Response of spores and young gametophytes of Cyathea delgadii Sternb. (Cyatheaceae) and Blechnum brasiliense Desv. (Blechnaceae) to different light levels Resposta de esporos e gametófitos jovens de Cyathea delgadii Sternb. (Cyatheaceae) e Blechnum brasiliense Desv. (Blechnaceae) aos diferentes níveis de luz
Light is a limiting factor for fern stablishment because it controls germination of light sensitive spores. The aim of this work was to study the effect of light levels on spore germination in two ornamental ferns native to the Atlantic forest, under natural conditions. Cyathea delgadii is a tree fe...
