Sesbania punicea (Cav.) Benth. é um arbusto que pode atingir de 1-4m de altura, cuja floração ocorre na primavera e no verão, frutificando no outono. O fruto é do tipo legume reto, produzindo em média 10 sementes por fruto. Sua propagação é frequentemente facilitada por perturbações na natureza, sendo bastante tolerante a solos pobres se adaptando a qualquer clima. O presente estudo teve por objetivo verificar os requisitos para germinação de Sesbania punicea sob influência de fatores abióticos. As sementes de Sesbania utilizadas neste estudo foram coletadas na APA da Lagoa Verde, Rio Grande- RS. Para avaliar o investimento reprodutivo da espécie foram realizadas as medidas morfométricas de 200 sementes. Para o teste de germinação, foram utilizados dois tipos de tratamentos: umidade e alagamento, ambos nas condições de luz e escuro, à temperatura de 25ºC, submetidos a quatro potenciais salinos: 0, 5, 10 e 15g de NaClL -1 . No teste em alagamento foram colocadas 100 sementes para cada salinidade em tubos Falcon transparentes, e para umidade, o mesmo número de sementes foi disposta em caixas gerbox transparentes contendo papel germitest, distribuídas de acordo com as respectivas salinidades. Os testes tiveram duração de 30 dias e a germinação foi acompanhada diariamente. Para avaliar o crescimento, 80 sementes foram colocadas em copos de poliestireno transparente de 100 ml, sendo 10 sementes para cada teste e, para análise da concentração de pigmentos, foram utilizadas plântulas com 30 dias de idade, crescendo nas mesmas condições de salinidade em que as sementes germinaram. As amostras de plântulas foram pesadas e logo após maceradas com 100 ml de acetona a 80% de concentração. A seguir, foram realizadas as leituras da concentração dos pigmentos em espectrofotômetro. As sementes de S. punicea utilizadas neste estudo, apresentaram tamanho pequeno (0,6 ± 0,01 cm). Houve respostas positivas de germinação tanto em presença quanto em ausência de luz, embora a germinação no teste em luz tenha sido maior, assim como a germinação no tratamento Alagado/ Luz, em 0g NaCl L-1 . Ao serem realizados os testes adicionando a variável salinidade, as respostas de germinação destas sementes mostraram um comportamento diferenciado, tendo um número menor de sementes germinadas com o aumento da concentração salina. As plântulas cresceram mais nos tratamentos em alagado e o aumento da concentração salina também reduziu o tamanho e o número de folhas das mesmas. No experimento de extração de pigmentos, clorofila a e b, os testes não demonstraram diferenças entre os tratamentos. Embora sementes de Sesbania punicea germinem sob influência de salinidade, o baixo desenvolvimento das plântulas observadas neste estudo sinalizam o cuidado que deve ser tomado ao utilizarmos a espécie para recuperação de áreas degradadas em ambientes com influência de salinidade.

The mobilization of food reserves in storage tissues and allocation of their hydrolysis products in the growing axis are critical processes for the establishment of seedlings after germination. Therefore, it is crucial for mobilization of reserves to be synchronized with the growing axis, so that photosynthetic activity can be started before depletion of reserves. For this, integrative approaches involving different reserves, different hydrolysis products and interaction between storage and growing axis tissues, either through hormones or metabolites with signaling role, can contribute greatly to the elucidation of the regulation mechanisms for reserve mobilization. In this study, was hypothesized that hormones and metabolites have different actions on reserve mobilization, and there must be a crossed effect of sugars on the mobilization of proteins and amino acids on lipids and starch mobilization in sunflower seedlings. This study was conducted with seeds of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) hybrid Helio 253 using in vitro culture system. Seeds were germinated on Germitest® paper and grown on agar-water 4 g/L without addition of nutrients during 9 days after imbibition (DAI) for growth curve. To verify the effect of metabolites and hormones, seedlings were transferred in the 2nd DAI to agar-water 4 g/L supplemented with increasing concentrations of sucrose or L-glutamine, abscisic acid, gibberellic acid or indolebutyric acid. The results of this study confirm that the mobilization of lipids and storage proteins occurs in a coordinated manner during post-germination growth in sunflower, corroborating the hypothesis that the application of external carbon (sucrose) and nitrogen (L-glutamine) sources can delay the mobilization of these reserves in a crossed way. Moreover, considering the changes in the patterns of reserve mobilization and partition of their products in seedlings treated with different growth regulators, it is evident that the effects of metabolites and hormones must involve, at least in part, distinct mechanisms of action

