Evaluation of three rootstocks root system for acid lime ‘tahiti’ at Piauí state/ <br> Sistema radicular de três porta-enxertos para lima ácida ‘tahiti’ no estado do Piauí
The objective of this work was to evaluate the development of the root system of three rootstocks for ‘Tahiti’acid lime [Citrus latifolia (Yu.Tanaka) Tanaka]: Rangpur lime (C. limonia Osbeck); Swingle citrumelo [Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf. x C. paradisi Macf.]; Flying Dragon trifoliate (P. trifoli...

Summary: | The objective of this work was to evaluate the development of the root system of three rootstocks for ‘Tahiti’acid lime [Citrus latifolia (Yu.Tanaka) Tanaka]: Rangpur lime (C. limonia Osbeck); Swingle citrumelo [Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf. x C. paradisi Macf.]; Flying Dragon trifoliate (P. trifoliata (L.) Raf.var. (FD) – in the soil and environment conditions of the county of José de Freitas, Piauí, located on 04º 52' latitude S and 42º 42' longitude W and 110 m of altitude, in Aw climate. It was used the trench method. A wooden frame divided into 0.1 x 0.2 m parts was fixed in the soil profile and a digital photograph was taken from each part. These photographs were analyzed by software SIARCS 3.0 for sizing of the root system and the data gotten, submitted to the analysis of variance with Tukey test at the level of 5% of probability. The experimental design was entirely randomized, with three treatments (rootstocks) and four replications (trenches). The root systems of the rootstocks had 90% of concentration until the depth of 0,4 m, and it was observed that 60% of the roots were concentrated in the first 0,2 m. The root system of the Rangpur lime demonstrated to be superior, in lenght (cm.200 cm-²) to the Flying Dragon trifoliate and Swingle citrumelo root systems.<p><p>O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o desenvolvimento radicular de três porta-enxertos para lima ácida ‘Tahiti’ [Citrus latifolia (Yu.Tanaka) Tanaka]: limão Cravo (C. limonia Osbeck); citrumelo Swingle [Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf. x C. paradisi Macf.]; trifoliata Flying Dragon (P. trifoliata (L.) Raf.var. (FD), no município de José de Freitas, Piauí, localizado a 04º 52’ latitude S e 42º 42’ longitude W, e altitude de 110m, onde predomina clima Aw. Foram abertas trincheiras com quatro repetições, para colocação de quadro-gabarito de madeira, com divisórias de 0,1 m na profundidade por 0,2 m na largura, perfazendo cinco camadas na profundidade e seis posições na largura, definindo quadrículas de 200 cm2 na parede das trincheiras, de onde foram obtidas fotografias digitais. Estas fotografias foram analisadas pelo software SIARCS 3.0 para dimensionamento do sistema radicular e os dados obtidos, submetidos à análise de variância e posteriormente ao teste de Tukey, ao nível de 5% de probabilidade. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualizado. Os sistemas radiculares dos porta-enxertos tiveram concentração de 90% até a profundidade de 0,4 m, sendo que nos primeiros 0,2 m concentrou-se 60% do comprimento das raízes. O sistema radicular do limão Cravo demonstrou ser superior, em comprimento (cm.200 cm-2), aos dos porta enxertos trifoliata Flying Dragon e citrumelo Swingle. |
