Estádio de Desenvolvimento do Milho. 1. Efeito sobre a Produção, Composição da Planta e Qualidade da Silagem

The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of maturity on the production, stalk/leaf/ear relationship, chemical composition, and quality of corn silage (Zen mays, L.). Four harvests were made from the early milk (23.49% DM) to the semi-hard dough stage. (30.70%DM). After these evaluations, the corn was ensiled in 200 liter metal drums. After six months of storage, the quality of the silages was determined. The corn dry matter production was higher at the dough and semi-hard dough stages (9866 and 9896 t/ha, respectively) than in the early milk stage (7460 t/ha). The ears with the maturity showed a increase in dry matter (20.93 to 43.51%), acid detergent fiber decrease (32.46 to 18.62%), and maintainance of the crude protein content (average = 8.27%). The stalks and leaves decreased from 33.31 to 27.18% and from 34.17 to 23.66%, respectively, while the ears increased from 32.52 to 49.16% from the early milk to the semi-hard dough stages. All experimental silages attained good quality, independent of corn development stages. The corn can be ensiled from the early milk and soft dough stages without a decrease in silage quality, but the restricting factor under those conditions was a lower dry matter content (24.35 and 28.65%, respectively).

Brosimum gaudichaudii Trecul (Moraceae): Da planta ao medicamento

The chemical, biological, pharmacological and toxicological study of plants used in medical treatments by different societies around the world has been intensifying over the years, primarily in the search for new herbal, homeopathic or even allopathic medicines. Motivated by this interest, we are investigating some Brazilian plant species, among them a tree, Brosimum gaudichaudii Trecul (Moraceae), found in Brazil's savannah-like prairies and scrub-forest (cerrado) and mesophytic forest. Several extracts have been made and separated into fractions and some compounds have been isolated - principally coumarins - and their respective structures analyzed by spectrophotometric and other methods. By collaborating with researchers in other fields, we have been able to carry out various bioassays and even basic clinical tests, namely: determination of anti-helminthic, anti-microbial, photosensitizing, anticancer and mutagenic activities, toxicological and pathogenic studies, with the aim of discovering a genuinely Brazilian herbal or homeopathic medicine.
