“…A dinâmica dos nutrientes é de grande importância nos processos fisiológicos, atuando diretamente no desenvolvimento vegetativo, amadurecimento e senescência das plantas (Fergunson et al, 1999). No caso da bananeira, planta de desenvolvimento rápido, existe a necessidade de concentrações elevadas de alguns elementos para suprir suas exigências nutricionais (Teixeira, 2005).…”

“…Calcium is supplied by the xylem (Jones et al, 1983), and potassium and magnesium are phloem-mobile nutrients (Nooden, 1988). Special attention must also be paid to the influence of environmental factors on ingoing fruit fluxes as well as on the balance between mineral ions in mango, as has been done for other fruits (Ferguson et al, 1999). Moreover, shelf life can be discussed in terms of dry matter content, which is directly affected by carbohydrate and water fluxes at the fruit level during its growth.…”

“…The postharvest quality of the fruit is primarily affected by calcium, and secondly by nitrogen and boron [46]. Calcium is tightly linked to avocado fruit firmness and physiological disorders (e.g., pulp and vascular browning), in addition to the load level and fruit distribution, that also influence firmness [62]. Different levels of calcium in the fruit have been associated with a delay in ripening due to an effect on respiration and retardation of the ethylene peak [46].…”

“…Calcium absorption and transport to the fruit is very limited since it is only absorbed by the new root caps and its transport is via xylem vessels by passive flow impulse through evapotranspiration of the leaves. Thus, xylem vessels feed the fruits during the first stages of development and if calcium availability is low, the calcium content of the fruit will be low [62]. In addition, tree vigor influences the availability of calcium in the fruit.…”
