  • Title: Effect of volatile and gaseous exudates of germinating seeds of some plants on the germinative potentialities of some fungal spores in relation to their ability of absorption of some sugars and nitrogen sources.

    Abstract:
    Volatile and gaseous exudates of germinating seeds of Z. mays, P. armeniaca, C. sativus, and C. olitorius stimulated the spore germination of B. piluliferum. This stimulation was accompanied with an increase in sugar and nitrogen source absorption during the spore germination. On the other hand, the volatile and gaseous exudates of the germinating seeds of P. sativum inhibited the absorption of both sugar and nitrogen source, as well as the percentage of spore germination. In case of B. cinerea, the effect of the volatile and gaseous exudates of the germinating seeds of all plants used on the fungal spore germination differed according to both the sugar and nitrogen source absorbed.
