Abstract:Effects of different varieties of cotton seed pelletizing on the cold-risistance and physiological characteristics were studied in laboratory. As a result, ⑴ The fresh weight of radicles and simplified vigor index improved; ⑵ Contents of the soluble protein and the soluble sugar in the cotton radicles improved significantly; ⑶ The MDA content and the relative electric conductivity decreased remarkablly compared with coated control. It was concluded that cotton seeds pelletizing may effectively promote the transformation of nutrient substance in cotton seeds, seedling growth and increase the cold-resistance.
