La conoscenza dei fattori che influenzano la propagazione di una specie rappresenta un passo cruciale nella messa a punto di strategie per la sua moltiplicazione di massa e introduzione in coltura, sia in campo che in ambiente controllato. Sono stati approfonditi alcuni aspetti della propagazione gamica di Hypericum perforatum (di cui è nota la bassa germinabilità del seme), verificando in particolare gli effetti di variabili diverse (soddisfacimento delle esigenze in freddo, temperatura, substrato, presenza di PGPR, batteri promotori della crescita). Sono stati inoltre approfonditi gli studi sulle potenzialità di moltiplicazione vegetativa della specie, da proporre come possibile alternativa all’impiego del seme. Sono state pertanto prelevate talee semilegnose da piante di H. perforatum al secondo anno di vita, successivamente poste a radicare su tre diversi substrati, con e senza l’impiego di un ormone radicante (NAA). Al termine della prova sono stati rilevati percentuale di radicazione, lunghezza e peso (fresco e secco) delle radichette. I risultati ottenuti hanno mostrato il positivo effetto della vernalizzazione sulla germinazione in tutte le condizioni sperimentali, mentre la prova di moltiplicazione agamica ha evidenziato un diverso comportamento rizogeno in funzione del substrato impiegato.

Abstract
The knowledge of the factors that can influence the propagation of a plant species is a key factor in the pointing out of strategies for its mass multiplication and cropping, both in open field and in controlled conditions. Some aspects of sexual multiplication of Hypericum perforatum (dealing with a generally low seed germinability) have been studied, firstly verifying the best seed germination conditions, in relation to temperature, growth substrate, pre-chilling and presence/absence of PGPR (Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria). Furthermore, the potentialities of vegetative multiplication for the species were studied, with the aim to suggest this technique alternatively to the use of seeds. The trial about vegetative multiplication was performed picking up semi-woody cuttings from 2-years-old H. perforatum individuals. The cuttings were put for rooting into three different substrates, with and without the use of a rooting hormone (NAA – Naphtalenacetic acid). The rooting rate of cuttings was evaluated, and the produced roots were counted and measured as for length and fresh and dry weight. The results obtained have shown the positive effect of pre-chilling on the germination percent in all experimental conditions, whereas the trial about vegetative propagation has shown a different roots emission rate with varying the used substrate.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
