Desenvolvimento e estado nutricional da beterraba em função da omisão de nutrientes

Com o objetivo de avaliar o efeito da omissão de macronutrientes no desenvolvimento e no estado nutricional da beterraba, assim como descrever sintomas visuais de deficiência nutricional, um experimento foi conduzido em casa de vegetação da UNESP, Campus de Jaboticabal, SP. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualizado, com sete tratamentos, que corresponderam à solução completa (macro e micronutrientes) e à omissão individual de N, P, K, Ca, Mg e S, com três repetições. Avaliou-se a altura das plantas, o número de folhas, a área foliar, a matéria seca da parte aérea, da raiz e planta inteira, os teores dos macronutrientes da parte aérea e raiz e descritos as desordens nutricionais. As omissões individuais de N, P, K e Ca foram as mais limitantes para o crescimento vegetativo da beterraba, reduzindo consideravelmente a altura, o número de folhas e as matérias secas de parte aérea, raiz e planta inteira. Foram observados sintomas de deficiência nutricional de cada elemento. Os teores dos macronutrientes na parte aérea do tratamento completo e com omissão dos nutrientes foram respectivamente: N = 32,9 - 13,8; P = 9,0 - 0,8; K = 126,0 - 15,1; Ca = 12,0 - 1,0; Mg = 10,1 - 0,7; S = 3,6 - 1,2 g kg-1.

Omissão de macronutrientes no crescimento e no estado nutricional de plantas de repolho cultivado em solução nutritiva

Given the importance of heart, especially among the high brassica consumption, coupled with the scarcity of studies that report symptoms of nutritional disorders in the culture, the work was carried out to evaluate the effect of the omission of macronutrients in the development and nutritional status of cabbage, and describe visual symptoms of nutritional deficiency. The experiment was conducted under greenhouse conditions in the UNESP, Jaboticabal, SP. The experiment was arranged in completely randomized design with three replications and seven treatments, corresponding to complete nutritive solution (macro and micronutrients) and individual N, P, K, Ca, Mg and S omission. Plant height, number of leaves, leaf area, shoot, root and whole plant dry mass and macronutrient levels were determined and nutritional deficiency symptoms were described. Individual omissions of N, P, K or Ca were limiting for cabbage growth, considerably reducing plant height, number of leaves, and shoot, root and whole plant dry mass. Nutritional deficiency symptoms were observed for each element. Shoot macronutrient levels in control and nutrient omission treatments were, respectively: N = 31.0-11.9; P = 5.3-0.60; K = 63.5-4.8; Ca = 25.9-4.8; Mg = 5.2-0.5; S = 10.3-1.4 g kg(-1).

Aplicação de doses de vinhaça sob desenvolvimento vegetativo de pastagem degradada e propriedades físicas do solo

The experiment was conducted in the experimental field of the University of GoiásUEG, UNU Ipameri - GO with the objective of evaluating the effect of different doses of vinasse on the vegetative development of degraded pasture and soil physical properties in two seasons. The pasture used in the experiment was in a state of degradation, and had eight years of formation. The experimental design was randomized blocks consisted of eight treatments and four blocks, totaling 32 experimental units. We evaluated the following soil physical properties: density the soil, particle density, total porosity, infiltration velocity, soil water. We also evaluated the following parameters of vegetative development of grassland: green and dry mass of shoots, effective depth of the root system, the grass height. The results were submitted to analysis of variance at 5% significance level and after we performed regression testing. The vinasse promoted significant effect on all parameters related to vegetative development of both grazing during the rainy season as in the dry. In this case, a model that best fit the dataset vegetative pasture was quadratic. It appeared that the vinasse different doses did not cause changes in the physical properties of the soil.
