Author(s): ORNELLAS, F. L. S.; SOUSA, A. O. de; ARAÚJO, M. do N.; BARBOSA, R. M.; DANTAS, B. F. Rapid tests that allow the assessment of physiological potential are essential parameters for quality seed and seedling production programs. The aim of this work was to establish parameters of a metho... ... |
Author(s): NASCIMENTO, W. M. O.; NOVEMBRE, A. D. L. C.; CICERO, S. M. The present work was carried out with the purpose of verifying the effects of seed moisture and air temperature in the maintenance of seed quality |
Author(s): FÁVARIS, N. A. B.; ROSA, S. D. V. F. da; FIGUEIREDO, M. A. de; COELHO, S. V. B.; VILELA, A. L. de O.; PADILHA, L. Coffee seeds are sensitive to desiccation and are used or stored with different moisture content values, which may affect the results of quality assessment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the c... ... |
Author(s): GOMES, S. E. V.; GOMES, R. A.; DANTAS, B. F. Seed production, quality and germination are likely to be affected by a drastic climate change in semi-arid areas predicted for the end of the century. We evaluated Anadenanthera colubrina var. cebil... ... |
Author(s): PEREIRA, R. B.; TORRES, T. B.; SILVA, P. P. da; LUCAS, G. C.; PINHEIRO, J. B.; NASCIMENTO, W. M. ABSTRACT: This study aimed at evaluating the method of inoculation of carrot seeds in a potato-dextrose-agar medium (PDA) added of mannitol. Alternaria radicina was the fungus chosen to test such meth... ... |
Author(s): MARINHO, J. de L.; SILVA, S. R. da; FONSECA, I. C. de B.; ZUCARELI, C. Abstract: Mineral nutrients play an important role in the composition of seeds, influencing the germination rate and the production of vigorous seedlings, which is fundamental for the establishment of... ... |
Author(s): FARIAS, L. A. A. de; DANTAS, B. F. Global efforts to restore ecosystems have increased the demand for seeds of native species, both from tree-shrub and herbaceous strata. However, little is known about seed ecology or germination of ma... ... |
Author(s): VILELA, A. L. O.; ROSA, S. D. V. F. da; COELHO, S. V. B.; FÁVARIS, N. A. B.; FANTAZZINI, T. B.; BAUTE, J. L. Seed deterioration induces the formation of free radicals and proliferation of microorganisms, but the application of external antioxidants may lessen these effects. The aim of this study was to inves... ... |
Author(s): MENEZES, V. O.; LOPES, S. J.; TEDESCO, S. B.; HENNING, F. A.; ZEN, H. D.; HENNING, L. M. M. Several studies have been developed to understand the physiology of seed deterioration, however, the initial steps of the deterioration process are not completely clear. Seed vigor and viability losse... ... |
Author(s): MOREANO, T. B.; BRACCINI, A. de L. e; SCAPIM, C. A.; FRANÇA-NETO, J. de B.; KRZYZANOWSKI, F. C.; MARQUES, O. J. ABSTRACT: Seed processing machines remove viable seeds from non-viable seeds and inert materials based on physical characteristics. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of each process... ... |
