Zusammenfassung: | ABSTRACT Cajuí (Anacardium spp) is an endemic fruit trees species in the Northeastern region of Brazil. Thus, this trial aimed to estimate the repeatability coefficients of the agrotechnological variables and to predict the genetic gains of a cajuí improvement population located at the Embrapa Meio-Norte. The data of twelve variables from every crop were evaluated using Selegen-REML/BLUP. The variables were ordered accordingly: V1 fruit mass (FM, in g), V2 peduncle mass (PM, in g), V3 chestnut mass (CM in g), V4 basal diameter (BD in cm), V5 apical diameter (AD in cm), V6 fruit length (FL in cm), V7 firmness of endosperm (FIRM, in N), V8 content of vitamin C (PVC in %), V9 total soluble solids (TSS in %), V10 pH of endosperm (pH), V11 total titratable acidity (TTA in %), and V12 relation TSS/TTA (undimensional). The fruit mass and its vitamin C contents can be estimated from measures of the fruit basal diameter and/or peduncle length, which are easy to be taken and measured experimentally. The medium and high estimates of the repeatability coefficient allowed for the early selection of the genotype 4 with accuracy from the two measures (years). The genotype 4 showed the best prediction means for physical and technological attributes and may be considered a possible candidate for asexual reproduction on crops with double purpose (fresh consumption and industrial).
RESUMO O cajuízeiro (Anacardium spp) é uma das muitas espécies frutíferas arbóreas endêmicas da região Nordeste do Brasil. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estimar os coeficientes de herdabilidade e repetibilidade das variáveis agrotecnológicas e predizer os ganhos genéticos de uma população de melhoramento de cajuí da Embrapa Meio Norte. Os dados das variáveis estudadas de cada safra foram avaliados no programa Selegen-REML/BLUP. A ordem das variáveis analisadas foi: V1: peso do fruto (PF, em g), V2: peso do pedúnculo (PP, em g), V3: peso da castanha (PC, em g), V4: diâmetro basal (DB, em cm), V5: diâmetro apical (DA, em cm), V6: comprimento do fruto (CP, em cm), V7: firmeza do endosperma (FIRMEZA, em N), V8: teor de vitamina C (VitC, em mg/100g), V9: teor de sólidos solúveis totais (SST, em %), V10: pH do endosperma (pH), V11: acidez total titulável (ATT, em %) e V12: relação STT/ATT (adimensional). O peso do fruto e teor de vitamina C podem ter seus valores preditos a partir do diâmetro basal e/ou comprimento do pedúnculo cujas medidas são de fácil mensuração. As medianas e altas estimativas dos c |
