RESUMO Em áreas semiáridas, a escassez de água de baixa concentração de sais associado à irregularidade de precipitações, tornam-se um fator limitante para garantir a produção agrícola. Neste contexto, objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar o crescimento e a produção de genótipos de gergelim sob diferentes estratégias de uso de águas salinas. O experimento foi desenvolvido sob condições de ambiente protegido, utilizando-se o delineamento de blocos casualizados em esquema fatorial 6 x 2, sendo os tratamentos constituídos de seis estratégias de uso de águas salinas aplicadas nos diferentes estádios de desenvolvimento das plantas (SE - irrigação com água de baixa salinidade durante todo ciclo de cultivo; VE, FL, FR, VE/FL e VE/FR - irrigação com água de alta salinidade, respectivamente na fase vegetativa, floração, frutificação, vegetativa/floração e vegetativa/frutificação) e dois genótipos de gergelim (BRS Seda e BRS Anahí), com 4 repetições. A irrigação com água de elevada salinidade (CEa=2,7 dS m-1) durante as fases vegetativa, floração e de frutificação, não comprometeu a produção do gergelim. Houve redução do crescimento quando a irrigação com água de elevada salinidade foi realizada na fase de floração e de forma contínua nas fases vegetativa/floração e na produção durante as fases vegetativa/floração e vegetativa/frutificação. O maior crescimento nas plantas de gergelim BRS Seda resultou em incremento no número total de frutos e na massa de sementes total. | ABSTRACT In semiarid areas, the scarcity of water with low salt concentration associated with irregular precipitation becomes a limiting factor to ensure agricultural production. In this context, the objective of this study was to evaluate the growth and production of sesame genotypes under different strategies of use of saline water. The experiment was conducted under protected environment conditions, using a randomized block design in a 6 x 2 factorial scheme, and the treatments consisted of six strategies for the use of saline water in the different stages of plant development (SE = irrigation with low-salinity water throughout the cultivation cycle; VE, FL, FR, VE/FL and VE/FR - respectively, irrigation with high-salinity water at the vegetative stage, flowering, fruiting, vegetative/flowering and vegetative/fruiting) and two sesame genotypes (BRS Seda and BRS Anahí), with 4 replicates. Irrigation with high-salinity water (ECw = 2.7 dS m-1) during the vegetative, flowering and fruiting stages did not compromise sesame production. There were reductions in sesame growth when irrigation with high-salinity water was continuously applied at the vegetative/flowering stages and in sesame production when it was applied during the vegetative/flowering and vegetative/fruiting stages. The greater growth of BRS Seda sesame plants resulted in an increase in the total number of fruits and in the total seed weight.

ABSTRACT In arid and semi-arid regions, the quality of irrigation water varies in geographic terms and during the year, and the occurrence of water with high concentrations of salts is common. In this context, this study aimed to evaluate the emergence, growth and production of sesame, cultivar CNPA G3, irrigated with saline water and fertilized with N of different carrier proportions by the ratio of nitrate and ammonium ( NO --N and NH +-N) in an experiment conducted in lysimeters arranged in a greenhouse in the municipality of Campina Grande-PB, Brazil. The treatments were distributed into randomized blocks using a 5 × 5 factorial scheme relative to levels of irrigation water salinity (ECw; 0.6, 1.2, 1.8, 2.4 and 3.0 dS m-1) and five proportions of NO3 -N/NH4 -N (200/0; 150/50; 100/100; 50/150 and 0/200 mg of N kg-1), with three replicates. The increase in ECw compromised the emergence, growth and production of sesame, cultivar CNPA G3, and the production components were the most sensitive variables. The highest growth in diameter was obtained with the proportion of 200/0 mg kg -1 of NO3 -N/NH4 -N. An ECw level of 3.0 dS m and fertilization with 0/200 mg kg of NO3 -N/NH4 -N promoted deleterious effects on the total mass of sesame fruits and mass of seeds. The interaction between water salinity levels and NO3-/NH4 proportions significantly affected the number of leaves (at 50 and 70 days after sowing), the total mass of fruits and the mass of seeds. | RESUMO Nas regiões