Abstract
Description
A compound reagent that can significantly promote the germination of Epimedium seeds Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of agricultural technology, specifically a compound microbial agent for regulating the intestinal microbial environment of animals. Background Technology
[0002] Epimedium is a plant belonging to the genus Epimedium in the family Berberidaceae. It is used as a medicinal material.
[0003] Epimedium has pungent, sweet, and warm properties; it tonifies kidney yang, strengthens tendons and bones, and dispels wind and dampness. In recent years, with the deepening research on epimedium, its usage has increased significantly, thus requiring large-scale cultivation to meet demand.
[0004] During the ripening period of Epimedium seeds, the follicles split open, but the embryo is not fully formed, resulting in a low germination rate of the seeds under natural conditions. This is a problem for the large-scale production of Epimedium. Therefore, this invention solves the problem by providing a compound reagent that can significantly promote the germination of Epimedium seeds.
[0005] Summary of the Invention

[0007] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows:
[0008] A compound reagent that can significantly promote the germination of Epimedium seeds is made of the following components by weight percentage: 1-1.5% molybdenum salt, 4-6% alfalfa root extract, 0.3-0.6% Astragalus leaf extract, 0.3-0.6% gibberellin, 1-2% γ-aminobutyric acid, and the remainder is water.
[0009] As a further technical solution: the method for preparing the alfalfa root extract is as follows:
[0010] (1) First, peel the alfalfa roots and then dry them;
[0011] (2) The dried alfalfa roots are crushed to obtain alfalfa root powder;
[0012] (3) Mix alfalfa root powder with water at a mass ratio of 1:10, then adjust the temperature to 80℃, keep warm and stir for 4 hours, centrifuge at 5000r / min for 20min, filter, and obtain the first filtrate and filter residue.
[0013] (4) Mix the filter residue with the ethanol solution, stir at room temperature for 2 hours, centrifuge at 5500 r / min for 15 min, filter to obtain a secondary filtrate, and dry the secondary filtrate by rotary evaporation to obtain a secondary extract.
[0014] (5) Add the secondary extract to the primary filtrate, stir for 3 minutes, then ultrasonically disperse for 3 minutes, and finally concentrate to 10% of the original volume to obtain alfalfa root extract.
[0015] As a further technical solution: the power of the ultrasonic dispersion treatment is 500W;
[0016] The ethanol mass fraction is 75%;
[0017] The mass ratio of the filter residue to the ethanol solution is 1:6.
[0018] As a further technical solution: the molybdenum salt is molybdenum sulfate.
[0019] As a further technical solution: the preparation method of the Astragalus leaf extract is as follows:
[0020] Chop the astragalus leaves into small pieces;
[0021] Mix the chopped astragalus leaves with water at a mass ratio of 1:5, and then beat the mixture for 10 minutes to obtain a pulp.
[0022] Add an 80% ethanol solution to the slurry, stir for 2 hours, centrifuge at 7500 r / min for 10 min, and filter to obtain the filtrate.
[0023] The filtrate was spray-dried to obtain Astragalus leaf extract.
[0024] As a further technical solution: the mixing ratio of the slurry and the 80% ethanol solution is 1:5;
[0025] The pulping speed is 3500 r / min.
[0026] As a further technical solution: the mass ratio of Astragalus leaf extract to gibberellin is 1:1.
[0027] As a further technical solution: the composite reagent needs to be used in conjunction with irradiation.
[0028] As a further technical solution: the method of using the composite reagent is as follows:
[0029] Epimedium seeds were irradiated once, then mixed with a compound reagent at a mass ratio of 1:30-32, soaked at 5℃ for 35 hours, filtered, drained, and then subjected to a second irradiation treatment before sowing.
[0030] The single irradiation treatment is as follows: 12 C 6+ The irradiation dose was 35 Gy, and the dose rate was 60 Gy / min.
[0031] The secondary irradiation treatment is as follows: 12 C 6+ The irradiation dose was 50 Gy, and the dose rate was 40 Gy / min. Beneficial effects:
[0032] This invention's compound reagent can significantly improve the germination rate of Epimedium seeds, thereby expanding its cultivation scale. This invention primarily promotes Epimedium seed germination through irradiation treatment combined with the compound reagent. A single irradiation treatment causes slight DNA damage within the Epimedium seed, triggering its DNA repair mechanism and activating various enzymes, thus laying the foundation for subsequent seed germination. Subsequent impregnation with the compound reagent, through the penetration of active ingredients, further enhances enzyme activity, accelerates metabolism within the Epimedium seed, promotes cell division, and accelerates embryo development, further promoting seed germination and growth. Finally, a second irradiation treatment further stimulates the vigor of the Epimedium seeds and shortens germination time. Attached Figure Description
