RESUMO O déficit hídrico em determinadas fases do ciclo de cultivo do algodoeiro pode causar severos danos, afetando as estruturas reprodutivas, acarretando perda na produtividade. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a resposta de cultivares de algodoeiro submetidas ao déficit hídrico em diferentes fases do ciclo de cultivo. Comparou-se o número de capulhos por metro, a produtividade e a eficiência no uso da água em oito cultivares de algodoeiro herbáceo, submetidas a déficit hídrico por 15 dias nos estádios: emergência, emissão do primeiro botão floral, emissão da primeira flor, emissão da primeira maçã, abertura do primeiro capulho e a testemunha irrigada com 100% da ETc. O experimento foi instalado no município de Apodi-RN, região Semiárida do Nordeste, em área irrigada por aspersão. O número de capulhos por metro, a produtividade de algodão em caroço e a eficiência de uso da água foram influenciadas pela interação cultivares x déficit hídrico. Os piores resultados foram observados para o déficit hídrico de 15 dias após a emissão da primeira maçã e da primeira flor. Quando o déficit hídrico foi imposto nas fases de crescimento inicial, após a emissão do primeiro botão floral e após a abertura do primeiro capulho, a perda de produtividade não foi significativa. Dentro de um mesmo período de déficit hídrico, as cultivares se comportaram de maneira similar. Os produtores devem levar essa informação em consideração para ouso da irrigação suplementar e para programação das irrigações, evitando que o déficit hídrico ocorra nos períodos mais críticos do ciclo de cultivo. | ABSTRACT Water deficit at certain cotton growth stages can cause severe damage to crop development, affecting physiological processes and reducing reproductive structures, with consequent yield losses. The objective of this study was to evaluate the response of cotton cultivars under water deficit applied at different stages of the crop cycle. We compared the number of bolls per meter, cotton yield, and water use efficiency for eight different cotton cultivars under a water deficit of 15 days. We selected the following growth stages: Emergence (EM), First Square (FS), First Flower (FL), Peak Bloom (PB), and First Open Boll (FOB). The control treatment was irrigated with 100% ETc. The experiment was conducted in Apodi, RN State of Brazil, semiarid region, using a sprinkler irrigation system. The number of bolls per meter, cotton yield, and water use efficiency were influenced by the interaction of cultivars x deficit periods. Lowest values were observed for water suppression in the FL and PB stages. When the water deficit was imposed in the initial stages of growth (EM to FS) or after the FOB stage, the cotton yield reduction was not significant. At the same stage and water deficit, the behavior of the different cultivars was similar. Producers are urged to take this information into account when developing irrigation schemes for cotton crops, thereby avoiding water deficits during the most critical periods of the crop cycle.

ABSTRACT The soybean-corn succession in no-tillage system (DSS) is the most common cultivation practice in the state of Mato Grosso. Soils submitted to this type of system are prone to the formation of fertility gradients and surface compaction, restricting crop productivity. The objective of this work was to evaluate the physical-chemical attributes of an Oxisol after 11 years of continuous succession of soybean and corn in direct seeding, using geostatistical analysis techniques and main components. The experiment was conducted at the Chão Nativo farm located in the municipality of Sinop, Mato Grosso, Cerrado-Amazonian ecotone. For this, a rectangular mesh was installed with 103 sampling points distributed in an area of 7.02 ha, in which the grain yield of the soybean was determined as well as the physical and chemical attributes of the soil in the layers 0-10 and 0.10 - 0.20 m. Soybean showed a grain yield between 2.83 and 3.70 Mg ha-1, which was positively correlated with the spatial distribution of pH, phosphorus and potassium. The soil presented low physical quality due to high soil resistance to penetration and macroporosity less than 10%; however, no spatial correlation of physical attributes with soybean yield was observed. | RESUMO A sucessão soja-milho em semeadura direta (SSD) é a prática de cultivo mais comum no estado de Mato Grosso. Os solos submetidos a este tipo de sistema estão propensos à formação de gradientes de fertilidade e compactação superficial, restringindo a produtividade das culturas. O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar os atributos físico-químicos de um Latossolo Vermelho-Amarelo após 11 anos de sucessão contínua de soja e milho em semeadura direta, utilizando-se técnicas de análise geoestatística e componentes principais. O experimento foi conduzido na fazenda Chão Nativo localizada no município de Sinop, Mato Grosso, ecótono Cerrado-Amazônia. Para isso instalou-se uma malha retangular com 103 pontos amostrais distribuídos em uma área de 7,02 ha, nos quais se determinou a produtividade de grãos da soja e os atributos físicos e químicos do solo nas camadas de 0-10 e 0,10-0,20 m. A soja apresentou amplitude na produtividade de grãos entre 2,83 e 3,70 Mg ha-1, que foi correlacionada de forma positiva com a distribuição espacial do pH, fósforo e potássio. O solo apresentou baixa qualidade física devido a elevada resistência do solo à penetração e macroporosidade menor que 10 %, contudo, não foi observada correlação espacial dos atributos físicos com a produtividade da soja.

