“…On the other hand, somatic embryogenesis has been optimized for several Passiflora species from mature and immature zygotic embryos in media supplemented with different combinations of 2,4-D (8.8-72.4 µM) and 4.5 µM BA (Table 1). Among the ornamental passion flowers, Passiflora cincinnata has showing an excellent in vitro performance thanks to its high regenerant formation frequency (Lombardi et al, 2007;Silva et al, 2009;Dias et al, 2009;Silva et al, 2011, Faleiro et al, 2019. Somatic embryogenesis systems have been established for this species from root explants (Reis et al, 2003) and mature zygotic embryos (Silva et al, 2009).…”

The ornamental flower sector has growing over the past years worldwide with potential for further expansion. Among the ornamental plants, Passiflora species have been gaining ground in the market, mainly in European and North American countries. However, the market aiming the use of these species in ornamentation is still poorly explored. The inclusion of passion flower in the list of ornamental plants is related to the peculiar characteristics of the flower as it is complex structure, capacity of flowering all year long and also by the abundance and exuberance of the leaves, which in many species adds an ornamental value. Among the biotechnological tools for the production of ornamental plants, tissue culture has been outstanding in the cloning of elite genotypes, with high phytosanitary quality and large scale production. In addition, it offers possibilities of producing new varieties with characteristics peculiar to the market of ornamental plants. The diversity of wild Passiflora opens perspectives to the conservation, market and production of ornamental Passiflora cultivars.

“…Sour passion fruit ( Passiflora edulis Sims) is a tropical plant species native to Brazil that contributes nearly 65% of the yield worldwide (FAO, 2017). The fruits are appreciated by their flavour, leaf extracts are used to for their soothing properties and for cosmetics, and plants can be commercialized as ornamentals (Faleiro et al., 2018).…”

Scab caused by the Cladosporium cladosporioides complex is one of the most important diseases affecting passion fruit yield and fruit quality. Standard area diagrams are useful tools to improve the accuracy and reliability of the estimates of disease severity in many pathosystems. The interpretation of the accuracy of the resulting disease data may be the basis for providing better disease management. This study aimed to develop and validate standard area diagrams (SADs) to quantify scab severity of entire‐margined leaves of sour passion fruit plants. The SADs are composed of ten images of scab severity values (0.4%, 3.5%, 5.4%, 8.0%, 11.1%, 16.2%, 26.1%, 38.2%, 47.9% and 58.9%). Twenty raters (ten experienced and ten inexperienced ones) evaluated the SADs. The raters estimated the same set of fifty images twice. In the examination, the SADs were used, while in the second examination, they were not used. Accuracy was significantly improved by using the SADs. The coefficients of bias (Cb) were 0.96 and 0.98 for the experienced raters and 0.75 and 0.98 for the inexperienced raters without and with SADs, respectively. The correlation coefficient (r) values were 0.95 and 0.97 for the experienced raters and 0.89 and 0.97 for the inexperienced raters without and with the use of the SADs, respectively. Lin's concordance correlation coefficient (ρc) values were 0.91 and 0.95 for the experienced raters and 0.66 and 0.95 for the inexperienced raters without and with the use of the SADs, respectively. Moreover, the coefficient of determination (R2) significantly improved when the SADs were used. The SADs proposed in this study, if properly used, may improve both the accuracy and reliability during the evaluation of scab severity of entire‐margined leaves of sour passion fruit plants.

“…Yellow passion fruit is commercially propagated by seed, since it is a practical and cheap method (Roncatto et al, 2008a;Faleiro et al, 2019). However, since seedlings have segregation due to sexual autoincompatibility, the use of local varieties leads to a wide variation for fruit yield and size, as well as to irregular vineyard shape, and higher susceptibility to pests and diseases (Albuquerque Junior et al, 2013).…”

“…(Albuquerque Junior et al, 2013;Alexandre et al, 2014), this method has not been commercially used for most of the species in a massive way. Cutting methods are very expensive and highly complex (Faleiro et al, 2019); moreover, there is a lack of information on the most adequate types of cutting and potting media, and on the use of plant growth regulators for rooting.…”

The objective of this work was to evaluate types of cuttings, indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) concentrations, and potting media on the rooting of passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) cultivars, and to compare the initial performance of flowering-competent cuttings cultivated in a trellising system or in a nonstaking method on ground covered with plastic mulch. The passion fruit cultivars evaluated were BRS Gigante Amarelo, Isla Redondo Amarelo, and FB 200 Yellow Master were evaluated. The assessed treatments were: softwood or semi-hardwood cuttings; five concentrations of IBA (0, 500, 1,000, 2,000, and 4,000 mg L-1); and the pine bark or phenolic foam potting media. Initial growth, fruit yield, and bacteriosis severity were evaluated in the field in flowering-competent cuttings and seedlings, both in the trellising system and in the nonstaking method on mulched ground. For the evaluated cultivars, a high rooting rate (>90%) was observed for both softwood and semi-hardwood cuttings grown in phenolic foam or decomposed pine bark for potting media, regardless of the IBA concentration. In the espalier system, 14 months after transplanting, fruit yield was 45% higher for cuttings than for seedlings. Unstaked plants had a low number of flowers and fruit set, and a great damage by bacteriosis according to the used cultivar. The evaluated cultivars can be propagated either by softwood or semi-hardwood cuttings, in phenolic foam or decomposed pine bark, without IBA application. Flowering-competent cuttings have the potential to anticipate the production in the trellised cultivation of yellow passion fruit.
