Germination of seeds of Pennisetum hybridum cv . Paraiso affected by different harvest dates, storage periods and sowing depths

摘要：

Seeds are important agricultural material, and determine the productive potentials of a plant.Paradise elephant grass, result of the cross of millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br) with elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum Schum), produces large amounts of high quality forage.This hybrid is established from seeds, that is also one of the limitations of common elephant grass.The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of seed harvest dates, storage methods and the sowing depth on the germination behavior of Pennisetum hybridum cv.Paraiso.
