title: Adaptability and stability of progenies of Jatropha curcas L. in different regions of Brazil

description: ABSTRACT Physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.) breeding programs have intensified in the past five years, locally selecting plants from various Brazilian regions. The objective of this study was to quantify the genotype x environment interaction of the physic nut grain production and the genetic progress obtained with the selection. From Half-sib progenies selected by Embrapa and EPAMIG, in 2008, three progeny trials were installed in the cities of Planaltina-DF, Nova Porteirinha-MG and Pelotas-RS, using a randomized block design with three replications of five plants per plot. Non-selected plant seeds and genetic material commercialized in Brazil were used as control. The genotype x environment interaction was significant for the J. curcas grain yield expression. We identified eight progenies of broad adaptability, three progenies of low adaptability, two progenies of specific adaptability to favorable environments and two progenies of specific adaptability to unfavorable environments of different Brazilian regions. Estimates of genetic progress indicate mass selection efficiency, with genetic gains of 28%, 76% and 177% in the Planaltina-DF, New Porteirinha-MG and Pelotas-RS, respectively. The genetic gains obtained by the centroid method were more balanced among environments, and therefore, preferable. The new means estimated with the cultivating of the selected progenies are: 2.34 ton.ha-1 in Planaltina-DF, 2.37 ton.ha-1 in Nova Porteirinha- MG and 2.09 ton.ha-1 in Pelotas-RS.

title: AMMI methodology in soybean: Cluster analysis with bootstrap resampling in genetic divergence and stability

description: ABSTRACT This study aimed to propose a clustering methodology with bootstrap resampling using the Additive Main Effects and Multiplicative Interaction Analysis (AMMI) to contribute to better prediction of phenotypic stability of genotypes and environments. It also aims to analyze the genetic divergence in the assessment of soybean lines, identify genotypes with high-yielding characteristics, with control of chewing and sucking insect pests, and cluster similar genotypes for the traits evaluated. A total of 24 experiments were conducted in randomized blocks, with two replications subdivided in experimental groups with common controls. AMMI with principal component analysis indicated that PC1 and PC2 were significant, explaining 83.9% of the sum of squares of the interaction. The first singular axis of AMMI analysis captured the highest percentage of "pattern" and, with subsequent accumulation of the dimensions of the axes, there was a decrease in the percentage of "pattern" and an increase in "noise". The Euclidean distance between genotype scores was used as the dissimilarity measure and clusters were obtained by the hierarchical method of Ward. Genotypes 97-8011, 97-8029, 97-8050 and IAS-5 had the best performance and are promising for recommendation purposes, with the greatest stability and best performance on grain yield.

title: Genotypic variation of agronomic traits as well as concentrations of Fe, Zn, P and phytate in soybean cultivars

description: ABSTRACT The staple diet of most of the world population is provided by cereal, which present levels of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) below the nutritional demand of humans. Other factors that may substantially interfere for the low intake of Fe and Zn are the anti- nutritional factors present in the edible parts of plants, such as heavy metals and phytate. Hence, the objective of this study was to evaluate the genotypic variation in terms of yield (kg ha-1), plant height, insertion height of first pod, as well as concentrations of Fe, Zn, phosphorus (P) and the anti-nutrient phytate in grains of 24 soybean cultivars and to identify cultivars with potential for biofortification. The field experiment was conducted in Rio Verde, state of Goiás by the technological center of COMIGO. The experimental design used in the study was a randomized block design with 24 treatments and three replications. The results showed that there is genotypic variation for grain yield (kg ha-1), plant height, and insertion height of first pod, as well as for the concentrations of Zn, Fe, P and concentration of anti-nutient phytate in grains among the soybean cultivars. Non-significant or low correlations were found among the evaluated parameters except for the relationship between P and phytate (r=0.733). The diversity found among soybean cultivars offers genotypes such as 8197RR, M 7908RR and BRS 262 with potential to develop cultivars with better ability to accumulate nutrients in grains.

title: Growth and nutrient accumulation in mycorrhized papaya seedlings cultivated in a phosphorus-fertilized substrate

description: ABSTRACT The indiscriminate use of mineral fertilizers in papaya orchards has increased production costs, and the use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi is a promising alternative to reduce such expenses. Therefore, the present research aimed at studying the efficiency of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on dry matter and nutrient accumulation in Sunrise Solo papaya seedlings, by applying doses of P2O5 (triple superphosphate) that are harmful to the symbiosis. The experiment was carried out in a protected environment and was set up in a randomized block design with four replications, and consisted of four P2O5 doses (0, 672, 1386 and 2100 mg dm-3), three mycorrhizal fungi species (Gigaspora margarita, Entrophospora colombiana and Scutellospora heterogama) and the control treatment (mycorrhiza-free). Shoot and root dry matter as well as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium contents in leaf and root tissues were assessed. Mycorrhizal inoculation promoted a 30% increase in shoot dry matter in relation to the control treatment. Mycorrhizal fungi promoted increases in leaf and root nitrogen content up to 672 mg dm-3 P2O5. Inoculation of E. colombiana favored the highest gains in root and shoot dry matter. P2O5 fertilization increased foliar and root phosphorus content.

