Adecuación de técnicas viverísticas en la producción de arbustos ornamentales

Abstract

[SPA ]La disponibilidad de agua para riego está cada vez más limitada, por lo tanto, el sector viverístico de arbustos ornamentales tiene que reducir del consumo de agua sin perder la calidad del producto. El objetivo de la tesis, es estudiar la aplicación de cuatro técnicas viverísticas susceptibles de reducir el consumo hídrico, y la optimización de la producción de Rhamnus alaternus mediante distintos niveles de sombreo. Los resultados mostraron: 1) el sistema “pot-in-pot” PIP reduce el consumo de M. communis y mejora su tolerancia al estrés hídrico por las menores temperaturas extremas sufridas en la raíz, que redujeron el ratio peso seco aéreo/peso seco radical (ratio PSA/PSR). 2) El uso del dendrómetro permite la detección del estrés en los arbustos de diámetro pequeño, pero es menos sensible que el potencial hídrico, lo que limita su uso a situaciones donde un estrés moderado no sea un problema (endurecimiento o reducción del crecimiento). 3) Rhamnus alaternus es un arbusto con plasticidad a distintos niveles de luz, pero su estética se deteriora con niveles superiores al 84%, mientras que se mejora con sombreados del 25% y el 50% en primavera y verano respectivamente. 4) El sistema Acclima permite un control preciso del contenido volumétrico de agua (θ), lo que nos permitió verificar que B. semperflores aumenta su crecimiento de forma linear hasta un nivel de θ de 0.348 m3•m-3, por encima del cual un mayor consumo no lo incrementa. 5) El riego con aguas salinas, daña la estética y el crecimiento de Euonymus japonicus, sin embargo, el PIP reduce estos daños porque produjo un menor consumo que incrementó el drenaje y redujo la conductividad eléctrica de los poros del sustrato. Además, las temperaturas menos extremas en la raíz favorecieron el mejor desarrollo radical, lo que redujo su ratio PSA/PSR. En conclusión, el uso de las técnicas estudiadas, permitirían una reducción del consumo de agua y la optimización de la producción de R. alaternus mediante el manejo de la luz. Además, el dendrómetro permite una estimación del estado hídrico de la planta y el sistema PIP aumenta la tolerancia a la salinidad.

[ENG] The availability of irrigation water is increasingly limited compared to a nursery sector that crops many varieties of ornamental plants with different water requirements. In this situation, the crop of ornamental shrubs has to reduce water consumption without losing quality. The aim of this thesis is to study the application of four nursery techniques that can reduce water consumption, and the crop optimization of Rhamnus alaternus (native Mediterranean shrub with little water requirements) with different levels of shading. The results showed: 1) The “pot-in-pot” PIP system reduces the consumption of M. communis and improved its tolerance to water stress due to the lower extreme temperatures in the root, which reduced the ratio shoot dry weight/root dry weight (S/R). 2) The use of dendrometer allows the detection of stress in the shrubs of small diameter, but was less sensitive compared to the leaf water potential, which limits their use to situations where moderate stress is not a problem (hardening or growth control). 3) Rhamnus alaternus is a shrub with plasticity to different light levels, but its aesthetic value is compromised with levels above 84%, so that 25% and 50% of shading is recommended in spring and summer, respectively. 4) The Acclima system allows precise control of volume water content (θ), which allowed us to asses that B. semperflores growth increases linearly up to a θ of 0,348 m3•m-3, above which a greater consumption did not increase its growth. 5) Irrigation with saline water damages the aesthetic and growth of Euonymus japonicus, however, the PIP reduces these damages because produces a lower consumption which increased the leachate and reduced the pore water electrical conductivity. In addition, less extreme temperatures in the root favored better root development, which reduced its S/R. In conclusion, the use of the techniques studied, would allow a reduction in water consumption and the optimization of R. alaternus production by light management. In addition, the dendrometer allows estimating the plant water status and the PIP system increases the salinity tolerance.
