Identificação De Genótipos De Feijão-Caupi Tolerantes E Suscetíveis Ao Déficit Hídrico

Abstract

Objetivou-se com esse trabalho identificar genótipos de feijão-caupi tolerantes e suscetíveis ao déficit hídrico, utilizando-se duas metodologias, estresse hídrico simulado com o uso de PEG6000 (Polietilenoglicol) e Screening Box. Os experimentos foram conduzidos em casa de vegetação no delineamento inteiramente casualizado com três repetições. Para a metodologia com PEG6000 foram utilizados 15 genótipos e duas testemunhas, com três repetições, totalizando 90 amostras. Foram selecionadas seis plântulas por genótipo, utilizaram-se três caixas contendo apenas água destilada e outras três com nível de potencial osmótico de - 0,2 MPa de PEG6000. A avaliação foi feita até atingir o ponto máximo de crescimento das raízes. Para a metodologia de Screening Box foram utilizados 15 genótipos, onde estes foram avaliados quanto à tolerância ao déficit hídrico no estádio de plântula. As duas metodologias mostraram-se eficientes na seleção de genótipos de feijão-caupi, os genótipos Santo Inácio Vermelho e BRS Tumucumaque, foram os mais sensíveis à seca, em ambas as metodologias.Palavras-chave: Vigna unguiculata, seca, plântulas. COWPEA GENOTYPES TOLERANT AND SUSCEPTIBLE TO WATER DEFICIT ABSTRACT: Objective to identify tolerant and susceptible cowpeas genotypes to water deficiency at the seedlings stage of growth, using two methodologies such as (a) water stress with the use of PEG6000 (Polyethylene glycol) and the Screening Box were used in the present research. The experiments were conducted in greenhouse environments using a completely randomized design with three replications. For the PEG6000 approach, 15 genotypes and two controls treatments were used in three replications in a total of 90 samples. Six seedlings were selected per genotype by using three boxes containing only distilled water. In the other treatment, three level of osmotic potential of -0.2 MPa of PEG6000. The evaluations of the trials were done until the Screening Box approach, 15 genotypes were used and were evaluated for tolerance to water deficit at the seedling stage of growth. The two methodologies were efficient in the selection of cowpea genotypes, the genotypes Santo InácioVermelho and BRS Tumucumaque were the most sensitive to drought in both methodologies.Keywords: drought, Vigna unguiculata, seedlings.

TOLERANCE TO WATER STRESS IN DIFFERENT VARIETIES OF COWPEA (Vigna unguiculata L.) IN SEEDLING PHASE

“…Among them, 46 were collected in 19 municipalities from Ceará state; two were obtained from the germplasm bank at the Federal University of Ceará (UFC), Fortaleza city, Ceará; one from Sousa city, Paraíba; and one from Embrapa Meio Norte, Teresina city, Piauí (Table 1). Also, one variety was considered tolerant (Pingo de Ouro 1,2) and another susceptible (Santo Inácio) to drought, according to previous studies (RIVAS et al, 2016;LIMA et al, 2018). Both were used as controls.…”
