Avaliação fenológica de duas variedades de laranjeiras - Natal e Valência enxertadas sobre três variedades de limoeiros Rugoso, Cravo e Volkameriano

Abstract

The selection of rootstocks that induce favorable changes to the orange growth, production and fruit quality, and that can consequently generate higher yields, has been consequently generate higher yields, has been the object of study of several research centers. Considering the need to obtain new rootstocks, the the present study aimed to evaluate the growth of two varieties of orange trees (Valencia and Natal) (Valencia and Natal) grafted on three varieties of lemon trees (Rough, Rangpur and Volkameriano), evaluating the height, diameter and volume of the grafts in the first three months after grafting. The experiments were conducted in sandy soil in the BIMBI complex located in the Central neighborhood of Vilankulo village. The experiment was Completely Randomized Design consisting of 6 treatments and 12 replicates. repetitions. The repetitions were samples of 12 individual plants within rectangles with the following treatments (rootstock-scion combinations): Natal orange over Rugoso, Cravo Rough, Rangpur and Volkamerian, and Valencia orange on Rangpur, Rangpur and Volkameriano lime trees. As for the evaluated parameters, the grafts combined with the were highly significant or had accelerated development compared to the other rootstocks. in relation to the other rootstocks.
