Effects of scarification and storage on vigor expression of Albizia lebbeck (L.) Benth seeds
Main Article Content
Abstract
during test period (Emer), peak day (PD), peak emergence (PE), germination value (GV), germination energy (Ener) and emergence rate (ER). These variables were evaluated at the
nursery. A general assessment of results shows the negative effects of acid and hot water methods on vigor expression of albizia seeds. It may be concluded that pre-sowing treatments, applied through dry and wet scarification, showed cut efficiency of cover and soak, respectively, as promoting methods of germination, emergence and efficiency of vigor. Except acid and hot water treatments, the rest of the treatments showed the best expression of variables related to vigor at 3 mais.
Key words: germination, emergence, greenhouse
