Crescimento de mudas de Gonçalo-Alves (Astronium fraxinifolium) sob diferentes fontes e doses de nitrogênio

A degradação do cerrado e a perda de sua biodiversidade demandam a revegetação de áreas desse bioma, onde existem espécies com potencial de uso econômico e ambiental pouco conhecidos. Este trabalho teve o objetivo de avaliar o efeito de diferentes fontes e doses de nitrogênio sobre o crescimento de mudas de Gonçalo-Alves (Astronium fraxinifolium), espécie arbórea nativa do cerrado ameaçada de extinção. O experimento foi realizado em estufa na UNESP/Campus de Ilha Solteira. O solo utilizado (Latossolo Vermelho) foi coletado na profundidade de 0,0 a 0,20 m, em Selvíria (MS). As fontes de nitrogênio utilizadas ((NH4)2SO4, NH4NO3 e Ca(NO3)2) foram aplicadas nas doses de 0; 50; 100; 150 e 200 mg dm-3. O N aplicado na forma de Ca(NO3)2 apresentou melhor resultado para o solo utilizado. O crescimento das mudas de Gonçalo-Alves não foi influenciado pelas diferentes fontes de N, mas respondeu às doses. A altura da planta, o diâmetro do coleto, o teor de clorofila foliar, o peso da matéria fresca e seca da parte aérea e do sistema radicular, o peso seco total, bem como o IQD e a razão entre o peso da matéria seca da parte aérea e do sistema radicular, apresentaram valor máximo para doses que variaram de 59,0 a 72,5 mg dm-3 de N, permitindo sugerir a dose de 72,5 mg dm-3 de N como suficiente para o crescimento satisfatório de mudas de Gonçalo-Alves.

Uma nova espécie de Thoropa da Serra do Cipó, Minas Gerais, Brasil (Amphibia, Leptodactylidae)

Thoropa megatympanum, sp. n., is described from the Serra do Cipó, Minas Gerais, Southeastern Brasil. The new species is related to T. miliaris (Spix), from which it is readily distinguished by its smaller size, broader head, larger tympanum, shorter legs, and dorsal pattern mottled. The eggs and the tadpole are also described.

Uma nova espécie de Crossodactylus da Serra do Cipó, Minas Gerais, Brasil (Amphibia, Leptodactylidae)

Crossodactylus bokermanni, sp. n., is described from Serra do Cipó, Minas Gerais, Southeastern Brasil. The new species is characterized by the small size (20-27 mm), slender build, long legs, narrow head, long and acuminate snout, rounded but fairly defined canthus rostralis, and small tympanum. Also, notes on its habits are made and its tadpole is described.

Variabilidade espacial da textura de um argissolo vermelho amarelo sob cultivo de pastagem e vegetação nativa

The study of the spatial variability of soil attributes under different crop helps the study of changes due the management. This research was carried out to determine spatial variability the particle-size distribution, using of the classic statistic and geostatistics, of a soil cultivated with pasture and native vegetation. Soil samples were collected in the layer 0-0.20m, at the crossing points of a regular grid with 10m-intervals, summing up 64 samples points in each area. In the pasture area the fractions of coarse and total sand presented larger mean values in relation to the native vegetation, and negative correlation with the altitude of the points samples in the two areas. All of the fractions presented moderate to high spatial dependence in the two areas and with the defined still, with exception of the fine sand and the silt in the pasture. Much of this variability occurs as a function of water erosion.

Regeneração da vegetação arbórea nativa no sub-bosque de um povoamento de Eucalyptus saligna Smith. Localizado no Estado de São Paulo

This study evaluate the native species naturally regenerating in Eucalyptus saligna stand understory. This stand is located at Itatinga Experimental Station, of the Forest Sciences Department (ESALQ/USP). The experimental area encompasses two sites separated from each other around 250 m, differing 30 m in altitude. These two sites are different mainly in land slope and soil fertility and soil hydric retention capacity. Eight permanent plots of 625 m2 in each site were randomly sampled. The woody species Individuals with height equal or bigger than 1,5 m and the Eucalyptus saligna coppicings were surveyed in each plot. A total of 107 species were Identified and 7 species were common to both sites, distributed into 72 genera and 34 families. Based upon the results It is possible to conclude that the Eucalyptus saligna trees do not preclude the natural regeneration of the native species in the stand understory, however the floristic structure of the community is also influenced by edaphic factors and vicinity of seed sources.

Influência do alecrim (Rosmarinus officinallis L.) na atividade de água e oxidação lipídica de peixes de uma espécie de tilápia (Oreochromis ssp-var. vermelha Flórida) submetidos à salga

Salting have been a very utilized fish conservation method, however only in the last years the basic mechanism involved in salting fish has been understood. The objectives of this study were determine the addition in brine salt of rosemary leaves, rosemary extracts and tocopherol, and your action in the followed parameters: water activity (Aw), moisture, ash, salt content and TBARS. The results showed that the addition of antioxidants was difficulted the salt absorption, however didn't have differences between rosemary or tocopherol use. In the salting time of 3 hours the values of Aw and salt levels, was respectively: 0.77±0.01 and 14.42±1.69. for control treatment; 0.85±0.02 and 9.09±1.39for rosemary filtrate; 0.78±0.03 and 10.63±0.69 rosemary without filtrating and 0.85±0.02 and 11.96±1.78 tocopherol, showed that didn't grow indigenous bacterias. Lipid oxidation was evaluated by TBARS and the results showed the oxidative effect of salt and the pro oxidant effects of alls antioxidants used in brine salting.

Estruturas secretoras de Pavonia alnifolia (Malvaceae), uma espécie ameaçada de extinção

Malvaceae shows a rich morphological diversity of secretory structures, which are of great ecological and taxonomical relevance. Nonetheless, until the present moment, studies on the secretory structures of the studied species were not found. Pavonia alnifolia A.St.-Hil. is endangered species of extinction with restricted distribution within the restingas of Rio the Janeiro and Espírito Santo, Brazil. The species were collected from the former and usual techniques on plant anatomy and histochemistry were performed. Anatomical and histochemical studies of the secretory structures of Pavonia alnifolia are showed in this work. The presence of external and internal secretory structures of mucilage in many organs, idioblasts of phenolic and lipid substances and floral nectaries what is a very important adaptative survival mechanism of the species in the restinga environment. The secretion produced by nectaries is envolved with maintenance of interations with visiting insects, what constitutes a good model to experimental studies with an ecological approach.
