International audience. The aim of this work was to evaluate the productive response of the tannia in function of different sizes of seed-rhizomes. The experimental design was randomized block with three types of seed-rhizomes (cormel, cormel 1 and cormel 2) and seven replicates. The experimental plot consisted of 16 plants, whereas evaluated the eight central plants. It was evaluated the following characteristics: total fresh weight, net production and commercial production. It was verified that the total, net, cormel and of the cormel 1 production was greater when using the cormel rhizome as seed. However, the commercial production of the cormel was equal to the cormel 1. We recommend growing Xanthosoma mafaffa Schott using as seed cormel propagules by a larger production and for not being marketable.

A hydraulic model is compatible with rapid changes in leaf elongation under fluctuating evaporative demand and soil water status

Plants are constantly facing rapid changes in evaporative demand and soil water content, which affect their water status and growth. In apparent contradiction to a hydraulic hypothesis, leaf elongation rate (LER) declined in the m...

Control of expansive growth in water deficit: from phenotyping to field simulations

Maintenance of expansive growth under water deficit has been selected as a key target trait of DROPS because of its early response in drying conditions, its large genetic variability, its partially common control with reproductive...
