Resumo: The objective of this work was to evaluate the dependence of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) seedlings on cotyledonary leaves for early growth and establishment. Sets of two uniform emerging seedlings were used to quantify the initial growth and dry matter accumulation, as well as the intensity and stage of cotyledon damage in seedling establishment and to determine cotyledon protein, amino acid and carbohydrate contributions to the growing seedling. Cucumber seedling establishment was found to be highly dependent on cotyledonary leaves. Root system establishment was highly dependent on the health of the aerial part. One cotyledon was enough to maintain aerial growth of seedlings after unfolding the first true leaf. Cucumber seedlings depended on both cotyledons to keep root system growth at least until leaf area was equivalent to cotyledon area. Covering one or both cotyledons of seedlings with one unfolded leaf increased carbohydrate content of uncovered cotyledon and leaves compared with control seedlings. Cucumber seedlings are highly dependent on cotyledonary leaves and aerial parts are less dependent than root system. Cotyledon damage at early stages of plant establishment would adversely impact crop yield by reducing plant density, an important yield component, or slowing down seedling growth and establishment.

Grupos de duas plântulas uniformemente emergidas foram utilizados para quantificar o crescimento inicial e acúmulo de matéria seca, o efeito da intensidade e época de remoção dos cotilédones sobre o estabelecimento da plântula, e a contribuição de proteínas, aminoácidos e carboidratos dos cotilédones para o crescimento inicial. O estabelecimento das plântulas de pepino foi altamente dependente das folhas cotiledonares. As folhas cotiledonares foram fundamentais para o estabelecimento do sistema radicular. A presença de um cotilédone após a emissão da primeira folha verdadeira foi suficiente para manter o crescimento da parte aérea da plântula. Plântulas de pepino foram dependentes de ambas as folhas cotiledonares para sustentar o crescimento do sistema radicular, pelo menos até a equivalência entre área foliar e cotiledonar. A cobertura de uma ou ambas folhas cotiledonares antes da emissão da primeira folha verdadeira aumentou o conteúdo de carboidratos no cotilédone descoberto e nas folhas, comparado com a testemunha. O crescimento inicial de plântulas de pepino é altamente dependente das folhas cotiledonares, sendo a parte aérea menos dependente do que o sistema radicular. Danos nos cotilédones durante o crescimento inicial podem afetar o rendimento pela redução da densidade de plantas, um importante componente do rendimento, ou da taxa de crescimento e estabelecimento da plântula, que afeta a uniformidade da cultura.Pesquisa Agropecuaria BrasileiraPesquisa Agropecuária BrasileiraBisognin, Dilson AntônioVelasquez, LuisWidders, Irvin2005-06-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/6990Pesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira; v.40, n.6, jun. 2005; 531-539Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira; v.40, n.6, jun. 2005; 531-5391678-39210100-104xreponame:Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAenghttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/6990/4038info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2014-09-22T17:29:48Zoai:ojs.seer.sct.embrapa.br:article/6990Revistahttp://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pabPRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phppab@sct.embrapa.br || sct.pab@embrapa.br1678-39210100-204Xopendoar:2014-09-22T17:29:48Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
