An experiment was carried out to study the effect of grafting dates on the success and growth of kumquat sapling during 2017-18 at Banepa, Kavre to standardize suitable grafting time. The experiment was conducted in a single factor completely randomized design with five treatments and three replications. The treatments consisted of five grafting dates which viz., 25th November, 10th December, 25th December, 10th January and 25th January. Scion collected from the mother plant of kumquat was grafted onto two years old trifoliate orange rootstock by side veneer method at 15 days intervals under screen house. The data were recorded at every 30 days interval and found a significant effect of grafting dates on most of the economically important parameters such as graft success percent, the mortality of sprouted grafts, sapling height, number of leaves per sapling and leaf area. The result revealed that 100% graft success was observed on the grafts prepared in January. The highest mortality (13.68±0.58%) was reported on 25th November grafted sapling. The sapling height (39.68±3.68 cm), number of leaves per sapling (23.12±3.43) and leaf area (16.34±1.05 cm2) were found superior for 10th January grafted sapling while the number of primary and secondary branches per sapling were found non-significant for all grafting dates. Therefore, the study revealed that 10th January was the most suitable time for grafting of kumquat under Kavre, Nepal conditions.

O meloeiro tem grande importância econômica para o Nordeste brasileiro. Entretanto, em seu cultivo utiliza-se insumos que podem prejudicar o ambiente; como, os fertilizantes nitrogenados. Objetivou-se avaliar a emissão de N2O em cultivo de meloeiro amarelo ‘Goldex’. O experimento foi instalado em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com cinco repetições. Os tratamentos foram: 0 (controle), 1,0; 1,5 e 2 vezes a quantidade de nitrogênio recomendada para cada estádio. Foi analisado o fluxo de N2O, área foliar, número de folhas, massa seca da parte aérea, massa seca dos frutos, massa seca da parte radicular, nitrogênio total do solo, das plantas e N (NH4+ e NO3-) do solo. O fluxo de N2O teve comportamento temporal irregular durante a fase de plântulas e crescente na floração. Os tratamentos afetaram significativamente a área foliar, número de folhas, massa seca da parte aérea, massa seca da parte radicular, nitrogênio da parte aérea e parte radicular das plantas e do solo. A aplicação de nitrogênio, em dosagens superiores à recomendada, não aumentou a produção do meloeiro. E o cálculo do fator de emissão mostrou que a emissão do N2O não atingiu valores prejudiciais ao ambiente.Palavras-chave: fator de emissão, efeito estufa e nitrogênio. NITROUS OXIDE EMISSION ASSOCIATED WITH UREA USE THE YELLOW MELON CROP ABSTRACT: The melon has great economic importance for the Brazilian Northeast. However, in its cultivation uses inputs that can harm the environment; Such as nitrogen fertilizers. The objective of this study was to evaluate the emission of N2O in yellow 'Goldex' cultivar. The experiment was installed in a completely randomized design with five replications. The treatments were: 0 (control), 1.0; 1.5 and 2 times the amount of nitrogen recommended for each stage. N2O flux, leaf area, leaf number, shoot dry mass, fruit dry mass, dry mass of the root portion, total soil nitrogen, of the plants and N (NH4 + and NO3 -) of the soil were analyzed. The flow of N2O had irregular temporal behavior during the seedling phase and increased in flowering. The treatments affected significantly the leaf area, number of leaves, dry mass of the aerial part, dry mass of the root part, nitrogen of the aerial part and root part of the plants and the soil.

The Heliconias have a great potential as a cut flower and for this reason an adequate management of the crop is important. The objective of this research was the application of soil amendments (Biol and superabsorbent polymers - SAP) and the analysis on their effect in the growth of Heliconia psittacorum cv. Tropica. An experiment was established using a completely randomized design with four treatments and five repetitions: SAP (1 g plant-1), biol (20 mL plant-1) + SAP (1 g plant-1), biol (20 mL plant-1) and one control (without application). A 20 cm rhizome was planted per pot and were evaluated the height of the plant, the number of leaves, the leaf area and the number of shoots were measured. The analysis of variance did not show statistical differences (p ≤ 0.05) between treatments for the variables of the height of the plant, the leaf area and the number of shoots, but statistical differences were found for the variable number of leaves (p ≤ 0.05), and the best treatments were Biol, SAP, and Biol + SAP. With the application of the biol and SAP amendments, it was not possible to increase the plant height, the leaf area and the number of Heliconia shoots. Regarding the application of SAP to the not found significant results in Heliconia, it is expected that treatments with SAP show a better effect in the dry season.

