Resumo: Worldwide, Brazil holds the fifth position in melon fruits exportation, further expanding its products to provide for the growing demand. This expansion is the result of the development and application of new technologies, including the management of the use of biostimulants. However, for melon crops, the information in the literature on the use of biostimulants remains limited to the effects of different doses on fruit quality at the time of harvest. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the influence of different methods of pre-harvest application of two biostimulants on the production and postharvest conservation of fruits of yellow melon cv. Iracema. The treatments consisted of a combination of three factors: two plant biostimulants (Crop Set® and Spray Dunger®), two application methods of the products (fertigation and spraying), and five times of postharvest storage (0, 14, 21, 28 and 35 days). An additional control treatment corresponded to plants without biostimulant application. The fruits were evaluated for production and physicochemical attributes: average mass, yield, flesh firmness, titratable acidity, soluble solids content, SSC/TA ratio, pH, total soluble sugars, and weight loss. Fertigation is the recommended application method of biostimulants for yellow melon due to its effect on the increase of average mass, yield, flesh firmness, soluble solids content, and total soluble sugars of the fruits in relation to the spraying method.

Essa expansão é resultado do desenvolvimento e aplicação de novas tecnologias e técnicas de manejo. Dentre as técnicas de manejo para a cultura do melão que vêm sendo estudadas, estão o uso de bioestimulantes. Apesar dos benefícios dos bioestimulantes na qualidade dos frutos, as pesquisas com esses produtos informam o seu efeito quando aplicados em diferentes doses somente no momento da colheita. O objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar a influência de diferentes métodos de aplicação pré-colheita de dois bioestimulantes na produção e conservação pós-colheita de frutos de melão amarelo cv. Iracema. Os tratamentos consistiram na combinação de três fatores: dois bioestimulantes (Crop Set® e Spray Dunger®), dois métodos de aplicação (fertirrigação e pulverização) e cinco tempos de armazenamento pós-colheita (0, 14, 21, 28 e 35 days). Os frutos foram avaliados pela produção e pelos atributos físico-químicos: massa média, produtividade, firmeza de polpa, acidez titulável, conteúdo de sólidos solúveis, relação SS/AT, pH, açúcares solúveis totais e perda de massa. A fertirrigação é o método de aplicação indicado para ambos os bioestimulantes pelos seus efeitos positivos na massa média, produtividade, firmeza de polpa, conteúdo de sólidos solúveis e açúcares solúveis totais dos frutos em relação à pulverização.EDUFU2021-12-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/biosciencejournal/article/view/5368210.14393/BJ-v37n0a2021-53682Bioscience Journal ; Vol. 37 (2021): Continuous Publication; e37075Bioscience Journal ; v. 37 (2021): Continuous Publication; e370751981-3163reponame:Bioscience journal (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)instacron:UFUenghttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/biosciencejournal/article/view/53682/32914Brazil; Contemporary Copyright (c) 2021 Glêidson Bezerra de Góes, João Claudio Vilvert, Nícolas Oliveira de Araújo, José Francismar de Medeiros, Edna Maria Mendes Arouchahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGóes, Glêidson Bezerra de Vilvert, João ClaudioAraújo, Nícolas Oliveira de Medeiros, José Francismar deAroucha, Edna Maria Mendes2022-05-25T13:22:02Zoai:ojs.www.seer.ufu.br:article/53682Revistahttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/biosciencejournalPUBhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/biosciencejournal/oaibiosciencej@ufu.br||1981-31631516-3725opendoar:2022-05-25T13:22:02Bioscience journal (Online) - Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)false
