pycnanthum

UFJS, Brazil
Eriosema (DC) Desv. is a genre present in Africa and America. 30 species in Brazil 19 of which are Cerrado species such as E.
pycnanthum. This species is a subcultural leguminous found in soils of the Iron Quadrangle of Minas Gerais and in the region of
Itapecerica, where it is as natural cicatrizant. Although it is used in traditional medicine, there are no studies aimed the germinative
effectiveness in vitro of this species. The seeds obtained in the field were disinfested with hydroaalcoholic solution (70%-1’) followed by
hypochlorite (1%-15’) and then treated in KNO3 (2%). The variables of number of groups, time in KNO 3, time at storage were defined
by analysis of variables by statistical software SISVAR (Ferreira, 2011). As seeds were inoculated with or without the integument in
tubes with MS medium supplemented with 30 g/L of sucrose and solidified with 6 g/L of agar at pH 5.7±0.1. It was evaluated if light
(40 µmol, 45 days I in a 16-hour photoperiod affect the germination. Tetrazolium Bromide (1%) was used as a marker of the electron
transport chain. Seeds with tegument for 24 hours.
