<p>ABSTRACT<br />Pummelo productivity is still low, therefore efforts should be made to increase its flowering and production. The objective of study was to determine the effectiveness of strangulation combined with the application of breaking dormancy substances to improve flowering of pummelo. The experiment was conducted in January to November 2015, at the Cikabayan Experimental Research Station, IPB. The carbohydrate and nitrogen analysis was done in laboratory of Postharvest Agriculture Research Institute, Bogor. Three-year-old pummelo grown in field was subjected for this research. Experiment used a completely randomized design (CRD) with two factors. The first factor was treatment to stimulate flowering, consisted of 3 levels i.e. single strangulation, double strangulation and control, and the second factor was the use of dormancy breaking substances, consisted of 3 types i.e. KNO3, Ethepon and BAP. Strangulation was performed by pressing the wire with a diameter of 2.0 mm into stem as deep as the diameter of the wire. Strangulation was done simultaneously and then released after 3 months. Dormancy breaking substance was applied immediately after releasing the wire for strangulation with the concentration of 200 ppm KNO3, 100 ppm Ethepon or 100 ppm BA. Treatments were replicated 4 times. The results showed that single and double strangulation treatments for 3 months were an effective way to induce flowering of young pummelo trees. Double strangulation produced more flowers as compared to single strangulation.<br />Increased carbohydrate content and C/N ratio in leaves were observed on flower induced trees. Strangulation treatment for 3 months can increase flowering of young pummelo trees. Application of dormancy breaking substances did not have any effect on flowering induction in pummelo.</p><p>Keywords: carbohydrate content, dormancy breaking substance, flower induction, pummelo, strangulation</p><p>ABSTRAK<br />Produktivitas pamelo masih rendah sehingga perlu upaya peningkatan pembungaan dan produksinya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektivitas strangulasi yang dikombinasikan dengan aplikasi zat pemecah dormansi dalam meningkatkan pembungaan jeruk pamelo. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Januari sampai Nopember 2015, bertempat di Kebun Percobaan IPB Cikabayan. Analisis karbohidrat dan nitrogen dilakukan di laboratorium BB Pasca Panen, Bogor. Percobaan menggunakan tanaman jeruk pamelo “Nambangan’ berumur 3 tahun dengan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dua faktor. Sebagai faktor pertama yaitu perlakuan untuk menstimulasi pembungaan, terdiri atas 3 taraf perlakuan yaitu perlakuan strangulasi tunggal, strangulasi ganda dan kontrol, dan sebagai faktor kedua adalah penggunaan zat pemecah dormansi terdiri atas 3 jenis yaitu KNO3, Ethepon dan BAP. Masing-masing perlakuan diulang 4 kali sehingga terdapat 36 unit percobaan. Strangulasi dilaksanakan dengan melilitkan kawat dengan diameter 2.0 mm pada batang dengan menekan kawat ke batang sedalam diameter kawat tersebut. Strangulasi dilakukan serentak pada batang, strangulasi dilepas setelah 3 bulan kemudian. Zat pemecah dormansi diaplikasikan segera setelah pelepasan kawat strangulasi dengan konsentrasi masing-masing 200 ppm untuk KNO3, 100 ppm untuk Ethepon atau 100 ppm untuk BAP. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan perlakuan strangulasi selama 3 bulan merupakan cara efektif menginduksi pembungaan tanaman jeruk pamelo. Perlakuan strangulasi ganda menghasilkan bunga lebih banyak dibandingkan dengan strangulasi tunggal. Tanaman yang telah terinduksi menunjukkan tingginya kandungan karbohidrat pada tajuk tanaman sehingga meningkatkan rasio C/N. Perlakuan zat pemecah dormansi tidak memberikan pengaruh yang nyata terhadap pembungaan jeruk pamelo.<br />Kata kunci: kandungan karbohidrat, pamelo, pembungaan, strangulasi, zat pemecah dormansi</p>

Passion fruit is a high value export oriented crop, which is gaining popularity among farmers. One of the constraints in expansion of this crop is availability of quality planting material. Passion fruit is propagated through seed, cutting and grafting. Among these methods, cuttings encourage the production and multiplication of true to type planting material. Therefore, a study was conducted at the Fruits Crops Research Station, Kerala Agricultural University, Vellanikkara, Thrissur, during August 2019 - November 2019 to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of NAA and number of nodes on the rooting of cuttings and survival percentage. The experiment was laid out in completely randomized design with twenty treatments and two replications. Experiment consisted of two factors, viz. NAA concentration (200 ppm, 400 ppm, 600 ppm, 800 ppm and control) and number of nodes (one node, two node, three node and four node), following quick dip method. The study revealed that there was significant variation among the treatments. When the effect of number of nodes alone was considered, four noded cutting had the maximum survival percentage, and higher root and shoot parameters. Improved survival percentage, and enhanced root and shoot characteristics were noticed with the increasing NAA concentration. From the present study, it was concluded that combined effect of more number of nodes and higher NAA concentration had profound effect on survival percentage, shoot length, root length, number of leaves and leaf area and four noded cuttings dipped in 800 ppm NAA, for 3-5 seconds was found to be the best successful propagule for passion fruit.