title: Quality of nectarines produced in the region of subtropical climate

description: ABSTRACT The fruits of nectarine trees usually have small, firm flesh, good aroma and flavor accented. Knowledge of available cultivars in relation to quality as well as its adaptation to local cultivation are extremely important as they allow the choice of materials with better market potential. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate the nectarine cultivars 'Josefina' and 'Rubro- Sol' grown under subtropical conditions in Viçosa-MG. The experiments were carried out at the Universidade Federal de Viçosa for three seasons and conducted in split plots within the randomized design. Thirty fruits of each cultivar were harvested and the characteristics fruit weight, longitudinal and transverse diameters, firmness, soluble solids, titratable acidity and ascorbic acid contents and carotenoids were evaluated. There were significant differences between the means of years of avaliation as to the firmness and levels of ascorbic acid and carotenoids. The cultivar 'Rubro-sol' stood out for greater firmness and 'Josefina' by higher soluble solids and lower titratable acidity, with the sweetest fruits.

title: Different propagules and auxin concentration on rooting of passionflower sandbank

description: ABSTRACT Passiflora mucronata Lam. is resistant to Fusarim oxysporum f. passifloraceae and therefore can be used as rootstock for the species Passiflora edulis Sims. f. flavicarpa. The rootstocks in this case can be vegetatively propagated through cuttings. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different types of cuttings and different concentrations of indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) on the adventitious rooting of P. mucronata. The experiments were arranged in a completely randomized design with four replications of 16 cuttings each. In Experiment 1, the treatments consisted of the different types of cuttings from mother plants grown in protected environment: shoot tips; two leaves and two nodes; one leaf and one node; leafless with two nodes; leafless with one node. In Experiment 2, the cuttings were taken from field plants and treated with the following IBA concentrations: 0; 1000 mg kg-1 (0.0036456 mol L-1); 1500 mg kg-1 (0.0054684 mol L-1) and 2000 mg kg-1 (0.0072912 mol L-1). The characteristics evaluated in the experiments 1 and 2 were: survival (1 and 2); budding (1 and 2); shoot number (2), shoot length (2), number of shoot leaves (2);shoot dry mass (2); callusing (1); rooting (1 and 2); root number (1 and 2), largest root length (1 and 2), root volume (1 and 2), and root dry mass (1 and 2). We found that, instead the shoot tips, the cuttings of the type leafless with two nodes are the best for P. mucronata rooting. Neither the cuttings from greenhouse plants nor the cuttings from field plants require growth regulators for rooting of P. mucronata cuttings of the type leafless with two nodes.

title: Residual nitrogen fertilization effect of common bean production on succeeding corn intercropped with Congo grass

description: ABSTRACT Crop production in conservation systems involving intercropped cultivations mainly with corn have been proposed as a technology to promote sustainability in the Brazilian Cerrado areas. The objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of residual nitrogen fertilization applied in common bean on subsequent corn sole or intercropped with Congo grass (Urochloa ruziziensis) in no-tillage system. The experiment was carried out in randomized blocks with three replicates in a split-plot design. The treatments were composed by two cropping systems (sole and intercropped with Congo grass), and the sub-plots were five doses of nitrogen (0; 40; 80; 120 and 160 kg of N ha-1), applied in topdressing on common-bean (previous crop). There was no effect of cropping systems and residual amount of nitrogen application in the vegetative and reproductive development of corn. Corn intercropped with Congo grass leaded an adequate formation of crop residue and total land covering target at sustainability of no-tillage system.

title: Dynamics of water table level and groundwater salinity at an irrigated field

description: ABSTRACT Physical and hydro chemical analysis were carried out in shallow wells with the objective of identifying the impact of irrigation and of the climatic seasonality in the process of salinization and in dynamic of the groundwater level of the Distrito Irrigado do Baixo Acaraú - DIBAU, Ceará. The samples were taken in two periods: Dec/2003 to May/2007 and Aug/2010 to July/2011 in five shallow wells (P1, P2, P3, P4, P5), three being inserted into irrigated fields. In identifying the similarities or dissimilarities of the sodium (Na+), chlorine (Cl-) and nitrate (NO3 -) ions between the two studied time periods and between the sampled wells, statistical multivariate analysis of hierarchical cluster analysis was applied. The average data were submitted to the average test and confronted through the t-test. The waters of the unirrigated fields presented the highest average concentrations of Na+ and Cl-, 123 mg L-1 and 253.2 mg L-1, respectively, while the highest average values of NO3 - (16 mg L-1) were found in the irrigated area. An elevation of the level of the water table was identified in the wells inserted in the irrigated area (P3, P4 and P5) of 6.13; 5.25 and 3.40 m, respectively. The smallest seasonal fluctuations of the water table occurred in the irrigated area wells, showing an excess of irrigation water, which upper the groundwater level during the dry season. The concentrations of Na+ and Cl- in the groundwaters are determined by natural factors, differently from the NO3.

