Seed germination of Cannabis sativa L. under artificially simulated salt stress in vitro culture

Aim. The response of hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) to artificially simulated salt stress in vitro culture was the aim of our research. Methods. The seeds of the Hlyana variety were cultivated under conditions of salt stress, which was artificially simulated by adding a certain salt to the Murashige sulfates – 0.5 MgSO4 · 7 H2O, 1.0 % Na2SO4; carbonates – 0.15 Na2CO3, 0.30 % NaHCO3. The following straight-line regression equations have been constructed, allowing the use of model data to predict seed germination in practical agriculture, depending on the amount of increase / decrease in salt concentration in the soil.
