Twelve treatments were evaluated (2x6 factorial), the two procedences being combined with six sowing methods: putamens (inner mesocarp and endocarp) immersed in water; putamen without pulp (inner mesocarp) immersed in water; seeds (almonds) immersed in water; putamens immersed in giberelic acid solution 10%; putamens without pulp immersed in giberelic acid solution; seeds (almonds) immersed in giberelic acid solution. The experimental design was randomized complete blocks with four replications. The experiment took place in a screen-house at 50% shading. The observations were taken every 48 hours for 77 days from seed planting. It was not observed significant variation (p>0.05) between fruit origin in germination and ESI. Putamens with or without pulp and treated with giberelic acid presented satisfactory germination indexes, above 30%, and superior (p<0.05) to those immersed in water. For almonds, the treatments with giberelic acid and water immersion did not differ (p>0.05) in this characteristic. Besides, significant (p>0.05) effect of the treatments was not detected on plantules ESI.porAcesso AbertoPiquiGA3Ácido giberélicoAmêndoaPutámenFrutífera nativaGiberelic acidAlmondNative speciesArtigo
