Resumo
O café é nativo de ambientes sombreados, mas muitas vezes cresce e produz melhor sem sombra. Assim, acredita-se que folhas de café apresentem plasticidade suficiente para aclimatar-se ao contraste de radiação dos ambientes, alterando algumas de suas características, entre elas os teores de clorofila. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi determinar o teor de clorofila em cafeeiros submetidos a diferentes níveis de radiação (pleno sol, 35, 50, 65 e 90% de sombra), na época chuvosa e seca, comparando os métodos de Arnon (1949) e SPAD- 502. Através da análise dos resultados obtidos pelo método de Arnon (1949) verificou-se que os níveis com 50, 65 e 90% de sombra obtiveram valores superiores para o teor de clorofila. Enquanto com o método de SPAD-502, na época seca, esses mesmos níveis (50, 65 e 90% de sombra) juntamente com o tratamento com 35% de sombra apresentaram as maiores médias. Para a época chuvosa, quando avaliado pelo equipamento SPAD- 502, o nível com 90% de sombra, apresentou altos teores de clorofila, assim como no método de Arnon (1949).
Coffee is native to shady environments, but often grows better and produces no shadow. Thus, it is believed that coffee leaves have sufficient plasticity to acclimate to the contrast of light environments by changing some of its features, including the chlorophyll content. The aim of this study was to determine the chlorophyll content in coffee plants under different levels of radiation (full sun, 35, 50, 65 and 90% shade) in the rainy season and dry season, comparing the methods of Arnon (1949) and SPAD-502. By analyzing the results obtained by the method of Arnon (1949) found that levels of 50, 65 and 90% shade had higher values for the chlorophyll content. While the method of SPAD-502, in the dry season, these same levels (50, 65 and 90% shade) along with treatment with 35% shade had the highest mean. For the rainy season, when measured by SPAD-502 equipment, the level of 90% shade, presented high levels of chlorophyll, as well as the method of Arnon (1949).
