INITIAL DEVELOPMENT OF GABIROBA (Campomanesia adamantium) ACCORDING TO FERTILIZATION WITH NITROGEN AND PHOSPHORUS
2021
Campomanesia adamantium (Cambess.) Berg O. is a native of Savanna, popularly known as gabiroba, guavira, or gabiroba-do-campo, and has many uses, with its fruit being consumed fresh or processed. This study aimed to evaluate different doses of phosphorus and nitrogen in the initial development of gabiroba ( Campomanesia adamantium ) cultivated in pots. Five doses of phosphorus (0, 100, 200, 300, and 400 kg ha - 1 of P 2 O 5 ) and three doses of nitrogen (0, 100, and 200 kg ha - 1 of N) were tested. The experimental design used was completely randomized in a 5x3 factorial scheme with six replications. The evaluations were carried out 120 days after plant emergence, and the variables analyzed were stem diameter, plant height, and number of leaves. Data were subjected to analysis of variance and F-test. The means were compared by the Tukey test at p <0.05. Regression analyzes were adjusted for phosphorus doses. The gabiroba responds significantly to the addition of phosphorus, with the dose of 400 kg ha -1 of P 2 O 5 providing the highest height and the dose of 300 kg ha -1 of P 2 O 5 providing the greatest stem diameter and the number of leaves. Up to 120 days old, gabiroba seedlings do not respond significantly to nitrogen fertilization.
