Resposta do feijoeiro a fertilizantes fosfatados na presença e ausência de calagem

Com o objetivo de verificar a resposta do feijoeiro (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) a fontes de fósforo, na presença e na ausência de calagem, instalou-se um experimento em casa de vegetação, utilizando-se uma amostra de solo Latossolo Vermelho-Amarelo Distrófico, textura argilosa, não cultivado, do município de Viçosa, MG, no período de fevereiro a abril de 1984. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualizado, sendo um fatorial 2 x 4, em nove repetições. Os tratamentos foram formados da seguinte combinação: 0 e 1 x necessidade de calagem, sem fósforo e com fósforo de três fontes: superfosfato triplo, termofosfato Yoorim e fosfato de Araxá. A colheita foi efetuada aos 45 dias após o plantio. Obtiveram-se o peso da parte aérea seca e o teor de fósforo acumulado. Pelos resultados obtidos, e nas condições em que este experimento foi conduzido, conclui-se que, na ausência de calagem, a melhor fonte fosfatada é o termofosfato, e na presença de calagem o efeito desta fonte é similar ao do superfosfato triplo.

Deficiência de Mn em soja, induzida por adubação potássica e calagem

Tanto a toxidez como a deficiência de Mn em soja (Glycine max (L.) Merrill), levam a um prejuízo na produtividade. Tem-se recomendado a calagem para superar os graves problemas de toxidez de Mn em soja, mas existem condições potenciais para ocorrer indução de deficiências de micronutrientes, inclusive o Mn. Com o objetivo de explorar esta possibilidade, a cultivar de soja Cristalina foi plantada em vasos, contendo dois Latossolos Vermelho- Escuro de textura média, na presença ou ausência de adubação potássica (50 ug/cm3), e calagem. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que a adubação potássica pode ter como consequência uma menor absorção de Mn pela soja, e quando associada à calagem (pH 6,5) pode levar à ocorrência de deficiência induzida de Mn, que se manifesta como clorose internerval nas folhas do terço superior da planta.

Efeito da calagem sobre a produção de matéria seca de três gramíneas forrageiras

A greenhouse investigation was carried out to study the effects of liming on the dry matter (DM) production of the grasses Brachiaria brizantha (Hoscht.) Stapf. cv. Marandu, Andropogon gayanus Kunth cv. Planaltina and Panicum maximum Jacq cv. Aruana, cultivated on a Dark-Red Latosol, medium texture. The liming levels were obtained through the addition of carbonates in a Ca:Mg ratio of 4:1, necessary to increase the degree of base saturation (V%) to the following values; 4% (control), 20%, 36%, 52%, 68% and 84%. During the experimental period (180 days), four cuts were done to determine the DM production. The results indicated that the DM production was increased (P<0,05) with the liming-levels increased to the three grasses. Panicum maximum cv. Aruana yielded the lower DM quantity, but it presented a better response to liming. The inverse was observed in relation to A. gayanus. The data allowed to conclude that the DM production increased by liming and when the V% level was lower than 50%, it will be increased to 70% for establishment.

Crescimento radicular e aéreo de cultivares de arroz de terras altas em função da calagem

This work aimed to evaluate root growth, shoot development and nutrient absorption efficiency by rice cultivars Caiapo and Maravilha as affected by lime application. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse, with treatments set up by Caiapo and Maravilha cultivars in combination with the base saturation (V%) of 10%, 40% and 70%. The experiment was in a randomized complete block design, with four replications. The number of tillers, root length, root dry matter, leaves and stems, leaf content and macronutrients absorption efficiency were evaluated. Comparing cultivars, Maravilha cultivar presented higher root dry weight, root length, number of stems, dry matter of stems and shoot than Caiapo cultivar, as well as accumulated more nutrients in the shoots. on the other hand, nutrient contents were higher in the cultivar Caiapo compared to Maravilha. Maravilha cultivar shows greater root and shoot growth while Caiapo shows higher nutrient absorption efficiency from the soil. The base saturation of 40% is the most effective for both cultivars.

Study of superficial properties of titanium treated by PIIID

Rugosidade superficial de ligas com alto conteúdo de cobre, em função do aquecimento acima da temperatura de fusão.

Being the surface roughness a fundamental property in the fit of the castings, it was determined the roughness of 5 high-copper casting alloys, according to the heating over their melting temperature. That way, the specimens made with smooth plastic in the shape of a rectangular plate, 2 mm x 7 mm x 11 mm were invested into a cristobalite investment. After heating and elimination on the plastic, the molds were filled by 3 g of molten alloy, casted in a electrical casting machine at the casting temperature at 25 degrees C and 50 degrees C overheating. The surface roughness was measured in a roughness analyser, Talysurf. As a result, it was verified that there is a variation of surface roughness among the alloys tested, and the heating of the alloys until 50 degrees C over the melting temperature does not interfere in the roughness.

Obtencao e interpretacao de dados de Reflexao Sismica Superficial (Rasa) - exemplos e aplicacoes

Successful application of shallow seismic reflection method is related directly to the ability of the ground to transmit high-frequency seismic energy from a seismic source. The dominant frequencies of reflection data are in the range of 50 to 100 Hz and depend on the surface materials and water table. A spread of geophones send the siemsic signal to be recorded on a 12, 24 or 48 channel portable seismograph, using a single high-frequency geophone per channel. Although it is possible to find seismographs with display and processing unities, it is also possible to transfer digitalized data to a personal computer to be processed and interpreted by using specific programs. Some results of two recent field studies to specify the underground structure in the tidal flats area of Baie St. Paul (Quebec-Canada) and in glacial terrains, in the Waterloo (Ontario-Canada) region. -from English summary

Efeito da época de colheita e da calagem no rendimento de sementes comercializáveis de amendoim cv. Botutatu

A field experiment was carried out to study the effects of liming and time of harvesting on peanut cv. Botutatu (Arachis hypogaea L.) seed yield and yield components in the period of July, 1991 to February, 1992, in São Manuel, State of São Paulo. The soil was a Dark Red Latosol (Hapludult, sandy loam), and the experimental design was a subplot replicated four times in completely randomized blocks. Lime levels (0.0 and 1.75 t/ha) were applied in the plots, and the subplots were nine weekly harvests, starting at 87 days after planting (DAP). There was no effect of lime on hulls or seed yield and on peanut yield components. The germination of seeds in hulls was incresead at each harvest and was lower at lime presence. The highest yield was observed at 129 DAP.

Extra̧ão de Macro e Micronutrientes Pela Parte Aérea de Erva-Doce EM Fuņão de Calagem e Aduba̧ão com Esterco de Cama de Frango

A greenhouse experiment was conducted in the Soil Science Department of the Botucatu College of Agricultural Sciences (UNESP), Brazil, using a Dark Red Latosol in 25 L pots. The soil was limed to 50 and 70% of base saturation; and doses 0, 10, 20, 30 and 40 t ha-1 of chicken manure were applied, in December of 1999. The experimental design was completely randomized blocks with a factorial arrangement 5x2, 10 treatments and three replications. This work was carried to evaluate leaf number, height plants, fresh and dry weight by aerial part of sweet fennel, and macronutrients and micronutrients removal. The organic fertilization affected the accumulation of N, P, K, S, B and Mn; liming affected the nutrient uptake, except for the Ca, Mg, S and Fe; the interaction of factors affected K, Mg and Mn.
