Nutritional Status of the Cauliflower Cultivar ‘Verona’ Grown with Omission of out Added Macronutrients

Abstract: Knowledge of plant nutritional status allows an understanding of the physiological responses of plants to crop fertilization. A hydroponic experiment evaluated the symptoms of macronutrient deficiency in cauliflower ‘Verona’ and determined: a) the macronutrient contents of foliar tissues when visual symptoms were observed, b) macronutrients content of foliar and inflorescence tissues at harvest. The effect of nutrient deficiency on inflorescence mass was also evaluated. Nitrogen deficiency caused chlorosis fol… Show more

“…On the other hand 'Charlot' F 1 , fertilized twice (V9) had a highest number of leaves, 16. These values are similar to those obtained by Bianco et al (2015) at autumn cauliflower varieties. Number of leafs also increased under different fertilizations options and it was between 13 cm at the unfertilized variant and 16 cm at the fertilized variant.…”

“…Number of leafs also increased under different fertilizations options and it was between 13 cm at the unfertilized variant and 16 cm at the fertilized variant. Plant height varied between 31,2 at the unfertilized variant and 37,5 cm at the fertilized variant (Bianco et al, 2015).…”

“…This effect of N omission in reducing plant growth is widely reported in literature Bianco et al, 2015;Flores et al, 2015). An example of this type of study was performed in legumes Valeri et al (2014) verified a decrease in stem diameter and dry matter when compared to plants grown in a complete nutrient solution.…”

“…This could be influenced by the higher absorption of silicon by the plants, increasing the absorption of silicon cations (Chen et al, 2011). A different behavior was observed in figure 1D, where silicon accumulation was lower with increasing ammonium concentrations in roots, being higher with the presence of this element in the nutrient solution and NxSi** N** Si** NxSi** N** Si** NxSi** N** Si** at the same time been influenced because the ammoniacal N, causes different damages to the root system, such as reducing growth, turning plant to brown colors, and necrosis (Bianco et al, 2015). These authors suggested that the excess of ammonium also produces greater growth of vegetative buds compared to reproductive buds.…”
