Fire is one of the most important factors affecting plant communities in Brazilian tropical savannas (Cerrado), but less is understood about the regeneration strategies and fire-related germination cues. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of fire on the breaking of dormancy and stimulating germination of seeds of Fabaceae (hard-seeded coat and physically dormant) and Melastomataceae (soft-seeded coat and physiologically dormant). We hypothesized that seeds of Fabaceae (Mimosa pteridifolia Benth and Harpalyce brasiliana Benth.) would have their dormancy broken after the exposure to high temperatures, while the seeds of Melastomataceae (Comolia sertularia and Tibouchina cardinalis) would have their germination enhanced after the s...