ABSTRACT Cowpea is broadly cultivated worldwide, especially in semi-arid or arid regions where soil or irrigation water salt contents can negatively influence the species’ productive capacity. The objective of this study was to evaluate the morphophysiological responses of cowpea genotypes to irrigation water salinity. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, under a completely randomized design with nine replications and in a 5x3 factorial scheme. Treatments consisted of five levels of irrigation water electrical conductivity - EC (EC0: 0.55; EC1: 1.60; EC2: 3.20; EC3: 4.80 and EC4: 6.40 dS m-1), applied from the 15th day after sowing (DAS), and three cowpea genotypes (G1: BRS Imponente; G2: MNC04-795F-168 and G3: MNC04-795F-159). EC increases at 35 DAS promoted stem diameter reductions of 8.0% (G1), 11.4% (G2), and 7.7% (G3), indicating different resistance to salinity by each genotype. Leaf area reductions at 25 and 38 DAS were 30.9% and 38.8% for EC0 and EC4, respectively. The BRS Imponente cultivar presented a performance superior to those of G2 and G3 in relation to stem diameter and stem dry matter at 25 DAS, and root-shoot and root-leaf ratios at 38 DAS. | RESUMO O feijão-caupi é bastante cultivado no mundo, principalmente em regiões semiáridas ou áridas onde o teor de sais presentes no solo ou na água de irrigação pode influenciar negativamente na capacidade produtiva da espécie. Objetivou-se com o presente trabalho, avaliar as respostas morfofisiológicas de genótipos de feijão-caupi à salinidade da água de irrigação. O experimento foi conduzido em casa de vegetação no delineamento inteiramente casualizado com nove repetições, em esquema fatorial 5x3, sendo cinco níveis de condutividade elétrica da água de irrigação - CE (CE0: 0,55; CE1: 1,60; CE2: 3,20; CE3: 4,80 e CE4: 6,40 dS m-1) aplicados a partir do 15º dia após a semeadura (DAS) e três genótipos de feijão-caupi (G1: BRS Imponente; G2: MNC04-795F-168 e G3: MNC04-795F-159). Aumentos nas CE aos 35 DAS, promoveram reduções no diâmetro do caule de 8,0% (G1), 11,4% (G2) e 7,7% (G3) indicando resistências diferenciadas dos genótipos aos efeitos da salinidade. Entre CE0 e CE4 as reduções na área foliar aos 25 e 38 DAS foram de 30,9% e 38,8%, respectivamente. Os efeitos negativos da salinidade foram mais intensos nas matérias secas da raiz e da haste, aos 20 DAS e na matéria seca das folhas, aos 30 DAS. A cultivar BRS Imponente apresenta desempenho superior a G2 e G3 em relação ao diâmetro do caule e matéria seca da haste, aos 25 DAS, e razão parte aérea raiz e folha raiz, aos 38 DAS.

