Abstract

The formation of quality forest seedlings has a direct relationship with the substrates that will be used; the germination of seeds and the formation of the root system and the aerial part are associated with the particular characteristics of each substrate. Therefore, the study aimed to evaluate the influence of different substrates on the formation of ipê-branco and ipê-amarelo seedlings. The experimental design adopted was completely random, with the treatments distributed in a 2 x 5 factorial arrangement (2 species and 5 substrates), with 4 replications. We used the following components to compose the substrates: carbonized rice husks (CAC), fresh rice husks (CA), autoclaved for two hours at 120 °C, commercial substrate (SC) Bioflora, washed sand (AL), and bovine manure (EB). The study was arranged in five treatments: treatment 1 - CAC, treatment 2 - CA, treatment 3 - SC, treatment 4 - AL and treatment 5 - EB. The following morphological characteristics have been evaluated: Collection diameter, height of the seedlings and the Dickson Quality Index (DQI) of the seedlings, which was obtained through the variables: weight of total dry matter (TWMW), weight of dry matter of the aerial part (TWMW), weight of dry matter of the root (RWMW), H and DC. The emergence speed and the emergence percentage index were lower for both species in the treatment containing 100% in natura rice husk. The commercial substrate Bioflora, enabled good performance in the emergence of both species, obtaining satisfactory results in terms of the percentage rate of emergence and a higher speed of emergence between treatments. The bovine manure substrate obtained superior results in the initial development for both Handroanthus serratifolius (Vahl) S.O.Grose and Handroanthus roseo-albus (Ridl.) Mattos.
