title: Production components of sunflower plants irrigated with treated domestic wastewater and drinking water in semiarid region

description: ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate production components of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) plants irrigated with domestic wastewaters treated by different processes, with two irrigation depths. The experiment was carried out in Ibimirim, state of Pernambuco, Brazil, using a randomized block design in a 4×2 factorial arrangement, with four replications. The treatments consisted of four irrigation water types (domestic wastewater treated by UASB reactor - DW1; domestic wastewater treated by digestion decanter and anaerobic filtration - DW2; domestic wastewater treated by anaerobic filtration - DW3; and public water - PW4) and two irrigation depths (equal to the crop evapotranspiration - ID1; and 20% higher than the crop evapotranspiration - ID2). The production components-plant fresh and dry weights, 1000-achene weight, capitulum internal diameter, achene yield, oil content, and oil yield-were evaluated at the end of the crop cycle. The irrigation with treated domestic wastewater improved all variables analyzed when compared to the drinking water, especially when using DW2 and DW3 with ID1.

title: Reaction rate and residual effect of rice husk ash in soil acidity parameters

description: ABSTRACT The rice husk ash has been applied in agricultural land, with potential of replace limestone and, supply phosphorus and potassium. However, its residual effect in soil is still unknown. This investigation aimed to evaluate the reaction rate and residual effect of rice husk ash in soils acidity parameters. A field experiment was conducted with five treatments: four rice husk ash dosages 0, 30, 60 and 120 t ha-1 and one treatment with recommended soil lime and fertilizer (dolomitic limestone to reach pH 6, 150 kg ha-1 P2O5 as single superphosphate and 80 kg ha-1 K2O as potassium chloride) where five soil samples. Soil samples were collected in the layers 0.00 - 0.10 m and 0.10 - 0.20 m at 15, 211, 400, 517 and 804 days after ash incorporation. Chemical attributes were determined: soil pH (pH), soil base, exchangeable cation values (Ca, Mg, K and Na) and cation exchange capacity (CEC) at pH 7. Results showed that reaction rate of rice husk ash is faster when compared to liming. As greater was rice husk ash dosage applied in soil, higher is the residual effect in pH. As corrective of soil acidity, the residual effect of rice husk ash is just the required time to occur the natural process of reacidification and leaching of basic cations, about 33 months for soils and weather conditions similar to this work.

title: Dolomitic limestone as an alkalizing agent for treating cassava starch wastewater in an anaerobic reactor

description: ABSTRACT Cassava processing wastewater has a low Volatile Acidity/Total Alkalinity ratio, low buffering capacity and became quickly acidified. In this trial, dolomitic limestone was used as an alkalizing agent in an anaerobic reactor to treat cassava starch wastewater. The dolomitic limestone contained 27% CaO and 23% MgO and granulometry between 24.5 and 38.1 mm. The average Chemical Oxygen Demand of the wastewater was 13331.30 mgO2 L-1, the organic loading rates (OLR) ranged from 1.23 to 16.43 gCOD L-1 d-1 and the hydraulic retention times ranged from 10.00 to 0.80 days. The results showed that the calcium concentrations increased in the reactor effluent and the magnesium concentrations decreased as the organic loading rates increased. Ca2+ and Mg2+ concentrations were approximately 5,000 and 5.05 times greater in the sludge than in the inoculum, respectively. The average pH, Total alcalinity, Volatile Acidity and Volatile Acidity/ Total alcalinity values were 6.69, 882.54 mgCaCO3 L-1, 221.55 mgCH3COOH L-1 and 0.22, respectively. The loss of limestone mass corresponded to only 2.51% of the initial mass, after 134 days of anaerobic reactor operation. Finally, it was concluded that the limestone effectively controlled acidification through the alkalinity increased in the system.

