title: Environmental licensing of large-scale enterprises: what are the limits for evaluating direct and indirect impacts on health? A case study in the Wajãpi Indigenous Land, Amapá

description: Abstract In Brazil, it is mandatory to conduct environmental impact studies prior to deploying large-scale ventures. However, the normative criteria for demarcating areas of influence are considered imprecise and insufficient. The present article aims to demonstrate how serial environmental impacts caused by the implementation of hydroelectric power plants and industrial mining in the state of Amapá triggered outbreaks of malaria and American cutaneous leishmaniasis (ACL) in the Wajãpi Indigenous Land and other settlements in the region. Spatial analysis of deforestation, climate variation curves, and the chronology of events from 2003 to 2015 were used to verify the correlation of indirect health effects in communities wich were not included during the licensing stages for deploying these projects. The results showed that outbreaks of malaria and ACL were correlated with increased rates of deforestation caused by the expansion of rural settlements, but mainly by the establishment of two hydroelectric power plants, the growth in industrial iron mining, as well as the simultaneous increase of mining camps (garimpos) in the region. The results highlight the fragility of the environmental licensing process for demarcating indirectly influenced areas, particularly with regard to health issues.

title: The conceptual demand in the pedagogical practice of two chemistry teachers who teach Chemistry and Physics

description: Abstract: This article presents research on the levels of conceptual demand of the pedagogical practice of two teachers who teach Chemistry and Physics in secondary schools. These teachers were trained in Chemistry, but also teach Physics, a common practice in Brazilian public schools related to the shortage of Science teachers. Our research is based on Basil Bernstein's theory of pedagogical discourse and on the notion of conceptual demand proposed by Ana Maria Morais and collaborators. The research was carried out in two urban schools in Jequié, Bahia, Brazil, and involved participant observation in the classroom. For the data collection we used audio recorders, field notebooks and semi-structured interviews. Our results point out that the pedagogical practices of these teachers show a low conceptual demand in the two subjects they teach, being influenced by their teacher training and the social economic background of the students are factors that contribute to this feature.

title: Bud load management on table grape yield and quality – cv. Sugrathirteen (Midnight Beauty®)

description: ABSTRACT Viticulture is an activity of great economic and social importance in the Submedium region of the São Francisco River Valley, with emphasis on table grape and wine production. With the increasing expansion of the viticulture, a growing number of alternatives that do not affect fruit quality have been studied to maximize table grape yield, such as pruning and load adjustment. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of different bud loads on canopy management to enable the marketable and economic production of cv. Sugrathirteen (Midnight Beauty®) in the submedium region ofthe São Francisco River Valley. This study was carried out for two years (2014/2015) in an experimental area for the introduction of new cultivars patented by Prodomo Farm in the municipality of Petrolina, Pernambuco, Brazil. The experiment was conducted in a randomized block factorial 2 × 5 design, with two seasons and 5 treatments, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 buds short_textwhich correspond toshort_text 17, 23, 29, 34 and 40 buds·m–2 short_textrespectivelyshort_text, distributed in 4 plots, considering five plants per replicate. Our results show that pruning seasons significantly affected sprouting percentage. However, the difference in bud load influenced this variable, with higher values in the pruning at 14 buds in both seasons. According to the results, the selection of pruning system according to bud load and to genetic features of the cultivar, and their interaction with the environment, produced higher yields in pruning with 10 buds, without negatively affecting grape quality.

title: Bipedal and unipedal stance in Brazilian football 7-a-side athletes with cerebral palsy

description: ABSTRACT To compare postural control between Football 7-a-side players with cerebral palsy (CP) and active non-athletes without neurologic impairments, 28 individuals (15 to 35 years old) were selected and divided into the Non-Athletes Group (NAG), consisting of 14 individuals without neurologic or musculoskeletal injury; and the CP Group (CPG), composed of 14 athletes from the regional football team. A force platform was used to measure anteroposterior displacement of center of pressure (COPap), velocity (COPvel), mediolateral displacement (COPml), and 95% confidence ellipse area (AREA95) on bipedal and unipedal stance. On bipedal stance, there was no difference between groups in anteroposterior displacement of center of pressure (COPap) and velocity (COPvel). On unipedal stance with the dominant leg, the NAG presented better postural control, statistically significant in mediolateral displacement (COPml), 95% confidence ellipse area (AREA95) and COPap (p = 0.003; p = 0.001; p = 0.018, respectively). Our results showed that both groups have similar postural control on bipedal stance, but NAG demonstrated better postural control with unipedal stance than Football 7-a-side players with CP.

title: Paths of waters, paths of lands: trailing the Alagoas territory through the maps of the first colonial centuries

description: ABSTRACT During the colonial period, the lands called Alagoas initially belonged to the Captaincy of Pernambuco. However, traces of its geographical origins can be found in the first maps of Brazil. By examining the Portuguese cartography of the Albernaz family, and later, the dense Dutch material, we can see how the region has been mapped out. Firstly, geographical features, particularly rivers, were marked out; and later the villages, roads, and sugar-mills were identified in these maps. Prominent among the maps analyzed here is the Brasiliae Geographia et Hidrographica Tabula Nova..., which was ably produced by George Marcgraf, and is the most important 17th century cartographic document in the so-called Dutch Brazil period. In addition, there are landscapes by Frans Post which allow us to examine the first three villages founded in the region. Among the points that can be observed are the routes, which were initially watercourses and later became tracks across the lands. When we compare this old cartographic material with today’s maps we perceive that some of these roads - currently highways - follow almost exactly the same routes from nearly 400 years ago. The analysis of Alagoas State, which is characterized by its lagoon features, is completed with the analyses of its three initial villages, followed by the study of the capital, Maceió, based on the city’s oldest map that was produced in the 18th century in which the waterways and roads are also conspicuous.