O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da palha residual da colheita da cana-de-açúcar e da adição de vinhaça sobre o solo na emergência e no crescimento inicial de cultivares de girassol. Os tratamentos foram dispostos em esquema fatorial (5 x 2 x 3), em blocos ao acaso, com quatro repetições, combinando-se cinco quantidades de palha de cana-de-açúcar (0, 5, 10, 15 e 20t ha-1) com aplicação ou não de 150m3 ha-1 de vinhaça residual da indústria sulcroalcooleira, utilizando-se três cultivares de girassol (IAC-iarama, Catissol e Helio 358). Foram determinadas a velocidade e a porcentagem final de emergência de plântulas, além do comprimento e da biomassa seca da parte aérea de plantas aos 30 dias após a semeadura. Verificou-se que a presença da palha de cana-de-açúcar e da vinhaça, em quantidade equivalente a 150m3 ha-1, em ação conjunta ou isolada, reduz a emergência de plântulas e o crescimento inicial de cultivares de girassol. Entretanto, essa redução não compromete drasticamente o desempenho das cultivares (IAC-iarama, Catissol e Helio-358), que não diferiram entre si.

O Abiu [Pouteria caimito (Ruiz & Pav.) Radlk.] é uma espécie arbórea frutífera com o consumo difundido principalmente nos estados do Acre, Amapá e Pará. O objetivo foi avaliar aspectos biométricos de frutos e sementes e a influência do sombreamento na emergência de plântulas de abiu. Foram coletados 50 frutos, em Santa Bárbara (PA) e, foram realizadas mensurações do comprimento, diâmetro, massa, e contagem do número de sementes por fruto. Posteriormente, foram separadas 100 sementes e mediu-se o comprimento, largura e a espessura. Para estudar a influência do nível de sombreamento na emergência foram utilizados quatro tratamentos: pleno sol, 30, 50 e 70%, constando de quatro repetições de 25 sementes por tratamento. Foram avaliados a porcentagem e o tempo médio de emergência. Os aspectos biométricos de frutos e sementes foram submetidos à análise descritiva e a porcentagem de emergência e tempo médio submetidas à análise de variância. Os frutos apresentaram tamanho médio igual a 58,99 e 51,66 mm para comprimento e diâmetro, respectivamente. As sementes apresentaram tamanho médio igual a 36,01; 16,06; 13,61 mm para comprimento, largura e espessura, respectivamente. Para a porcentagem de emergência de plântulas não houve diferença estatística entre os tratamentos, entretanto para o tempo médio os níveis de sombreamento foram menores diferindo estatisticamente em relação ao pleno sol.

Quimica Nova and the Journal of the Brazilian Chemical Society are two examples of successful initiatives taken by the Brazilian Chemical Society (SBQ - Sociedade Brasileira de Química), and may serve as models for the scientific societies of developing countries. Pillars of the SBQ, these two periodicals are undeniable demonstrations that idealism, utopia and dignity are the essential ingredients for transforming dreams into reality. Few believed that the Brazilian chemical community would one day have, as it does today, two scientific research periodicals indexed in the principal international data banks.

Morphological caracterization of the seeds and seedlings of six weed especies of the genus Solanum L. The seeds of the genus Solanum are very similar, however, the association of their external characteristics with the anatomical features, such as hilum shape, the texture and the type of the seed coat sculptures, as well as the curved (circulated or coiled) shape of the embryo, are parameters of great importance in the taxonomical identification at the species level. It is are presented the morphological descriptions of the genus Solanum and a more detailed description of each studied species in terms of seed and seedling structures, including illustrations and taxonomical keys for the identification of Solanum aculeatissimum Jacq., S. americanum Mill., S. ciliatum Lam., S. sisymbriifolium Lam., S. sordidum Sendt. e S. viarum Dunal. There are also indications of the common names, the type of reproduction and dispersion, the crops in which the species is considered as a weed and the agricultural seeds in which it is found as a weed seed.

