Retardadores de crescimento e características nutricionais das cultivares de videira Thompson seedless e Italia

Com o objetivo de avaliar a variacao no teor de macronutrientes como resposta ao uso de reguladores de crescimento em videiras ‘Thompson Seedless’ e ‘Italia’, realizaram-se dois experimentos em casa-de-vegetacao testando quatro (04) retardadores: chlormequat - 1.500mg L-1; daminozide - 3.000mg L-1; uniconazole - 30mg L-1; cloreto de mepiquat - 300mg L-1. As mudas das cultivares produtoras enxertadas sobre ‘Tropical’ foram transplantadas para vasos com 35L de uma mistura 1:1:1 em volume de areia, solo e composto orgânico. Apos a poda, realizada a cada 150 dias, as videiras receberam 1L de solucao com micronutrientes e 1L de composto orgânico. No correr de cada ciclo, adubou-se dez vezes as plantas com: 1,45g de MAP; 3,42g de nitrato de calcio; 1,61g de ureia; 3,53g de cloreto de potassio e 1,94g de sulfato de magnesio. No fim de cada ciclo, podou-se o sistema aereo, coletando-se os peciolos das folhas e os ramos, que foram secos e pesados para determinacao da massa de materia seca. Apos moagem, as amostras foram analisadas quanto ao teor de macronutrientes. As experiencias realizadas com retardadores de crescimento, permitem concluir que nao so e possivel reduzir o ritmo de crescimento dos ramos nas plantas de videira das cultivares Thompson Seedless e Italia, bem como favorecer a alteracao nos teores de nutrientes de modo a induzir a formacao de gemas ferteis, prerrogativas exploradas no presente trabalho.
