乡土树种茶梨种子萌发特性及其对人工繁育的启示

Seed germination characteristics and their significance in artificial propagatio n of native species Anneslea fragrans.

本试验研究了中国南方优良的乡土树种茶梨(Anneslea fragrans)种子在假种皮有无、不同脱水水平、PEG渗透胁迫和不同温度、光照条件下的萌发特性。结果表明:假种皮的存在抑制了茶梨种子的正常萌发;新鲜种子含水量较高(65.6%),脱水对于种子萌发特征具有显著影响,随着在干燥剂硅胶中脱水时间的增加,种子萌发率和发芽势持续降低,在经过48h的持续脱水后种子完全丧失萌发能力,表明茶梨种子属于顽拗性种子;种子萌发对PEG渗透胁迫较敏感,其萌发率和发芽势随着PEG胁迫浓度的增加而降低;茶梨种子萌发对光照并不敏感,其萌发的最适温度范围是20℃～25℃,高温会抑制种子萌发。基于种子萌发对不同生态因子的响应,提出了该物种人工繁育的合理建议。

This paper studied the seed germination characteristics of native species Anneslea fragrans in Southern China under the conditions of aril removal, dehydration, PEG osmotic stress, and different light and temperature. Aril removal benefited the seed germination of A. fragrans. Fresh-harvested seeds had higher moisture content （65.6%） , and dehydration gave significant impact on their germination. The germination rate decreased with increasing dehydration dura- tion, and the seed viability was completely lost after 48 h continuous dehydration. Soaking in 5% -30% PEG solution for 24 h decreased the seed germination rate significantly, indicating that A. fragrans seed germination was sensitive to osmotic stress. Light had little effects on the seed germination. The optimal temperature range for the seed germination was 20 ℃-25 ℃, while high temperature inhibited the seed germination. Based on the responses of the seed germination to the test factors, some suggestions were made on the artificial propagation of A. fragrans.
