Resumo
Este trabalho tem como objetivo elucidar alguns dos processos fisiológicos que ocorrem na formação de mudas de cafeeiro a pleno sol, por se tratar de uma técnica já utilizada por alguns produtores e viveirista sem ainda uma pesquisa cientifica mais aprofundada. O experimento foi conduzido no Centro de Treinamento e Pesquisa do Agronegócio Café, no setor de cafeicultura da ufla, onde as mudas de cafeeiro foram formadas sob quatro diferentes níveis de luminosidade: mudas a pleno sol e sob sombrites de 30%, 50% e 90% de sombreamento. Os tratamentos foram dispostos em um delineamento em blocos casualisados, com 4 blocos por tratamento e 5 plantas úteis, por repeticão, sendo as plantas conduzidas até o terceiro/quarto par de folha. As análises constituíram-se de: análises de clorofilas "a", "b" e total e análises de trocas gasosas utilizando-se o aparelho IRGA-LCA4, medindo-se a transpiracão, temperatura foliar, condutância estomática, fotossíntese líquida, concentracão de C 02 e também a radiação fotossintéticamente ativa. Pelos resultados concluiu-se que existe maior produção de clorofila "b" à medida que se aumenta o sombreamento. As maiores taxas de fotossintese líquida foram obtidas a 50% de sombreamento, provavelmente causada pela maior taxa de transpiração e maior condutância estomática. Os demais tratamentos não diferiram entre si.
The present experiment was intended to elucidate some physiological processes which take place in the formation of coffee seedlings under full sunlight. This technique is already in use by some farmers and nurserymen without deeper scientific research basis. The present experiment was conducted in the Centro de Treinamento e Pesquisa do Agronegócio Café, in the coffee culture sector of UFLA, southestern Brazil. Coffee seedlings were grown under four different intensities of luminosity, seedlings under full sunshine and under plastic screens with 30%, 50% and 90% of shading. The treatments were arranged in a randomized block design , with four replications and 5 useful plants per experimental unit. The experiment was conducted up to the third/fourth pair of leaf. The analyses consisted of: determination of chlorophyll a and b and total, and physiological analyses ( through the IRGA-LCA4 apparatus ) of photosyntetically active radiation, transpiration, leaf temperature, stomata conductance, net photosynthesis and concentration of CO2. From the results of the experiments, it follows that there is a greater production of chlorophyll b as shading is increased. The highest rates of net photosynthesis were obtained at 50% of shading due to the fact that there were greater rates of transpiration and stomata conductance, followed by the other treatments which did not differ from each other.
