The essential oil of the leaves of Lippia alba chemotype linalool-1,8-cineol was extracted by hidrodistillation at different seasons and analyzed by GC/MS. Qualitative and quantitative variations in regard to the period of harvesting have been performed and the results were correlated with meteorological data. The essential oil yield varied from 0.33 to 0.67%. The chemical diversity of the constituents increased throughout the year, being 1,8-cineol and linalool the major components. Possible biosynthetic routes of mono and sesquiterpenoids present in the essential oil are discussed.

Insecticidal activity of essential oils of Pelargonium graveolens, Lippia alba and compounds geraniol, linalool, 1,8-cineole, limonene, carvone, citral and Azamax® were evaluated against Spodoptera frugiperda. Topical application assay showed essential oil of P. graveolens has acute toxicity against Spodoptera frugiperda larvae (third instar) with LD50 1.13 µg/mg per insect and LD90 2.56 µg/mg per insect. Three essential oils of L. alba also exhibited insecticidal activity with LD50 ranging from 1.20 to 1.56 µg/mg per insect and LD90 from 2.60 to 3.75 µg/mg per insect. Geraniol, linalool, carvone and citral caused significant mortality of 30, 90, 84 and 64% respectively, compared to negative control. The bioinsecticide, Azamax®, caused lower mortality than the compounds of the essential oils.

Seedlings of 41 different citrus species and varieties were massively colonized with the citrus brown aphid Toxoptera citricidus, obtained from Pêra sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) trees, presenting symptoms of the "Capão Bonito" complex of the Citrus tristeza virus (CTV). The objective was to evaluate resistance or tolerance of the varieties to that virus complex, but even after eight months of inoculation no stem pitting was observed in the plants. Otherwise, the presence of galls similar to those induced by the vein enation-woody gall disease was observed in 73% of the plants of Volkamer Palermo (Citrus volkameriana), 60% of the Volkamer Catania 2, 2% of the Rangpur Lime D.22.30 (Citrus limonia), 13% of the Volkamer Australian Red, the Rangpur Lime hybrid, the Orlando tangelo (Citrus reticulata x Citrus paradisi) and the Florida Rough lemon (C. jambhiri), and 7% of the Carrizo citrange (Poncirus trifoliata x Citrus sinensis). The highest incidence and the largest gall size were observed in the Palermo Volkamer showing that this clone would be the most suitable to be used as an indicator plant in biological indexing tests for the disease. There are no previous reports in the literature about the occurrence of woody galls in Orlando tangelo and Carrizo citrange.

The rice grain is frequently infected by a series of pathogens (fungi) during its storage, producing damages to the economy and health of humans. The aim of this study was to identify the fungal genera present in different rice genotypes and to quantify their variation during storage. Paddy, brown and milled rice fractions of Nutriar, (N) H329-5(H329) and Don Ignacio genotypes were analyzed at 4, 8 and 12 months of storage. Fungi were identified based on their micromorphological characteristics and colonies. The observed genera according to their frequency were: Alternaria, Nigrospora, Epicoccum, Bipolaris, Curvularia, Cladosporium and Fusarium (field fungi) and Penicillium and Aspergillus (storage fungi). The mycobiota composition was different depending on the grain fraction and the period of storage: field fungi were located in the hulls and bran layers, while storage fungi were mainly in the endosperm. The different genotypes showed different susceptibility to contamination.

Considerada ponto de convergência entre uma medicina mais mística e uma medicina mais objetiva, a Anatomia e a dissecação traçam uma trajetória sócio-histórica de proximidade com a profissão médica, constituindo parte da racionalidade profissional, justificando-se sua constância nos currículos médicos pela imprescindibilidade de conhecer o corpo-máquina humano para a plena execução das atividades profissionais. Esta dissertação visa caracterizar a Anatomia Humana como disciplina no contexto da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo no período de cátedra de Renato Locchi (19371955). Propõe-se a distinguir as características iniciais da constituição da Anatomia Humana enquanto disciplina nesta instituição; determinar seu espaço de legitimidade curricular; estabelecer seus elementos constitutivos diante da documentação analisada; e discutir possíveis permanências e rupturas na disciplina empreendida por Renato Locchi. Utilizamos como base as teorias da construção sócio-histórica das disciplinas escolares, notadamente as discussões de André Chervel e Ivor Goodson, de onde elencamos os elementos constitutivos de uma disciplina, categorias que utilizamos como base para a análise da documentação resgatada nos acervos do Museu de Anatomia Humana "Alfonso Bovero" do ICB/USP, do Museu Histórico "Carlos da Silva Lacaz" e da Assessoria Técnica Acadêmica, ambos da FMUSP. Tendo como base a análise de fontes primárias, traçamos uma disciplina com forte retórica legitimadora empreendida por Renato Locchi, que distingue o espaço-tempo da cadeira em duas vertentes: a anatomia como campo de pesquisa e a anatomia escolar, esta composta por seleções históricas mediadas pela primeira. Aliado às suas ações de ocupação dos espaços institucionais e modificações na cátedra que consolidaram espaços e tempos para as disputas internas oriundas das subculturas disciplinares emergentes, organizando os saberes e indivíduos em uma comunidade representativa, reforçando e criando tradições, elevando ao ápice o paradigma dissecatório como método, atividade e avaliação, Renato Locchi constrói a disciplina de Anatomia na acepção estrita do conceito.
