It was tested the effect of the "crosing" substance (a substance recently synthetized at the Institute of Plant Physiology in Chisinau, Republic of Moldavia) as a growth stimulator, on the process of germination (the germinative energy and the germinative faculty), in some species of soy, pea, and bean. Measurements on the length and weight of roots and stems were performed. The treatments as durations of imbibition, and the concentrations of crosing are shown in tabel 1. In the case of small crosing concentration we can observe the stimulating effect.
