Numerical Characterization in situ chayote germplasm [Sechium edule (Jacq.) Swartz] community on Castillito, Savannas, Madriz ; CARACTERIZACIÓN NUMÉRICA in situ DE GERMOPLASMA DE CHAYOTE [Sechium edule (JACQ.) SWARTZ], COMUNIDAD EL CASTILLITO, LAS SABANAS, MADRIZ

The study was conducted to determine the in situ variation of pataste or chayote [Sechium edule (Jacq.) Swartz] in El Castillito, Las Sabanas, Madriz. Thirty five chayotes accessions were collected, and thirty four quantitative and qualitative variables such as fruit and seed size, shape and fruit color, presence of thorns and fiber, among others were measured. Descriptive, main components and clustering analysis were applied. The fruits were from cream to dark green colour, round, oval and elongated, and with spines. The first three main components isolated 60% of the total variation. Cluster... Mehr ...

The study was conducted to determine the in situ variation of pataste or chayote [Sechium edule (Jacq.) Swartz] in El Castillito, Las Sabanas, Madriz. Thirty five chayotes accessions were collected, and thirty four quantitative and qualitative variables such as fruit and seed size, shape and fruit color, presence of thorns and fiber, among others were measured. Descriptive, main components and clustering analysis were applied. The fruits were from cream to dark green colour, round, oval and elongated, and with spines. The first three main components isolated 60% of the total variation. Cluster analysis (Ward and Gower method) gathered the accessions in six groups. The accessions showed a considerable variation in many features.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5377/calera.v10i15.667 ; El estudio se realizó para determinar variación in situ en chayote o pataste [Sechium edule (Jacq.) Swartz] en la comunidad El Castillito, Las Sabanas, Madriz. Se muestrearon 35 accesiones de chayote, y se midieron 34 variables cuantitativas y cualitativas como tamaño de fruto y semilla, forma y color del fruto, presencia de espinas y cantidad de fibra, entre otras. Análisis descriptivo, componentes principales y conglomerados se aplicaron a dicha variables. Los frutos fueron de coloración crema hasta verde oscuro; redondos, ovoides y alargados; y con presencia de espinas. Los tres primeros componentes principales aislaron el 60 % de la variación total. El análisis de conglomerado (método Ward y Gower) agrupó a las accesiones en 6 grupos. Los materiales muestreados presentaron variación considerable en muchas características.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5377/calera.v10i15.667
