Resumen

CHOQUE-MARCA, Willy; PACO-PEREZ, Víctor  y  MURGA-CRUZ, Lizett. Response of forage seed germination to saline solutions under controlled conditions. J. Selva Andina Biosph. [online]. 2020, vol.8, n.2, pp.69-79. ISSN 2308-3867.

Salinity is one of the limiting factors that negatively affect the germination, emergence, and development of pastures in the lower part of the Lauca - Oruro River sub-basin, reducing the availability of forages for livestock. With the purpose of identifying salinity tolerant forage species, the germination capacity in saline solutions of eight species was evaluated: Agropyron elongatum (Host) P. Beauv., Hordeum muticum J. Presl., Bromus catharticus Vahl., X. Triticosecale Wittmarck , Hordeum vulgare L., Atriplex cristata, Trifolium amabile (L.) Kunth., and Suaeda foliosa Moq. The research was carried out in laboratories of the Faculty of Agricultural and Natural Sciences - Technical University of Oruro; Saline solutions with four concentrations of NaCl per one liter of distilled water were applied to the seeds: 2.56, 5.12, 7.68, and 10.54 g, and control without salinity. The results indicate that X. Triticosecale Wittmarck and H. vulgare have greater tolerance to solutions of extreme salinity and little affected in their germination capacity. The seeds of A. elongatum, B. catharticus and S. foliosa significantly reduce germination, however, they manage to germinate at all salinity levels. The seeds of A. cristata and T. amabile are the most sensitive to saline affectation, germination is significantly reduced at all salinity levels, even at the highest concentration. It is concluded that these species can be used as forage for the use of salinized soils, depending on the maximum tolerance determined.
