Carpellody is a phenomenon that affects hermaphrodite flowers of papaya, and consists in the transformation of the stamens into additional carpels, resulting in ovary malformation that consequently affects fruit shape and diminishes its market value. The objective of this study was to quantify the incidence of flower carpellody in papaya, and the effect of temperature on this phenomenon. An experiment was carried out between October of 2006 and January of 2007 at ”Los Diamantes” Agricultural Experiment Station, located in the province of Limón. Four breeding lines and four experimental hybrids were arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications. The analyzed variables were the carpel number for ovaries of hermaphrodite flowers and the daily temperature during a 60-day period prior to floral anthesis of each evaluated flower. The carpel number of lines and hybrids differed significantly each week (p≤0,03). Line and hybrid averages also differed significantly during the twelve-week period (p<0,0001). The cross between a strong carpellodic line and a stable or a weak female-sterile line resulted in a hybrid that exhibited carpellody, which suggests that carpellody is dominant. The correlation between carpel number and temperature suggests that the amplitude of temperature fluctuations during the day was a determinant factor in the induction of carpellody.

Abstract Sweet potatoes were planted on 22 Jun at the Eastern Shore Agricultural Experiment Station, Painter, VA. Each plot consisted of 3 rows 20 ft. long with 3 ft. spacing between rows. Plots were separated by an untreated guard row and replicated 6 times in a randomized, complete block design. Mocap treatments were applied and incorporated on 10 Jun to avoid phytotoxicity. Lorsban and Temik were applied and incorporated immediately prior to planting. Mocap and Lorsban were broadcast using a 6 flat fan nozzle boom backpack sprayer delivering 20 gal water/acre. Temik was applied in a 12 inch band using a hand-held shaker. Sevin foliar sprays were started on 14 Jul, after the first clickbeetles (wireworm adults) were caught in the black light trap at Painter. Clickbeetle light trap catches were used as a basis for determining dates for the Sevin threshold sprays. The Sevin schedule sprays were applied weekly from 14 Jul through 30 Aug. The Sevin threshold sprays were applied on 14 and 27 Jul, and 9 and 30 Aug. Foliar sprays were applied in 40 gal water/acre using the same sprayer described above. On 18 Oct, the center row of each plot was harvested and 25 market-sized roots were randomly selected to determine insect damage. Damage from wireworms, southern corn rootworms (Diabrotica) and Systena flea beetles is very similar and thus recorded and analyzed as a complex (WDS damage).

Amaranthus dubius is a common weed in sweetpotato production throughout the Caribbean Basin. A field study was conducted in the Agricultural Experiment Station at Juana Diaz, P.R., during 1998 to determine the effect of A. dubius interference in sweetpotato production under tropical conditions. Interference was evaluated by using a randomized complete-block design with four replications. Plots were four 6.1-m rows divided into two sections for yield and growth determinations. Intraspecific and interspecific interference was measured for both species. A. dubius was grown at 15 and 30 plants per meter of row. Plant dry weight and leaf area were determined at 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 weeks after planting (WAP). Sweetpotato yield was determined at 29 WAP. A. dubius growing alone reached a maximum leaf area index (LAI) of 8.5 at 12 WAP. Sweetpotato, however, did not attain maximum LAI. When grown with A. dubius, sweetpotato biomass was reduced at 15 WAP. This reduction was 62% and 66% for 15 and 30 A. dubius plants per meter of row, respectively. Sweetpotato yield in weed-free plots was equivalent to 9232 kg/ha. Yield reduction was 96% for 15 A. dubius per meter of row and 100% for 30 plants.

Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the growth and production of a garlic clone subjected to either infection or virus-free conditions, according to bulb and clove size classification. The experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design with four replicates. Treatments consisted of either virus-infected or virus-free cloves, obtained from bulbs of four size classes and from cloves with three sieve diameters. Vegetative characteristics and plant production were assessed. Plants infected by viral complexes showed a reduction in emergence (8.4%), plant height (9.8%), and production of marketable bulbs (39.4%), as well as a lower average mass of bulbs and cloves. The virus-free clone produced more bulbs in classes 5 (42-47 mm), 6 (47-56 mm), and 7 (> 56 mm), besides having a lower influence on marketable quality standards as a function of garlic seed size variation. In the infected clone, bulbs from sieve 6 and cloves from sieve 1 (15×25 mm) produced bulbs with the highest market value. Virus-free garlic seed, with bulbs and cloves of medium and large size, produce bulbs of the highest market value, whereas, for the infected garlic, this is possible only with the larger garlic size.

