Evaluación de la viabilidad y germinación de semillas de especies cultivadas de Capsicum spp

Abstract

THE STUDY WAS CARRIED OUT IN THE LABORATORY OF BOTANY AND PHYSIOLOGY AT THE FACULTY OF AGRONOMIC ENGINEERING OF THE TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF MANABÍ DURING THE MONTHS OF DECEMBER / 2019 - MARCH / 2020 AND AIMED TO EVALUATE THE VIABILITY AND GERMINATION OF SEEDS OF CULTIVATED SPECIES OF CAPSICUM SPP. TO DETERMINE VIABILITY, A TETRAZOLIUM SOLUTION WAS USED WITH DOSES OF 1, 0.5 AND 0.21%, AND A TEMPERATURE OF 30 - 35 ° C FOR 3 HOURS, AND THE PERCENTAGE OF STAINED SEEDS WAS EVALUATED. WHILE FOR GERMINATION, AG3 CONCENTRATIONS WERE USED AT 0, 100, 200, 300, AND 400 MG L-1 AT ROOM TEMPERATURE FOR 24 HOURS AND THE GERMINATION PERCENTAGE AND HEIGHT WERE EVALUATED AT 10, 20 AND 30 DAYS. AFTER TRANSPLANTATION (DDT).
