Germination and seedling morphology of four South American Smilax (Smilacaceae).
Species of Smilax, also known as greenbrier, are widely distributed in Brazil and their commercial trades are carried out by the extractivism of native species. We the aim to provide information about the germination and development of seedlings in four Smilax species, different experiments were developed under controlled conditions. We evaluated two germination treatments: temperature (30 degr...
متن کاملAerial organ anatomy of Smilax syphilitica (Smilacaceae).
Smilax L. in Brazil is represented by 32 taxa and it is a taxonomically difficult genus because the plants are dioecious and show wide phenotypic variation. The analysis and use of leaf anatomy characters is recognized as a frequently successful taxonomic method to distinguish between individual taxon, when floral material is absent or minute differences in flowers and foliage exist such as in ...
متن کاملA Nuclear rDNA Phylogeny of Smilax (Smilacaceae)
Smilacaceae are a taxonomically confused, cosmopolitan family of Liliales characterized by climbing habit, reticulate leaf venation, paired petiolar tendrils, unisexual flowers, and superior ovaries. Deviations from this generalized morphology have led to the division of Smilacaceae into at least seven different genera and five sections within the large genus Smilax. In particular, taxa with co...
متن کاملEffect of Gamma Radiation on Onion Seed Viability, Germination Potential, Seedling Growth and Morphology
Seed of onion (Allium cepa L.) cv. Ailsa Craig were exposed to various doses of gamma radiation, i.e. 10,20.40.80. and 100 krad. Irradiation doses have no significant effect on seed viability, except the highest dose (100 krad) which resulted in reduced viabi lity. However, electrical conductivities of the leachates of seeds exposed to gamma radiation were higher than that of un irradiated seed...
متن کاملArborescent palm seed morphology and seedling distribution.
This study examines how the seed morphology of two large arborescent palms, Attalea maripa (Aubl.) Mart. and Astrocaryum aculeatum G. Mey, may affect their seed shadow in a seasonally dry Amazonian forest. In addition to being smaller and produced in larger numbers than those of A. aculeatum, A. maripa seeds also presented a substantially lower amount of nutritional reserves available for the e...
