Abstract (English): Plant spacing management in watermelon alters plant competition for water, light, and nutrients, influencing fruit yield, morphology, and quality. The study aimed to evaluate the spacing management between plants of two watermelon hybrids in terms of morphology and fruit yield and quality. Two watermelon hybrids (NUN 21613 and NUN 21901) and three plant spacings (0.60, 0.80 and 1.0 m with 2,5 m between rows) were studied in a randomized block design arranged in a 2 × 3 factorial scheme with five replications. Fruit firmness, the content of total soluble solids, visual, and sensorial notes at 0, 7 and 14 days after harvest, length of the main branch of the plant, fresh fruit mass, number of fruits per plant and per hectare, and fruit yield were evaluated from August to December 2018. The greater planting spacing provided better vegetative development, higher yield, and increased resistance of the watermelon fruit to deterioration after harvest. The physicochemical and sensory characteristics of the fruits were not affected by the spacing and hybrids of watermelon in this study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Portuguese): O manejo do espaçamento entre plantas na melancia altera a competição das plantas por água, luz e nutrientes, pois a população de plantas influencia a produtividade da cultura, a morfologia do fruto e a qualidade. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o manejo do espaçamento entre plantas de dois híbridos de melancia quanto à morfologia, produtividade e qualidade dos frutos. Híbridos de melancia (NUN 21613 e NUN 21901) e os espaçamentos entre plantas (0,60, 0,80 e 1,0 m) e 2,5 m entre linhas de plantio foram estudados, no delineamento de blocos ao acaso em esquema fatorial 2 × 3, com cinco repetições. Firmeza do fruto, teor de sólidos solúveis totais, notas visuais e sensoriais aos 0, 7 e 14 dias após a colheita, comprimento do ramo principal da planta, massa fresca do fruto, número de frutos por planta e hectare e rendimento foram avaliados de agosto a dezembro de 2018. O maior espaçamento de plantio proporcionou melhor desenvolvimento vegetativo, maior produtividade e maior resistência do fruto da melancia à deterioração após a colheita. As características físico-químicas e sensoriais dos frutos não foram afetadas pelos espaçamentos e híbridos da melancia neste estudo. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