High quantities of mineral fertilizers (MF) are required for good coconut seedling production, whose up dated recommendation is 232 grams per seedling. The objective of this work was to assess the substitution of the MF by organic fertilizer as sugar-cane filter cake (SCFC) on coconut seedlings in polybag. The SCFC is an organic residue from sugar-cane manufacturing composed of various chemical elements, as for instance: nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and magnesium. The experiment was carried out at the Itapirema Research Station, Goiana, Pernambuco State, Brazil, in a randomized complete block design, with factorial disposition 52, replicated three times, with six tall coconut seedlings per plot. The treatments were the combinations of five doses of MF (in g seedling-1): 46.25; 92.50; 138.75; 185.00 and control, using urea, simple superphosphate and potassium chloride at the proportion of 1:2:3, respectively, and five doses of SCFC (in kg polybag-1): 0.5; 1.0; 1.5; 2.0 and control. Eight months after young coconut seedlings replacement to the polybags the following parameters were measured: collar girth (CG), leaf area (LA), number of live leaves (NL) and plant height (PH). For leaf nutritional diagnosis and growing media chemical and physical analyses, samples were collected. There was significance for the two factors, individually, to all parameters. The trend analysis revealed linear, quadratic and cubic responses, according to the studied character. The mixture of 0.5 kg of SCFC polybag-1 plus 46.25 g of the MF was sufficient for obtaining seedlings of excellent quality and promoting a fertilizers economy around 80%. According to other results from this research, the number of seedlings per plot and the critical level of nutrients in the leaf of coconut seedlings should be reviewed.

An experiment was done to assess the effect of various post -harvest treatments of ethrel on ripening behaviour and post -harvest quality of mango cv. Amrapali (Mangiferaindica L.) during storage at Punjab Agricultural University, Regional Research Station, Gurdaspur during the years 2013-14 and 2014-15. The experiment was planned under completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications. The treatment units was six fruits per replication. Total five treatments and control were applied. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of various concentrations of ethrel (500 ppm, 750 ppm, 1000 ppm,1250 ppm, 1500 ppm and control ) on shelf life of mango fruits when stored under ambient conditions. The treated fruits were assessed for physiological changes fruit colour, flavour/aroma, organoleptic taste, marketability, ripening, specific gravity, moisture loss, decay, physiological loss in weight (PLW), total soluble solids (TSS), acidity and sugars. The observations were recorded at 5, 8 and 11 days after storage. At 11th day of storage these mangoes exhibited deep yellow fruit colour with excellent flavour, organoleptic taste and highly acceptable marketability at 1000 ppm ethrel treatment as compared to other ethrel doses. Fruit ripening (100%), specific gravity (0.84), TSS(23°Brix) and sugars(20.65%) were highest in the fruits treated with 1000ppm ethrel as compared to rest of treatments at 11th day of storage. Lowest moisture loss (8.5%), decay (1%), PLW(12.50%) and acidity(0.12%) were observed in the fruits treated with 1000ppm of ethrel as compared to rest of treatments at 11th day of storage. The beneficial effect of the present study is to overcome the problem of uneven and late ripening of Amrapali mango by postharvest treatment of ethrel at 1000 ppm at their mature green stage to develop typical fruit flavour with excellent fruit quality.

Light, temperature and dormancy are factors that influence the germination of seeds and are strictly linked to the emergence of weeds. The objective of this work was to assess the germination of Sorghum arundinaceum and Sorghum halepense subjected to different conditions of temperature and luminosity, as well as assessing seed dormancy breaking mechanisms. For this, two experiments were conducted, both arranged in a completely randomized design. Experiment 1 was installed in a 2 x 5 double factorial design. The first factor was the absence or presence of light for 12 hours, and the other was composed of five constant temperatures: 15, 20, 30, 40 and 45 oC. In experiment 2, the efficiency of nine treatments used for breaking dormancy of seeds was assessed. The variables analyzed for both experiments were germination percentage and germination speed index (GSI). For the statistical analysis were performed an analysis of variance (ANOVA) and all the necessary consequences, as well as regression, when relevant. In experiment 1 for both species greater germination occurred in the presence of light. For S. arundinaceum the temperatures at which there was the highest percentage of germination were 33.13 and 31.24 oC for presence and absence of light respectively. As for S. halepense these temperatures were 31.98 and 29.75 oC for presence and absence of light respectively. As for the treatments for breaking dormancy, the mechanical scarification of seeds with sandpaper presented the highest germination and GSI. It is concluded that the Sorghum species studied are neutral photoblastic seeds and present mechanical type dormancy.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to evaluate the insecticidal activity of eight botanical species in the behavior and biological development of Zabrotes subfasciatus (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Bruchinae) under laboratory conditions. The botanical species were applied on bean grains (Phaseolus vulgaris Linnaeus) directly as powder or indirectly within TNT bags. Three laboratory assays were performed. First, a repellent activity test was performed by exposing twenty couples of Z. subfasciatus adults in a choice-test arena. Second, a mortality test was performed for seven days after infestation. Finally, the oviposition and emergency rates of adults (%) and the development from egg to adult (in days) were evaluated in seven couples (males and females) for seven days inside of a vial containing 0.3g of the powder from each botanical species and 10 g of bean grains (3% w.w-1). The study was conducted in a completely randomized design, and the treatments were arranged as a factorial design (2 x 9) with two factors (factor 1= powder and TNT bag application forms and factor 2= eight botanical species and control) with eight replications. The powder application form was more efficient in controlling Z. subfasciatus. Azadirachta indica (powder application), Ruta graveolens (powder application), and Piper aduncum (TNT bag) reduced the infestation of adults. The species A. inidica, Piper tuberculatum, Trichilia catigua, Pfaffia glomerata, R. graveolens, and Mentha pulegium inhibited the oviposition of the insects regardless of the formulation applied. R. graveolens (powder application) caused 100% of mortality. The powder application of R. graveolens and M. pulegium reduced egg viability and insect emergence; therefore, they are very promising alternatives to control Z. subfasciatus in stored grains.