<p>The method of thyme stem cutting needs to be developed to produce better roots to support growth. The study aims to examine the response of thyme stem cuttings to various concentration of IBA and time soaking. The research was carried out on January – March 2020 in screen house PT. INDMIRA, Sleman, Yogyakarta and the Physiology and Plant Breeding Laboratory of the Faculty of Animal and Agricultural Science, Diponegoro University. The method used was a completely randomized design with a factorial 4×3 with 5 replications. The first factor was a various concentration of IBA: A0 (0 ppm), A1 (100 ppm), A2 (250 ppm), and A3 (500 ppm). The second factor was the time soaking: B1 (5 minutes), B2 (10 minutes), and B3 (15 minutes.) The results showed that IBA concentration has no significant effect for root dry weight, while the time soaking has significant effect for all parameters. Soaking thyme stem cuttings at an IBA 250 ppm for 10 minutes gave the best results on plant length, the number of leaves, root length, and root dry weight, but soaking in water (without IBA) for 5 minutes was able to give the best number of percentage of life cuttings (85%) so that giving IBA had no needed.</p>

Use of national strawberry seedlings, produced in a system without soil, is an alternative to reduce the dependence of producers on using imported seedlings. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of applying different concentrations of prohexadione calcium (ProCa) in the growth control of strawberry seedlings and the productive behavior after planting these seedlings. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse, with a 4 x 2 factorial scheme, four concentrations of prohexadione calcium (0, 150, 300 and 600 mg L-1) and two cultivars (Aromas and Camarosa). In the seedling phase, a completely randomized design was used, with 4 replications, with the experimental unit consisting of 12 seedlings. In the post-planting phase, a completely randomized design was used, with 5 replications and the experimental unit consisted of 4 plants. In the seedlings, the following were evaluated: number of leaves, crown diameter, petiole length, leaf area, chlorophyll content and dry matter of the aerial part. The parameters evaluated in the strawberry plants were: full bloom and fruiting, number of fruits per plant, average fruit weight, total fruit weight, length and diameter of fruit, dry weight of leaves and crowns. The application of 150, 300 and 600 mg L-1 of ProCa decreased the leaf area and petiole length for both cultivars, thus reduced the vegetative growth of the seedlings. On the other hand the chlorophyll a, b and total contents were increased in relation to the absence of ProCa for the two cultivars evaluated. The ProCa concentrations did not influence the number of fruits and the fruit mass per plant, and the results were related to the cultivar factor, where the cv Camarosa had the higher values.

Weeds compete with plants for water, light, nutrients and space. In sugarcane, planting pre-sprouted sugarcane seedlings (PSS) may mean a change in weed interference and management. The aim of this study was to generate information on the interference of Cyperus rotundus L. in PSS. Two experiments were carried out in a completely randomized design, one with cultivar RB985476, with seven densities of C. rotundus (0, 17, 35, 70, 140, 280 and 560 plants m-2), and the second with cultivar IACSP95-5000, with four densities of C. rotundus (0, 70, 140 and 280 plants m-2). For this weed, a 2x6 factorial design was used for the experiment with RB985476 and a 2x3 design was used for IACSP95-5000, the first factor being absence and presence of the crop, and the second factor the densities of the species. Biometric evaluations of height, diameter, number of tillers and leaves, leaf area and dry mass were carried out. The PSS had a reduction in height, number of leaves and leaf area in the main till at 60 d after planting (DAP) in RB985476. For the IACSP95-5000 cultivar, there was no reduction in the analyzed variables. The average dry mass per plant of C. rotundus decreased as the density of the species increased in the absence of PSS.
