- Abstract
In order to study variations in growth, partitioning of assimilates and fruit production of melons, Yellow types 'Gold Mine' under crops shaded by different meshes were evaluated. The experiment was carried out in field Research, Department of Plant Science, Universidade Federal de Viçosa, in the period from 24/11/2008 to 11/03/2009. The treatments were four culture environments: control (full sun) and under the Aluminet® 30%-O, Cromatinet® 30% and Sombrite®, 30% meshes with reductions in solar radiation, 30.85, 35.9 and 32.0%, respectively. The experimental design was completely randomized, with four replications. For the characteristics evaluated periodically it was used the split-plot design with environments allocated to plots and subplots periodic reviews. Among the shaded environments, melon cultivation in the mesh Aluminet® 30%-O was the treatment that stood out in terms of plant growth and fruit yield.
