| Popis: | ABSTRACT: Stimulation of seed germination may be due to acceleration of germination as well as due to seedling growth-promotion during early development. Plant hydrolysate can be applied as a stimulant. Thus, we aimed to verify the influence of the hydrolysates, obtained by alkaline or acid treatment, from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) crop residues (root and stem) on the seed germination process. Seed germination was studied with Oryza sativa (rice) and Zea mays (corn). Sixteen germination experiments of 50 seeds each were undertaken, with 4 replicates, soaked with hydrolysates diluted at 20 and 80%, in 2 and 3 mL of hydration volumes for 48 h. Germinated seeds were counted, at which point radicular protrusions were observed. Rootlets and aerial parts were collected, dried and weighed. The hydrolysates presented seedling nutrition potential to the corn, with ~50% more mass compared to the results with water at the same conditions, and the germination acceleration was not significant. For the tested rice seeds, the results were reversed, and the germination acceleration was significant with rates up to 94% after 48 h of incubation. Better results of germination were obtained with hydrolysate from acid treatment, and root or stem tobacco can be used for this purpose. |
