The objective of this research was to determine the minimal, optimal and maximal temperatures for seed germination of Lotus subbiflorus Lag., using germination percentage, speed, frequency, informational entropy and enthalpy of activation of germination. The experiment was carried out in two lots with four replicates of 100 seeds each. The data were submitted to variance analysis and means were compared by Tukey’s test. Eight constant temperatures (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 ºC) and light exposition (darkness […]
