Summary: The aim of this study was to evaluate the interaction between different temperatures and C02 levels in the germination and early development of seedlings of different species of pumpkin. Seeds of Cucurbita pepo - cultivars Caserta and Redonda - and Cucurbita maxima - cultivar Coroa - were sown in trays of 36 cells and held in growth chambers with different combinations of levels of C02 and day/night temperatures.
