Efeitos de diferentes níveis de salinidade de água e de lâminas de irrigação na bananeira nanica. II. Crescimento da planta filho.

Abstract

The effects of irrigation waters of different salinities (0.5 to 2.5 dS/m) and water depths (varying between 100 to 120% of water requirement) in growth of Nanica banana (1st sucker) were studied. Results showed that salinity levels aswellas water depths affected height of plants, diameter of pseudostem and leaf area along the growing period. Estatistical analises of these variables at the flowering time (326 days after establishment of suckers revealed significant effects of water salinities and depths of irrigation on plant height and pseudostem diameter.
