Oliveira, A. C. C. | Souza, T. S. | Lima, M. O. | Gazal, V. S.
The Botanic Garden of the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRRJ) is located in the municipality of Seropédica-Rio de Janeiro and contribute to the conservation of the flora, especially on endangered Atlantic Forest species. The increase of green areas in the urban centers some botanical species can be used places of foraging and termite feeding. This study aimed to identify tree species in the Botanic Garden of UFRRJ and verify, under  field  conditions,  whether termite  species  exhibit  foraging preference.  For  this purpose, the area was randomly inspected so that the entire area was represented homogenously. During this course all the trees were inspected to verify the occurrence of termites. The termites were collected and preserved in alcohol 70% for later identification. As results of the investigation, we found the total of 225 surveyed trees, 24% (n = 54) were infested by termites, two native species of the Termitida family were identified: Microcerotermes  strunckii  (Söerensen,  1884)  and  Nasutitermes  jaraguae  (Holmgren,1910).  The most  frequent  species  was  M.  strunckii  (χ2  =  12.5;  g.l.  =  1;  p  <0.001), occurring in 63% of the infested trees and the N. jaraguae species running in 37% of the infested trees. In general, termites M. strunckii and N. jaraguae showed no significant preference for foraging between native and exotic tree species. However, the trees of the Botanical Garden are infested by native termites, where the term M. strunckii is predominant.

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of cinnamon powder (Cinnamomum verum) as a phytogenic additive on broiler diets. The treatments were applied in a single shed with 32º NO orientation, randomized complete block design (DBC), with subdivided plots scheme, with 4 treatments (T1 - 30% concentrate and 70% corn, T2 - 30% concentrate and 69,75% corn and 0.25% cinnamon powder, T3 - 30% concentrate and 68% corn and 0.5% cinnamon powder and T4 - 30% concentrate and 67% corn and 1, 0% cinnamon powder) and 3 times (0, 20, 47 days), for the production variables (male weight, female weight, feed leftovers). For the variables obtained at slaughter (weight of chickens without feathers and blood, carcass weight without viscera, weight of edible viscera, breast weight), the data were obtained from a completely randomized experiment (DIC), where they were arranged in subdivided plots arranged in blocks completely randomized with four repetitions. All statistical analyzes were performed with the R (Core Core, 2017) statistical computing environment. Identifying significant differences (p <0.05) between treatments, the LSD test was applied for multiple comparisons. The inclusion of cinnamon powder (Cinnamomum verum) as a phytogenic additive in the diet does not alter the performance of chicken poutry.

Moraes, E. R. | Ferreira, S. R. | Menezes, F. G. | Ferreira, K. N. | Cavalcante, T. R. M.
The mangabeira is one of the main fruit plants of the Brazilian savanna. In the Brazilian sacanna there is a great deficiency of nutritional and varietal information for the mangabeira being scarce the studies in soil fertility for the culture. Therefore, it is necessary an investigation of the best nitrogen and potassium fertilization for fruit. This study aimed to point the performance of three botanical varieties of Hancornia speciosa with nitrogen and potassium fertilization in savanna region. The experimental design was in randomized blocks in 3 x 5 scheme. Three botanical varieties of H. speciosa Gomes were used: H. Gardineri; H pubescens and H. cuyabensis, with five doses of formulation 25-00-15 (0,0, 20, 40, 60 and 80 g per plant) and three evaluation times (60, 120 and 180 days after coverage). Evaluated the stem diameter; Number of branches and height of plants. The mangabeiras have better development in the beginning to the end of the rainy season. The development of botanical varieties of Hancornia speciosa Gomes does not differ in the initial 30 months of cultivation. The doses of formulation 25-00-15 do not increase height and number of branches. There is an increase in diameter in the H. cuyabensis variety at 60 DAPC.

Barceli, A. C. | Bonaldo, S. M. | Raasch-Fernandes, L. D.
The fungus Olivea tectonae, has been increasing attention from different countries of course have teak or commercial plantations with the species, as it causes severe defoliation of plants, contributing to the reduction of production. The objective was to monitor different teak clones, with five months in Sinop / MT, with respect to the fungus O. tectonae, causal agent of rust. The study of disease progress was made between the months of May 2009 to July 2010, evaluating the severity visually in three regions of the plant: upper, middle and lower. We analyzed ten different clones C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, C8, C9, C10 and, after completion of data collection built up the area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC). The results showed that clone C7 was most likely at the top (AAPCD 35,45) and clone C1 was the most resistant (AACPD 22,37). The C9, C8 and C10 clones are statistically equal, more likely in the middle region (AAPCD 6.332,02; 5.873,34; 5.759,75, respectively) and C5 more resistant clone in this region (AACPD 1.872,70). In the lower region the clone C5 was the toughest (AACPD 5.691,06) and the C9 clone was the most likely (AACPD 15.746,73). In the analysis of the entire plant, the clone C5 was tougher (AACPD 27.603.889,00) and C9 clones C8 and C10 were statistically equal, proving to be the most susceptible to rust (AACPD 78.872.378,00; 68.335.115,00 e 65.686.893,00 respectively).

