Effect of sound on germination and growth of seedlings

I have just finished doing my third year project at Sussex university, England, on the effect of classical,rock and speech on ten different types of plant seeds. This experiment resulted with there being no significant differences when comparing the results with a "no-sound" control.
Do you know of many other experiments in this field going on?
