the earliest in combinations with plants received from the seeds of the fastest germination, while the greatest delay of flowering was observed in plants received from the seeds of the longest germination (after 10 days). Plants grown from the seeds which had germinated the fastest were significantly higher, had greater average number of leaves, and had greater mass than plants from the seeds germinating longer. Further observations carried out at the moment of flowering of plants of all combinations did not show any significant differences in terms of investigated features except average height of plants. |
