Vestígios de civilização e bárbarie na Bellé Époque ribeirãpretana: interpretação indicárias do cotidiano escolar do Terceiro Grupo Escolar

O presente trabalho busca compreender o processo civilizador que ocorreu na cidade de Ribeirão Preto na década de 1920, no contexto da Belle Époque Caipira. Para alcançar este objetivo, lançamos mão da análise da Ata de Exames Finais de 1927 do Terceiro Grupo Escolar de Ribeirão Preto. Para interpretar estes dados utilizamos uma abordagem indiciária, abrangendo diversos aspectos da realidade escolar.

Effects of mineral stress on the vegetative development of greenhouse-grown bell pepper plants

Biochemical changes during the induction of mineral stress in plants of bell pepper cultivated in fertigation system

The greenhouse production associated with the fertigation management, have established in Brazil as economical alternative for several horticultural species. With this strategy this study had as aim to evaluate possible impacts in the metabolism of plants of bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.; cv Elisa) in response to the increase of mineral concentration in the soil. During the experiments, the some nutrient concentrations were altered, to obtain high values of electric conductivity (EC) in the soil solution. The EC values commonly observed in the traditional fertigation system were adopted, as control. It was also verified the possibility of reduction of the mineral stress impact by the application of organic matter in the soil. Parameters of the antioxidative response system, as the superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase enzyme activities besides the proline content were evaluated to measure the extension of the saline stress and their effects on the plants. The increase of EC of the soil induced to the increase of the proline concentration and the SOD activity. Unexpectedly, it was verified that the saline stress inhibited the activity of the enzyme catalase. It was also concluded that the monitoring of EC of the soil is an indispensable tool to reach success in the fertigation system and that the study of the activity of the enzymes of the antioxidative response system, and the proline contents can be assumed as indicators in of the levels of stress in bell pepper plants (Capsicum annuum L.; cv Elisa).