Soil waterlogging and the subsequent reduction in the amount of oxygen available for the respiration of the root system selected, along the evolutive process, plants able to thrive in seasonally or permanently flooded areas. In neotropical plants there are many types of adaptations to flooding. In this paper we present the results of the work carried out with seeds and seedlings of C brasiliense subjected to hypoxia during germination and early development. C brasiliense seeds are not photoblastic and survive up to three months burried in a water saturated substrate, but germination only takes place in well-drained soils. Soil waterlogging does not inhibit seedling growth and there are no apparent morphological changes of the aerial part of flooded plants. New and aerated roots that make plant survival possible replace old and spoiled roots. In contrast to many typical species of flood-prone areas where growth is inhibited by oxygen stress. C. brasiliense seedlings seem to be well adapted to their waterlogged environment. Seed dispersion, the absence of photoblastic response as well as seed and seedling capacity of surviving and growing in waterlogged soils contribute to the wide geographic distribution of C. brasiliense always associated with areas subjected to soil waterlogging.

Cecropia glaziovii is a tree with used in Brazilian popular medicine. Methods allowing the clonal propagation of this species are of great interest for superior genotype multiplication and perpetuation. For this reason, we examined the effect of different culture media and different types of explants on adventitious shoot regeneration from callus and buds of C. glaziovii. Leaves, petioles and stipules obtained from aseptically grown seedlings or from pre-sterilized plants were used to initiate cultures. Adventitious shoot regeneration was achieved when apical and axillary buds were inoculated on gelled Murashige & Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurine alone (BAP) (1.0, 5.0 or 10.0 mg L-1) or combined with -naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) (1.0 or 2.0 mg L-1), after 40 days of culture. Best callus production was obtained after 30 days of petioles' culture on gelled MS medium with 2,4 dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) (5.0 mg L-1) combined with BAP (1.0 mg L-1). Successful shoot regeneration from callus was achieved when MS medium supplemented with zeatin (ZEA) (0.1 mg L-1) alone or combined with 2,4-D (1.0 or 5.0 mg L-1) was inoculated with friable callus obtained from petioles. All shoots were rooted by inoculation on MS medium supplemented with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) (1.0 mg L-1). Rooted plants transferred to potting soil were successfully established. All in vitro regenerated plantlets showed to be normal, without morphological variations, being also identical to the source plant. Our study has shown that C. glaziovii can be propagated by tissue culture methods, allowing large scale multiplication of superior plants for pharmacological purposes.

The recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) can improve weight gain, physical growth, clinical and lung in cystic fibrosis (CF). However, the routine use, although promising, is not established in the literature. The objective of this study was to assess the benefits of rhGH in children and adolescents with CF. We conducted a systematic review in the database PubMed, Lilacs, SciELO and Cochrane, in the period 2000-2010, using the keywords: cystic fibrosis, growth hormone, children and adolescents. We found 77 articles and included 11 randomized controlled trials, with 290 children and adolescents with CF. The short-term use (1-24 months) of rhGH improved the height, weight, growth rate, bone mineral content and components of pulmonary function. Adverse effects, like diabetes, were not observed in the studies. The short-term use of rhGH improved growth and body composition in patients with CF.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the growth and body composition of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A cohort of 44 patients with T1DM were followed up for approximately four years and compared with a control group. Weight, height, body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage (BF%), fat mass index, waist circumference (WC) and waist-height ratio were determined. RESULTS: In females, in the first evaluation, BF% was lower in patients than in controls, while in the second evaluation, mean WC was higher in patients than in controls. In males, height of the patients was lower in the first evaluation, while body mass index (BMI) was higher in the second one. We did not find any differences among the changes in height, weight and BMI z-scores and BF% or in the distribution of those z-scores between the two evaluations, in both groups. Multiple regression analysis found differences in BMI and waist-height ratio in both sexes and also in WC in females. CONCLUSION: The patients had adequate growth but showed discrepancy in their body composition during the study.
