“…A obtenção de mudas de morangueiro vigorosas em recipientes de maior volume de substrato foi verificada, também, por outros autores (BISH et al, 2002;GIMÉNEZ et al, 2009;HUANG et al, 2011). Estes estudos têm relatado que o tamanho da célula ou o volume do recipiente podem causar restrições ao crescimento radicular.…”

“…A produção de mudas em alvéolos com volumes reduzidos, apesar de mais econômica do ponto de vista do uso de substrato e espaço físico no ambiente de crescimento, pode ser prejudicial à produção pois, em alvéolos com pequeno volume, o espaço físico e a quantidade de substrato podem ser insuficientes para o crescimento adequado do sistema radicular, podendo limitar a expressão do potencial genético das cultivares (GIMÉNEZ et al, 2009). A provável causa é devido à maior concentração de raízes em alvéolos menores, com maior demanda de oxigênio e de renovação de CO 2 .…”

RESUMO -O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a influência do volume de alvéolos em bandejas no crescimento, no desenvolvimento de mudas e na produção de frutas do morangueiro. Os tratamentos consistiram em quatro volumes de alvéolos (50; 100; 180 e 312 mL) e duas cultivares ('Camarosa' e 'Aromas'), em delineamento experimental de blocos ao acaso, com quatro repetições, nove plantas por parcela, conduzido no período entre abril e dezembro de 2011. Avaliaram-se os seguintes parâmetros: qualidade, crescimento, desenvolvimento das mudas e produção de frutas. Mudas com torrão produzidas em recipientes com maior volume de alvéolos proporcionaram maior precocidade e produção, em decorrência do maior diâmetro da coroa e a massa seca de parte aérea e raízes. Obteve-se correlação significativa entre a massa seca de raízes, massa seca da parte aérea e o diâmetro da coroa com a produção precoce de frutas. A qualidade da muda influencia diretamente na precocidade e na produção de frutas de morangueiro. Termos para indexação: Fragaria x ananassa, propagação, mudas nacionais, qualidade, precocidade. GROWTH, DEVELOPMENT AND YIELD OF STRAWBERRY FROM SEEDLINGS WITH DIFFERENT CLOD VOLUMESABSTRACT -The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of alveoli volume in trays on seedling growth and development, and fruit production of strawberry plants. The treatments consisted of four alveoli volumes (50, 100, 180 and 312 ml) and two cultivars ('Camarosa' and 'Aromas') in experimental design of randomized blocks with four replications, nine plants per plot, being conducted between April and December 2011. Were evaluated the ensuing parameters: quality, seedling growth and development and fruit yield. Seedlings in clods produced in containers with larger alveoli volume provided greater earliness and yield, due to increase in crown diameter, and dry mass of shoots and roots. We obtained a significant correlation between roots dry mass, shoot dry mass and crown diameter with the early fruit yield. The seedlings quality directly influence on the earliness and fruit yield of strawberry.

“…A plant density of 1 plant m -2 was used (Giménez et al, 2008a;2008b). Water and nutrients were daily delivered by fertigation, using the nutrient solution adjusted by Giménez et al, (2008b) th , 2008 and screened in three crown diameter classes: from 2.0 to 3.9 mm (class 1); 4.0 to 5.5 mm (class 2) and 5.6 to 7.0 mm (class 3) Giménez et al, 2009). Runner tips of different classes were planted in separate rooting beds filled with the commercial substrate to the base of Vermiculite plus pines bark, in a density of 562 runners m -2 .…”

“…In these plants, larger crowns indicate higher vigor and faster initial growth, which allows earlier and higher fruit yield (Bish et al, 2002;Giménez et al, 2009). Runner tips in the crown diameter range between 2 and 5 mm have been considered for production of plug transplants of high vigor (Durner et al, 2002).…”

Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa D.) yield is affected by vigor of transplants. Those young and vigorous at planting lead to plants reaching higher vegetative growth and fruit yield than weak or old ones. This study aimed at determining plant growth, development, and fruit yield of the strawberry plant from bare root and plug transplants with different crown diameters. Bare root transplants were produced by rooting stolons and plug transplants from runner tips collected and rooted in a substrate growing bed. Three classes of crown diameters were compared in a 2 × 3 factorial and randomized block experimental design, with four replications, 16 plants per plot and a density of 6.6 plants m -2 . For bare root transplants, crown diameters were between 3.0 and 5.0 mm (class 1); 5.1 and 8.0 mm (class 2) and greater than 8.1 mm (class 3). For plug transplants, runner tips were screened between 2.0 and 3.9 mm (class 1); 4.0 and 5.5 mm (class 2) and 5.6 to 7.0 mm (class 3). Transplants of both types were planted at April 16 th , 2008, and at this date, crown diameter, shoot and root dry mass and number of leaves were higher in all classes of plug transplants. Ripe fruits were harvested from June 15 th to November 7 th , 2008, and fresh fruit yield was determined. Plant growth and development were determined at last harvest. Higher growth, development and fruit yield were obtained in plants from plug transplants. For bare root transplants, crown diameters higher than 5.1 mm can be used while for plug transplants the crown diameter of runner tips does not affect plant growth and fruit yield.

“…According to H o c h m u t h et al [3], not only less water is required to establish plug strawberry plants than bare-root plants, but also they grow and form flowers more rapidly. Additionally, plants propagated from plugs give higher early fruit yield [15,16] and also picking costs are reduced up to 40%, because more fruit can be harvested per unit time [9].…”

Influence of the quality of mother plants on selected parameters of Fragaria x ananassa ‘Elsanta’ daughter plants

et al. 2014

A b s t r a c tHigh quality planting material is the basis for good strawberry yields. The productivity of strawberry mother plants depends on many factors, but there is little published work on the effects of type and initial size of mother plants on the quality of daughter plants. In the presented study, strawberry mother plants (cultivar 'Elsanta') were grown in an unheated tunnel in plastic pots filled with peat-based substrate (5 dm 3 ). The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of type (fresh-dug plants and frigo) and initial size (A and A+ plants) of strawberry mother plants on selected parameters of daughter plants (crown diameter, fresh and dry weight as well as number and area of leaves). The study was carried out in 2006 and 2007. Strawberry mother plants were planted in the second decade of April and daughter plants were detached in the second decade of August. All measurements were performed on the second daughter plant on the mother plant runner. Statistical analysis showed that type of mother plants had a significant effect on number of leaves in daughter plants. Daughter plants obtained from mother plants established from fresh-dug plants had the highest number of leaves. The initial size of mother plants significantly influenced the fresh and dry weight of daughter plants. Smaller mother plants ("A-size") produced daughter plants with higher fresh and dry weight. The results obtained in the second year of the study were affected by high incidence of powdery mildew.