ABSTRACT The control of Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. SMITH) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) has been carried out mainly with pyrethroids and organophosphates insecticides. The continuous and indiscriminate use of synthetic insecticides, for decades, has led to the selection of resistant populations and has caused concerns for human health and the environment. An alternative is the use of botanical insecticides, including through the mixtures with synthetic insecticides. This study aimed to investigate the toxicity of copaiba oil-resin mixtures (COR) with deltamethrin, beta-cyfluthrin, beta-cypermethrin, methomyl, triazophos and chlorpyrifos for S. frugiperda. Bioassays were performed in the laboratory using newly hatched caterpillars on a contaminated surface (filter paper). Initially, concentration-mortality curves were established for each insecticide and COR. Based on the results, experiments were conducted to verify the effect of the COR mixtures with synthetic insecticides in the proportions of 1:1 (LC25 + LC25) on larvae of S. frugiperda. Additionally, COR concentration-response curves were established by adding 1/8 of the recommended rate of each insecticide. Notably, the use of this concentration for all insecticides was previously determined in bioassays, and no significant toxicity was found for S. frugiperda caterpillars. It was found that the toxicity of COR increased substantially by adding synthetic insecticides, especially with lower mixtures with beta-cypermethrin, methomyl and triazophos. | RESUMO O controle de Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. SMITH) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) tem sido realizado principalmente com inseticidas piretróides e organofosforados. O uso contínuo e indiscriminados de inseticidas sintéticos, durante décadas, tem ocasionado a seleção de populações resistentes, bem como preocupações em relação à saúde humana e ao meio ambiente. Uma alternativa é o emprego de inseticidas botânicos, inclusive por meio de misturas com inseticidas sintéticos. Assim, este trabalho teve por objetivo investigar a toxicidade de misturas do óleo-resina de copaíba (ORC) com os inseticidas deltametrina, beta-ciflutrina, beta-cipermetrina, metomil, triazofós e clorpirifós para S. frugiperda. Foram realizados bioensaios em laboratório utilizando-se lagartas recém-eclodidas em superfície contaminada (papel filtro). Inicialmente, foram estabelecidas curvas de concentração-mortalidade para cada inseticida e para o COR. A partir dos resultados obtidos foram realizados bioensaios para verificar o efeito das misturas do ORC com os inseticidas sintéticos nas proporções de 1:1 (CL25 + CL25) sobre lagartas de S. frugiperda. Adicionalmente, foram estabelecidas curvas de concentração-resposta do ORC adicionando-se 1/8 da dose comercial de cada inseticida. Vale destacar que o uso desta fração para todos os inseticidas foi determinada em bioensaios preliminaries, não tendo apresentado toxicidade considerável para as lagartas de S. frugiperda. Constatou-se que a toxicidade do ORC aumentou substancialmente adicionando-se os inseticidas sintéticos, com menor destaque para as misturas com beta-cipermetrina, metomil e triazofós.

RESUMO O raleio consiste na retirada do excesso de frutos e tem como objetivo aumentar o tamanho de frutos comercializáveis, evitar a quebra de ramos, reduzir os custos da colheita e promover um equilíbrio entre a fase vegetativa e a reprodutiva da planta. Além disso, este procedimento pode promover a melhora de coloração, aumento do teor de sólidos solúveis e manter o vigor da planta. Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar os efeitos do raleio de frutos em cinco variedades de lichieira (Bengal, Americana, Mauritius, Sweft Cliff e WB4), para as condições do município de Jaboticabal - São Paulo. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualizado (DIC), com 5 tratamentos e 7 repetições, sendo três plantas por repetição. Os tratamentos utilizados foram as intensidades de raleio caracterizadas pelo número de frutos deixados nas panículas do ramo terminal, sendo T1: 3 frutos/ramo; T2: 6 frutos/ramo; T3: 9 frutos/ramo; T4: 12 frutos/ramo; T5: sem raleio (controle). As avaliações foram por meio da colorimetria dos frutos maduros, análises físicas e químicas para cada uma das variedades estudadas. Os tratamentos influenciaram a resposta das variedades em relação às variáveis analisadas. A “Mauritius” apresenta características físicas e químicas interessantes, atendendo as exigências do mercado consumidor. | ABSTRACT Fruit thinning is the removal of fruitlets in heavy fruit set situations and aims to increase salable fruit sizes, avoid branch breakdown, reduce harvesting costs, and promote a balance between the vegetative and reproductive growth of plants. Furthermore, this procedure may improve coloring, increase soluble solids, and maintain plant vigor. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of fruit thinning in five varieties of lychee (Bengal, American, Mauritius, Sweet Cliff, and WB4), in the conditions of Jaboticabal - São Paulo state (Brazil). The experimental design was a completely randomized design (CRD) with five treatments and seven replications of three plants each. Treatments consisted of fruit thinning intensities characterized by the number of fruit left on terminal branch panicles, being T1: 3 fruits/branch; T2: 6 fruits /branch; T3: 9 fruit/ branch; T4: 12 fruits/branch; T5: no thinning (control plot). Evaluations were made through a colorimetric assay on ripe fruits, besides a physical and chemical analysis for each variety. The treatments affected the response of varieties on each studied variable. The variety “Mauritius” showed interesting physical and chemical characteristics for the consumer market.

