          Abstract

          ABSTRACT Handroanthus serratifolius is recognized for its timber potential and for planting in urban areas. However, its indiscriminate exploitation threatens the species with extinction. Our objective was to standardize the most representative parameters of quality for the species, which are necessary for the identification of vigor in seedlots. We sought to optimize seed production and minimize losses of genetic material and indicate the best technological, morphological and biometric variables and their correlation with the mother trees. For this, seedlots were collected from 20 mother trees identified in seed collection areas. For each batch, the physical, morphological, dendrometric and technological characteristics of the seeds were analyzed. Via the correlation matrix, it was observed that the dendrometric characteristics did not influence the characteristics of seed vigor. Among the variables analyzed, the weight of one thousand seeds (WTS) correlated with biometric characteristics and seedling formation. Therefore, WTS and biometric characteristics were the variables that best explained the behavior of the population. The repeatability coefficient demonstrated that 14 seeds are sufficient to characterize the biometric characteristics of a seedlot of H. serratifolius. Variability was observed within the population, with eight parent trees presenting superior characteristics for vigor and five presented a high value (> 58%) for seedling emergence.

          RESUMO Handroanthus serratifolius é reconhecida pelo potencial madeireiro e na arborização urbana. No entanto, sua exploração indiscriminada tem ameaçado a espécie para risco de extinção. Nosso objetivo foi padronizar os parâmetros mais representativos de qualidade para espécie, os quais são determinantes para o processo de identificação de lotes de sementes vigorosos. Buscamos otimizar a produção de sementes e minimizar perdas de material genético, indicar as melhores variáveis tecnológicas, morfológicas e biométricas e sua correlação com as matrizes. Para isso, os lotes de sementes foram coletados de 20 matrizes identificadas por Áreas de Coletas de Sementes. Para cada lote, foram analisadas as características físicas, morfológicas, dendrométricas e tecnológicas das sementes. Através da matriz de correlação, foi observado que as características dendrométricas não influenciaram nas características de vigor das sementes. Dentre as variáveis analisadas, o peso de mil sementes (PMS) apresentou correlação com as características biométricas e com a formação de plântulas. Sendo, portanto, o PMS e as características biométricas as variáveis que melhor explicaram o comportamento da população. O coeficiente de repetibilidade demonstrou que 14 sementes são suficientes para determinar as características biométricas de um lote de H. serratifolius. Houve variabilidade dentro da população, com oito árvores matrizes apresentando características superiores de vigor e cinco apresentaram alto valor (> 58%) para emergência de plântula.
