Abstract:The aim of this study was to evaluate DNA integrity and to identify ultrastructural changes in the primary root of Peltophorum dubium seeds subjected to drying, since these changes may reflect the germination capacity. Seeds were germinated and were dehydrated when reached 1 mm in length of the primary root, until reaching different moisture contents, being then rehydrated and evaluated in relation to survival. After this procedure, different points of interest (control, 20% and 10% moisture content) were sele… Show more