áridas e semiáridas a qualidade da água usada na irrigação varia em termos geográficos e ao longo do ano, sendo comum a ocorrência de águas com elevada concentração de sais. Neste contexto, objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar a emergência, crescimento e a produção do gergelim cv. CNPA G3 irrigado com águas salinas e adubado com proporções de N pela relação nitrato e amônio (N-NO - e N-NH +) em ensaio conduzido em lisímetros dispostos em casa de vegetação no município de Campina Grande, PB. Os tratamentos foram distribuídos em blocos ao acaso usando o esquema fatorial 5 x 5 relativos aos valores de condutividade elétrica da água de irrigação - CEa (0,6; 1,2; 1,8; 2,4 e 3,0 dS m-1) e cinco proporções de NO -N/NH4 N (200/0; 150/50; 100/100; 50/150; 0/200 mg de N kg ), com três repetições. O aumento da CEa comprometeu a emergência, o crescimento e a produção do gergelim cv CNPA G3, sendo os componentes de produção as variáveis mais sensíveis. O maior crescimento em diâmetro do caule foi obtido com proporção de 200/0 mg kg-1 de NO3 -N/NH4 -N. Nível de CEa de 3,0 dS m e adubação com 0/200 mg kg de NO3 -N/NH4 -N promoveram efeito deletério sobre a massa total de frutos e na massa de sementes do gergelim. A interação entre os níveis salinos das águas e as proporções de nitrato e amônio afetou significativamente o número de folhas (aos 50 e 70 dias após a semeadura), a massa total de frutos e a massa de sementes.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to evaluate the production of castor beans, cv. 'BRS Energia', in terms of soil chemical composition as a function of the cationic nature, and salinity levels, of the irrigation water. The experiment was carried out using lysimeters in a controlled environment at the Center of Technology and Natural Resources of the Federal University of Campina Grande, from November 2013 to February 2014. The treatments consisted of six types of salinity (S1 - Control; S2 - Na+; S3 - Ca2+; S4 - Na+ + Ca2+; S5 - K+, and S6 - Na+ + Ca2+ + Mg2+), distributed in randomized blocks with four replicates; each plot consisted of five plants for evaluation, totaling 120 experimental plots. Plants in the control treatment (S1) were irrigated with water with an electrical conductivity (ECw) of 0.6 dS m-1, and the other treatments (S2; S3; S4; S5 and S6) with ECw of 4.5 dS m-1, but with (a) different cation(s). Water salinity of 4.5 dS m-1 hampers castor bean production, regardless of the cationic nature of the water; castor bean 'BRS Energia' was more sensitive to salinity caused by the presence of potassium salts in the irrigation water; the mass of seeds in the primary raceme is the most sensitive variable to salinity and the cationic nature of the irrigation water; the adopted leaching fraction (0.10) was not sufficient to avoid salt accumulation in the soil; irrigation with low ECw promoted the lowest value of exchangeable sodium percentage. | RESUMO: Objetivou-se, com o presente trabalho, avaliar a produção da mamoneira cv. BRS Energia e os atributos químicos do solo em função da natureza catiônica e nível salino das águas de irrigação. O experimento foi desenvolvido em lisímetros em ambiente telado no Centro de Tecnologia e Recursos Naturais da Universidade Federal de Campina Grande, entre novembro de 2013 e fevereiro de 2014. Estudaram-se seis tipos de salinidade da água (S1 -Testemunha; S2 - Na+; S3 - Ca2+; S4 - Na++ Ca2+; S5 - K+ e S6 - Na++Ca2++Mg2+), distribuídos em delineamento de blocos ao acaso com quatro repetições, sendo a parcela constituída de cinco plantas úteis, totalizando 120 parcelas experimentais. Salienta-se que as plantas do tratamento testemunha (S1) foram irrigadas com água de condutividade elétrica (CEa) de 0,6 dS m-1, e os demais tratamentos (S2; S3;S4; S5 e S6) com CEa de 4,5 dS m-1, porém com diferente (s) cátion (s). A salinidade da água ao nível de 4,5 dS m-1 prejudica a produção da mamoneira, independente da natureza catiônica das águas; a mamoneira BRS Energia foi mais sensível à salinidade provocada pela presença de sais de potássio na água de irrigação; a massa de sementes do racemo primário é a variável mais sensível à salinidade e a natureza catiônica da água; e a fração de lixiviação adotada (0,10) não foi suficiente para evitar o acúmulo de sais no solo; a irrigação com água de baixa condutividade elétrica proporcionou o menor valor para a percentagem de sódio trocável.