California farm 12 km from the headquarters of the municipality of Confresa-MT. Latitude 10° 38 '38 "S and Longitude-55° 34' 08" W, altitude of 200. The experiment was in DBC "A randomized block design, containing 5 treatments with 5 replicates. The treatments were composed of 5 doses of zinc and the doses: 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 kg ha-1 of zinc using the zinc sulfate source. Characteristics evaluated were: Plant height, number of tillers and Productivity, with the exception of productivity, the other evaluations were made 75 days after sowing and when the crop reached physiological maturity the productivity was adjusted by adjusting the humidity to 13%. The treatment that most responded in the characteristic height of plant was the maximum dose 8 kg/ha-1 of zinc, being in average to the plants 97,04 cm. Both productivity and number of tillers followed the same trend with the best response at the dose of 2 kg ha-1 of zinc, with a mean of 6.21 tillers per plant, and yield of 2,685 kg ha-1. This means that the nutrient is used by the plant in a small quantity, even though it is very important for the metabolism of the plant.

2019
Ferrari, E. | Valiati, S. | Pereira, C. S. | Fiorini, I. V. A. | Silva, A. A.
The mango is a tropical fruit, very popular, featuring a hard seed coat surrounding the seed which the period of viability is very short. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of maturation stage of the embryo and the presence or absence of the coat in the germination of mango, cv. Bourbon. We used a randomized design in a 4x2 factorial scheme totaling eight treatments in four replicates. The first factor examined was the stage of seed maturation (V - green, DV - "instead of" M - Mature and P - past). The second factor, with two levels, was the presence (TC) or absence of the tegument (ST). The experimental plot consisted of 10 seeds, 1 seed per plastic bag. We evaluated 50 days after sowing, germination (%), leaf area (cm2), stem diameter (cm), plant height (cm) and dry weight of shoot and root (g). It was found that no influence of the treatments on seed germination. The coat removal led to an increase in all vegetative characteristics for seeds DV, M and P, V except that the embryos were still in training. For the parameters stem diameter, leaf area and dry weight of roots and shoots no significant difference between treatments PCT, PST, MST and DVST, which were superior to others. Regarding the germination treatments DVST and MST, both with 85%, were statistically superior to others. As for the plant height was no significant difference between treatment means.

Silva, D.M.R. | Silva, C.H. | Santos, J.C.C. | Costa, R.N. | Silva, L.K.S. | Santos, S.A.
Lettuce is one of the vegetables grown throughout the country and is quite demanding in water. In order to answer questions about the value of the ideal irrigation blade for this crop, the present research was carried out with the objective of evaluating the lettuce response to the application of different water sheets in relation to crop evapotranspiration. The water sheets according to the crop evapotranspiration were analyzed in the following percentages, 25, 50, 75, 100 and 125. The plant height, stem diameter, leaf number and leaf area of lettuce seedlings were evaluated. It was verified that the plants submitted to the 25 and 50% evapotranspiration of the crop sheets had late development, whereas the 125% evapotranspiration of the crop sheet showed the best results in relation to lettuce growth. Therefore, the 125% sheet of crop evapotranspiration provides better lettuce growth results.

Silva, A. V. | Wangen, D. R. B. | Silva Filho, J. F. | Cruvinel, R. S.
It was aimed study was to evaluate doses of organic compost of domestic solid waste in the lettuce production in pots made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The experimental design was a randomized complete block, with eight treatments and three replications. The treatments were: five doses of the organic compost: 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20 L m-3 of soil, mineral fertilization and a control. Fresh mass of roots (MF), fresh mass of roots (MFt), shoot dry mass (MSPA), dry mass of roots (MSR) and leaf length (CF) were evaluated at 60 days after transplanting the seedlings to the pots. The results were submitted to analysis of variance. When the F-test was significant, the means of the treatments were compared by Tukey's test, and linear regression was applied to the compost doses, at 0.05 of significance. It was concluded that the doses of 4, 8, 12 and 16 L m-3 of the compost showed performance equal to that of the mineral fertilization, for some parameters, and exceeded it in relation to others, being able to substitute in lettuce cultivation. The production of MFPA, MSPA, MSPA, MFT and leaf length of lettuce plants increased linearly with the organic compost doses. The dose of 20 L m-3 of the compost provided the highest poroduction of MF e MS by lettuce plants, compared to the mineral fertilization.
