    Evaluación de la adaptabilidad de diferentes híbridos de zanahoria (Daucus carota) en el cantón Quero.
    (2024-08) Criollo Sánchez, Anderson Ismael; Guerrero Cando, David Aníbal
    The carrot crop (Daucus carota) has a high impact on the world's diet. It is a crop grown nationally due to its high content of beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A that improves visibility and helps protect the skin from radiation solar. The adaptability of different carrot hybrids can be given as an alternative in all national trade and the increase in income that the carrot producer can obtain. The objective of this research was to evaluate the adaptability of different carrot hybrids (Daucus carota) with two controls for the Quero Canton. Adaptation and agronomic characteristics were evaluated, as well as performance for each of the treatments. The test was carried out in the community of Puñachizag belonging to the Quero canton, province of Tungurahua, located at an altitude of 3,189 meters above sea level with its geographical coordinates of 1%15'30" South latitude and 78%30'40" West latitude. A DBCA randomized complete block design is applied, with 4 treatments plus 2 controls with three repetitions. The data obtained from the research were analyzed with the statistical program such as Infostat, an ADEVA was applied and the Tukey test at 5% was applied to the significant responses. The results obtained from the research show that the T4 treatment (Cascade hybrid) was best adapted to the area since both the agronomic characteristics and the yield were 20.60 T/Ha and it was the most appropriate compared to the other treatments evaluated. Based on the research carried out, it is suggested to use the cascade hybrid due to its greater adaptability.
