description The Andean blueberry is a South American wild plant with a high exportation potential among all eatable fruits for national and international markets. The current research was undertaken to evaluate the effects of potassium nitrate, gibberellic acid, and indoleacetic acid on the seed germination of this specie. Results showed that seeds stored inside fruits for a month or extracted from fruits presented 70 or 82% viability, respectively, and 29 or 38% germination at day 35. The imbibition of seeds in the solutions of 200-500 mg·L-1 potassium nitrate or gibberellic acid, increased the germination percentage on 32% (extracted seed storage), and 31 or 38% (seeds stored inside fruits), respectively, as compared with control treatment, whereas the treatments with indoleacetic acid did not have a significant effect on the germination. The results indicated that seeds of Andean blueberry are characterized by some mechanisms of seed dormancy.

El agraz es una planta silvestre de Suramérica con alto potencial entre las frutas comestibles para el mercado nacional e internacional. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo evaluar los efectos del nitrato de potasio, el ácido giberélico y el ácido indolacético sobre la germinación de semillas de esta especie. Se demostró que las semillas almacenadas durante un mes dentro del fruto o extraídas presentaron 70 o 82% de viabilidad, respectivamente, 29 o 38% de germinación a 35 días. La imbibición de las semillas en las soluciones con 200-500 mg·L-1 de nitrato de potasio o ácido giberélico aumentó el porcentaje de germinación en 32% (semillas extraídas almacenadas), y 31 o 38% (semillas almacenadas en frutas), respectivamente, comparado con el testigo (sin aplicación), mientras que los tratamientos con el ácido indolacético no tuvieron un efecto significativo sobre la germinación. Los resultados mostraron que las semillas de agraz se caracterizan por poseer cierto mecanismo de latencia.
