La propagación se realiza a través de semillas, sin embargo, en relación con la información sobre los factores que pueden afectar a la viabilidad de la germinación son escasos. El cultivo de la uchuva en Brasil se está expandiendo principalmente en el Sur. Las bayas tienen un alto valor comercial, siendo muy nutritivo y sabroso. La uchuva (Physalis peruviana L.) es una fruta nativa de los Andes con gran aceptación en el mercado nacional e internacional. Keywords: Physalis peruviana L., cape gooseberry, physiological potential, coating polymers, storage. Seed coating increases the germination percentage and speed. The physalis fruit cold storage for seven days does not affect the germination viability of the seeds. Germination was evaluated seven, 14 and 21 days after sowing to calculate the germination rate index. The experimental design was completely randomized in a 2x3 factorial, considering two fruit storage conditions (environment and cooling) x and three coating polymers to film-coat the seeds (Blue AG L-204® DISCO, Red AG L-203®DISCO, water), with five replications and one hundred seeds per plot. Thus, the goal of this study was to assess the effects of storage and of film coating on the germination potential of physalis seeds. However, information concerning factors that could affect germination viability are scarce. Physalis cultivation in Brazil is currently expanding mainly southwards. The berries have high commercial value, being very nutritious and tasty. Physalis (Physalis peruviana L.) is a native fruit of the Andes widely accepted in the national and international market. ❾l enfriamiento de los frutos y el recubrimiento de película de las semillas afecta al potencial de germinación de la uchuva?Īniela Pilar Campos de Melo 1,* Carlos de Melo e Silva-Neto 1 Alexsander Seleguini 1 Paulo Marçal Fernandes 2ġ Federal University of Goiás, Horticulture Sector, Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil.Ģ Federal University of Goiás, Phytosanitary Sector, Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil.
