In order to highlight the diversity of responses to environmental stimuli in the regeneration by
seeds and to clarify whether the responses of germination to such stimuli are related to seed
size we compared the effects of light, diurnal variation in temperature and smoke for seven
pioneer species from Central Amazon: Bellucia grossularioides, Byrsonima chrysophylla,
Cecropia sciadophylla, Croton lanjouwensis, Isertia hypoleuca, Jacaranda copaia and
Vismia cayennensis. Each species was subject to three conditions of temperature in light and
darkness: 25 °C and alternating temperature of 20-30 ºC and 15-35 ºC for 12 hours. The
germination in light and darkness was evaluated with and without solution of smoke water in
a concentration of 1:50. For each species, the effects of light, temperature and smoke on the
percentage and average time of germination was analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis and Wilcoxon
with 5% probability. The influence of the seed mass on germination was tested by simple
linear regression versus rates of relative light germination (RGL) and relative germination on
alternating temperatures (RGT). We found a relationship between seed size, the type of
dormancy and conditions for germination. Although all the seeds of this study were
considered photoblastic it was possible to detect a declining demand of light and constant
temperature with increasing seed size. The application of smoke water confirmed the negative
relationship between seed size and requirement of light and tolerance to alternating
temperature. In general, it seems that small seeds need light and constant temperature for
germination, the extent to which the amount of the internal resources increases, the seeds
become able to germinate in the dark and alternating temperatures. |