title: Yield and grape must quality of the IAC 138-22 ‘Máximo’ submitted to canopy management

description: ABSTRACT Grape cultivar IAC 138-22 'Máximo' grafted on IAC 766 ‘Campinas’ and IAC 572 ‘Jales’ rootstocks and trained in upright trellis was evaluated during consecutive summer and winter growing seasons for comparison different canopy management: a) branch thinning: comparison between one branch and two branches per spur and b) branch tipping: comparison between low and high upright trellis. The results obtained of the phytotechnical and physicochemical grape must characteristics allowed to confirm that there was no significant difference between rootstocks regarding branch thinning intensity and upright trellis height. The largest effect observed in canopy management was for yield values promoted by branch thinning. No effect was observed in the grape must physicochemical characteristics when the different treatments were compared in the same growing season. Regarding to the upright trellis height, larger values of soluble solids were obtained for the high trellis than in the low trellis. Winter growing season resulted in lower values of yield and greater values of total soluble solids and titratable acidity than in the summer growing season.

title: Tree community dynamics of a northern Minas Gerais seasonally dry forest

description: ABSTRACT This study aimed to characterize the dynamics, structural changes and floristics of a Northern Minas Gerais Seasonally Deciduous Forest tree community, in a 5 year interval. In 2005, 10 (20 x 20m) plots were allocated. All trees (CBH ≥ 10 cm) were tagged and measured. A second census was carried out in 2010 in order to measure surviving, new recruits and dead trees. In 2005, 46 species were recorded, moving to 45 in 2010. No significant differences were found for Shannon - diversity (H’ = 2.62 nats ind-1 in 2005; H’ = 2.60 nats ind-1 in 2010) and Pielou eveness (J = 0.683 in 2005; J = 0.682 in 2010) in the interval. A total of 57 dead records (rate of 1.64% year-1) were found whereas 18 trees were recruited (rate of 0.53% year-1). Despite the higher mortality as compared to recruitment, the results suggest that the community remained stable in both structural and diversity terms in the interval considered.

title: Fertilization with potassium and calcium in nutrition and production of guava 'Paluma'

description: ABSTRACT The guava is a fruit cultivated worldwide, distinguished by the great acceptance in the consumer market. However, so that the crop exploits its maximum productive potential and maintains the quality of the fruits it is necessary an adequate mineral fertilization to raise the availability of nutrients in the soil and to increase the absorption by plants. The objective of the work was to evaluate the effects of fertilization with potassium doses, in the presence and absence of calcium, on the nutritional status and on the production of 'Paluma' guava. The experiment was carried out from August 2015 to May 2016, in the municipality of Remígio-PB, Brazil. The variables analyzed were: macro and micronutrient leaf contents, number of fruits per plant, average fruit mass, fruit yield per plant and productivity. Guava plants were adequately supplied with nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, boron, iron and manganese, and deficient in sulfur, copper and zinc. Calcium fertilization increased the leaf content of P, K, Ca, S, B, Mn and Zn, but reduced the number of fruits per plant and the yield of 'Paluma' guava. Potassium fertilization without calcium addition at doses between 101 and 143 g plant-1 year-1 K2O at 16 months of age provides the highest productivity of 'Paluma' guava.

title: Statistical modeling for the monthly estimate of chilling hours and units in Plateau regions of Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina

description: ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to obtain and evaluate models for the monthly estimation of chilling hours/units based on air temperature data in the Plateau regions of Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina. Data of air temperature were used from May to August 2012 to 2017 of seven meteorological stations. For each month the chilling hours/unit were calculated by the Utah method and the sum of temperatures lower or equal to 7.2 °C that were correlated with the minimum and average monthly temperature with the use of the Regression Analysis. Six statistical methods were used to evaluate the monthly estimate of chilling hours/units obtained by previously obtained models. The minimum temperature and the monthly average explained between 65% and 96% of the chilling hours by the temperature threshold ≤ 7.2 °C and the chilling units by the Utah method. The minimum temperature and the monthly air average are recommended for the estimation of chilling hours and chilling units, respectively. The climatic variability of the winter in the study region results in different performances of the models of estimates of chilling hours/unit.