This study aimed to characterize morphological variation among fifteensuperior robusta coffee clones in Lampung Province. The fifteen clones consisted of four clones released by the Indonesian Coffee andCocoa Research Institute (ICCRI), i.e. ‘BP 409’,‘BP936’, ‘BP939’, ‘SA 237’, together with eleven superior coffee clones selected byfarmers from Tanggamus District (‘Tugino’, ‘Wanto’, ‘Biyadi’, ‘Komari’, ‘Wardi’, ‘Wariso’) and from West Lampung District (‘TuguKuning’, ‘Tugu Hijau', ‘Tugu Biru', ‘Tugu Sari', ‘Lengkong'). Fifteen qualitative and seven quantitative morphological characters wereevaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replicates for each clone,each replication consisted of two plants. Fromeach plant, four samples were taken from four sides of the plant (north, south, west, and east). It was found that while somemorphological characters exhibited negligible variation among clones, there were significant differences between clones for othercharacters. The characters that did not differ significantly between clones were: shapes of leaf base and leaf tip; petiole color; leafvenation pattern; fruit disk shape; ripe-fruit color; and stipule shape. The characters that varied between clones were shape of leaf lamina(elliptical vs. lanceolate); fruit shape (round vs. oval); and shape of leaf margins. Morphological variation was also observed in somequantitative characters: canopy diameter; tree height; stem diameter; leaf length; leaf width; petiole length; stipule length; and number ofprimary branches.

Abstract. Sayekti TWDA, Syukur M, Hidayat SH, Maharijaya A. 2021. Diversity and genetic parameter of chili pepper (Capsicum annuum) based on yield component in three locations. Biodiversitas 22: 823-829. With the increase in the use of chili, it is necessary to develop these commodities through plant breeding activities. Phenotypes are not only determined by genetics, but also by environmental factors and the GxE interactions, so all the factors need to be considered. The aims of this study were to evaluate the variability of ten elite breeding lines and three commercial varieties of chili pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) across three different environments. This experiment was conducted in three environments namely Bogor, Kolaka, and Palembang, from January until July 2019. Thirteen genotypes consisting of ten elite lines and three commercial chili pepper were used. This experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications for each environment. To determine the effect of environment, Combined Analysis of Variance was carried out for all environments using PBSTAT-GE. The environment used in this experiment was lowland that varies between each other. The genotype with the fastest harvesting age relative in three environments was F7-145293-19-8-3-113-1. The highest number of fruits per plant was observed in genotype F9-160291-9-4-3-2-1-1-1 with 261 fruits per plant. The highest yield was observed in genotype F7-145174-9-7-1-5-3. From the clustering analysis, this population was grouped into five clusters. The heritability values for the 12 observed traits ranged between 22.68-69.97%, classified into high and moderate criteria.

Fig is a perennial fruit tree with high economic importance among horticultural crops in some countries. The fruit has a good market value, both at national and international level. The objective of this work was to evaluate the potential of vegetative propagation of fig cvs. ‘Sawari’ and ‘Tarnab Inzar’ through stem cuttings with different lengths, aiming to improve the production of nursery plants. The experiment was carried out from January to April 2017 and it was laid out in randomized complete block design with different sizes of cuttings (10, 15 and 20 cm) examined for two cultivars ‘Sawari’ and ‘Tarnab Inzar’, with three replications keeping 20 cuttings per treatment. The variables studied were number of leaves, number of roots, root length, shoot length, sprouting percentage and survival percentage. Cuttings size of fig cultivars had a significant temporal variation in the percentage of successful rooting and survival of cuttings. Based on data regarding number of leaves, number of roots, root length, sprouting percentage, it was concluded that 20 cm long cuttings collected for both cultivars are the best option for commercial production of fig nursery plants.
