Item Characterizing zinc use efficiency in varieties of Arabica coffee(Editora da Universidade Estadual de Maringá - EDUEM, 2013-07) Pedrosa, Adriene Woods; Martinez, Hermínia Emilia Prieto; Cruz, Cosme Damião; DaMatta, Fábio Murilo; Clemente, Junia Maria; Neto, Ana PaulaAmong micronutrients, zinc (Zn) is important for coffee tree cultivation, especially in the clayey acid soils of Brazil’s southeast region, where coffee production is an important activity. This study aimed to evaluate the Zn use efficiency of coffee tree varieties using two zinc concentrations. Seedlings of 11 varieties of coffee trees were grown in a greenhouse in nutrient solution containing either 0.0 or 6.0 μmol L-1 of Zn. After eight months, we evaluated the total biomass production, leaf biomass production, concentration of Zn in the plant organs, absorption efficiency, and Zn use efficiency. All characteristics were affected by the Zn concentration. The biomass production of apical leaves was most affected by the Zn treatments, with high variability for the studied varieties. The ‘IPR-103’ variety had the highest Zn use efficiency, and the ‘San Ramon’ and ‘San Bernardo’ varieties had the lowest Zn use efficiency. The ‘Rubi’ variety had a high and low Zn use efficiency when grown at 0.0 and 6.0 μmol L-1 of zinc, respectively. The ‘Oeiras’ variety had a low Zn use efficiency when cultivated at 6.0 μmol L -1 of zinc. The other varieties studied were moderately efficient in their use of zinc.Item Effects of nitrogen and potassium on the chemical composition of coffee beans and on beverage quality(Editora da Universidade Estadual de Maringá - EDUEM, 2015-07) Clemente, Junia Maria; Martinez, Herminia Emilia Prieto; Alves, Leonardo Corrêa; Finger, Fernando Luíz; Cecon, Paulo RobertoThe ratio of nitrogen (N) to potassium (K) is important in the production of specialty coffees because the relative amounts of N and K can either suppress the formation or increase the concentration of compounds that are essential to the flavor and aroma of specialty coffees. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of different N:K ratios (w/w) and K doses on the cup quality of coffee. The concentrations of chemical compounds essentials to achieve good flavor and aroma, the N and K contents, and the caffeine contents of coffee leaves and beans were evaluated in this study. The N:K ratio and the K dose were found to be important factors in cup quality, the best quality corresponding to an N:K ratio of 1:1.56. The best cup quality was obtained from beans with greater PPO activity, caffeine, color index, and sugars and lower total tritatable acidity, pH, electrical conductivity and leached potassium. Keywords: Coffea arabica L., coffee, caffeine, fertilization.Item Production, chemical composition, and quality of Arabic coffee subjected to copper doses(Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária - Embrapa, 2018-04) Martinez, Herminia Emilia Prieto; Lacerda, José Soares de; Clemente, Junia Maria; Silva Filho, Jaime Barros da; Pedrosa, Adriene Woods; Santos, Ricardo Henrique Silva; Cecon, Paulo RobertoThe objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of copper on the chemical composition of coffee beans and on the quality of the beverage, relating both of them to the Cu leaf contents in coffee (Coffea arabica) plants. Coffee plants were grown in a hydroponic system containing 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.6, and 3.2 μmol L -1 Cu until fruit setting. Coffee bean production was evaluated, and, after the cherries were dried, the following characteristics were determined: leaf Cu content; total titratable acidity; color index; electrical conductivity; leached K; polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity; concentrations of caffeine, trigonelline, organic acids, total phenols, chlorogenic acids (3-CQA, 4-CQA, and 5-CQA), sucrose, glucose, arabinose, mannose, and galactose; and sensory quality of roasted beans. Cu increased bean yield, PPO activity, and the concentrations of organic acids, 3-CQA, sucrose, and arabinose. Total titratable acidity, total phenols, 4-CQA, and 5-CQA were reduced with increasing Cu doses. Leaf contents related to the maximum and minimum values of desirable and undesirable quality attributes ranged from 5.6 to 11.4 mg kg -1 Cu, respectively. Copper affects the production and chemical composition of coffee beans, and the attributes related to quality are maximized in plants with low leaf contents of the nutrient.Item Effect of N and K doses in nutritive solution on growth, production and coffee bean size(Universidade Federal de Viçosa, 2013-03) Clemente, Junia Maria; Martinez, Herminia Emilia Prieto; Alves, Leonardo Corrêa; Lara, Marcelo César RosaAn adequate supply of nutrients is essential for obtaining high yields of coffee. