Optimizing Water, Temperature, and Density Conditions for In Vitro Pea ( L.) Germination.

This study aimed to determine the optimal water, temperature, and density conditions, alongside antifungal treatments, for pea ( L.) germination in a laboratory setting, with implications for research, breeding, and microgreen production. Germination and early seedling growth were assessed across various temperatures (5 °C to 40 °C), water levels (0-14 mL per Petri dish), seed densities (5, 7, 9, and 11 seeds per Petri dish), and antifungal treatments (Hypo and Bordeaux mixture).
