Oilseeds are a high-value natural resource, due to its use as a substitute for petroleum. However, the storage time can reduce seed viability and oil quality. Therefore, scientific efforts have been made to provide a increment of storage time, germination rates and plant establishment of high-value oilseeds. The seedling establishment depends of the plant pass over the functional transition stage, characterized by a metabolic change from heterotrophic condition to autotrophic one. The storage oil mobilization is performed by β-oxidation process and the glyoxylate cycle. Also, the functional transition involves acclimation to photosynthetic condition, which generally includes the participation of antioxidant system and the reactive oxygen species, the latter are produced in various reactions of primary and secondary metabolism. In the present study, Catalase was inhibited during the functional transition of sunflower and safflower, after were performed many analyzes to elucidate the effects caused on the SOD and APX antioxidant systems. Also, were checked the changes in expression pattern of the glyoxylate cycle enzymes markers, ICL and MLS. It was observed that after CAT inhibition, the SOD and APX antioxidant systems allow the seedling establishment. Besides, was verified that both oilseeds can be accelerate the reverse mobilization and the photosynthetic establishment when Catalase activity has dramatically decreased

Sunflower is an annual dicotyledonous plant, herbaceous, erect and native of North America. It is thermo- and photo-insensitive, hence, can be grown round the year in sub-tropical and tropical countries. Only two spp. H. annuus and H. tuberosum are cultivated for food, remaining spp. are ornamentals, weeds and wild plants. However, H. annuus is allelopathic and inhibit the growth and development of other plants thus reducing their productivity. Much information is available about the allelopathic effects of sunflower crop on following crops in crop rotations. Although it is harmful to all crops, but, is less harmful to crops of Graminae family than other families. It seems that the harmful effects of sunflower in crop rotations are due to release and accumulation of root exudates during crop growth in soil. Soil incorporation of its fresh (green manure) or dry biomass in soil is inhibitory to both crops and weed spp. Several allelochemicals have been characterized from the H. annuus, which inhibit the seed germination and seedling growth of A. albus, A. viridis, Agropyron repens (Elymus repens), Ambrosia artemsiifolia, Avena fatua, Celosia crustata, Chenopodium album, Chloris barbara, Cynodon dactylon, D. sanguinalis, Dactyloctenium ageyptium, Digitaria ciliaris, Echinochloa crus-galli, Flaveria australasica, Parthenium hysterophorus, Portulaca oleracea, Sida spinosa, Trianthema portulacastrum, Veronica perisca the inhibitory effects of this crop may be used for weed management with less herbicides for sustainable agriculture.

The development of research that aim to reduce or even eliminate the environmental impacts provided by anthropogenic actions. One of these main action is the discard of industrial waste in the biotic compartments such as soil, water and air, gained more space in academic settings and in private. A technique of phytoremediation involving the use of plants (trees, shrubs, creepers and aquatic) and their associated microorganisms in order to remove, degrade or isolate toxic substances to the environment. This study aimed to evaluate the potential for phytoremediation of castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) and sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.), wild crops suitable region of Rio Grande do Norte, to reduce concentrations of lead and toluene present in synthetic wastewater that simulate the characteristics of treated water production originated in the petrochemical Guamaré. The experiment was accomplished in randomized blocks in four replicates. Seeds of BRS Energy for the development of seedlings of castor beans and sunflower for Catissol 01, both provided by EMPARN (Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária do Rio Grande do Norte) were used. Lead concentrations tested were 250, 500 and 1000 mg/L called T2, T3 and T4, respectively, for toluene the concentrations used were 125, 256 and 501 μg/L, called T5, T6 and T7, respectively. The data for removal of lead in relation to sewage systems applied in castor bean and sunflower were 43.89 and 51.85% (T2), 73.60 and 73.74% (T3) and 85.66 and 87.80 % (T4), respectively, and toluene were approximately 52.12 and 25.54% (T5), 55.10 and 58.05% (T6) and 79.77 and 74.76% (T7) for castor and sunflower seeds, respectively. From the data obtained, it can be deduce that mechanisms involved in reducing the contaminants were of phytoextraction, in relation to lead and phytodegradation for toluene. However, it can be concluded that the castor bean and sunflower crops can be used in exhaust after-treatment of industrial effluents that have this type of contaminant

Microporous materials zeolite type Beta and mesoporous type MCM-41 and AlMCM-41 were synthesized hydrothermally and characterized by methods of X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, surface acidity, nitrogen adsorption, thermal analysis TG / DTG. Also we performed a kinetic study of sunflower oil on micro and mesoporous catalysts. The microporous material zeolite beta showed a lower crystallinity due to the existence of smaller crystals and a larger number of structural defects. As for the mesoporous materials MCM-41 and AlMCM-41 samples showed formation of hexagonal one-dimensional structure. The study of kinetic behavior of sunflower oil with zeolite beta catalysts, AlMCM-41 and MCM-41 showed a lower activation energy in front of the energy of pure sunflower oil, mainly zeolite beta. In the thermal cracking and thermocatalytic of sunflower oil were obtained two liquid fractions containing an aqueous phase and another organic - organic liquid fraction (FLO). The FLO first collected in both the thermal cracking as the thermocatalytic, showed very high level of acidity, performed characterizations of physicochemical properties of the second fraction in accordance with the specifications of the ANP. The second FLO thermocatalytic collected in cracking of sunflower oil presented results in the range of diesel oil, introducing himself as a promising alternative for use as biofuel liquid similar to diesel, either instead or mixed with it

O efeito de doses crescentes de nitrogênio, fósforo e potássio, bem como de suas interações, no desenvolvimento de plantas de girassol, variedade Uruguai, foi estudado através de um experimento em vasos, como solo LVa, em Botucatu, SP. O nitrogênio e o fósforo, tanto isoladamente como em combinações influíram decisivamente nos parâmetros estudados, a saber, altura, numero de folhas, pesos de matéria seca e matéria verde das diferentes partes da planta. A influência do potássio foi relativamente pequena e verificada nos pesos de matéria seca do caule e de matéria seca da parte aérea total das plantas e no peso da água dos limbos foliares; esta influência foi constatada apenas quando em presença da dose mais alta de fósforo (166 ppm de P).

