Expressão do sexo, crescimento e produção de pepino (Cucumis sativus L.) com emprego de substâncias reguladoras de crescimento
Palabras clave:
reguladores de crescimento, flores masculinas e femininas, expressão sexual pepino, controle de crescimento, produtividade de pepinoResumen
Sex expression, growth and yield, as affected by growth regulators, were studied in three cultivars (Verde Pequeno de Paris, Boston Pickling and Wisconsin SMR-18) of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.). Gibberellic acid (GAg) (0, 100 and 200 ppm), naphathalenoacetic acid (NAA) (0,100 and 200 ppm), (2 — chloroethyl)-trimethylammonium chloride (CCC) (0, 250 and 500 ppm) and 2,3, 5-trilodobenzoic acid (TIBA) (0, 25 and 50 ppm) were used as water sprays on the young plants in the 3-4 true leaf stage. The experiment was carried out in the field, using a splitsplit plot randomized block design with three replications.