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of N, K and the N:K ratio on vegetative and reproductive growth of coffee. For this purpose, coffee plants were grown in nutrient solution containing K in the concentrations of 1.08; 2.15; 3.23 and 5.38 mmol L -1 combined with a dose of 6 mmol L -1 N, resulting in the N:K ratios (w/w): 1:0.5; 1:1; 1:1.5 and 1:2.5. The control treatment consisted of the doses 3 and 1.61 mmol L -1 of N and K respectively, resulting in the N:K ratio (w/w) 1.0:1.5. The following variables were evaluated: height, stem diameter, number of nodes of the eighth plagiotrofic branch (index branch), pairs of plagiotrofic branches and number of nodes in the orthotropic branch every three weeks from the beginning of the experiment. Additionally, it was evaluated the chemical composition of processed beans and leaves between the flowering and the rapid expansion stage of the cherry beans, production of cherry beans per plant and classification of beans according to the size. N influenced mainly the characteristics of vegetative growth and K influenced mainly the reproductive growth evaluated by the production. The lowest production resulted in the highest percentages of beans retained on sieves with holes larger than 16/64", while the highest production promoted an increase in the percentage of beans retained on sieves with holes smaller than 16/64".Item Fornecimento de boro, cobre e zinco ao cafeeiro via inserção de comprimidos no ramo ortotrópico(Editora UFLA, 2016-10) Poltronieri, Yonara; Martinez, Herminia Emilia Prieto; Clemente, Junia Maria; Ferreira, Aline de OliveiraO objetivo neste trabalho foi avaliar a viabilidade do fornecimento do boro (B), cobre (Cu) e zinco (Zn) ao cafeeiro (Coffea arabica) via inserção de comprimidos com sais desses elementos no tronco das plantas. O experimento foi instalado em uma lavoura de café utilizando o delineamento em blocos casualizados com 6 tratamentos e 4 repetições. Os tratamentos estudados foram um controle sem fornecimento de B, Cu ou Zn e duas diferentes vias de fornecimento desses nutrientes, como descrito a seguir: pulverização foliar com ácido bórico, oxicloreto de cobre e sulfato de zinco aplicados nas concentrações de 0,4%; comprimido contendo sais de B; comprimido contendo sais de Cu; comprimido contendo sais de Zn e comprimido contendo sais de B, Cu e Zn. Os comprimidos foram inseridos no alburno da haste ortotrópica do cafeeiro a 10 cm de altura em relação à superfície do solo. Ambas as vias, pulverização foliar e inserção de comprimidos no tronco, são eficientes no suprimento de B, Cu e Zn ao cafeeiro, indicando que o comprimido é uma alternativa no suprimento desses micronutrientes.Item Crescimento de cultivares de café em resposta a doses contrastantes de zinco(Editora UFLA, 2013-07) Pedrosa, Adriene Woods; Martinez, Hermínia Emilia Prieto; Cruz, Cosme Damião; DaMatta, Fábio Murilo; Clemente, Junia MariaO fornecimento de zinco interfere no crescimento, desenvolvimento e produtividade do cafeeiro e as cultivares de café diferem em suas respostas à disponibilidade do nutriente no solo. Objetivou-se, neste trabalho,identificar a tolerância diferencial de cultivares de Coffea arabica à deficiência de zinco, verificar como se dá a partição do nutriente nos órgãos da planta sob baixo e alto suprimento e discriminar que características de crescimento passíveis de serem avaliadas precocemente se correlacionam à tolerância ao baixo suprimento do nutriente. Mudas de 11 cultivares de cafeeiro foram cultivadas por oito meses em solução nutritiva nas concentrações de 0,0 e 6,0 μmol L -1 de Zn. Determinaram-se diâmetro do caule, altura de planta, número de ramos plagiotrópicos, volume de raiz, número de folhas, área foliar e produção de massa seca. Conclui-se que há variabilidade de resposta de cultivares de cafeeiro ao suprimento de zinco, sendo as cultivares San Ramon, IPR-102 e Rubi, dentre as estudadas, as mais tolerantes à restrição no seu fornecimento e a cultivar São Bernardo a menos tolerante à baixas doses de Zn. Em condições de suprimento adequado ou elevado de zinco esse se acumula em raízes e caules, que podem servir como órgãos de reserva do nutriente, enquanto que em condições de deficiência há maiores concentrações em folhas apicais. A produção de massa total é a característica de maior importância relativa na discriminação das cultivares quanto à resposta ao suprimento do nutriente.
