Abstract

Eugenia stipitata is a fruit species from the Amazon that is important in traditional medicine due to its therapeutic properties. Estimates of seed viability in this species are still scarce, and it is necessary to develop rapid tests to determine the quality of the seeds. The aim of this study was to determine the applicability of the tetrazolium test to estimate viability and germination in seeds of E. stipitata with and without storage. The design was completely randomised in a 2 x 2 factorial scheme with 10 replications. The results of the tetrazolium and germination tests show that seeds of E. stipitata lose their viability when stored for six months in water at ambient temperature. Neither small nor large seeds stored for six months in water at ambient temperature are recommended for use with the tetrazolium test. Small, freshly harvested, unstored seeds show a germination potential of 100%. The tetrazolium test is efficient in determining the viability of small and large seeds of Eugenia stipitate with no storage.
Eugenia stipitata 种子的储藏是否会影响其萌发和四唑活力测试的效果?
Eugenia stipitata 是亚马逊河流域的一种水果物种,因其治疗特性而在传统医学中占有重要地位。对该物种种子存活率的估计仍然很少,因此有必要开发快速检测方法来确定种子的质量。本研究的目的是确定四氮唑试验是否适用于评估 E. stipitata 种子在贮藏和未贮藏情况下的存活率和发芽率。设计采用完全随机的 2 x 2 因子方案,10 次重复。四氮唑试验和发芽试验的结果表明,在环境温度下将 E. stipitata 种子在水中贮藏 6 个月会失去活力。无论是小粒种子还是大粒种子,在常温水中存放 6 个月后都不建议使用四氮唑试验。新鲜采收、未贮藏的小粒种子的发芽率为 100%。四氮唑试验可有效测定未贮藏的小粒和大粒紫丁香种子的活力。

期刊介绍: Bioagro es una revista científica del Decanato de Agronomía de la Universidad Centroccidental “Lisandro Alvarado” (UCLA). Su periodicidad es cuatrimestral y se publica en los meses de enero, mayo y septiembre. Cada trabajo es revisado por al menos dos especialistas en el área, externos a la revista, de cuya opinión depende la aceptación definitiva. Se utiliza sistema de arbitraje doble ciego. La revista va dirigida, fundamental pero no exclusivamente, a profesionales y técnicos del área agrícola. Su objetivo es publicar trabajos científicos originales e inéditos en ciencias agrícolas que enfoquen aspectos de agronomía, botánica y propagación de plantas, entomología y zoología, suelos, fitopatología y protección vegetal, ingeniería agrícola, genética y mejoramiento de plantas, ecología, procesamiento de productos agrícolas, biotecnología y sociales. También pueden ser publicados artículos cortos en los que se presenten descubrimientos científicos, desarrollos tecnológicos y resultados de diagnósticos integrales, en la modalidad de Notas Técnicas. En Venezuela, se encuentra en las bibliotecas de todas las universidades e institutos de educación superior que ofrecen carreras agronómicas, así como de los entes oficiales de investigación agropecuaria. En el exterior, la revista llega a universidades y/o institutos de investigación agrícolas de todos los países de América Latina así como Estados Unidos, Canadá y España.