title: Agronomic performance of transgenic and isogenic corn hybrids in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul1

description: ABSTRACT Theoretically, isogenic hybrids should not present any differences in their genetic makeup due to recombinant DNA technology. However, these materials may behave differently in relation to adaptability and stability. This study aimed at evaluating the agronomic performance of transgenic corn and their isogenic hybrids in two locations in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Three isogenic simple hybrids and two transgenic varieties of each hybrid were evaluated. The first and second corn crop of 2013/14 were simultaneously analyzed in Dourados and Caarapó, two locations in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, totaling four environments x season conditions that were evaluated.. A randomized complete block design with three replicates per location was used, and the treatments were arranged in a 3 × 3 factorial design (three genetically modified and three conventional hybrids), with three replicates per site. Characteristics such as plant height, ear height, male flowers, female flowers, and grain yield were evaluated. The parameters adaptability and stability were estimated using the Eberhart and Russell model. In all environments, transgenic hybrids showed higher average grain yield. Considering the environments, AG 7000, a conventional isogenic hybrid, obtained the highest average grain yield. The most stable and productive hybrids were DKB 390 VT PRO and AG 7000 YG, both transgenic. All assessed hybrids exhibited greater average plant height, ear height, and grain yield in Caarapó during the second corn crop, demonstrating that the environment at that site and time was more favorable.

title: Physico-chemical variability of cassava flour in the Território da Cidadania do Vale do Juruá, Acre

description: ABSTRACT The flour is a processed cassava food of great dietary importance, but with little standardization due to the craft manufacturing process. The aim of this study was to analyze the variability of artisanal cassava flour produced in Território da Cidadania do Vale do Juruá, Acre, and group the producing municipalities according to physico-chemical characteristics using multivariate analysis todetermine their influence on the flour quality. A total of 138 flour samples were collected in the cities of Cruzeiro do Sul, Mâncio Lima, Rodrigues Alves, Porto Walter and Marechal Thaumaturgo. Moisture, ash, total protein, ether extract, total fiber, total carbohydrate, energy value, titratable acidity, pH and water activity were determined in the samples. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and means compared with the Tukey test. and multivariate statistics in a complementary way, hierarchical cluster analysis with Euclidean distance and Ward method, and non-hierarchical, k-means, principal components analysis with correlation matrix, and backward stepwise discriminant analysis. The results showed that the flours met the quality standards required by the legislation. The different multivariate analyzes were consistent, indicating that the physico-chemical properties of the flours have a pattern of distribution, which suggests standards in the manufacturing process distributed according to the location of the municipalities analyzed. The most influencing characteristics for flour discrimination are acidity, pH, water activity and moisture, indicating that the mode of production has great influence on the quality of the flour produced.

title: Co-inoculation of Rhizobium tropici and Azospirillum brasilense in common beans grown under two irrigation depths

description: ABSTRACT The alternative technique of co-inoculation or mixed inoculation with symbiotic and non-symbiotic bacteria has been studied in leguminous plants. However, there are few field studies with common beans and under the influence of the amount of irrigated water. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of inoculation and co-inoculation of common beans with Rhizobium tropici and Azospirillum brasilense under two irrigation depths. The experiment was carried out in the winter of 2012 and 2013, in Selvíria, state of Mato Grosso do Sul. The experimental design was composed of randomized blocks in split-plot scheme with two irrigation depths in the plots (recommended for common beans and 75% of the recommended) and five forms of nitrogen (N) supply in the split-plots (control non-inoculated with 40 kg ha- 1 of N in topdressing, 80 kg ha- 1 of N in topdressing, A. brasilense inoculation with 40 kg ha-1 of N in topdressing, R. tropici inoculation with 40 kg ha-1 of N in topdressing, and co-inoculation of A. brasilense and R. tropici with 40 kg ha- 1 of N in topdressing) with four repetitions. Co-inoculation increased nodulation in the second year of cultivation. None of the evaluated treatments increased the grain yield in relation to non-inoculated control with 40 kg ha-1 of nitrogen in topdressing, which presented average yield of 2,200 kg ha-1. The use of 75% of the recommended irrigation depth provides similar grain yield to the recommended irrigation depth in common beans cropped in winter.

title: Seed inoculation with Azospirillum brasilense and N fertilization of corn in the Cerrado biome

description: ABSTRACT There is a great interest to reduce doses and increase efficiency of inputs in agriculture. One alternative to lower doses of N fertilizers in corn is seed inoculation with diazotrophic bacteria, which can fix atmospheric N in soil. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of N doses-in the absence and presence of Azospirillum brasilense-on plant nutritional status at different growth stages and on seed yield of corn. The experiment was conducted during the 2011/2012 production season on a typical cerrado soil in Uberlândia, Triângulo Mineiro. The experimental design was randomized blocks with six repetitions. The treatments consisted of five N doses and the absence or presence of Azospirillum brasilense (100 mL ha-1) as a seed inoculant. A commercial product with minimum concentration of 2x108 CFU mL-1 100 mL ha-1 was used. Inoculation with Azospirillum brasilense did not significantly affect corn macronutrient content and yield, except for foliar calcium and potassium at 200 kg N ha-1 at the V8 stage. Corn yield increased with N doses up to 150 kg N ha-1.
