Abstract

An efficient way to evaluate the nutritional state of plants is through monitoring following standardized leaf collection methods that represent their real nutritional state. It is necessary, the determination of the standard leaflet to be collected in sampling for foliar diagnosis of ornamental ginger, enabling evaluation of the nutritional state of the plant. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the standard collection leaflet for the evaluation of the nutritional state of ornamental ginger plants. The study was developed in the experimental field of ornamental plants of the Agrarian Sciences Institute of the Universidade Federal Rural da Amazônia, Belém/PA. The experimental design was randomized block design with 15 treatments (leaflets 1 to 15) and 4 repetitions. The contents of macro and micronutrients determined in the laboratory were submitted to multivariate statistical techniques of Principal Component Analysis and evaluated the similarity of treatments by Cluster Analysis. The leaflets 7, 8 and 12 were more representative of the nutritional state of the plant for micronutrient analysis, while for macronutrient analysis, leaflets 6 and 8 were more representative. Leaflet 8 can be used for joint analysis of macro- and micronutrients in a single sample collection.
