“…The number of fruits was a determining factor for the SST content, as it directly influences the source-drain relationship. In the second cycle, the lower number of fruits in the DLC and 2DP treatments contributed to the increase in the concentration of solutes, considering the smaller number of drains for the production of photoassimilates such as sugars and organic acids, as was observed in the 'Palmer' mango tree (OLIVEIRA et al, 2019;SIMÕES et al, 2020), melon (DALASTRA et al, 2016 and watermelon (LINS et al, 2013). In the first cycle, possibly, the higher temperature and the exposure of the wet bulb of the MBP treatment to the sun caused a water deficit in the maturation phase, and consequently an increase in the concentration of soluble solids, as was also observed by Andrade et al (2019) in the 'Kent' mango tree and by Reis et al (2013) in the 'Haden' mango.…”

Facing the fruit market’s search for more efficient production systems, this research aimed to identify an arrangement of efficient irrigation systems for the productive and postharvest characteristics of ‘Kent’ mango fruits, under the conditions of the Brazilian semiarid. The research was performed in an agricultural property in the municipality of Petrolina-PE, with the soil classified in Quartzarenic Neosol. Four irrigation system arrangements were tested: a micro sprinkler below the canopy; a micro sprinkler between plants; two lateral dripper lines per row of plant; and a ring-shaped drip strip around the plant in a randomized block design with five repetitions. The productive characteristics were evaluated, such as number and average weight of fruits and productivity; and qualitative parameters (evaluated by plant quadrant): volume, density, firmness, soluble solids content and titratable acidity. A micro sprinkler between plants provided a greater number of fruits and productivity, as well as greater firmness and titratable acidity for mangoes of the South and West quadrants; these characteristics associated with the lowest soluble solids content of the pulp, at the time of harvest, was also obtained with a micro sprinkler between plants and induce a longer post harvest time to the fruits.

“…Irrigation depths, phenological stages and cultivation cycle influenced the soluble solids content of 'Kent' mango, with interaction between irrigation depths and production cycles (Figure 4). As the water restriction was applied in the flowering and fruit maturation stages, a significant reduction in soluble solids content was observed, probably due to the higher fruit load of these plants, reducing the source/sink ratio and distributing less sugar per fruit, as observed by Oliveira et al (2019) with 'Palmer' and 'Espada' mangoes. In the fruit growth stage, the maximum soluble solids content was obtained when the irrigation depth approached the range that promoted higher gas exchange, between 79.5 and 83.6% ETc, resulting in higher production of photoassimilates, hence contributing to the accumulation of sugars in the fruits.…”

“…Regarding titratable acidity (TA) and pH of fruits, there was interaction between the applied irrigation depth and the production cycles, with no difference between phenological stages (Figure 5). The soluble solids (SS) content and titratable acidity (TA) were higher in the first cycle, which can be explained by the lower number of fruits produced, causing greater leaf area per fruit and fewer sinks for the synthesized photoassimilates, such as sugars and organic acids, as observed in 'Palmer' mango by Oliveira et al (2019) and Simões et al (2020b). Fruit pH showed an inverse behavior to that of titratable acidity, which was already expected, because the pH is an inverse logarithmic scale of the concentration of H + and H 3 O + ions.…”

Brazil is the seventh largest producer of mangoes in the world, and the São Francisco Valley is the main producing region, with ‘Kent’ as one of the main cultivars. Considering that irrigation management affects physiological events, production and fruit quality, the objective of this work was to evaluate the gas exchange in the leaves and fruit quality of ‘Kent’ mango subjected to controlled water deficit in the semi-arid region. The experiment was carried out in Petrolina-PE, semi-arid region of the São Francisco Valley. The experimental design used was randomized blocks, in a triple factorial scheme, with four irrigation depths (40, 60, 80 and 100% of crop evapotranspiration - ETc), three phenological stages (F1 - flowering, F2 - fruit growth, F3 - fruit maturation) and two production cycles (2018 and 2019), with four replicates. During the phenological stages, the physiological parameters of gas exchange were evaluated. After harvesting, the following parameters were evaluated: soluble solids content, titratable acidity, pH, firmness and peel color. Irrigation with a depth between 79.5 and 83.6% ETc during the evaluated stages promoted greater gas exchange in the leaves, greater firmness and acidity in the fruits. The reduction in irrigation depth in F1 and F3 reduced the soluble solids content, while in F2 the highest soluble solids content was obtained with irrigation between 68.24 and 74.5% ETc. The most suitable irrigation depth for ‘Kent’ mango cultivation depends on the purpose of the producer and on the phenological stage of the crop.
