Özet

The effects of electrical current in breaking of dormancy of potato (Solatium tuberosum L.) tubers were investigated with continuous and repetitive currents. Then, in the case of repetitive current, dormancy was seen to be broken at potential differences of 50 and 100 volts. Five days after current application, sprouts started to appear on the tubers. © 1989, Gustav Fischer Verlag, Stuttgart. All rights reserved.
