Effect of priming and different types of drying on the physiological quality of...
Melo,Giselle Márcia de; Santos,Heloisa Oliveira dos; Oliveira,Thaísa Fernanda; Cunha Neto,Antonio Rodrigues da; Pereira,Aline Aparecida SilvaAbstract: Seed vigor is one of the main limitations to meet the demanding forage market. In order to boost the productive potential and provide the satisfactory development of quality seeds and seedlings, it is necessary to develop techniques that provide quality and high productivity. With the Urochloa genus stands out in the seed production and quality, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of seed priming ...
Does nitric oxide protect Eucalyptus urophylla seeds under salt stress conditions?
Pereira,Thalita Maciel; Santos,Heloisa Oliveira dos; Cunha Neto,Antonio Rodrigues da; Pelissari,Fabieli; Pereira,Wilson Vicente; Melo,Lucas Amaral deAbstract: The germination response of seeds under artificial stress conditions is a tool for better understanding of the survival and adaptation ability of species under natural stress conditions. The aims of this study were to evaluate the protective effect of nitric oxide during germination as well as seed vigor and seedling development of Eucalyptus urophylla under salt stress conditions. The experimental de...
