Ecophysiology of coffee growth and production

Abstract: After oil, coffee is the most valuable traded commodity worldwide. In this review we highlighted some aspects of coffee growth and development in addition to focusing our attention on recent advances on the (eco)physiology of production in both Coffea arabica and C. canephora, which together account for 99% of the world coffee bean production. This review is organized into sections dealing with (i) climatic factors and environmental requirements, (ii) root and shoot growth, (iii) blossoming synchronisation, fr… Show more

“…The airflow has a direct influence on spray penetration in the canopy. Moreover, because the acaricide was applied at post-harvest, there was greater defoliation of the Arabica coffee plants (Da Matta et al 2007), and therefore a lower barrier for penetration and spray deposition.…”

“…However, there was a decrease in the percent coverage and droplet density from the upper to the lower positions of the canopy (Table 5). This is attributed to a greater overlap of branches in the upper canopy, if compared to the lower parts of the plants (Da Matta et al 2007). This results in an increase in leaf density and, therefore, reduces the penetration of the spray in the upper part of the canopy.…”

“…Multiple factors may alter the biennial yield cycle of coffee plants, which, basically, is associated with the lack of synchronism between their vegetative and reproductive growth (Da Matta et al, 2007). Mineral nutrition stands out in this respect (Valadares et al, 2013).…”

“…Costa Rica 95, o transporte de fotoassimilados para os frutos foi quatro vezes superior ao observado para os ramos durante o terceiro ciclo de produção da cultura. Em decorrência dessa elevada capacidade de acúmulo de carboidratos Da Matta et al (2008), verificaram que, na fase final de crescimento, os frutos podem acumular até 95% do N absorvido, constituindo-se, desta forma, também em potente dreno desse nutriente. Dwomoh et al (2008) verificaram relação linear positiva entre doses de N fornecidas a cafeeiros e níveis de N dos frutos.…”
