- Abstract
The acidity of tropical soils can affect development of agronomic species, making necessary the liming, however, crops show different responses to lime application. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of lime levels on growth and nutrients content in aerial part of habanero pepper (Capsicum chinense Jacq.), cultivated on a Yellow Latosol Dystrophic typic, clayey texture, in a greenhouse. The experimental design consisted of randomized design, with six doses of lime (0; 250; 500; 750; 1500; 2000 kg ha-1), four replications and three plants per pot in each plot. Up to sixty days after transplanting, were evaluated height, diameter, shoot dry matter, root dry matter, content and nutritional efficiency of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Zn, Cu, Fe and Mn. Was observed that the addition of increasing doses of lime led to linear gains in the biological characteristics of habanero pepper, mainly in dry matter production. Furthermore, higher concentrations of nutrients in shoot dry matter were found in treatments that received higher doses of amendment, except the Fe.
