Coffee seeds have limitations regarding to its conservation because of their sensitivity to desiccation and storage behavior. The establishment of a methodology for seed storage is difficult due to its deterioration. Deterioration can enhance the production of reactive oxygen species and cause lethal oxidative damage to plant tissues. The damage caused by harmful levels of free radicals can be softened by the action of endogenous or exogenous antioxidants. Recent research shows new antioxidative protection technologies, being cathodic protection a promising technique with relevant results in other recalcitrant species and even in other living organisms. Thus, the aim of this work was to verify the antioxidant effect of cathodic water in Coffea arabica L. seeds with the purpose of investigating a new technology to improve seed quality. The study was conducted at the Central Seed Laboratory, Department of Agriculture, at the Federal University of Lavras. Coffea arabica L. seeds were used. The study was conducted in two stages, in the first a preliminary analysis of the use of cathodic water was carried out in batches with different levels of quality. In the second it was evaluated the effect of light and of the imbibition period of the seeds in cathodic water. The seeds were immersed in distilled water and in cathodic water for eight distinct soaking periods, in absence and presence of light and then evaluated by physiological tests. It can be concluded that cathodic water can positively influence the physiological performance of the coffee seeds with poor quality, especially when embedded during periods between 4.5 to 7.5 hours in the absence of light.

As sementes de anonáceas são conhecidas por apresentarem mecanismos de dormência, o que dificulta a perpetuação das espécies e a formação de áreas produtivas para a exploração comercial. Deste modo, os objetivos deste trabalho foram estudar curva de aquisição de água; a germinação de sementes tratadas com GA3 e GA4+7 + Benziladenina; o balanço hormonal e a degradação de reservas em sementes de Annona diversifolia Saff e Annona purpurea Moc & Sessé ex Dunal tratadas com reguladores vegetais para a superação da dormência. Para tanto foram realizados três experimentos. Para a construção da curva de aquisição de água foram utilizadas 4 repetições de 25 sementes que foram mantidas em embebição e pesadas durante 480 horas. O segundo experimento foi constituído pela germinação das sementes tratadas com os reguladores vegetais; o delineamento experimental empregado foi o inteiramente casualizado com 4 repetições de 25 sementes por parcela em esquema fatorial 2 x 7 (reguladores x concentrações). Os tratamentos foram constituídos pelas combinações entre concentrações de GA3 e de GA4+7 + Benziladenina (GA4+7 + BA) x 0, 200, 400, 500, 600, 800 e 1000 mg L-1 i.a.. No terceiro experimento foram quantificados ABA (Ácido abscísico) e GA (Giberelinas), proteínas, açúcares...

The aim of this study was to adapt the methodology of electrical conductivity (EC) test and determine the physiological quality of seeds of B. virgilioides. Seeds were separated into three batches according to tegument color (1-yellow, 2-orange, and 3-red/black). The EC test analyzed three quantities of seeds (25, 50 and 100), three volumes of water (25, 50 and 100 mL), and six times of seed imbibition (12, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72), at 25 °C with 6 replications. Germination test was employed to compare the results. The EC test allowed the differentiation of batches in three levels of vigor - the same was observed in germination test: batch 1 presented the best seed vigor, followed by batches 2 and 3. The use of 25, 50 or 100 seeds imbibed in 50 mL of water for 24 hours is recommended.

Annonaceae seeds are known by presenting dormancy mechanisms, whose reports ranging from coating impermeable to the physiological dormancy. By this way, the present study aimed to evaluate water uptake in Annona diversifolia Saff and Annona purpurea Moc & Sessé ex Dunal seeds. For this study, seeds were placed under immersion in distilled water, and used four replicates of 25 seeds of each species, which were weighed during the 480 hours that were immersed. To determine the place of purchase of water, Annona diversifolia seeds were sealed with paraffin at different locations. Based on the results, seeds from both species reached the phases I and II of water uptake, which indicates they are not hard; however, germination (Phase III) was not reached. Annona diversifolia seeds completed Phase I with, 50h and Annona purpurea with 70h from imbibitions begin, which shows that even slowly, water is acquire.
