Abstract
Morphoanatomy of Myracrodruon urundeuva Fr. All. seedlings submitted to different levels of water in the soil
Highlights
The naturally occurring population of Myracrodruon urundeuva Fr
The morphology, the physiology and the ecology of plants of the “Caatinga” are typical of the characteristics of the biome since they are species adapted to high temperatures and low rain fall
To understand the relations between the plants and the environmental factors is of fundamental importance for the development of strategies for the conservation and management of natural habitats (COSTA et al, 2010; JAFARIAN et al, 2011)
Summary
The naturally occurring population of Myracrodruon urundeuva Fr. All has been decreasing steadily in the last decade due to the use people give to compounds found in its bark as anteinflammatory products. To understand the relations between the plants and the environmental factors is of fundamental importance for the development of strategies for the conservation and management of natural habitats (COSTA et al, 2010; JAFARIAN et al, 2011). The morpho-anatomical characterization of seedlings has an outstanding role in the research of species of arid and semiarid environments providing important information on the development of species, subsidizing the production of seedlings and allowing a better comprehension of plant establishment processes under natural conditions (GUERRA et al, 2006). Those evaluations give support to the interpretations of laboratory tests, the recognition of species in soil seed banks and demonstrate the effects that the environmental factors have on those individuals beyond helping to understand the survival mechanisms of those species under field conditions (NERY et al, 2007)