title: The hybrid feature of inserted popular science texts into textbooks

description: Abstract: Popular Science texts used in Science teaching contextualize the school content and assist in scientific and technological literacy. Science and Biology textbooks insert these texts, selected to diversify their sources of information. This work analyzed 60 Popular Science texts in seven High School Biology textbooks; most of them suffered processes of discursive re-elaboration, especially of elimination, and alteration in the direction of the images. We showed that the inserted texts present a hybrid feature, presenting didactic and Popular Science elements, since the authors of the textbooks do not transform them into didactic texts. We concluded that it is essential that the teachers read these texts to identify the degree of impairment of the vision of nature of science occurs after insertion in the textbook and discuss this with the students in the classroom.

title: Procedure for detecting tobamovirus in tomato and pepper seeds decreases the cost analysis

description: ABSTRACT The transmission of tobamovirus by tomato and pepper seeds is an important mean of virus introduction in crops. Therefore, detecting its presence in the seed becomes essential for the preventive control of virus diseases. In this study, a method was proposed for the detection of Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV) in tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum) and Pepper mild mottle virus (PMMoV) in pepper (Capsicum annum) seeds. Seed lots with different levels of incidence were analyzed by biological, serological, and molecular methods. Using DAS-ELISA technique, it was possible to detect TMV up to the limit rate of 1:170 (1 contaminated seed: total seeds) and the ToMV up to 1:200 in tomato seeds; PMMoV in pepper seeds was detected up to 1:140. The IC-RT-PCR detected the TMV and ToMV up to the limit of 1:400 and PMMoV up to the limit of 1:300. The assembled lots containing only 1 contaminated seed in 1000 (1:1000) were combined into 30 sub lots for DAS-ELISA analysis and 10 sub lots for IC-RT-PCR analysis. Both techniques, DAS-ELISA and IC-RT-PCR, were efficient to detect the three viruses in all analyzed samples, but the detection of tobamoviruses with RT-PCR and biological tests was not reliable. Based on the results of this study, in which a combination of seeds in sub lots was made to reduce the number of tests performed, it is possible to make significant savings in the cost of the diagnostic methods routinely conducted in official laboratories, with high efficiency and reliability.

title: A new methodology for large-scale screening sugarcane resistance to Mahanarva Fimbriolata (Hemiptera: Cercopidae)

description: ABSTRACT The sugarcane spittlebug, Mahanarva fimbriolata (Walker) (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) is an economically important pest of sugarcane in Brazil. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a greenhouse methodology to screen large sugarcane populations for resistance to spittlebug Mahanarva fimbriolata. A resistant and a susceptible genotype (H. Kawandang and SP81-3250) were first used to determine adequate days after infestation and levels of infestation (number of nymphs per plant) for comparing the resistance of genotypes. Then, 74 sugarcane genotypes including three susceptible and three resistant controls were screened for resistance. The screening method consists in infesting single-tiller plants supported in a small plant growth unit and assessing the damage by using a 1-5 visual damage score. Our data suggest screening with four to six nymphs per plant and the damage score assessment at least 21 days after infestation. The screening technique was proved reliable as susceptible and resistant controls were placed in their respective resistance category. Three genotypes were classified as resistant while the majority of genotypes were classified as susceptible to spittlebug, indicating the need of breeding for resistance.

title: Estela Campos and early abstractionism in Pará (1957-1959): hypotheses on invisibilities in art history

description: Abstract This paper presents information on a gap in the historiographic studies of art in Belém, Brazil. It discusses the role of the artist Estela Campos in the consolidation of abstractionist currents in the artistic field of Belém, analyzing critical reception of her first three solo exhibitions (1957, 1958 and 1959, in the cities of Belém, Rio de Janeiro, and Belém, respectively). Sources that provide a biographical sketch of the artist are presented, many still unpublished or barely known. In the same way, some hypotheses are raised about aspects that may have contributed to her invisibility in the art history of Belém (sexism, provincialism, localist historiographical approaches).

title: Plant spatial arrangement affects grain production from branches and stem of soybean cultivars

description: ABSTRACT Phenotypic plasticity is the ability of plants to undergo changes in morphology and yield components to adapt themselves to distinct environmental conditions. The knowledge on the changes in yield components of branches and stems at varied plant spatial arrangements needs to be updated due to recent changes in soybean production system. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the yield components of branches and stems, as well as to assess the share of these plant parts in the total grain yield of soybean cultivars with indeterminate growth type, under different spatial arrangements. The experiment was conducted during the growing seasons of 2013/2014 and 2014/2015, under a randomized complete-block design and in a4 × 3 × 2 factorial scheme with three replications. Treatments consisted of four row spacing patterns (narrow rows, twin rows, traditional row spacing, and crossed rows), three seeding rates (150, 300, and 450 thousand viable seeds∙ha–1), and two cultivars (BMX Potência RR and BRS 359 RR). Narrow rows reduce pods and grains production in branches in relation to the traditional row spacing. The number of grains per pod of stem and of branches is not altered by the changes in plant arrangement. The increase in seeding rate reduces the number of pods per plant of branches in greater magnitude than that of stems. The rise in seeding rate results in larger thousand-grain mass both of branches and of stems, but varies with the growing season.
