Effects of Germanium (Ge) on Growth, Yield and Ge Content of Mungbean

This study was conducted to clarify the effective application method, uptake, and translocation of germanium (Ge) in mungbean plants. The foliar application of liquid Ge at 7 mg/ℓ during the flowering period, seeds containing 38.7, 14.1 ㎍/kg of Ge, from the first and second harvesting. It had 2.5 an...

Summary:This study was conducted to clarify the effective application method, uptake, and translocation of germanium (Ge) in mungbean plants. The foliar application of liquid Ge at 7 mg/ℓ during the flowering period, seeds containing 38.7, 14.1 ㎍/kg of Ge, from the first and second harvesting. It had 2.5 and 2.3 times more Ge than the seeds raised by using granule Ge at 7 mg/kg with basal fertilization. The foliar application of Ge at 3.5, 7, 14 and 28 mg/ℓ during the flowering period, yielded a relatively high record of seeds containing 14.9~77.8 ㎍/kg and 6.9~26.7 ㎍/kg of Ge, from the first and second harvesting.
