Item Growth effects of water excess on coffee seedlings (Coffea arabica L.)(Editora da Universidade Estadual de Maringá - EDUEM, 2014-04) Silveira, Helbert Rezende de Oliveira; Santos, Meline de Oliveira; Alves, Jose Donizeti; Souza, Kamila Rezende Dázio de; Andrade, Cinthia Aparecida; Alves, Raphaella Gomes MartinsThe objective of the present study was to evaluate the interference of water excess in soil on the growth of young coffee plants of the Mundo Novo and Catuaí cultivars.Plants were subjected to the following three different substrate water availability conditions: control (well- watered), continuous substrate waterlogged, and intermittent substrate waterlogged. Several growth- related traits were evaluated over the course of 19 weeks. Based on the number and quality of the affected variables from all forms of analyses, the Catuaí cultivar showed greater sensitivity to waterlogging. Both cultivars exhibited growth inhibition in response to substrate waterlogging stress, which was exacerbated by premature leaf dropping.Item Gas exchange and carbohydrate partitioning in cooffee seedlings under waterlogging(Editora UFLA, 2015-03) Silveira, Helbert Rezende de Oliveira; Souza, Kamila Rezende Dázio de; Alves, Jose Donizeti; Santos, Meline de Oliveira; Andrade, Cínthia Aparecida; Bomfim, Sandro CostaIrrigation has enhanced coffee production in several regions of Brazil. However, with the increase in irrigated crop areas, problems related to the frequent and poorly planned usage of irrigation may arise. Since there are few studies related to the physiological alterations in coffee plants exposed to water excess, we evaluated the effects of waterlogging on metabolism and partitioning of carbohydrates, levels of photosynthetic pigments and gas exchange in seedlings of two commercial coffee cultivars (Mundo Novo and Catuaí). After acclimation, seedlings with eight pairs of fully expanded leaves were cultivated under three water availability conditions: field capacity, intermittent waterlogging and continuous waterlogging. Gas exchange and the levels of chlorophyll, carotenoids and carbohydrates were evaluated during the five months after the beginning of the treatments. Waterlogging reduced the rates of photosynthesis and transpiration, leading to lower activity of the carboxylative step of photosynthesis and culminating in the reduction of carbohydrate partitioning in coffee seedlings. Although many physiological parameters were affected by waterlogging, the cultivars in our study survived for five months under stressful conditions.Item Physiological and ultrastructural analysis reveal the absence of a defined abscission zone in coffee fruits(Instituto Agronômico (IAC), 2016-10) Brandão, Isabel Rodrigues; Silva, Dayane Meireles da; Souza, Kamila Rezende Dázio de; Vilas Boas, Lissa Vasconcellos; Santos, Meline de Oliveira; Silva, Fábio Moreira da; Alves, Jose DonizetiIn order to investigate the existence of a possible abscission zone in the binding region between the peduncle and the coffee fruit, as well as the biochemical events involved in fruit ripening, we studied peduncles and fruits of Coffea arabica L. cv. “Icatu amarelo”. Coffee fruits were harvested at different maturation stages by using specific intervals of detachment force. It was observed a breakdown in the cells of the connecting region between peduncles and fruits throughout the maturation process. This disruption is probably caused by increased activity of the cell wall-loosening enzymes (polygalacturonase and cellulase) as well as by higher levels of lipid peroxidation in the final maturation stages. In general, physiological differences between maturation stages were observed and can largely explain the different detachment forces required at different stages. In conclusion, there is no clear abscission zone between the peduncle and the coffee fruit cv. “Icatu amarelo”. Nevertheless, the decrease in the detachment force throughout the maturation process can occur due to the activity of cell wall-degrading enzymes together with increased oxidative stress during the fruit ripening.Item Sistema antioxidante de mudas de cafeeiro submetidas ao excesso de água(Editora UFLA, 2015-10) Silveira, Helbert Rezende de Oliveira; Souza, Kamila Rezende Dázio de; Andrade, Cínthia Aparecida; Santos, Meline de Oliveira; Rodrigues-Brandão, Isabel; Silva, Dayane Meireles da; Alves, Jose DonizetiInvestigou-se a resposta do sistema antioxidante de mudas de Coffea arabica L. cultivares Catuaí e Mundo Novo ao encharcamento do substrato. Para isto, as mudas com oito pares de folhas completamente expandidas foram submetidas a três condições de disponibilidade de água: capacidade de campo, encharcamento intermitente e encharcamento contínuo. As avaliações foram realizadas na implementação do experimento e cinco meses após a indução dos tratamentos, quando foram avaliadas a atividade das enzimas antioxidantes e o conteúdo de ascorbato. Houve uma resposta do sistema antioxidante enzimático e não enzimático das mudas de cafeeiro à condição de estresse, permitindo às plantas suportarem o encharcamento do substrato, por um período de 150 dias. A cultivar Catuaí apresentou um sistema antioxidante mais ativo do que a cultivar Mundo Novo.
