Resumo
Este trabalho objetivou avaliar os efeitos de diferentes freqüências de irrigação sobre a floração do cafeeiro (Coffea arabica L.) Catuaí Vermelho, em campo; e ainda estudar a relação entre o potencial hídrico foliar e do solo e os teores do aminoácido prolina. O estudo foi conduzido em área experimental localizada na Fazenda Santa Clara, em Caraíbas, Bahia, Lat.14o46"S e Long. 41o20"W. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi o inteiramente casualizado, com parcelas subdivididas no tempo (Split-plot). As freqüências de irrigação (tratamentos) foram: 1 - irrigação de 2 em 2 dias; 2 - irrigação de 4 em 4 dias; 3 - irrigação de 6 em 6 dias; 4 - irrigação de 8 em 8 dias; 5 - irrigação de 10 em 10 dias. O sistema de irrigação utilizado foi o gotejamento e o manejo da irrigação foi feito com base em tensiometria, utilizando-se a curva característica de retenção de água do solo, ajustada pelo software Soil Water Retention Curve (SWRC). Avaliou-se, ao longo do experimento, a abertura floral, através da contagem das flores que se abriam (antese). Determinaram-se, ainda, os potenciais hídricos do solo (PHS) e foliar (PHF), ao longo do tempo, e os níveis do aminoácido prolina (PROL). As análises estatísticas foram feitas utilizando o sistema SAS (Statistical Analysis System). Neste experimento foi possível observar que: o número médio de flores acumuladas no tempo foi igual em todas as freqüências de irrigação; irrigações freqüentes no período pós "abotoamento" floral levaram a uma maior desuniformidade na floração; "floradas" mais expressivas foram observadas somente após chuvas. Não houve correlação entre o potencial hídrico medido no solo e na planta (folha). Os potenciais hídricos foliares e os teores de prolina tiveram boa correlação.
This work aimed to evaluate the effects of different irrigation frequencies, on the coffee tree flowering (Coffea arabica L.) Red Catuaí, in the field, to study the relationship between the leaf and soil water potential and to evaluate the amino acid proline levels. The study was conducted in the experimental area of Santa Clara farm, in Caraíbas, Bahia, Lat.14o46"S and Long. 41o20"W. The experimental design was the entirely randomized, with portions subdivided through time (Split-plot). The irrigation frequencies (traits) were: 1 - 2 in 2 days irrigation; 2 - 4 in 4 days irrigation; 3 - 6 in 6 days irrigation; 4 - 8 in 8 days irrigation; 5 - 10 in 10 days irrigation. The irrigation system was the drip irrigation and the irrigation schedule was based in tensiometry, by using the characteristic curve of soil water retention, adjusted with the software Soil Water Retention Curves (SWRC). The floral opening was evaluated along the experiment, by counting the flowers that opened up (anthesis). The soil water potential (SWP), the leaf water potential (LWP) and the amino acid proline levels were evaluated through time. The statistical analysis were carried out using the SAS system (Statistical Analysis System). It was possible to observe, in this experiment, that: The mean number of flowers accumulated in the time it was equal in all irrigation frequencies. Frequent irrigations in the post flower-bud formation period took away to a higher flowering desuniformity. More expressive "bloomed" are only observed after rains. There was no correlation between the water potential measured in the soil and in the plant (leaves). The foliar water potentials and the proline levels showed good correlation.
