Morphological variability in fruits from a single tacaco [Sechium tacaco (Pittier) C. Jeffrey] population along the time
The morphological characteristics of fruits from a single tacaco population from Costa Rica were measured in June 2013 and September 2015. Ten quantitative variables were compared. There were statistically significant differences between evaluation dates for the following fruit variables: weight, wi...

Ten quantitative variables were compared. There were statistically significant differences between evaluation dates for the following fruit variables: weight, width, thickness, number of complete longitudinal sutures, number of incomplete longitudinal sutures, length/width ratio, and length/thickness ratio. There were no significant differences for fruit length, number of fruit spines, and fruit width/thickness ratio. This is the first notice about the morphological variability in tacaco fruits of a single population along the time. These results provide evidence of the gene flow magnitude in this species. Se evaluaron las características morfológicas de los frutos de una población de tacaco en Costa Rica, en dos fechas diferentes: junio de 2013 y setiembre de 2015. Se compararon 10 variables cuantitativas. Se presentaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre las fechas de evaluación para las siguientes variables del fruto: peso, ancho, grosor, número de suturas longitudinales completas, número de suturas longitudinales incompletas, relación longitud/ ancho, y relación longitud/grosor. No se encontraron diferencias significativas para las variables longitud del fruto, número de espinas del fruto, y relación ancho/grosor del fruto. En la presente investigación se informa por primera vez sobre la variabilidad morfológica en frutos de tacaco a través del tiempo en una población. Los resultados evidencian la magnitud del flujo de genes en esta especie. 2018-10-03 2020-09-25T23:12:04Z 2020-09-25T23:12:04Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.tec.ac.cr/index.php/tec_marcha/article/view/3956 10.18845/tm.v31i4.3956 https://hdl.handle.net/2238/11822 spa https://revistas.tec.ac.cr/index.php/tec_marcha/article/view/3956/3544 application/pdf Editorial Tecnológica de Costa Rica (entidad editora) Tecnología en marcha Journal; Vol. 31, Núm. 4: Octubre-Noviembre 2018; pág. 15-24 Revista Tecnología en Marcha; Vol. 31, Núm. 4: Octubre-Noviembre 2018; pág. 15-24 2215-3241 0379-3982 |