title: Effect of Glyphosate in vitro culture of Cattleya nobilior Rchb. F

description: ABSTRACT Among the techniques used by biotechnology for multiplication of orchid seedlings, the in vitro cultivation stands out due to the high production potential of new seedlings. The presence of some chemical substances used in the culture medium, depending on the concentration, may or may not favor the growth and development of the plant. Therefore, the objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of glyphosate on the in vitro cultivation of the orchid Cattleya nobilior Rchb. F. The experimental design was completely randomized, with six treatments and ten replications. The treatments consisted of six concentrations of glyphosate (0.0, 8.5, 17.0, 25.5, 34.0, and 42.5 mg L-1 a.i.), added to the modified MS culture medium with half the concentrations of macronutrients. Seedlings subjected to different glyphosate concentrations were obtained from seeds germinated in vitro. The length and dry biomass measurements of the shoot and root, number of leaves, leaf length, leaf width, number of shoots, chlorophyll a, b, and carotenoid contents were performed 200 days after transplanting of the seedlings. Among the phytometric components analyzed, only the length and dry biomass of root and the carotenoid content decreased with increasing doses of the glyphosate herbicide. Low concentrations of glyphosate added to the culture medium result in hormese effect, with increased growth of Cattleya nobilior Rchb. F. shoot.

title: Growth and quality of Handroanthus serratifolius seedlings in soils incorporating amendments and inorganic residues

description: ABSTRACT Rock powder and boiler ash are residues with a high potential for the fertilization of substrates to produce forestry seedlings. They are the source of macro and micronutrients, besides having an effect on soil pH. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of the isolated application of rock power, boiler ash, dolomitic limestone and calcium carbonate on the reaction of soils with a sandy and clayey texture in the Cerrado Piauiense and on the growth and quality of ipê-amarelo seedlings. For this purpose, the pH values of soil in water and CaCl2 solution and the following morphophysiological parameters as indicators of the quality of forest seedlings were analyzed: length of the aerial part (LAP), and root (RL), stem diameter (SD), number of leaves (NL), total chlorophyll (TC), fresh mass of the aerial part (FMAP), fresh mass of the root (FMR), dry mass of the aerial part (DMAP), of the root (DMR) and total (TRM), and the DMAP/DMR and LAP/SD ratios and Dickson quality index (DQI). It was found that the rock powder and boiler ash residues change the pH values in clayey and sandy soils, and promote the growth and quality of ipê-amarelo seedlings.

title: Uso de biofertilizantes en el desarrollo vegetativo y productivo de plantas de camu-camu en Ucayali, Perú

description: RESUMEN Para aumentar la calidad y el rendimiento de frutos en plantaciones de camu-camu, actualmente se viene buscando alternativas de producción orgánica. En ese sentido, el presente trabajo tuvo por objetivo determinar el efecto de diferentes biofertilizantes en el desarrollo vegetativo y productivo de plantas de camu-camu. Para ello, fue conducido un experimento mediante un diseño de bloques completamente al azar (DBCA) en esquema factorial (5Bx5C), con cuatro repeticiones y una planta por unida experimental. El primer factor (B) estuvo constituido por 5 tipos de biofertilizantes: B1) vacaza (estiércol de vaca), B2) gallinaza (estiércol de gallina de postura), B3) guano de isla (estiércol de aves de mar), B4) pollinaza (estiércol de pollo) y B5) sedimentos de rio, y el segundo factor (C) por cinco concentraciones de biofertilizante: C1) 0, C2) 2, C3) 4, C4) 6 y C5) 8%. Después de 210 días, fue verificado que, el biofertilizante guano de isla estimuló mayor emisión de brotes nuevos (1773,73) y el biofertilizante vacaza presentó los mejores resultados de botones florales, número de frutos de cosecha y rendimiento de frutos (t ha-1) con 4611,67; 2926,85 y 28,8 en las dosis 6; 8 y 8%, respectivamente. Se concluye que, el biofertilizante vacaza (VA) incrementó la calidad y el rendimiento de frutos de camu-camu en suelos de restinga. Así también, el biofertilizante guano de isla (GI) fue el segundo en presentar los mejores resultados, sin embargo, el alto contenido de N retardó el desarrollo normal de las fases fenológicas.
