Plantas sob forte sombreamento (2% ou 6% da luz solar direta) apresentaram, em relação às plantas sob maior nível de luz, menor biomassa, menores taxas de crescimento, menor razão raiz/parte aérea, menor massa foliar específica (MFE), menor razão clorofila a/b e maior razão de área foliar (RAF). Com o aumento da irradiância as plantas apresentaram...

Physical dormancy refers to seeds that are water impermeable. Within the Fabaceae, the structure associated with the breaking of dormancy is usually the lens. This study verified the role of the lens in physical dormancy of seeds of Schizolobium parahyba, a gap species of Fabaceae from the Atlantic Forest of Brazil. The lens in S. parahyba seeds ap...

Plant anatomy is useful for the characterization of species and their associated environment. Many species, because of habitat features, can show anatomical alterations of wood that permit their survival in the environment, quantity of vessels and rays, for example. Other anatomical alterations caused by structural-physiological conditions present...

This study analysed the behaviour of Cecropia glazioui Sneth. and Cedrela fissilis Vell. seedlings across a 2-50% full sun light gradient. The morphological adjustments of the seedlings to the different light regimes were interpreted as means of light interception in low light and avoidance of water stress in high light conditions. Cecropia seedlin...

The seed reserves of Euterpe edulis finished when the seedlings showed the 2nd green leaf completely expanded. This fact could be the cause of the great mortality observed in field conditions by seedlings showing the 3rd green leaf. Seedlings of Euterpe edulis, until age of five months, did not present higher growth under higher nutrition. Older se...

Axis growth commenced only 20 h from imbibition in Phaseolus vulgaris when both uptake of water and oxygen were levelling off. Cotyledonary dry material was exhausted by day 9, the greatest rates of transfer occurring from day 2. Utilization of reserve protein proceeded relatively faster than dry matter and proportionately more was translocated to...
Article
The presence of the embryo axis promotes starch hydrolysis in cotyledons of Phaseolus vulgaris and, although reduced rates of enzyme activity proceed in its absence, weight loss from the cotyledon is only significant in its presence. Application of gibberellic acid at various concentrations had no effect upon amylase or protease activity in either...
