Evaluation in two agroecosystems of the behavior of papaya vitroplants cv Maradol roja
Journal Title: Biotecnología Vegetal - Year 2003, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Papaya plants (Carica papaya L.) cv Maradol Roja, obtained by in vitro culture (3rd and 12th subculture), and control plants spread by the traditional way, were planted in two agroecosystems. When evaluating the obtained results, in both agroecosystems it could be observed that the characters which differed statistically were: percentages of feminine and hermaphrodite flowers, percentages of feminine and hermaphrodite fruits, height of the first fruits, weight of the fruits and yields per plant and per hectare, with a better behavior in the plants obtained in vitro . The plants, in both agroecosystems, expressed a good agronomic behavior.