Essential oils have been extensively used in many commercial applications, one of them being anesthetics. The effect of four essential oils (tea tree, clove, eucalyptus, and mint oils) on the sedation, recovery, and behavioral stress of Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ) was evaluated. The sedative solutions, prepared with essential oils and anhydrous ethanol (1:4), were used for fish management procedures at a dose of 7.4 mL L - 1 in a completely randomized block design with four treatments and seven replicates. The means were compared using Scott – Knott test (P < 0.05). Clove oil was found to be the most suitable oil for the immobilization of Nile tilapia; however, behavioral observations indicate that tea tree oil was the most efficient in reducing stress.

RESUMO Óleos essenciais vêm sendo intensamente utilizados em diversas aplicações comerciais, dentre elas como anestésicos. Avaliou-se o efeito de soluções com óleos extraídos de quatro tipos vegetais (melaleuca, cravo, eucalipto e menta) na sedação, na recuperação e no comportamento de estresse de tilápia-do-Nilo. Utilizaram-se soluções sedativas (óleo essencial:etanol, 1:4) na água de manejo dos peixes na dosagem de 7,4 mL/L sob delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com quatro tratamentos e sete repetições. Os resultados foram submetidos ao teste Scott-Knott (P < 0,05). De acordo com os resultados, o mais indicado para a imobilização de tilápia-do-Nilo é o óleo de cravo, no entanto as observações comportamentais indicam o óleo de melaleuca como o mais eficiente na redução do estresse. | ABSTRACT Essential oils have been extensively used in many commercial applications, one of them being anesthetics.

Stream water quality is dependent on many factors, including the source and quantity of the streamflow and the types of geology and soil along the path of the stream. This study aims to evaluate the origin and the mechanisms controlling the input of ions that effect surface water quality in the sub-basin of the Rio das Cobras, Rio Grande do Norte state, Northeastern Brazil. Thirteen ponds were identified for study: three in the main river and ten in the tributaries between, thus covering the whole area and lithology of the sub-basin. The samples were collected at two different times (late dry and rainy periods) in the hydrological years 2009 and 2010, equating to total of four collection times. We analyzed the spatial and seasonal behavior of water quality in the sub-basin, using Piper diagrams, and analyzed the source of the ions using Guibbs diagram and molar ratios. With respect to ions, we found that water predominate in 82% sodium and 76% bicarbonate water (cations and anions, respectively). The main salinity control mechanism was related to the interaction of the colloidal particles (minerals and organic sediment) with the ions dissolved in water. Based on the analysis of nitrates and nitrites there was no evidence of contamination from anthropogenic sources.

As amostras foram coletadas em duas épocas distintas (final dos períodos secos e chuvosos) nos anos hidrológicos de 2009 e 2010, totalizando 4 momentos de coleta. Analisou-se o comportamento espacial e sazonal da qualidade da água na sub-bacia utilizando o diagrama de Piper e a origem dos íons pelo diagrama de Gibbs e razão molar. Constatou-se que em relação aos íons, predominam águas sódicas em 82% e águas bicarbonatadas 76% (cátions e ânions), respectivamente. Os resultados obtidos sugerem que o principal mecanismo controlador da salindiade está relacionado a interação das partículas coloidais (sedimentos orgânicos e minerais) com os íons dissolvidos na água. Também não se observou indícios de contaminação antrópica na área, tendo por base a análise de nitratos e nitritos.

