AbstractThe Sierra Nevada mountain range near the Mediterranean Sea is an unique environment known for the variety of endemic species. Nevertheless, an alpine ski station situated on the mountain has dramatically affected the landscape, leaving some areas barren. In an effort to restore the vegetation cover, laboratory experiments were conducted with seeds of Genista versicolor Boiss and Reseda complicata Bory, two shrubby plants native to Sierra Nevada. Using different concentrations of two plant growth regulators, Ethrel and N6-benzyladenine, seeds from both species were planted in soil sampled from the alpine ski resort. Surprisingly, both Ethrel and N6-benzyladenine significantly improved seedling establishment. Consequently, seedling pre-treatment with definite plant growth regulators could be a useful approach to revegetation of the Sierra Nevada mountain range.

This study shows an effective but simple method of conserving characterised populations through seed germination modification and treatment with plant growth regulators. It is tolerant to cold temperature, as would be expected of a Himalayan plant, but not tolerant to dry conditions. Podophyllum hexandrum seed dormancy has been considered to be a major constraint and most of the earlier reports recommended dormancy breaking pre-treatments such as chilling, gibberellic acid (GA3). However, in this study, we showed that the pre-treatment of seeds with IAA, IBA and GA3 at high altitude (Leh - Ladakh) to analyse this hormone effect on germination success of seeds and on the morphological character of the plant over control plant. The pre-treatment helps the seeds to give high germination percentage than control seedlings. The treated seedling showed a high degree of growth especially the seedlings treated with GA3. These seedlings in the greenhouse showed very prominent growth and development in height and leaf as compared to the control seedling plants.
