Electrical conductivity test in Piptadenia moniliformis Benth. seeds

The electrical conductivity test is a quick, practical and objective test force; however, its effectiveness varies according to the species, quantity of seed, water volumes, soaking temperature, among other factors. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physiological quality of P.monilifor...

description The electrical conductivity test is a quick, practical and objective test force; however, its effectiveness varies according to the species, quantity of seed, water volumes, soaking temperature, among other factors. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physiological quality of P.moniliformis seeds lots by means of the electrical conductivity test, testing different methodologies. For this, two lots were tested in three quantities of time (25, 50 and 75 seeds) and nine soaking times (2, 4, 6 , 12, 24 , 36, 48, 60 and 72 hours) in three volumes of water (50, 75 and 100 mL) at 25 °C. To evaluate the initial quality of the lots, germination percentage, germination speed index, average time of germination, length and dry mass of seedlings were determined. The use of the electrical conductivity test of P. moniliformis seeds is recommended using 75 seeds in 75 mL of water for 2 hours at 25 °C or seeds in 50 mL distilled water with 50 seeds per 6 hours at 25 °C.
