Item Occurrence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in leaf litter and roots of shaded coffee plantations under organic and conventional management(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2021) Díaz-Ariza, Lucía Ana; Rivera, Emma Lucía; Sánchez, NataliaEvidence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal colonization of mat litter in various ecosystems plus previous reports of external mycelium of those fungi and mycorrhizal roots in litter from coffee plants and shade trees on coffee plantations suggest that they have a relationship with closed direct nutrient cycling between organic matter and living roots. This relationship was first proposed more than 50 years ago. Mycorrhizal symbiosis in tropical crops is affected by agricultural management practices. This study aimed to assess the occurrence of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in leaf litter from three shaded Colombian coffee agroecosystems under organic and conventional management. One is managed chemically, one organically, and one with a combined use of organic and chemical inputs. Leaf litter and roots were collected from the three coffee plots at three decomposition stages. Each plot represented a distinct fertilization and tree dominance pattern different from the other two plots. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi were found in decomposing leaves. The chemically managed plot showed statistical differences (p<0.05) with respect to the other plots, it had the greatest amounts of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal root colonization (48.76–70.51 %), litter colonization (36.2–69.91 %), external mycelium length (28.66–48.33 m g-1), and spore number (451.27–681.2 spores in 20 g of dry soil). In contrast, conditions on the combined management coffee plot results in smaller means of the variables evaluated. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal root colonization and nitrogen content of leaf litter varied among the decomposition stages (p<0.05). Litter quality of different tree species may have influenced colonization of plant matter within each plot. We found evidence of typical structures of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi within and among decomposing leaf litter and roots growing into the mat litter in tropical agroecosystems. This supports the thought that these fungi have a role in carbon and nutrient recycling, which are influenced by agricultural management practices and plant population composition.Item Polyol-ester impact on boron foliar absorption and remobilization in cotton and coffee trees(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2020) Rosolem, Ciro Antonio; Almeida, Danilo Silva; Cruz, Caio VilelaFoliar fertilization can be recommended to treat boron (B) deficiency in coffee and cotton. Considering that B foliar fertilizers with polyol-boron complexes can affect B uptake and mobility differently within the plant, and coffee and cotton have different cuticles and stomata density, a differential response would be expected. We aimed to study the foliar application of boric acid combined with sorbitol on B uptake and translocation in cotton and coffee. Green-house grown plants received B as boric acid and a sorbitol-monoethanolamine complex and were sampled up to 96 h after application. Boron absorption was fast, reaching 60 and 80 % in cotton and coffee 96 h after application, respectively. Uptake rates and total B absorption were similar for the fertilizers. The proportion of B taken up by coffee is greater than by cotton likely because of the greater stomata density in coffee and less likely due to the higher amount of wax in cotton cuticle. Boron remobilization is higher in coffee as compared with cotton. Sorbitol seems to increase B transport in the transpiratory stream of cotton, but impairs remobilization in the phloem since B translocation to roots is decreased in both cotton and coffee.Item O alto teor de silício no solo inibe o crescimento radicular de cafeeiros sem afetar as trocas gasosas foliares(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2011-05) Ribeiro, Rafael Vasconcelos; Silva, Leandro da; Ramos, Rômulo Augusto; Andrade, Cristiano Alberto de; Zambrosi, Fernando César Bachiega; Pereira, Sérgio ParreirasO benefício do silício (Si) no crescimento de plantas cultivadas tem sido observado em vários trabalhos. