Lawns of modern city serve as ecostabilizing element of transformed environment. Plants of Festuca rubra L. and Agrostis tenuis Sibth. are perennial grassy plants, essential components of multifunctional high-decorative grass surfaces. Usage of biologics nanoscale particles can increase plant resistance to environmental factors and intensify their processes of growth and development. The processes of energy germination and germination of turfgrass species are decisive step during formation of high-quality lawns.
We established energy germination and germination of seeds F. rubra and
A. tenuis under universal multielements biopreparations. Morphometric parameters of plant leaf plates studied on 7 and 14 days of cultivation. The intensity of the formation of roots of plants and their morphometry analyzed.
On the 7th day of cultivation seeds of plants under usage of biopreparations increased rates of energy germination to 7-15% compared to control, but on 14th - only 5%. Studies indicate that usage of biopreparations intensifies the processes of formation of root system and leaf plates.