ABSTRACT Groundwater with high salt concentrations is common in the semiarid region of Brazil. It often makes them inappropriate to conventional agricultural production of vegetables. Therefore, the objective of this work was to evaluate watercress and Chinese cabbage crops under a nutrient film technique (NFT) hydroponic system using brackish groundwater. The experiment was carried out in the Poço do Boi region, in Ibimirim, Pernambuco, Brazil (8º32'15"S, 37º41'30"W, and altitude of 431 m). The treatments used were: public water (T1), calcium sulfate water (T2), magnesium chloride water S1 (T3), calcium chloride water (T4), sodium chloride water (T5), and magnesium chloride water S2 (T6). A completely randomized experimental design was used, with six treatments and four replications, totaling 24 plots for each crop. The fresh and dry shoot weights and rates of relative and absolute growths were analyzed. The different waters used affected negatively the growth and yield of the watercress and Chinese cabbage plants. The calcium chloride water was the most suitable for the watercress production. However, none of the groundwaters used could be recommended for production of Chinese cabbage. The lowest growth rates (5.88% to watercress and 0.75% to Chinese cabbage) of the fresh matter were found with the use of magnesium water. | RESUMO Em grande parte do semiárido é comum à presença de águas subterrâneas que apresentam concentrações de sais, tais que, muitas vezes, as tornam inapropriadas à produção agrícola de hortaliças de maneira convencional. Assim, objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar o comportamento das culturas do agrião e da couve chinesa em hidroponia NFT (Nutrient Film Technique), submetidas à utilização de águas salobras subterrâneas. O experimento foi realizado no município Poço do Boi em Ibimirim-PE (8º32'15" de latitude Sul, 37º41'30" de longitude Oeste, e a uma altitude 431 m. Os tratamentos foram designados como: T1 - água de abastecimento; T2 - água sulfatada cálcica; T3 - água cloretada magnesiana S1; T4 - água cloretada cálcica; T5 - água cloretada sódica e T6 - água cloretada magnesiana S2. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualizados, com seis tratamentos e quatro repetições, totalizando 24 parcelas experimentais para cada cultura. Avaliou-se as produções de massa de matéria fresca e seca da parte aérea, taxas de crescimento relativo e absoluto. O uso das diferentes águas influenciou de maneira negativa no crescimento e rendimento da cultura do agrião e da couve chinesa, sendo a água cloretada cálcica a mais indicada para a produção do agrião. Já para a couve chinesa nenhuma das águas utilizadas é aconselhada para produção. As menores taxas de crescimento (5,88 % para o agrião e 0,75 % pra o couve) da massa de matéria fresca foram obtidas com o uso da água cloretada magnesiana S2.

ABSTRACT Intensification of the eutrophication process in surface water leads to an increase in the intensity and frequency of cyanobacterial blooms, compromising the availability of drinking water. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the spatio-temporal dynamics of cyanobacteria and identify the most important nutrients for such dynamics in a semiarid artificial lake, the Orós reservoir, in north-eastern Brazil. Seventy-seven water samples were collected in 11 campaigns (six during the dry season and five during the rainy season) from seven points. The attributes under investigation were the Secchi transparency, turbidity, pH, apparent colour, electrical conductivity, total solids, total phosphorus, soluble orthophosphate content, total Kjeldahl nitrogen, ammonia content, nitrate content, and cyanobacteria dynamics, resulting in a total of 924 samples (number of campaigns × number of points × number of attributes). Principal component analysis and cluster analysis were used to investigate the significance and determinant attributes of the spatio-temporal dynamics of cyanobacteria. Of the 17 species of cyanobacteria identified, 10 accounted for 72.47% of the total accumulated variance. During the rainy season, four homogeneous groups of cyanobacteria formed, whereas during the dry season, only three groups formed. The greatest concentrations occurred during the dry season, notably for Aphanocapsa spp., Cylindrospermopsis sp., and Geitlerinema sp., which are potentially toxic and show a greater affinity to the physical attributes of water. Climate seasonality was decisive in the spatio-temporal dynamics of cyanobacteria, and high transparency values limited excessive proliferation of the dominant species.
