Concentration, invitro, Aloe vera Mill, rootingAbstract
The study was carried out in the Physiology laboratory of the Faculty of Chemical Engineering and Agronomy, in order to determine the most effective application concentration of the A. vera Mill gel to achieve an in vitro substrate, 1500 ml of the mesophyll of the plant and from this the other concentrations were made: T-1 concentration of 0.25 ml. L¯¹ of A. vera Gel, T-2 of 0.50 ml. L¯¹, T-3 0, 75 ml.L ¯¹ and T-4 as Control. An Artificial Climate Chamber was used to imitate a natural environment: lighting, temperature, ambient humidity. The variables evaluated were: number and length of the root, height of the plants (cm), and number of leaves. The best results were obtained using the concentration of 0.50 ml.L-¹, with a greater number of roots per bud, greater total length of the same, as well as the number of leaves, being shown that this species can effectively be used as substrate and obtain vitroplants of coffee var. Robust of optimum quality.
