Respuestas bioquímico-fisiológicas de especies de Agave a la restricción de humedad

Abstract: 4Autor para la correspondencia: hugo.ramirez@uaslp.mxResumen: En México se encuentra la mayor riqueza de especies de Agave, distribuidas en ambientes diversos. Para contribuir con el conocimiento en torno a las formas de tolerar las restricciones de humedad se evaluó el efecto de dos potenciales de agua (Ψ) en el sustrato (-0.7 y -3.5 MPa) durante 14 meses, en invernadero, sobre el crecimiento, la distribución de biomasa, el grosor foliar y el contenido de prolina en dos especies del subgénero Littaea (A. lech… Show more

“…Tolerance to water scarcity by biomass distribution and increase in proline content varied among species, each one having different physiological and biochemical responses, revealing the ample tolerance of species of Agave to different environmental conditions. 70 Also, as in other CAM plants, CO 2 assimilation in Agave is favored by moderate temperatures of 20 C-25 C, but is inhibited by temperatures above 30 C. In A. tequilana "Azul" maximum daily CO 2 assimilation reached 664 mmol m −2 d −1 at average day and night temperatures of 25 C and 17 C, respectively. 3 However, CO 2 assimilation in A. angustifolia decreased at temperatures above 20 C, 4 suggesting CO 2 assimilation in Agave is favored by that temperature range.…”

“…Biomass production was inhibited in all analyzed species in conditions of lower water availability (−3.5 MPa), but in species adapted to dry regions ( A. tequilana , A. durangensis , A. lechuguilla Torr., and A. salmiana ) the number of leaves and plant coverage were maintained. Tolerance to water scarcity by biomass distribution and increase in proline content varied among species, each one having different physiological and biochemical responses, revealing the ample tolerance of species of Agave to different environmental conditions …”

“…De hecho, cuando se controla el efecto de los otros factores, solamente la cobertura de mantillo tiene una asociación fuerte con la cobertura de A. angustifolia. Es conocida la capacidad de los agaves de sobrevivir en suelos pobres y secos (Ramírez-Tobías et al, 2014;Owen et al, 2015), y su habilidad de asociarse con hongos micorrizó-genos (Carmona-Escalante et al, 2013), que le permiten aumentar su eficiencia en la adquisición de agua y nutrimentos edáficos.…”

“…Asimismo, aunque la reproducción por semillas podría generar un patrón menos agregado, la germinación y sobrevivencia para magueyes silvestres en ambientes naturales es un evento muy poco frecuente (menor a 1%) (Jordan y Nobel, 1979;Ramírez-Tobías et al, 2014), como se pudo notar en la menor frecuencia relativa de individuos de clase de tamaño I. Es probable que la reproducción sexual sea importante en el mantenimiento de la diversidad y en la generación de nuevas combinaciones genéticas; sin embargo, se ha reportado que su contribución demográfica es prácticamente nula y el mantenimiento y crecimiento de las poblaciones ocurre principalmente por reproducción asexual (Arizaga y Ezcurra, 2002).…”
