Summary: | ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to determine the base temperature of escarole and to apply in the phenological analysis of crop during four growing periods. The study was carried out with escarole (Chicorium endivia) ‘Escarola Lisa’ cultivar, at the Federal University of Santa Maria, campus Frederico Westphalen-RS. The experiment was performed in a randomized block design with four sowing periods (P1: 2/15/2015; P2: 04/29/2015, P3: 07/22/2015, P4: 10/16/2015) and 10 replicates, each replicate being one plant. The evaluations consisted of counting the number of leaves, performed three times a week after transplanting date until the harvesting point. To determine the base temperature, the following methods were used: standard deviation in degree-days (SDgd), standard deviation in days (SDd), coefficient of variation in degree-days (CVgd), coefficient of variation in days (CVd), regression coefficient (RC) and X-intercept. The base temperature for emission of two successive leaves in the escarole is 4.7°C, obtained by values of 4.0 and 5.5°C, observed in the SDgd and RC methods. For two leaves emission, the temperature between 16.6 and 27.8°C day leaf-1 is necessary.
RESUMO O objetivo deste trabalho foi determinar a temperatura base da chicória e aplicá-la na análise fenológica da cultura, durante quatro períodos de cultivo. O trabalho foi realizado com a cultura da chicória (Chicorium endivia) cultivar Escarola Lisa, na Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, campus Frederico Westphalen-RS. O experimento foi conduzido em delineamento de blocos ao acaso com quatro períodos de cultivo (P1: 15/2/2015; P2: 29/04/2015, P3: 22/07/2015, P4: 16/10/2015) em 10 repetições, com uma planta por repetição. As avaliações consistiram da contagem do número de folhas, realizada três vezes por semana após transplante até o ponto de colheita. Para determinação de temperatura base utilizaram-se os métodos desvio padrão em graus dias (DPgd), desvio padrão em dias (DPd), coeficiente da variação em graus dias (CVgd), coeficiente de variação em dias (CVd), coeficiente de regressão (CR), X-intercepto. Desta forma, a temperatura base para emissão de duas folhas sucessivas na escarola é de 4,7°C, obtida através dos valores de 4,0 e 5,5°C, observados nos métodos DPgd e CR. Para a emissão de duas folhas é necessário entre 16,6 e 27,8°C dia folha-1. |
