Respuesta agronómica de plántulas de plátano (Musa AAB) al uso de bioestimulantes, bajo condiciones de invernadero.

Abstract

The present research was carried out on the premises of the experimental farm “Río Suma” of the agricultural engineering program of the Universidad Laica “Eloy Alfaro” de Manabí extension in El Carmen, with the objective of evaluating the agronomic response of banana seedlings (Musa- AAB) to the use of biostimulants, under greenhouse conditions, for this a completely randomized block design (DBCA) was implemented in which 5 treatments and 4 repetitions were established, for the treatments four organic growth stimulators were chosen, Biol Supermagro (5mL L-1), seaweed (5mL L-1), humic acid (2mL L-1) and Trichobiol (25mL L-1) in plus a control, without application of biostimulants, to carry out the research, corms in optimal conditions were chosen and they were placed in a greenhouse with the aim of accelerating the multiplication of the seedlings. The results found determined that for the variables days to sprouting, number of roots and root weight occupied the best range of significance, the biostimulant that had the greatest response was the T3 treatment (Humic acid) with a rapid sprouting of 4,75 days, presenting several roots of 31,25 and a weight of 55g emitted in the application of the growth stimulant, while the remaining variables had non-significant differences in the study carried out.
