No presente trabalho, foi avaliado o efeito da salinidade sobre a germinação de sementes e desenvolvimento pós-seminal de Ochroma pyramidale através de três agentes osmóticos (NaCl, CaCl2 e KCl), em dois experimentos. No primeiro, foi avaliado o estresse salino na germinação em esquema fatorial de 3 x 6, utilizando NaCl, CaCl2 e KCl, e seis potenciais osmóticos (0,0; -0,1; -0,2; -0,4; -0,6 e -0,8 MPa). No segundo experimento, estudou-se o crescimento inicial de plântulas, utilizando os mesmos agentes osmóticos, em quatro potenciais osmóticos (0,0; -0,1; -0,2 e -0,3 MPa), no delineamento inteiramente ao acaso esquema fatorial 3 x 4. O efeito da salinidade interferiu na germinação de sementes O. pyramidale, havendo redução à medida que os potenciais se tornaram mais negativos à produção de massa seca de plântula, percentual de germinação e velocidade do processo germinativo. No potencial osmótico de -0,8 MPa, ocorreu inibição total, evidenciando que o CaCl2 apresentou um efeito inibitório mais acentuado que o NaCl, seguido pelo KCl. No desenvolvimento de plantas, o NaCl provocou maior sensibilidade, comparando-se ao CaCl2 nos maiores potenciais osmóticos.Palavras-chave: Pau-de-balsa; germinabilidade; potencial osmótico; estresse salino. EFFECT OF SALINITY IN THE GERMINATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF Ochroma pyramidale SEEDLINGS ABSTRACT: In the present study, the effect of salinity on seed germination and post-seminal development of Ochroma pyramidale was evaluated through three osmotic agents (NaCl, CaCl2 and KCl) in two experiments. In the first experiment, salt stress in germination was evaluated in a factorial scheme 3 x 6, using NaCl, CaCl2 and KCl; and six osmotic potentials (0.0, -0.1, -0.2, -0.4, -0.6 and -0.8 MPa). In the second experiment, the initial development of plants, using the same osmotic agents, was studied in four osmotic potentials (0.0; -0.1; -0.2 and -0.3 MPa), in a completely randomized design 3 x 4 factorial scheme. The effect of salinity interfered on the germination of O. pyramidale seeds, with reduction as the potentials became more negative for the production of dry seedling mass, percentage of germination and germination speed. In the osmotic potential of -0.8 MPa, total inhibition occurred, evidencing that CaCl2 had a stronger inhibitory effect than NaCl, followed by KCl. In the development of plants, NaCl caused greater sensitivity when compared to CaCl2 in the highest osmotic potentials.Keywords: Pau-de-Balsa wood; germinability; osmotic potential; saline stress.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
