Item Cycle pruning programmed on the grain yield of arabica coffee(Editora UFLA, 2019) Baitelle, Diego Corona; Verdin Filho, Abraão Carlos; Freitas, Sílvio de Jesus; Miranda, Guilherme Bessa; Vieira, Henrique Duarte; Vieira, Kezia MoraesThe cycle pruning programmed is a reinvigoration technique widely employed in Conilon coffee. This strategy may also be adopted for Arabica coffee to increase its crop longevity and yield. In this scenario, the present study proposes to examine the influence of the cycle pruning programmed on the vegetative and productive development of Arabica coffee. The experiment was developed in the field as a randomized-block design with four replicates. Treatments were tested in a 4 × 2 factorial arrangement consisting of four stem densities (4000, 8000, 12000 or 16000 stems ha-1) and two management strategies for the removal of plagiotropic branches (annual or biennial removal of branches which had reached 70% or more of their production capacity). For some variables, the treatments were organized as a 4 × 2 × 2 factorial arrangement in which the last factor corresponded to two regions of data collection in the plant (upper or lower). For all factorial arrangements, an additional treatment (control) was employed corresponding to traditional pruning (recepa). Annual or biennial removal of plagiotropic branches which had attained 70% or more of their production capacity can be adopted with no losses to crop yield. The cycle pruning programmed improves the distribution of branches, increases canopy area and prevents the occurrence of the “naked neck” phenomenon, observed in control treatment. Additionally, it provides better agronomic and productive performance; therefore, it can be used as a substitute for recepa.Item Vegetative growth of Conilon coffee plants under two water conditions in the Atlantic region of Bahia State, Brazil(Editora da Universidade Estadual de Maringá - EDUEM, 2016-10) Covre, André Monzoli; Partelli, Fábio Luiz; Bonomo, Robson; Braun, Heder; Ronchi, Cláudio PagottoExtreme temperatures and persistent water stress stand out among the main factors that restrict the vegetative growth and productivity of Coffea canephora. The objective of this study was to evaluate the vegetative growth of orthotropic and plagiotropic branches of C. canephora under non-irrigated and irrigated conditions, and their correlation with climatic factors in the Atlantic region of Bahia State, Brazil. The experiment was established with two treatments (non-irrigated and irrigated) in a completely random design with 14 replicates. One orthotropic and four plagiotropic branches were labelled on each plant. During the two-year experimental period, the growth of these branches was evaluated at 14-day intervals. Two harvests were performed to obtain productivity data. In summary, it was confirmed that irrigation resulted in an increased productivity of Conilon coffee in the Atlantic region of Bahia, Brazil. The growth rate of the orthotropic and plagiotropic branches was higher in irrigated plants. The growth rate of the plagiotropic branches was limited by the fruit load capacity. The growth rate of C. canephora branches was not limited by the minimum average air temperature in the Atlantic region of Bahia, Brazil.Item Morphophysiological characteristics of (Coffea arabica L.) in different arrangements: lessons from a 3d virtual plant approach(Editora UFLA, 2010-05) Rakocevic, Miroslava; Androcioli Filho, Armando3D vegetative structural and functional models are useful in simulations of ecophysiological and biophysical processes. The main objective of this study was to model a 3D Coffea arabica L. structure. The specific aim was to use 3D mock-ups for analysis of vertical leaf and berry distribution and light interception in coffee crops cultivated in different planting densities and arrangements. The mock-ups were built after abstraction and codification by VPlants, based on morphological measurements (orthotropic shoot height and its number of internodes; positions of second to fourth branching order plagiotropics; internode number on first to fourth branching order plagiotropics number of leaf pairs), and several hypotheses. Mock-ups were visualized in PlantGLViewer, while Silhouette to Total Area Ratio (STAR), leaf area (LA) and berry distribution were processed in VegeSTAR. Planting arrangements influenced STAR when the plants were grown in a low density (6,000 plants ha -1 ). Plant density had a significant effect on the number of berries in square arrangements. The higher layers were occupied by first order foliage and few berries, allowing more light to pass to the lower canopy layers. Berries were abundant in the first and second order plagiotropic branches, in the highest and middle layers. Light distribution was more uniform than leaf area distribution, indicative of a disperse foliage and efficient space occupation. STAR correlated strongly with berry number, especially in the upper, less shaded canopy layers, where flower induction was the most intense.
