Soybean germination

Cassia Inhibited soybean germination. Xanthium reduced dry weight of soybean nodules and stems, Glycine reduced dry weight of soybean nodules, roots, leaves, and stems, and Sesbanla root exudates reduced dry weight of soybean nodules, leaves, stems and fruit.

Germination for 3 days, after a 24-hour soaking period, did not cause TI activity to change appreciably for the four soybean varieties studied (43). On the other hand. Bates et al. (33) reported that TI activity In water extracts of soybeans germinated 4 days decreased about 70% (Table VI). Autoclaving for... 

Seed germination decreases phytate and Increases phytase activity (Table X). A 22% decrease in phytic acid occurs during 5 days of soybean germination (62). Phytase activity in soybeans Increased 227% compared to an Increase of 907-3756% in peas.

The germination and growth of velvet leaf (Abutllon theophrastl Medic.), a weed causing severe problems in corn and soybean fields, is inhibited by tomentosin (28) and axivalin (29), two lactones isolated from seeds of povertyweed (Iva axillaris Pursh) (44). 

Soybean root exudates were inhibiting to okra, radish and tomato germination but not to carrot or beet germination. Although radish and tomato germination was significantly slowed, soybean root exudate activity in the tomato and radish...
