title: Vigor test of (strong) normal intact Amburana cearensis (Allemão) A.C. Smith seedlings

description: Abstract: The aim of this study was to adapt the vigor test methodology of (strong) normal intact seedlings of Amburana cearensis and evaluate efficiency in physiological classification of seed lots. The study was conducted in two stages: morphological characterization of seedlings and physiological analysis of seed lots. To do so, the following tests were carried out: (strong) normal seedlings, germination, emergence, first count, germination speed index, tetrazolium, length of strong normal seedlings, length and dry mass of seedlings. The experimental design was completely randomized. The Tukey and Kruskal-Wallis tests were used to compare the results, and the correlation between the variables was analyzed by Spearman and Pearson coefficients. The seedlings of A. cearensis are semi-hypogeal phanerocotylar, with development of normal seedlings on the ninth day after sowing. The vigor test of strong normal seedlings, length of strong normal seedlings, dry matter, and tetrazolium led to physiological classification into different vigor levels. The vigor test of (strong) normal seedlings, the length of strong normal seedlings, and tetrazolium (vigor) were effective for vigor classification of A. cearensis seeds.

title: Digital image processing of coated perennial-soybean seeds and correlation with physiological atributes

description: Abstract: Perennial soybean (Neonotonia wightii) is a Fabaceae with potential to be used in consortium with Poaceae plants to improve pasture quality. In order to add value to perennial soybean seeds and improve their seed distribution, seeds coated with different materials in coating machine were characterized by digital image analysis and physical attributes related to physiological attributes in order to define the ideal amount and material to be used in the coating. Different material quantities were tested, 150 g, 200 g and 250 g, divided into layers, namely: sand, calcium silicate + sand and limestone + sand. Coating promoted maximum increments of approximately 350% in seed mass and significant increases of up to 230% in area, 154% in maximum diameter, 162% in minimum diameter, 167% in contained diameter and 152% in perimeter. The coating was also efficient in reducing the moisture of the pellets by increasing the layers that cover the seeds. The sand + limestone combination resulted in the largest pellets. The combination of sand + silicate did not interfere with plant speed and formation. Thus, it was considered the appropriate material for the coating of perennial soybean seeds.

title: Multivariate analysis of phenotypic diversity in Santa Ines sheep

description: SUMMARY This study aimed at evaluating the phenotypic diversity of Saint Ines sheep strains. Twelve body measurements were carried out in 502 adult females, descendants from 34 reproducers belonging 15 strains of Santa Ines breed, registered at association of creators: anterior height, posterior height, legs height, chest height, thoracic circumference, shin circumference, body length, neck length, ear length, face length , chamer length and face width. The data were submitted to the canonic variable analysis and cluster analysis by means of the method Unweighted Pair-Group Method Using Arithmetic Averages. The first three canonical variables explained 81.01% of the total variation. Strains 1, 10 and 11 were the most homogeneous, whereas strains 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 presented large intra-population variability. Strains 11 and 15 presented the longer distance (Mahalanobis). The cluster analysis showed the formation of three groups. The five body measurements with higher relative importance (thoracic circumference, shin circumference, face length, neck length, and chamfer length), jointly considered, accounted for 76.89% of the phenotypic diversity between the lineages. The strains of Santa Ines sheep present high phenotypic diversity, and the characteristics related to production and racial characterization are similarly important in the differentiation between the strains.

title: Human Capital Management: comparison in the location of softwares of human capital management among the countries Brazil, Argentina and Mexico

description: ABSTRACT The area of staff administration has initiated inside of the organizations a process that today is the great focus of investments in the search of market competitiveness so tough in times of strong globalization, the human capital management. For some time, the organizations have already realized that the differential to be competitive is not in what is produced but in the people who make this process a reality. As the age of the knowledge is currently lived, software of human capital management came to improve the management of these human resources, enabling a more agile dissemination process. As much as the fast expansion of software, the companies have extended to several regions of the planet, which generates the demand of having appropriate software to the local conventions, whether localized it or not. Software localization is an area of recent studies, but has investments research centers by multinational. As general objective of this research, it was sought the comparison of the main pertinent information from the area of personnel management between Brazil, Argentina and Mexico, for the localization of human capital management, so to form and to inspire other researchers to explore this subject in other areas of Administration. The research used the comparative method. As for the objectives it can be classified as descriptive and exploratory; as for the procedures it can be classified as bibliographic and documentary; and as for the approaching of the problem, it can be classified as quantitative and qualitative. Structured questionnaires were applied in companies of Argentina and Mexico, and the analysis of the results showed that it was possible to identify which are the areas of performance of higher adhesion in these countries, and mainly which is the information of greater and minor adhesion for the localization of Brazilian software. The use percentage of current software of human resources, as well as the presentation of the most indicated in the research software, complements the analysis of the results. Finally, it was concluded that is possible to bring to reality the integrated management of all organizational information among others countries, mainly with Argentina, Mexico and Brazil.

