Abstract
Abstract: Seeds of the genus Eugenia L. (Myrtaceae) have interesting propagation strategies, and the reactive oxygen species (ROS) seem to be related to their germination and seedling production. In this study, the effects of ROS on the germination of E. involucrata seeds were analyzed indirectly, with the application of N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), an antioxidant. The results demonstrated that the incubation in NAC suppressed and/or delayed the germination of the seeds, as well as the regeneration of roots and aerial parts. The higher the concentration of NAC, the greater the effects on seed germination and regeneration.
期刊介绍：
From 2017 the Journal of Seed Science (JSS) will circulate online version only.
Original scientific studies and communications, not yet published or submitted to another journal for publication and written in Portuguese or English, will be accepted for publication. For manuscripts submitted in English, the authors should provide an adequated version.
The SCIENTIFIC COMMUNICATION is a category of scientific manuscript which describes a technique, an equipment, new species or observations and surveys of limited results. It has the same scientific rigor as the “Scientific Articles” and the same value as a publication. The classification of a manuscript as a SCIENTIFIC COMMUNICATION is based on its content and scientific merit but it can be a preliminary study, simple and not definitive on a certain subject, with publication justified by its uniqueness and contribution to the area.
The Editorial Board of the JSS may invite leading authors of recognized reputation to compose specific Review Articles covering topics of their specialization that will convey to the scientific community the state-of-the-art knowledge related to the specific theme.
