Article Synopsis
- Salt stress negatively impacts plant growth, prompting researchers to explore Ca-complex sources as a way to mitigate these effects in sour passion fruit seedlings.
- The study involved a randomized block design with different cultivars, salinity levels, and Ca-complex sources to assess their impact on various physiological traits over 60 days.
- Results indicated that using Ca-complex sources, particularly those with amino acids, significantly improved water use efficiency and reduced cell membrane damage, suggesting their effectiveness in supporting plant health under moderate salinity stress.

Background: Dactylopius opuntiae (Cockerell) (carmine cochineal) is an insect pest highly noxious that has spread through cactus pear crops in the Brazilian semiarid region. Knowledge of diversity and genetic relationships of the cactus pear accessions is fundamental to create new varieties resistance to carmine cochineal. Therefore, this investigation was undertaken to assess the genetic diversity and genetic relationships that existed among cactus pear accessions of Nopalea sp.