title: Physiological response of soybean seeds to spray volumes of industrial chemical treatment and storage in different environments

description: Abstract: The increase in spray volumes in industrial seed treatments may increase the deterioration and reduce the physiological potential of seeds, especially when stored in unfavorable environments. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of spray volumes obtained by the combination of different chemical products, via industrial treatment, on the physiological potential of soybean seeds during storage in different environments. A completely randomized experimental design was used in a 5 × 3 factorial arrangement, with four replications. The factors were five spray volumes (0, 600, 1200, 1800 and 2400 mL.100 kg-1 of seeds), obtained from the combination of different products in commercial use, and three storage periods (0, 60 and 120 days), evaluated separately in two environments (storage without climate control and cold storage). The following variables were evaluated: germination, first germination count, seedling emergence in sand, emergence speed index, seedling length (total, shoot, and root) and dry matter (shoot and root). The physiological potential of soybean seeds is reduced by increasing the spray volume used in the industrial treatment and by prolonging the storage period. However, this effect is mitigated by the controlled conditions of cold storage.

title: Landscape Geotechnology and Ecology in Monitoring Forest Fragmentation

description: ABSTRACT This work aimed to diagnose and analyze the structural connectivity of fragmented landscape surrounding the Conservation Unit Private Reservation of Natural Patrimony Cafundó, proposing the restoration through Ecological Corridors. The mapping of land use and land cover, and landscape ecology indexes allowed detecting, analyzing and understanding the landscape structure. These indexes were calculated using the GeoDMA plugin for the 10 mapped classes. During the study period (1970 and 2007) there have been few changes in the land use and occupation, predominantly to pasture matrix on both dates. The delimitation of Ecological Corridor for the Analytical Hierarchy Process method used each mapped class to set the relative weight for installation. The results showed an increase in the landscape fragmentation allowing the definition of an Ecological Corridor of lower cost as an alternative to increase the connectivity among conservation units.

title: Catolicismo em disputa: a comunidade agudá e a geopolítica colonial (Uidá 1844-1866)

description: ABSTRACT This paper examines the occupation and subsequent expulsion of the priests of the Societé des Missions Africaines de Lyon from the Portuguese fortress of Ouidah, West Africa, in the 1860s. Competition between the French and Portuguese Catholic missionary projects shrouded national colonial interests, but also an old ecclesiastical dispute between the Portuguese Padroado and the Roman papacy. The contextualization in the long duration of this event seeks to understand how the local Aguda community -including Portuguese, Brazilians, and freed Africans returned from Bahia- reacted to such international geopolitics. The data suggest variable alignments of the Aguda, not exempt from an apparent racial tension marked by the stigma of slavery.

title: Physiological performance of Garcinia gardneriana (Planch. & Triana) Zappi: a species with recalcitrant and dormant seeds

description: Abstract: Garcinia gardneriana (Planch. & Triana) Zappi is a native species widely distributed in Brazil. It has ornamental features, edible fruits, and its leaves have medicinal properties; however, its potential has not been explored. The aim of this study was to evaluate seed physiological performance due to dormancy, desiccation and storage tolerance. Only decoated seeds germinated. Seeds had an initial water content of 1.07 g H2O.g-1 dw and final germination of 95%. Both desiccation to 0.67 g H2O.g-1 dw and storage at 25 ºC for ninety days resulted in decreased germination, 43 and 41%, respectively. Desiccation below 0.25 g H2O.g-1 dw and storage for ninety days at 5 ºC were lethal. A rapid decrease in enzymic protection by superoxide dismutase and ascorbate peroxidase was correlated to desiccation sensitivity. Total polyamines content was higher in fresh seeds and markedly decreased with desiccation. The decrease in enzyme activity and polyamines content seems to be associated with seed viability loss. In sum, G. gardneriana seeds have a low tolerance to desiccation and are sensitive to chilling. Therefore, the seeds can be categorized as recalcitrant and dormant, a rare combination in terms of seed biology.

title: Signs of a chronic problem: need for water governance to promote basin committees, coordinate plans and manage Information

description: Abstract The current water governance in Brazil contributes to the increase of water scarcity problems in the São Francisco basin, contributing to conflicts over water use. This paper assesses the challenges and barriers of water governance in the São Francisco river basin based on a robust collection and analysis of data from various repositories and institutions at the national, state, river basin and municipal levels. The methodology includes an analysis of institutional interaction by examining the coordination of water resources plans, a review of the implementation of basin tributary committees and the quantity and quality available data related to water management. Most tributaries’ river plans were developed by the government; therefore, many of the plans analyzed conflicted with other regional plans due to a lack of coordination of proposed actions. In addition, the semiarid region has implemented few tributary river committees and the basin as a whole lacks an appropriate mechanism for generating, updating and sharing comprehensive information relevant to water management. It is therefore imperative to improve coordination between plans using integrated assessment and decision-making tools, and to reinforce public participation through tributary committees. Further, a collaborative data platform should be adopted, from which it will be possible share information generated in different sectors of society.