Os processos de decomposição dos resíduos sólidos resultam em uma importante fonte de poluente tóxico, o percolado, usualmente denominado de chorume, podendo causar graves impactos ambientais em ecossistemas vizinhos, se não for drenado e tratado adequadamente. No tratamento eletro­tico de efluentes aquosos, os poluentes sofrem degradação oxidativa. Visando o tratamento do percolado de aterro sanitário, foram analisados os parâmetros de pH, temperatura, DQO, condutividade, amônia e absorbância, utilizando-se de uma densidade de corrente de 125 mA.cm-2. As regas na espécie Helianthus annuus L., girassol da família Asteraceae, foram realizadas durante 95 dias com 11 tratamentos do percolado bruto e tratado em concentrações de 25, 50, 75 e 100% de percolado com a adição de Na2SO4, esta última concentração também sem adição de Na2SO4, a fim de avaliar a sobrevivência e o crescimento dessa espécie. Ao final do experimento, os valores de crescimento mais expressivos foram para o percolado 100% sem Na2SO4 mostrando que: a altura total obteve uma diferença em 27% menor no tratado; o diâmetro da base do caule mostrou uma diferença 45% menor do tratado em relação ao bruto; o número de folhas foi de 65% menor e área foliar de 51% menor do tratado em relação ao bruto, indicando que mesmo em crescimento o Grupo Tratado permaneceu menor durante a maioria das medidas das variáveis biométricas do girassol BRS 323. Todos os vasos regados com chorume tratado tiveram uma redução no peso seco das partes aéreas, chegando a uma redução média de 72% na concentração 100% de chorume sem a adição de Na2SO4

El topinambur pertenece a la familia de las Asteráceas, es una especie originaria de América del Norte, de la que fundamentalmente se aprovechan sus tubérculos; tiene gran potencial como alimento, materia prima para productos industriales y producción de biocombustibles. En Argentina no hay cultivares de topinambur registrados. Sin embargo hay documentación y testimonios del ingreso de distintas variedades al país a principios del siglo XX. El objetivo de esta tesis fue caracterizar el germoplasma de topinambur que se cultiva, a pequeña escala, en distintas regiones de la Argentina. Se formó una colección de trabajo con introducciones provenientes de 5 provincias del país (Río Negro, Chubut, Buenos Aires, Mendoza y Córdoba), y se condujeron ensayos experimentales en dos ambientes de la provincia de Mendoza. Se evaluaron caracteres morfo³gicos (altura de plantas, dimensiones y ángulo de inserción de hojas, tamaño de tubérculos), feno³gicos (emergencia, inicio, fin y duración de floración, senescencia del cultivo) y rendimiento. Se detectaron diferencias morfo³gicas que permitieron agrupar a las introducciones en dos grupos, correspondiendo uno a introducciones de tubérculos rojos y el otro a introducciones de tubérculos blancos. Se valoró la aptitud hortícola de las introducciones mediante evaluación sensorial; se realizó una prueba de preferencia y percepción de distintos aspectos de la hortaliza (color, olor, sabor y textura), consumida cruda. El nivel de aceptación general de la hortaliza fue bueno. Se evaluó el potencial industrial (obtención de inulina y producción de etanol). Se determinó por HPLC el contenido de inulina de cada introducción, que varió de 18.07 a 22.95 % y se estimó el potencial para producir etanol a partir de los hidratos de carbono fermentables de los tubérculos, que llegó a 4.934 litros por ha, aunque sin diferencias entre introducciones.

Helianthus tuberosus L. presenta potencial para producir etanol, sustituto de la nafta, y que deberá incorporarse a la misma en un 5% a partir del 2010 en Argentina. Hay antecedentes que señalan que a partir de 50 toneladas de tubérculos pueden obtenerse 4500 l de etanol. En este trabajo se comparó el rendimiento de dos variedades de topinambur regado con agua residual urbana o cloacal (AC) y agua subterránea (AS). El ensayo se realizó en la planta de tratamiento de agua cloacal de Obras Sanitarias Mendoza en el Departamento Tunuyán (33°32’89’’ S y 69°00’80’’ O), Mendoza, Argentina. El potencial para producir bioetanol se estimó a partir de la cantidad de hidratos de carbono fermentables en los tubérculos. El rendimiento de tubérculos presentó diferencias entre los tratamientos de riego, siendo de 177750 kg/ha en AC y de 144000 kg/ha en AS. La estimación del potencial para producir etanol generó un valor de 15000 l de alcohol en las parcelas regadas con AC y 13000 l en las regadas con AS. Para obtener 1 l de alcohol a partir de los tubérculos serían necesarios alrededor de 11 kg, relacionado con un valor de sólidos solubles de 16% en los mismos.