Brazil is one of the world's largest producers of melon (Cucumis melo L.), and Rio Grande do Norte and Ceará are the largest producers states of the country (99% of exports). This crop had great socio- economic importance in the Brazilian Northeast, however, it is affected by insect pests and consequently, large amounts of pesticides are applied to it, which greatly affect beneficial organisms, such as Chrysopidae. This bioassay evaluated the toxicity of nine insecticides used in commercial crops of muskmelon, applied to first- instar larvae of Chrysoperla genanigra of up to 24-hour-old, from mass rearing cultures. Sublethal effects were evaluated, classifying the insecticides into the toxicity classes recommended by the IOBC. A completely randomized design was used, consisting of ten treatments (clothianidin, pymetrozine, lambda-cyhalothrin, chlorantraniliprole, indoxacarb, pyriproxyfen, beta-cyfluthrin+imidacloprid, imidacloprid, beta-cypermethrin and a control consisted of distilled water). The treatments consisted of exposure of thirty larvae to dry residues of each product in Petri dishes, assessing their mortality, duration of instars, sex ratio, fecundity and viability of eggs from adults of the insects evaluated. The products were classified in toxicity classes as harmful (Class 4) (clothianidin, pymetrozine, indoxacarb, lambda-cyhalothrin, beta-cyfluthrin+imidacloprid, imidacloprid, beta- cypermethrin and pyriproxyfen) and innocuous (Class 1) (chlorantraniliprole) to first -instar larvae of C. genanigra, by calculate their total effect. Based on this work, chlorantraniliprole is the only recommended insecticide for use in integrated pest management (IPM) programs in muskmelon crops.

This study aimed to assess the effect of nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) fertilisation on the forage accumulation and nutritive value of Urochloa ruziziensis during the summer of 2010/2011 and autumn, winter, spring and summer of 2011/2012. A complete randomised block design with four treatments (0, 120, 240 and 360 kg ha-1 year-1 N and K2O) and five replicates were used. The data were analysed under the PROC MIXED of SAS®. The following variables were evaluated: sward height; forage mass; forage bulk density; percentages of leaf blade dry matter, stem dry matter, and dead material dry matter; leaf blade:stem ratio; contents of dry matter and crude protein; in vitro digestibility of dry matter; neutral detergent fibre content; and lignin content of Urochloa ruziziensis. There was an interaction between the N and K levels of fertilisation and the season for all variables. In addition, there was a positive linear effect of the N and K levels of fertilisation on the forage accumulation rate, the crude protein content and the in vitro digestibility of dry matter and a negative linear effect these levels on the neutral detergent fibre and lignin contents during the spring and summer of 2011/2012. N and K fertilisation and the climate changes characteristic of each season jointly affected the accumulation and nutritive value of Urochloa ruziziensis. N and K fertilisation up to 360 kg ha-1 year-1 improved the forage accumulation and nutritive value of Urochloa ruziziensis.

