| Candeia (Eremanthus elytropappus) is a native species from Brazilian Cerrado and presenting economic potential for the timber and pharmaceutical industry. However, the ex vitro germination rate of the seeds is considered low. In this context, the objective was to establish a protocol for in vitro germination and multiplication, aiming at the rapid multiplication of the species. For the in vitro germination medium were tested WPM; ½ WPM; ¼ WPM; MS; MS ½ and ¼ MS. In addition, Were Also tested GA3 (0.0; 0.2; 0.4; 0.6; 0.8 mg L-1) and pH levels (4.8, 5.8 and 6.8) in ¼ WPM culture medium. For in vitro multiplication, stem segments were inoculated in ¼ WPM supplemented with BAP (0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0 mg L-1). Shoots obtained in vitro were individually... |
