Resumen:
Nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus L.), an unconventional food plant
(PANC), has high nutritional value and promotes the activity of microorganisms
rhizospheric. Organic fertilization intensifies this interaction, benefiting the
plant development and soil fertility. In this sense, the objective was to evaluate the
occurrence and density of rhizosphere microorganisms and growth of nasturtium
(Tropaeolum Majus L.) subjected to organic and mineral fertilization. The experiment was
conducted in a greenhouse belonging to the Science and Technology Center
Agrifood of the Federal University of Campina Grande, Pombal-PB. In which the
The experimental design used was randomized blocks, with seven
treatments and a nasturtium cultivar (Tropaeolum majus L.), with four
repetitions and two plants per plot, totaling 56 experimental units. You
treatments were: T1 = No fertilization (control); T2 = Nitrogen fertilization
(AN); T3 = Fertilization with manure in a proportion of 50%, T4 = Fertilization with manure
in the proportion of 75%, T5 = Fertilization with manure in the proportion of 100%, T6 =
Fertilization with manure in the proportion of 125%, T7 = Fertilization with manure in
proportion of 150% of the recommendation. Assessed the occurrence and density of
actinomycetes, bacteria and fungi by the drop plating method on media
specific. For growth, evaluations of the parameters were made
plant development after 83 days, such as: height, number of leaves and flowers
and rod diameter. The data obtained were evaluated by the “F” test, in cases of
significance was performed by comparing means using the Scott Knott test at 5%
probability.Organic fertilization improved the development of the aerial part of
nasturtium, induced flowering and greater density of bacteria in its
rhizosphere, but the populations of bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes were
lower than the ground.
