Resumo: The objective of this work was to evaluate structural and morphogenetic responses of two species and five cultivars of brachiaria to defoliation intensities. The cultivars Marandu, Xaraés, Arapoty, Capiporã (Urochloa brizantha), and Basilisk (U. decumbens) were mechanically defoliated at 15 and 7.5 cm, in mid-summer and mid-winter. The experimental units (9x4 m plots) were irrigated and fertilized with 220 kg ha-1 per year of N and K2O. Morphogenetic characteristics measured were: phyllochron, leaf senescence and life span, and leaf appearance and elongation rate. The structural characteristics evaluated were: number of leaves per tiller, final leaf length of fully expanded leaves, stems length, senescence/growth ratio, and tiller density. Variations in meteorological conditions of each season promoted increasing of the appearance rates and leaf elongation, and decreasing of the phyllochron and leaf life span. The structural features most responsive to the gradient promoted by harvesting heights were the final leaf length of expanded leaves and tiller density. The lower harvest height had the greatest impact on growth dynamics in comparison to senescence, in individual tillers. The cultivars Xaraés and Capiporã were more productive due to higher leaf elongation rates and higher tiller density.

As cultivares Marandu, Xaraés, Arapoty, Capiporã (Urochloa brizantha) e Basilisk (U. Decumbens) foram desfolhadas mecanicamente a 15 e 7,5 cm de altura, durante o verão e o inverno. Utilizaram-se unidades experimentais de 9x4 m, irrigadas e adubadas com 220 kg ha-1 por ano de N e K2O. As características morfogênicas avaliadas foram: filocrono e senescência, duração de vida e taxas de aparecimento e alongamento de folhas. As características estruturais foram: número de folhas vivas por perfilho, comprimento final das folhas expandidas e de colmos, relação senescência/crescimento e densidade populacional de perfilhos. Variações nas condições meteorológicas, em cada estação, promoveram aumentos nas taxas de aparecimento e alongamento, diminuição do filocrono e duração de vida das folhas. As características estruturais mais responsivas ao gradiente promovido pelas alturas de corte foram o comprimento final de folhas expandidas e a densidade populacional de perfilhos. A altura de corte mais baixa exerceu maior impacto na dinâmica de crescimento do que na senescência, em perfilhos individuais. As cultivares Xaraés e Capiporã foram as mais produtivas, em razão das maiores taxas de alongamento foliar e maior densidade populacional de perfilhos.Pesquisa Agropecuaria BrasileiraPesquisa Agropecuária BrasileiraFundação de Amparo a Pesquisa no Estado de São Paulo - FAPESPLara, Márcio André StefanelliPedreira, Carlos Guilherme Silveira2011-09-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/10099Pesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira; v.46, n.7, jul. 2011; 760-767Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira; v.46, n.7, jul. 2011; 760-7671678-39210100-104xreponame:Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAporhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/10099/6425https://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/downloadSuppFile/10099/5431info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2014-06-04T16:28:55Zoai:ojs.seer.sct.embrapa.br:article/10099Revistahttp://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pabPRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phppab@sct.embrapa.br || sct.pab@embrapa.br1678-39210100-204Xopendoar:2014-06-04T16:28:55Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
