Ecofisiología de Sarcocornia neei (Amaranthaceae) proveniente de dos humedales de la costa central de Lima, Perú

摘要: Background and Aims: The wetlands of the central coast Lima, Peru, are being negatively impacted by anthropic activity, because human settlements have been established in vicinity these fragile ecosystems. Sarcocornia neei is a halophytic Amaranthaceae, which inhabits with potential to be used as food. However, it displaced this activities, while basic aspects its biology remain unknown. Hence, our goal was investigate ecophysiology species, under greenhouse laboratory conditions, looking at possibility grown outside natural environment.Methods: Plants S. were collected both Ventanilla Paraiso Wetlands, Peru. For germination test, 600 seeds subjected different concentrations NaCl (0 M, 0.1 0.3 M 0.58 M), three repetitions for 15 days. Cuttings also planted organic substrate adding same salt, four months. At end period histological sections made protein extracts realized.Key results: A better obtained NaCl. There no significant differences growth cuttings. Histological variations found stems depending on treatments there total concentration, although overexpression low molecular weight proteins treatment NaCl.Conclusions: results show that species could cultivated saline lands or animal feed, promising decontamination lead-contaminated soils.
