Shading as a means of mitigating water deficit in seedlings of Campomanesia xanthocarpa (Mart.) O. Berg

Abstract: In this research it was hypothesized that Campomanesia xanthocarpa can overcome some level of water deficiency by adjusting physiological parameters and that shading minimizes the water deficit effects while maintaining elevated photosynthetic rates and relative water content of the leaves and makes a resumption of metabolism and growth when the water supply is normalized. The seedlings were submitted to two water regimes (continuous irrigation - CI and intermittent irrigation - II), three shading percentages … Show more

“…However, shading allowed a smaller loss of water by the substrate, reflected by the stomata opening for a longer period, and favoured greater assimilation of CO 2 (data not shown) similar to that observed by Bartieres et al (2020) for the same species and cultivation condition. Water potential of the leaves determines water fluxes in the soil-plant-atmosphere system and influences cell growth, photosynthesis, and productivity (Taiz et al, 2017).…”

“…Little information is available on water and light requirements of C. xanthocarpa seedlings, given that such information might assist horticulturists or farmers in their cultivation practices, minimizing seedlings mortality rates and, consequently, production costs, as well as favour management practice and success in recuperation projects of degraded areas. C. xanthocarpa although sensitive to water deficit, exhibits a potential for recovery of photosynthesis and growth characteristics with the resumption of irrigation when cultivated under 30 and 70% shading (Bartieres et al, 2020). These authors observed in their review that this species is classified as late secondary requiring shaded sites.…”

“…Furthermore, under conditions of low light availability, some species tend to invest a high proportion of photoassimilates in increasing leaf area to maximize the capture of available light (Bartieres et al, 2020), similar to the number of The largest root areas were found in the shaded seedlings (Figure 2C), which was related to water use efficiency. In this study environment, plants lose less water because of transpiration owing to a low water vapor pressure deficit (2.33 kPa).…”

“…Similarly, to that observed for O. arborea, seedlings of Campomanesia xanthocarpa Cambess. showed reduction of A, gs and A/C i , when submitted to water restriction, however, shading minimized this reduction (Bartieres et al 2020), evidencing the mitigating effect of shading on the stress caused by water restriction. We emphasize that when comparing transpiration and stomatal conductance in Pterogyne nitens Tul., Myroxylon peruiferum L. f. and Aspidosperma polyneuron Müll.Arg.…”
