Morphoagronomic characterization of Lantana camara L. germplasm
Nascimento, Luís Fernando de Andrade; Blank, Arie Fitzgerald; Sá Filho, José Carlos Freitas de; Pereira, Katily Luize GarciaThe medicinal and aromatic species Lantana camara is a bush that receives a lot of interest regarding ornamental use. However, due to its condition of invasive plant in natural environments, it suffers constant eradication attempts, which causes genetic erosion of the species. To work around this problem, a sample of the genetic variability of L. camara was saved in the Active Germplasm Bank of medicinal and ar...
Cropping season affect the performance of basil cultivars and hybrids
Pinto, Jéssika Andreza Olveira; Blank, Arie Fitzgerald; Andrade, Thiago Matos; Sá Filho, José Carlos Freitas de; Nascimento, Luís Fernando de AndradeThe objective of this work was to evaluate the performance of basil cultivars and hybrids in two cropping seasons. The experiments were conducted in a randomized block design, with three replications. Twenty-four basil genotypes were tested (20 commercial cultivars and four hybrids), in the dry season (oct.-dec./2015) and in the rainy season (apr.-jun./2016). The evaluated variables were: plant height (cm plant...
Cobertura do solo e adubação orgânica na produção de alface
Farias, Diego Bispo dos Santos; Lucas, Ariovaldo Antonio Tadeu; Moreira, Maria Aparecida; Nascimento, Luís Fernando de AndradeEm Sergipe, a alface (Lactuca sativa L.) é uma das hortaliças mais produzidas em sistemas irrigados, portanto é importante estudar meios que propiciem o melhor rendimento para a cultura. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a influência de diferentes tipos de cobertura do solo e a necessidade de adubação orgânica (esterco bovino) na produção de alface – cultivar Babá de Verão. O estudo foi desenvolvido na Faze...
