Abstract
The Cerrado has fruit species of great potential of use in commercial systems of agricultural production. They are obliged to carry out studies on the production of seedlings, contributing to a perpetuation of these species. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different substrates and different doses of Basacote® on the emergence and early development of B. gaudichaudii plants. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse in the experimental area of the Goiano Federal Institute-Campus Ceres. Experiment 1 was composed of six treatments (six compositions) and experiment 2 consisted of 5 treatments (five doses of Basacote®). The experimental design was a randomized complete block with four replicates and 12 plants per experimental plot. The variables analyzed were emergence, height, lap diameter, number of leaves, root system length, survival rate and fresh and dry matter of the aerial part and root system. The substrate composed of bovine manure + Plantmax® + soil provides better conditions for growth and development of mamacadella plants. The mamacadela seedlings do not tolerate high levels of organic matter in the substrate. For the production of Brosimum gaudichaudii seedlings the use of the 6.48 g dose of Basacote® plant-1 is indicated.
Highlights
Cerrado presents a vast flora, an unequaled medicinal potential and fruits with high nutritional value
Considering the above, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of different substrates and different doses of Basacote® on the emergence and initial development of Brosimum gaudichaudii plants
The seeds were collected from fruits of mamacadela in plants located in an area of natural occurrence, in the cities of Faina and Itapuranga, during the maturation period of the fruits (September/October), when the spontaneous fall began
Summary
Cerrado presents a vast flora, an unequaled medicinal potential and fruits with high nutritional value This biome has fruit species of great potential for economic, industrial and environmental purposes, yet to be explored, enabling income generation, guaranteeing economic progress and sustainability (Pereira & Pasqualeto, 2011). It contains in its roots large amounts of psoralen, another furanocoumarin used to treat skin diseases (Morais et al, 2018). For this reason the plant is extracted indiscriminately from its natural habitat
