The objective of this study was to determine the silicon concentration that would provide good growth in passion fruit plants. Passion seeds were sown polystyrene. After 60 days, when they approximately 15 cm tall, plants transplanted into polyethylene pots containing 1.1 kg Tropstrato® substrate. Treatments consisted four concentrations (0, 0.28, 0.55, and 0.83 g pot-1) applied as a silicic acid solution 1%. This around stem (drenched), with first application being administered days after...
Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect silicon fertilization on gas exchange, leaf anatomy, and ultrastructural characteristics passion fruit (Passiflora edulis). treatments comprised four concentrations (0, 0.28, 0.55, 0.83 g per pot) at 1% silicic acid solution (SiO2.XH2O). This applied around stems plants. first application made 15 days after seedlings were transplanted. In total, three applications 15-day intervals. pots that constituted control treatment...
Uvaia (Eugenia pyriformis) is a fruit tree of the Myrtaceae family.It has recalcitrant seeds limited longevity, making seed propagation difficult.Micropropagation an alternative method to obtain large quantity progeny plants in short period time, by using any part plant as explant.The high concentration phenols associated with chemical composition Myrtaceae, and presence microorganisms material or culture media, can make vitro difficult and/or impossible.The objective was evaluate various...
Butia capitata (Mart.) Becc., commonly known as jelly palm, is a palm tree native to the Cerrado biome. It considered an endangered species owing intensive extractive exploitation of its fruits, with slow and uneven seminiferous propagation aggravating factor. Thereby, there are some bottlenecks related seedling production that needs be optimized. Light quality intensity very important production, it controls metabolism plants consequently their growth development. Thus, aim this work...
The objective of present study was to evaluate the effect substrates and recipients on development banana seedlings. experiment performed in a randomized complete block design, using three cultivars (Prata Ana, Tropical Grande Naine), two clones Gorutuba Prata Catarina); kinds substrates: A substrate (soil + sand earthworm humus shavings) proportion 3:1:1:1 (v/v); Bioplant® Vivatto Slim® commercial substrates; recipients: plastic trays tubes, 5 x 3 2 factorial scheme, with four replicates...
Adding silicon to the culture medium may contribute, improve many growth parameters including embryogenesis and organogenesis. The objective of this study was evaluate embryogenic potential passion fruit in vitro (Passiflora edulis f. Flavicarpa O. Deg), submitted different concentrations silicon. Nodal segments plants were inoculated at five silicic acid added medium, 0.0; 0.5; 1.0; 1.5 2.0 g L-1. After 60 days, visual characteristics (% contamination, callus, bud, root oxidation),...
Banana (Musa spp.) is a crop with outstanding economic and social expression throughout the world. The objective of this study was to investigate effect different mulches types in growth production postharvest banana ‘BRS Platina’ not irrigated. experiment conducted farm Federal University Lavras (UFLA). Micropropagated plants cultivar BRS were planted field spacing 2.5 × 3.0 m (1333 ·ha-1), without irrigation. About 20 days after planting, installed: black polyethylene films, double-sided...
