Popis: | The objective of this study was to describe the morphological characters of fruits, seeds and seedlings, characterize the germination process and verify that the seed position in the fruit interferes with the seed germination of Poincianella pyramidalis . The fruits were collected from five trees in the Castro Alves, Bahia – Brazil in the area near the remnants of Caatinga sensu stricto and Deciduous Forest. The fruit of Poincianella pyramidalis is a type of legume, polyspermic, dehiscent, measuring on average 9.4 ± 0.08 cm in length and can contain up to 8 seeds per fruit, being the average number of seeds, apparently viable fruits per 100 ± 280 29.8. The seed is ellipsoid, yellowish brown color and smooth, polished and hard, being provided testa and internal tegument, with a length of 1.25 ± 0.004 cm. The embryo is axis, invaginated and straight and there was no presence of endosperm. The weight of 1000 seeds was 106.8 ± 12.4 g. Germination is phanecotylar-epigious began the third day after sowing and the complete formation of the seedling was observed on the ninth day. Seed production of Poincianella pyramidalis in the proximal position is lower compared to other positions. Seed germination is influenced by seed position in the fruit, seeds present in the distal lower seed germination of other positions. |
