Due to its showy flowers and other morphological characteristics, A. radiata has great ornamental potential. In earlier work, a deep morpho-anatomical description was made, but the micropropagation protocols, which could be used for commercial purposes, are not known. Previous assays showed that cytokinin supplementation improves the multiplication rate but produces shoot-tip necrosis in the microplants. To avoid it, different modifications of the growth medium were tested, including calcium nitrate supplementation; increasing in agar concentration; indole-3-butyric acid enrichment; and change of the basal medium formulation. The effect of these changes over the damage level, number of shoots, multiplication rate, plant height (cm), fresh weight and dry weight (g), and water content (%) of the microplants were evaluated. The use of McCown Woody Plant formulation as basal medium showed the best effect, reducing the damage level and improving the multiplication rate. Additionally, IBA supplementation was effective in reducing necrotic damage. However, 0.1 mg L-1 of IBA significantly decreased the multiplication rate, while 0.01 mg L-1 led to a higher multiplication rate than that of plants grown in the control medium. In conclusion, the use of McCown Woody Plant medium and IBA supplementation should be considered in commercial A. radiata micropropagation.","PeriodicalId":19699,"journal":{"name":"Ornamental Horticulture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46380666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The substrates were arranged in a 2 × 6 factorial scheme, two sowing times (autumn and spring) and six commercial substrates (SC1; SC2; SC3; SC4; sand and vermiculite) under four replicates and ten seedlings per plot. The means were compared to each other using the Tukey test (p < 0.05). There was a significant difference between the seasons of the year, showing that the percentage of emergence was higher in spring (89%). The seedlings of Tecoma stans were shown to be nutrient-dependent both in the emergence of the seedling and in the subsequent development of the seedlings, since the highest averages of the studied characteristics were obtained in the commercial substrates, as they have nutrients in their composition, with greater emphasis on SC1.","PeriodicalId":19699,"journal":{"name":"Ornamental Horticulture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41283500","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These two technological inputs may also be a source of potential abiotic stress capable of modifying the grower´s profit. The aim of this work was to evaluate the physiological mechanisms involved in the growth of Limonium sinuatum plants in three different pre-transplant plug cell volumes and two different growing media as well as in their transplant to pots or to an amended soil. The hypothesis tested was that the negative effects of these combined abiotic stress sources could limit L. sinuatum growth and yield. Our results showed that, in response to limiting situations of root growth, L. sinuatum plants modified the expanded leaf area, the accumulation of fresh-dry weight and the partitioning of photo-assimilates. The physiological processes identified include the capacity for leaf initiation and expansion, the photosynthetic capacity, the growth rate per unit area and time, and the partitioning of photo-assimilates between different plant organs. Since these responses to different types and degrees of abiotic stress are similar to those found in plants depressed in endogenous cytokinins, we speculate that these hormones may be involved in the results obtained in this work.","PeriodicalId":19699,"journal":{"name":"Ornamental Horticulture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44835407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To validate this hypothesis, the aim of this work was to evaluate the participation of cytokinins in the process of biomass accumulation in L. sinuatum plants through foliar spraying with a synthetic cytokinin (benzyl aminopurine, BAP) and an inhibitor of the synthesis of endogenous cytokinins (dopamine). Our results indicated that spraying L. sinuatum plants with BAP increased leaf area initiation and expansion, biomass accumulation through increased plant photosynthetic capacity, and differential partitioning towards the shoot apical meristem by a positive feedback mechanism that has a threshold of optimal response close to 100 mg L-1 BAP. Dopamine spraying appeared to affect the synthesis of endogenous cytokinins, reducing the previously mentioned responses. Responses were dose-dependent, with an optimum of 100 mg L-1 BAP and 200 mg L-1 dopamine. Our results allow concluding that the level of endogenous cytokinins during the abiotic stress such as root restriction during nursery is a determining variable of the biomass accumulation process in this species.","PeriodicalId":19699,"journal":{"name":"Ornamental Horticulture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46499622","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This situation favors Brazil, which has, in its native flora, unique species in the world and with high potential for rational use for commercial purposes. The Brazilian flora with ornamental potential is little explored, and the use of species is restricted and, often, extractive with consequent genetic erosion. The use of native species from different ecosystems may constitute a future alternative of products for Brazilian floriculture. Despite the large amount of plant genetic resources, there are few initiatives for the conservation and domestication of species and improvement for sustainable use. For this reason, the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa) conserves collections of ornamental plants, and the research initiatives of these collections form the Genetic Resources of Ornamental Plants Project. In addition to conservation, it sought, in partnership with other institutions, the characterization and evaluation of the potential use of these species aiming at the completion of products for floriculture. In this way, the materials already characterized and documented make it possible to add value to genetic resources, already maintained. Currently, Embrapa has six ex situ collections of ornamental plants (Tropical species, Bromeliads, Cactaceae and species from the Pampa Biome, Amazonian Orchids and species from Cerrado) and also counts on the genetic variability of banks of other products (Passion fruit, Pineapple, Paspalum, Pepper, Pumpkin germplasm banks) that have been evaluating accessions, selecting and registering cultivars for ornamental use.","PeriodicalId":19699,"journal":{"name":"Ornamental Horticulture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44737050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In vitro bud explants of the white ‘Bacardi’ type were treated with gamma rays at 20 Gy on this scope. The explants were subcultured until M1V4 growing period occurred, and observations were made during blooming on this time. Variable flower head widths, distinction on plant heights and widths, numerous flower numbers, color and size variations of ray florets were among the mutagenic changes observed in plants and flowers. Ray florets varied in length, width, number of rows, and color. The mutation frequency of the population was estimated 1.1% and yellow-colored florets were developed whereas the control group remained white. The dendrogram was grouped into five groups with 1, 28, 31, and 41 mutants in each based on the plant height and width, plant stem height and width, number of shoots and flowers per plant, flower head width, ray florets’ number- height- color, number of leaves, leaf length and width, and weight of flowering stems. The yellow-colored mutants were located in the first, second, and fourth groups. The advantageous mutations could result in improving new varieties.

A questionnaire with objective and discursive questions was applied to the city producers (30). The production of seedlings in Dona Euzébia is economically and socially important. Most producers have properties with 5 hectares, are in activity for a range of 5 to 19 years and have between 2 to 5 employees. With the onset of the pandemic, the market for seedlings and ornamental plants in Dona Euzébia was positively modified, with an increase in plant sales, which led to changes in production and in the sales process. During the period, producers took all measures to prevent the spread of the virus. The interviews showed that ornamental plants were among the main species cultivated and among the most sought during the pandemic period analyzed in this study. Furthermore, despite the restrictions and the uncertain scenario, there is optimism among producers, especially in terms of post-pandemic sales.","PeriodicalId":19699,"journal":{"name":"Ornamental Horticulture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42315509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