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os efeitos de Si no crescimento de mudas de cafeeiro cv. Catuaí Vermelho. O experimento foi conduzido em vasos, e as plantas crescidas em casa de vegetação, sem restrição hídrica. A partição de matéria seca entre raízes, caule e folhas, os teores de nutrientes e Si nos tecidos vegetais e no solo e as trocas gasosas foliares foram avaliados em plantas submetidas a doses de silicato de cálcio correspondentes a 0 (controle), 1,5 e 6 Mg ha -1 . O delineamento experimental foi em blocos casualizados, com três tratamentos e 3, 4 ou 18 repetições, dependendo da variável considerada. Cada parcela experimental era composta por uma planta. Em relação à altura e matéria seca total, as plantas de todos os tratamentos apresentaram desenvolvimento satisfatório, com incrementos diários compatíveis com o esperado em cafeeiros bem nutridos. Os tratamentos com silicato de cálcio causaram aumento nos teores de Ca no solo e na planta e de Si no solo. Considerando que o único nutriente alterado pelos tratamentos foi o Ca e que os teores observados na planta podem ser considerados não prejudiciais, as respostas descritas a seguir são consequência do alto teor de Si no solo. Após 130 dias do início do experimento, as plantas tratadas com 6 Mg ha -1 de silicato de cálcio apresentaram menor acúmulo de matéria seca nas raízes e aumento da relação entre a matéria seca da parte aérea e a do sistema radicular. Embora as plantas tenham apresentado menor crescimento radicular na maior dose de silicato de cálcio, a assimilação de CO 2 e a condutância estomática não foram alteradas. Cafeeiros arábica cv. Catuaí Vermelho submetidos a alta dose de silicato de cálcio apresentam redução do crescimento radicular, porém sem comprometimento da funcionalidade e do desenvolvimento da parte aérea das plantas cultivadas sob boa disponibilidade hídrica e nutricional.Item Effect of potassium sources and rates on arabica coffee yield, nutrition, and macronutrient export(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2014-09) Mancuso, Mauricio Antonio Cuzato; Soratto, Rogério Peres; Crusciol, Carlos Alexandre Costa; Castro, Gustavo Spadotti AmaralThe use of potassium (K) rock powder can be an alternative for K supply of crops. Thus, to reduce K fertilizer imports from abroad, possibilities of extracting this nutrient from Brazilian rocks are being studied. The objective was to evaluate the effect of phonolite rock powder (F2) as K source (Ekosil ® ) on the air-dried fruit yield, nutrition and macronutrient export of Arabica coffee. The experiment was carried out on a dystroferric Red Latosol (Typic Haplorthox), in Piraju, São Paulo State, Brazil, in the 2008/09 and 2009/10 growing seasons. The experimental design was a randomized complete block, in a factorial 2 × 3 + 1 arrangement, with four replications. The treatments consisted of two K sources (KCl - 58 % of K 2 O and F2 - 8.42 % K 2 O) and three rates 1⁄2-, 1-, and 2-fold the K 2 O rate recommended for coffee, i.e., 75, 150, and 300 kg ha -1 of K 2 O), plus a control (without K application). Potassium supply increased coffee yield, regardless of the source. Application of source F2 increased coffee yield similarly to KCl at the recommended K rate for coffee (150 kg ha -1 K 2 O), proving efficient as K supply for coffee. Potassium application increased macronutrient export in coffee, especially in the growing season with higher yield.Item Yield gains of coffee plants from phosphorus fertilization may not be generalized for high density planting(Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2014-05) Valadares, Samuel Vasconcelos; Neves, Júlio César Lima; Novais, Roberto Ferreira; Rosa, Gustavo Nogueira Guedes Pereira; Martinez, Hermínia Emília Prieto; Alvarez V., Víctor HugoInconclusive responses of the adult coffee plant to phosphorus fertilization have been reported in the literature, especially when dealing with application of this nutrient in high density planting systems. Thus, this study was carried out for the purpose of assessing the response of adult coffee plants at high planting density in full production (in regard to yield and their biennial cycle/stability) to the addition of different sources and application rates of P in the Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The experiment with coffee plants of the Catucaí Amarelo 6/30 variety was carried out over four growing seasons. Treatments were arranged in a full factorial design [(4 × 3) + 1] consisting of four P sources (monoammonium phosphate, simple superphosphate, natural reactive rock phosphate from Algeria (Djebel-Onk), and FH 550®), three P rates (100, 200, and 400 kg ha -1 year -1 of P 2 O 5 ), and an additional treatment without application of the nutrient (0 kg ha - 1 year - 1). A randomized block experimental design was used with three replicates. The four seasons were evaluated as subplots in a split plot experiment. The P contents in soil and leaves increased with increased rates of P application. However, there was no effect from P application on the yield and its biennial cycle/stability regardless of the source used over the four seasons assessed.
