- This study was conducted to determine the effects of scarification temperature, and sulfuric acid treatments on seed germination of white lotus collected from the Muan districts, Jeonnam in Korea. Without scarification, white lotus seeds were not germinated at all at 15 days after seeding. However, seeds sacrificed at basal parts showed 100% germination rate at 25 ℃ 6 days after seeding. All the seeds floated (0.90 g) and so aked (1.18 g) in the water were completely germinated. Especially, the lotus seeds soaked in the water at 25 ℃ showed high germination rate. Seeds treated with 80% sulfuric acid for 40-160 hours were germinated completely within 6 days af ter seeding. No difference in seed germination rate of white lotus stored up to 0, 12 and 24 months after harvest was obser ved. Overall results would be useful means for propagation and production of white lotus.
