The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of water stress in spectral and ecophysiological responses of coffee trees intercropped with woody species under water deficit. The “Catuaí Vermelho 99” was planted in monoculture and associated with the tree mahogany, teak and acrocarpo distributed in two spacings (9 x 13.6 and 18 x 13.6 m) line of coffee. Evaluations of growth of tree and coffee were performed ...
The objective of this work was to evaluate coffee plant stem carbohydrate contents in function of the cultivation spacing and at two pruning times. The experiment was conducted on a crop in the Fazenda Experimental da Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária de Minas Gerais (EPAMIG), in Machado, MG, implanted in January of 1992. The experimental design was in random blocks in a 4 x 3 x 2 factorial outline, being four s...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the activity of the enzymes involved in the sucrose metabolism and the carbohydrate levels on the endosperm of the coffee fruit under different shade levels. Four replicater were used, totaling 20 plots, which consisted of eight useful plants. Treatments were arranged in a randomized block design in a 5 x 3 factorial outline, being five shade levels (full sun, 35, 50,...
