Diversos fatores ambientais, como pH, temperatura e umidade do solo influenciam a densidade e a atividade dos microorganismos. É possível que o equilíbrio da biosfera esteja sendo modificado pelas mudanças globais de origem natural e/ou antrôpica e influenciando os fatores ambientais que determinam o comportamento da microbiota edáfica. Afim de verificar a influencia dessas alterações, foi desenvolvido o presente estudo na área do experimento ESECAFLOR, que simula a ocorrência de fenômenos extremos, como o evento El Niño e na área do Programa PPBio (área de Floresta Primária), que visa estudar a Biodiversidade da Amazônia, sendo está última usada para fins comparativos (Testemunha). As amostras de solo para as análises químicas, física e biológicas foram coletadas nas profundidades: 00 – 05, 05 -10, 10 – 20 e 20 – 30 cm, nos períodos sazonais Chuvoso, Transição e Menos Chuvoso. Também foi determinado a Temperatura do solo nas mesmas profundidades. Os métodos utilizados foram os descritos por Embrapa (1997), Clark (1965), Gerhardt (1994), Yang et al. (1998) e Keeney (1982). O tratamento dos dados e os testes estatísticos (ANOVA: dois critério, Teste de Tukey e Correlação Linear Simples) foram realizados por meio do programa estatísticos Bioestat 5.0. Os maiores teores de macro e micro nutrientes foram encontrados na área de floresta primária natural (PPBio). Os maiores valores de Unidades Formadoras de Colônias (196 x 104 UFC/g de solo e 124 x 102 UFC/g de solo) para a população de Bactérias e Fungos, respectivamente, foram identificados também na área do PPBio e nos períodos chuvoso e intermediário, respectivamente. Foi identificado diferença significativa entre os dados obtidos para ambas as áreas e também houve diferença significativa dos dados de cada área em relação aos períodos sazonais e as profundidades estudados. A área que sofreu alteração antrópica (ESECAFLOR) apresentou os menores teores para os macro e micronutrientes, evidenciando a influência do processo de exclusão das águas pluviais na disponibilidade desses elementos no solo.

The aim of this study was evaluate the response of two coffee cultivars (tolerant and sensitive to aluminum - Al), inoculated or not by two arbuscular mycorriza fungi (AMF), Gigaspora margarita and Glomus etunicatum, in cerrado Oxisol, with different base saturation. This experiment was conducted under greenhouse conditions, with a complete randomized design, in a 2x3x2 factorial scheme, consisting of 2 cultivars (tolerante and sensitive to Al), 3 treatments with mycorrhizal (inoculated with two species of AMF and without inoculation) and 3 levels of soil base saturation (30, 45 and 53 V%), with five replicates per treatment. The variables were: plant height, stem diameter, leaf area, shoot dry weight, root fresh weight, nitrate reductase activity, chlorophyll concentration, root colonization and number of AMF spores. Mycorrhizae isolates promoted greater response of coffee plants, in acid soil with high concentration of Al, but this response was observed for both cultivars when plants were colonized by G. margarita. The cultivars evaluated showed no differences in Al tolerance when non inoculated.

Oil is a hydrocarbon mixture of various sizes, including saturated and aromatic compounds. Natural gas is a mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons and its main component is methane. In our society, the great demand for these fuels requires fast extraction, transportation and refining, increasing the number of accidents that compromise the environment. Oil is a finite resource and it is necessary to reduce the problems related to the question concerning environmental pollution which has encouraged the search for alternative fuel sources in our country. So today we have two major biofuels: ethanol and biodiesel. Concurrently, many studies have been done directed toward the isolation of microorganisms capable of degrading petrochemical industrial wastes, most of them using as a source of isolation soil and water collected in a contaminated environment. Isolation from alternative substrates has emerged as a new strategy that has provided satisfactory results. In this work, we present the leaf-cutter ants of the Attini tribe as a source for the isolation of micro-fungi with the potential for hydrocarbon degradation. These insects have a social way of life and a highly specialized system of intra and interspecific communication, which is based on the recognition of individuals through volatile chemical compounds, the majority hydrocarbons, stored in their exoskeleton. The micro-environment exoskeleton of Attini ants (genus Atta) used in this work proved to be a rich source of microbial biodiversity, as other studies have found. The flotation isolation technique applied here allowed the achievement of 214 micro-fungi, 118 representatives of the dematiaceous fungi group and 96 hyaline filamentous fungi. They were submitted to toluene degradation tests and at least one strain of each genus presented good results, namely Teratosphaeria, Exophiala, Cladosporium, Penicillium, Aspergillus...

Leafcutter ants are considered pests in agriculture for their impact in human crops, as they behave utilizing foliar fragments to raise their simbiont fungi (Agaricales: Lepiotaceae) inside their nest. Recent studies have noticed that other fungi may be associated to ants inside their nests, for instance, fungi with melanized wall, known by “dematiaceous”. Historically, many black fungi have been noticed as fitopathogens of many plant cultures with economic importance, highlighting dematiaceous ecological behavior importance in this study. This investigation had the purpose of amplifying ecological knowledge of this fungi, isolating and identificating dematiaceous fungi found in Attini nests, having the intention of understanding plant pathogens dispersion by ants. In this work, 66 isolates were characterized in the following genus: Aspergillus, Penicillium, Paecilomyces, Oxyporus, Rhodotorula, Bipolaris, Curvularia, Fusarium, Giberella, Paraphaeosphaeria, and Cladosporium. The genus Bipolaris, Curvularia, Fusarium and Giberella are known for their opportunistic behaviour, with some published human infections in literature. Fusarium is a notorious fitopathogen, with wide number of descriptions and studies involving pathogenicity development, biochemistry and genetics. The isolates outline is of phyto – associated (phytopathogens, endophytic or epiphitic), fulfilling this work intention in alarming fungi capacity of dispersal by ants. The comprehension of phytopathogenical processes may be clarified based on the knowledge of oportunistics fungi that may utilize ants bodies for their own dispersal. The identification of isolates with capacity of infecting humans brings out public health issues.
