Variability of photosynthetic performance among improved genotypes of Coffea canephora

ABSTRACT This study evaluated the variability of photosynthetic performance of 27 improved genotypes of Conilon coffee, cultivated in the Southern of the Espírito Santo State. The photosynthetic performance was based on the measurement of gas exchange rates and chlorophyll in the period most favorab...

description ABSTRACT This study evaluated the variability of photosynthetic performance of 27 improved genotypes of Conilon coffee, cultivated in the Southern of the Espírito Santo State. The photosynthetic performance was based on the measurement of gas exchange rates and chlorophyll in the period most favorable to the photosynthetic activity and in different stages of the reproductive cycle: flowering, fruit initiation, grain formation and fruit maturation; being expressed as the average (weighted by the number of days) along the phenological stages of the third reproductive cycle of the plants. It was possible to verify the existence of sufficient variability to differentiate the photosynthetic performance among the 27 genotypes throughout the reproductive cycle, even starting from a group of already improved genotypes. Among the physiological parameters, the rate of carbon assimilation, stomatal conductance and the transpiration rate stood out as parameters for the study of variability, mainly due to their contributions to the clustering of genotypes. The genotype 108 is highlighted due to its high photosynthetic rate, associated with higher relative content of chlorophyll, as well as reasonable water use efficiency. The genotypes 205, 206 and 305 stood out in terms of water use and carbon assimilation.
