| The objective of this study was to analyze the effect of biosolid composts (BC) and carbonized rice hull (RH) on the production of Coffea arabica L. cv Catuaí Vermelho seedlings (IAC H 2077-2-5-99) grown in tubets. A totally randomized experimental design with five treatments and four replications was conducted in a nursery, to evaluate Co, Ni, Cr, Pb, Cu, Mn and Zn contents in roots, stems and leaves. Higher contents of Cr, Co, Ni, Pb, Cu and Zn were found in roots, while leaves carried the highest content of Mn. Zn in leaves went from average to high in plants developed in BC. In plants developed in RH. Mn content was about four times higher than the adequate concentration. Ni, Co, Cr, Pb and Cu contents found in leaves were considered normal, according... |
