Data were obtained from an experiment carried out in 2005 in the municipality of Vista Alegre do Alto, São Paulo, Brazil. The parameters of models were adjusted by the least squares method using the Gauss-Newton algorithm implemented in the R software. Assumptions of normality, homogeneity and independence of residues were verified based on Shapiro-Wilk, Breush and Pagan and Durbin-Watson tests, respectively. The goodness of fit of models was verified according to the corrected Akaike information criterion (AICc), residual standard deviation (RSD), asymptote adjustment index (AI) and nonlinearity measures. All models adjusted for both fruit height and diameter variables met the assumptions of normality, independence and homoscedasticity of errors. In addition, all of them present good quality of fit to fruit height and diameter data, since they presented AI values close to one and low RSD values and non-linearity measures. However, the double Gompertz (GG) and the Logistic + Gompertz (LG) models presented, respectively, the best quality of fit to fruit height and diameter data in relation to the other models. It could be concluded that all diphasic sigmoidal models evaluated showed good fit to height and diameter data and can be used to describe the growth curve of “Aurora-1” peaches, according to goodness of fit criteria. However, it is important to highlight that GG and LG models presented the best quality of fit and can be selected to describe the height and diameter growth of “Aurora 1” peach fruits, respectively, with maximum expected growth close to 63 mm in height and 48 mm in diameter.","PeriodicalId":21334,"journal":{"name":"Revista Brasileira De Fruticultura","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67380976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this scenario, proline association with algal extracts has a potential stress-mitigating effect. However, even though this practice has been reported separately for some crops, its effects on mango are still unknown. From this perspective, this study investigated the role of proline and algal extract in mitigation of water deficit effects during shoot maturation of the mango variety ‘Tommy Atkins’ grown in the tropical semi-arid region. The study consisted of five consecutive individual experiments (five foliar application treatments) in a randomized block design and a 4 x 2 factorial corresponding to i) four proline concentrations (Pro): 0.0% (without proline), 0.287, 0.575, and 1.150%, and ii) the presence of algal extract (AE) (presence and absence). The following parameters were evaluated: photosynthetic pigments, soluble carbohydrates, photochemical and non-photochemical efficiency, and flowering and production uniformity. Carotenoids were interactively affected by the factors evaluated. On the other hand, as additive effects, proline provided the highest values of gas exchange and total soluble carbohydrates, with a higher internal CO2 concentration and greater flowering uniformity. The application of proline and the algal extract of A. nodosum promoted different responses in mango physiology and can be used during shoot maturation.","PeriodicalId":21334,"journal":{"name":"Revista Brasileira De Fruticultura","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67381136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Scab, a fungal disease that attacks the aerial part of plants, especially the younger leaves, impairs development and reduces plant productivity. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of treatment with a fungal cell wall glycoprotein, named pGM from peptidogalactomanann, in the control scab caused by Cladosporium hebarum infection. Under greenhouse conditions, morphological parameters or plant development were evaluated in two passion fruit genotypes, ‘H09-110/111’ and ‘FB300’. pGM treatment was able to mitigate the damage caused to plant development in parameters such as height, the number of leaves, stem diameter, leaf area and biomass in the ‘H09-110/111’ genotype compared to the control. However, in the genotype ‘FB300’, no significant differences were observed concerning the control. Passion fruit scab disease incidence and severity were also reduced by pGM treatment. Therefore, this study suggests that the use of pGM can lead to control and attenuation of the damage caused by this fungus in the early stages of passion fruit plants ‘H09-110/111’ when the plants are more susceptible to biotic stresses.","PeriodicalId":21334,"journal":{"name":"Revista Brasileira De Fruticultura","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67377822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Spectral images from the Sentinel-2 orbital platform acquired in August 2018 and an enhanced digital elevation model from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) were used. In a GIS application configured with the SIRGAS 2000,4 reference system and UTM cartographic projection, Sentinel-2 constellation images and digital elevation models from the SRTM mission and more recently refined with sensor data Phased Array type L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (PALSAR) were added. All images were resampled to a spatial resolution of 10m. The results were validated based on high spatial resolution images available from Google Earth. The results show that São Joaquim has a planted area of 7,974.80 ha, and only 12% use an anti-hail coverage system. The majority of the orchards range from one to five ha and belong to small producers. More than 50% of the orchards are between 1,200 and 1,400 m in altitude, with 45% of orchards located in areas with slopes between 8 to 20%. Interestingly, most of the orchards are concentrated in a radius of up to 20km from the urban center of São Joaquim, where industries and cooperatives are located for packaging, processing, and logistics. This study demonstrated that orbital data from Sentinel-2 can effectively quantify the distribution of apple orchards, being a viable and effective alternative for collecting information for agricultural monitoring. In this way, it enables efficient planning of apple production, such as technical assistance, marketing with producers, and production flow.","PeriodicalId":21334,"journal":{"name":"Revista Brasileira De Fruticultura","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67380254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
