Cost Reduction in the Production of Green Dwarf Coconut Palm Seedlings Biostimulated with .

Unlabelled: The production of coconut tree seedlings is an important step in the production process, as it substantially affects the productive performance of the adult plant, and the way of obtaining seedlings directly reflects the added costs. To minimize costs, the introduction of biostimulants can be considered a viable and sustainable technology. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of applying in promoting growth and reducing the costs of producing Brazilgreen dwarf coconut seedlings.

First Report of Dickeya dadantii Causing Soft Rot in Cariru in Brazil.

Cariru (Talinum fruticosum) is a non-conventional food plant and a source of vitamins A, B2, B5, and C, calcium, phosphorus, and iron. It is an important crop for producers of the Amazon region and it is used as a leafy green vegetable, similar to spinach, as well as for medicinal purposes. It is cultivated by producers in the states of Pará and Amazonas (Amorim et al.

Physiological performance and chemical compositions of the L. (Apiaceae) essential oil cultivated with different fertilizer sources.

The present work proposed an evaluation of the physiological performance, yield and chemical profile of the essential oil obtained from leaves and roots of L. (Apiaceae) cultivated using different fertilizer sources. The other gas exchange and chlorophyll a fluorescence parameter was not different, suggested that the photosystem II was not affected by the different fertilizer sources.

Açaí palm seedling growth promotion by rhizobacteria inoculation.

Lower growth rate of the açaí palm seedlings limits the crops' commercial expansion. The goal was evaluating the biometry, biomass accumulation, nutrient contents, chlorophyll-a fluorescence, and gas exchange in açaí seedlings inoculated with rhizobacteria. The treatments were individual inoculations of the seven rhizobacteria isolates and one control (without inoculation) on the roots.

Coupling physiological analysis with proteomic profile to understand the photosynthetic responses of young Euterpe oleracea palms to drought.

This study examined whether drought sensitivity in açaí (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) is associated with reductions in photosynthesis and increasing oxidative stress in response to down-regulation of proteins related to photosynthetic reactions, photorespiration, and antioxidant system. Well-watered (Control) and drought-stressed plants were compared when leaf water potential in stressed plants reached around - 1.