RESUMO Este estudo objetivou avaliar o efeito da adubação com nitrogênio (N) e potássio (K) sobre o acúmulo o valor nutritivo da forragem da Urochloa ruziziensis, durante as estações de verão de 2010/2011 (verão 1), outono, inverno, primavera e verão de 2011/2012. Foi utilizado o delineamento em blocos completos casualizados com quatro tratamentos (0, 120, 240 e 360 kg ha-1year-1 de N e K2O) e cinco repetições. Os dados foram analisados pelo PROC MIXED do SAS®. Foram avaliadas as variáveis: altura do dossel, massa de forragem, densidade volumétrica da forragem; porcentagens de massas secas de lâminas foliares, colmos de material morto; relação lâmina: colmo; teores de matéria seca, proteína bruta e digestibilidade in vitro da matéria seca, fibra em detergente neutro, lignina da forragem da Urochloa ruziziensis. Houve efeito de interação entre doses de adubação com N e K e estação do ano para todas as variáveis. Também houve efeito linear positivo de doses de fertilização com N e K sobre a taxa de acúmulo de forragem, o teor de proteína bruta e da digestibilidade in vitro da matéria seca, e efeito linear negativo sobre os teores de fibra em detergente neutro e de lignina durante a primavera e o verão 2. A adubação com N e K e as mudanças climáticas características de cada estação afetam de forma conjunta o acúmulo e valor nutritivo da Urochloa ruziziensis. A adubação com N e K com até 360 kg ha-1ano-1 aumenta o acúmulo de foragem e o valor nutritivo de Urochloa ruziziensis. | ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess the effect of nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) fertilisation on the forage accumulation and nutritive value of Urochloa ruziziensis during the summer of 2010/2011 and autumn, winter, spring and summer of 2011/2012.

Aggregate formation and stability are related to soil quality, contributing significantly to the carbon storage and nutrient maintenance capacities of the soil. Soil aggregates are formed by two different process: physicogenic, related to moistening and drying cycles and input of organic matter; and biogenic, related to the action of macrofauna organisms and roots. The objective this work was to classify aggregates according to their formation process, quantify and compare organic carbon contents in humic substances and assess the stability of aggregates formed by different processes, in areas with different coverage in the Mid Paraiba Valley, Pinheiral, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Aggregated soil samples were collected at a depth of 0-10 cm, in a Cambisol (Cambissolo Háplico Tb Distrófico) under four plant covers: secondary forest in advanced (SFAS), medium (SFMS) and initial (SFIS) successional stages and managed mixed pasture (MMP). Aggregates were classified and identified into three morphological classes (physicogenic, biogenic and intermediate). The variables evaluated were mean weight diameter (MWD) and geometric mean diameter (GMD) of aggregates, chemical fractions of organic matter, total organic carbon (TOC) and humic substances: humin (C-HUM) humic acid (C-FAH) and fulvic acid (C-FAF). Biogenic aggregates were found in smaller quantities and showed higher TOC, C-HUM and C-FAH, compared to intermediate and physicogenic aggregates. Thus, biogenic aggregates have potential to be used as soil quality indicators for structured environments, which are able to maintain its intrinsic formation processes.

Os agregados do solo são formados por duas vias distintas: a fisiogênica, relacionada a ciclos de umedecimento e/ou secagem e adição de matéria orgânica e a biogênica associada à ação dos organismos da macrofauna e de raízes. Neste estudo, objetivou-se separar os agregados conforme a via de formação e, posteriormente, quantificar e comparar os teores de carbono orgânico das substâncias húmicas e a estabilidade de agregados formados por diferentes vias e coberturas vegetais, na região do Médio Vale do Paraiba Fluminense, Pinheiral (RJ). Foram coletadas amostras indeformadas de solo na profundidade de 0-10 cm, em um Cambissolo Háplico Tb Distrófico, sob quatro coberturas vegetais: floresta secundária em diferentes estádios sucessionais - avançado (FSEA); médio (FSEM); inicial (FSEI) e uma área de pasto misto manejado (PMM). Os agregados foram separados e identificados em três classes morfológicas (fisiogênica, biogênica e intermediária). Posteriormente, foram determinados o diâmetro médio ponderado (DMP) e geométrico (DMG) dos agregados, fracionamento químico da matéria orgânica e quantificação dos teores de carbono orgânico total (COT) e das substâncias húmicas: humina (C-HUM), ácido húmico (C-FAH) e ácido fúlvico (C-FAF). Os agregados biogênicos foram encontrados em menor quantidade e apresentaram maiores teores de COT, C-HUM, C-FAH em comparação aos agregados intermediários e fisiogênicos. Dessa forma, os agregados biogênicos têm potencial para serem enquadrados como indicadores de qualidade do solo, associados a ambientes mais estruturados, capazes de manter os processos intrínsecos a sua formação.
