Abstract

The objective of this work was to evaluate the production of yellow passion fruit seedlings in protected environments composed of different photoselective screens. The work was developed at the UEMG, unit Ituiutaba and started in May and was evaluated in June 2018. The treatments consist of different types of protected environment: T1-Open Sky; T2 - Black Screen (mesh for 30% shade); T3 - White Screen (mesh for 20% shade); T4 - Blue Screen (mesh for 20% shade) and T5 - Red Screen (mesh for 20% shade). The experimental design was a randomized complete block design with four replications, ten plants per experimental plot. The analysis of the germination content, chlorophyll a and b, number of leaves, leaf length, stem diameter, and shoot height were performed. No photoselective effects were observed for the germination rate, chlorophyll a and b, the number of leaves, shoot height, leaf length and stem diameter in the yellow passion fruit crop.
