Crescimento de tangerinas 'Ponkan' em plantas submetidas ao raleio químico

Abstract: Fruit growth of 'Ponkan' mandarin in trees subjected to chemical thinningResearch has shown that the relationship between fruit number and fruit size influences yield and fruit quality. The aim of this work was to evaluate mandarin 'Ponkan' fruits' growth when submitted chemical thinning with the application of ethephon. The plants were sprayed with five ethephon concentrations (0, 150, 300, 450 and 600 mg L -1 ), at two fruit development stages (30 e 40 mm of cross diameter). Four shoots in each quadrant with… Show more

“…However, there was no significative difference on the size of the fruits of 'Okitsu' satsuma mandarin from trees on the different rootstocks (Table 5). The size of the mandarin is an important issue for the growers, as the Brazilian consumers prefer larger fruits (CRUZ et al, 2010). Furthermore, the fruits of 'Okitsu' satsuma mandarin produced by the trees on all rootstocks tested in the present work had acceptable commercial sizes for the Brazilian fresh fruit market, as they could be placed in the 66, 70, and 74 classes (CEAGESP, 2000).…”

“…Probably this reduction in total fruit production is due to a reduction in photoassimilates demand in function of lower number of drains in the plant. This can increase the amount of photoassimilates available to the fruits and improve photoassimilates partitioning resulting in higher fruit weight and longitudinal diameter (CRUZ et al, 2010;SILVA et al, 2009).…”

“…Non-crossover (NC) and crossover (C) GEI were determined according to the Cruz and Castoldi (1991) method. Yield data was subjected to combined analysis of the variance (ANOVA) where accessions and environments were considered as random variables.…”

“…However, crossover GEI causes the lack of correlation among genotypes (Cruz and Regazzi, 1997). Because crossover GEI and environmental effects become the most important source of variation, selection of peach genotypes cannot be accomplished without variation in their performances (Cruz and Castoldi, 1991;Vencovsky and Barriga, 1992). Since peach yield is sensitive to climatic variability because change in temperature and precipitation can alter blooming and fruit development period, we considered those climatic variables to understand the influence of climatic change in peach yield fluctuation.…”
