Emergência de plântulas de uma matriz de Campomanesia adamantium (Cambess.) O. Berg, sob diferentes condições

Resumo

Seedling emergence of an array of Campomanesia adamantium (Cambess.) O. Berg, under different conditions. Campomanesia adamantium are shrubs with berries that are yellow when ripe, with sweet, aromatic and juicy pulp. The fruits are very appreciated by the Midwestern Brazilian population because, beyond the economic potential, gabirobeiras have important ecological and medicinal applications. The few reports concerning methods of C. adamantium propagation demonstrate varied responses of the germination process, and variation sometimes occurs for seeds planted under similar conditions. The objective of this study was to evaluate the inluence of different substrates and seed pulp extraction methods on seedling emergence of C. adamantium. Seeds were collected from a single individual. The experiment tested four methods of seed pulp extraction: a) Control: seeds sown with pulp, b) seeds whose pulp was mechanically removed by friction using ine sawdust, c) seeds whose pulp was removed by washing in running water; d) seeds with pulp soaked for 24 h. Four different substrates per pulp extraction type were then used for planting: 1) Vermiculite; 2) Plantmax ®; 3) Tri-Mix ®, 4) washed medium-grain sand. Sand was the substrate that produced the best result for seedling emergence, however there were no signiicant differences in seedling emergence between seed processing methods. The presence of seed pulp did not impact percent seedling emergence, nor did it affect average time or speed of seedling emergence.
