ResumoO presente trabalho objetivou analisar o desempenho fisiológico de sementes de feijão-caupi cv. BRS Pajeú submetidas à diferentes potenciais e agentes osmóticos, permitindo o conhecimento sobre como o estresse influencia na germinação e vigor destas sementes. O experimento foi conduzido no delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com os tratamentos em arranjo fatorial sendo dois agentes osmóticos e cinco potenciais osmóticos (2 × 5), com quatro repetições. Os resultados obtidos foram submetidos à análise de variância, e quando constatados efeitos significativos, foram submetidos à análise de regressão. As condições de estresse salino prejudicaram a germinação e o vigor das sementes de feijão-caupi cv. BRS Pajeú. A diminuição do potencial osmótico das soluções, reduz o desenvolvimento e o ganho de massa fresca e seca das plântulas de feijão-caupi cv. BRS Pajeú, independente da substância utilizada para indução do estresse. O cloreto de sódio (NaCl) promoveu efeitos mais drásticos sobre o crescimento das plântulas, quando comparado ao cloreto de potássio (KCl). As sementes de feijão-caupi cv BRS Pajeú submetidas à solução de NaCl com potenciais osmóticos inferiores a -0,35 MPa, apresentou porcentagem inferior a 80% de germinação.
ABSTRACT. Estimating genetic parameters in plant breeding allows us to know the population potential for selecting and designing strategies that can maximize the achievement of superior genotypes. The objective of this study was to evaluate the genetic potential of a population of 20 cowpea genotypes by estimating genetic parameters and path analysis among the traits to guide the selection strategies. The trial was conducted in randomized block design with four replications. Its morphophysiological components, components of green grain production and dry grain yield were estimated from genetic use and correlations between the traits. Phenotypic correlations were deployed through path analysis into direct and indirect effects of morphophysiological traits and yield components on dry grain yield. There were significant differences (P < 0.01) between the genotypes 2 K.V. Lopes et al. Genetics and Molecular Research 16 (2): gmr16029559 for most the traits, indicating the presence of genetic variability in the population and the possibility of practicing selection. The population presents the potential for future genetic breeding studies and is highly promising for the selection of traits dry grain yield, the number of grains per pod, and hundred grains mass. A number of grains per green pod is the main determinant trait of dry grain yield that is also influenced by the cultivar cycle and that the selection for the dry grain yield can be made indirectly by selecting the green pod mass and green pod length.
