English abstract Among the main problems of some temperate fruit species, such as the apple tree (Malus domestica), are the poor set of fruits and low production. Polyamines and Self-Incompatibility Control Substances (SICS), involving mineral nutrients such as manganese and boron, are the major chemical compounds used to reduce these problems. The aim of this study was to use popular polyamines putrescine (Put) at 0.1, 0.25 mM, spermine (Spm) and spermidine (Spd) both at 0.05, 0.25 mM and SICS at 1, 2 mg L-1, alone or with cotton coverage bags and control to show the effects of these chemical compounds on yield indices and qualitative traits of apple (Malus domestica) cv ‘Red Delicious’. Results showed that Spd (0.25 mM) and SICS (1 mg L-1) had higher effect on yield per weight and per fruit number, final fruit set and ISI, but Spd (0.25 mM) decreased final drop. Put (0.1 mM + ccb), Spd (0.25 mM) and SICS (2 mg L-1 + ccb) were the most suitable treatments in order to increase the qualitative characteristics
Portuguese abstract Entre os principais problemas de algumas espécies frutíferas de clima temperado, como a macieira (Malus domestica), está o fraco conjunto de frutos e a baixa produção. As Poliaminas e Substancias de Controle de Auto-Incompatibilidade (self-incompatibility control substances-SICS) (envolvendo nutrientes minerais tais como manganês e boro) são os principais compostos químicos usados para reduzir esses problemas. O objetivo deste trabalho foi empregar a poliamina putrescina (Put) em 0,1, 0,25 mM, espermina (Spm) e espermidina (Spd) ambas em 0,05, 0,25 mM e SICS em 1,2 mg L-1, sozinhos ou com sacos cobertos de algodão, para demonstrar o efeito destes elementos químicos nos índices de produção e características qualitativas da maça (Malus domestica) ‘Red Delicious’. Resultados mostraram que a espermidina (0.25 mM) e SICS (1 mg L-1) tiveram um efeito maior na produção por peso e pelo número de frutos, o conjunto final de frutos e ISI, mas a espermidina (0.25 mM) caiu na produção final. Put (0.1 mM + sca), Spd (0.25 mM) e SICS (2 mg L-1 + sca) foram os tratamentos mais adequados para aumentar as características qualitativas
