Raça de galinhas "piracicaba": II. "Pedigree" das aves puras para os caracteres pescoço pelado e plumagem preta

The pedigree of chickens homozygous for black plumage and naked and now obtained in the Poultry Department of the "Luiz de Queiroz" School of Agriculture, was traced in this paper. The animals will be used in the formation of the new local breed called "Piracicaba PPPP", (Pescoço Pelado Preta de Piracicaba), which we propose to start with selection of others morphological characters and mainly the economical ones: egg laying, early maturing and soft-meated chickens.

Raça em formação de galinhas de plumagem azul e ovos azuis - II. Teste de cruzamento

The data reported in this paper are in accordance with the hypothesis previously established (2) of the interaction of a main pair of alleles as controlling the inheritance of black, blue and blue-splashed plumage in chickens received from the State of Goias, Brazil. The black plumage is relatively uniform but the blue and blue splashed plumages indicate the action of other genes regulating the lack of uniformity.

Experiências de engorda de frangos II

This paper deals with an experiment to determine the optimum period (number of days) in fattening chickens. Thirty chickens R. I. R. were numbered, weighed and feeded in crate, with one standard ration (17% crude protein). The chickens were weighted every two days and the results obtained indicate the optimum is reached between 12 and 16 days of feeding. It was observed that after 16 days the weights stop or decrease progressively as showed by the Grafic I.

Estudos sôbre o quiabeiro II: efeitos da autofecundação e do cruzamento

The present work deals with the study of the effects of selfing and crossing in pures lines of okra inbred for five generations and the methods of breeding in this plant. This work is party of a large program of this Dept. to study heterosis in plants naturally self pollinated. The technic of selfing consists of tying with a string the floral bud before anthesis. To make controlled crosses, it is necessary to emasculate the flowers removing the anthers with small forceps, and to cover the flowers with a bag and wait for 1 or 2 days until the blooming. Also, the male parents are covered with paper bags prior to flowering. Finally, the pollen is brushed lightly over the stigma of the emasculated flowers and the females unit rebagged. The authors have tried without sucess the technic of soda fountain straw used for cotton. The treatments were: I) Fl of the cross pure-line x foreign variety (not improved by breeding). II) Fl of the cross pure-line x parental variety and III) pure-line 5 generations inbred. In order to compare the production of these three treatments, a randomized blocks with 4 replications was designed; since we had 6 families in each treatment, the total number was: 4 replications x 3 treatments x 6 families: = 72. Each familiy was planted in lines of 10 plants. Owing to the design devised, the present experiment corresponds to a split-plot. The analysis of variance of the number and the weight of the pods is given in tables 2 and 4, and shows the following: 1) The production expressed in both numbers and weights of the cross, - pure lines x foreign variety - was statistically smaller than the others treatments, i, e., the cross of pure-lines x parental variety and the pure-lines; 2) The production of the treatments pure-lines x parental variety and selfed purelines was the same. It was proved that the selfing do not produce harmful effects in okra, it was benefical, since after 5 inbred generations the production was the same when compared with Fl of the parental variety. Also, the methods of pure-lines are indicated to improve varieties of okra.

Estudos sôbre a alimentação mineral do cafeeiro. II: absorção do superfosfato radioativo pelo cafeeiro (Coffea arabica L., var. Bourbon Amarelo) em condições de campo

In order to find out the best way to supply phosphorus to coffee plants when growing in "terra roxa misturada", a red soil with a high fixing capacity, tagged superphosphate was applied by the following procedures: (1) topdressed in a circular strip around the trees; (2) placed in the bottom of a circular furrow 15 cm deep; (3) placed in a semicircular furrow also 15 cm deep; (4) sprayed directly to the leaves. In each case 150 gms. of ordinary superphosphate tagged with H3 P32 O4 to give 5 X 10(9) c.p.m. were given to the two and half year old coffee plants. It was found that for the several treatments of the total phosphorus in the leaves the following values, on a per cent basis, came from the applied superphosphates: (1) topdressed 10.2 per cent, (2) circular furrow 2.4 per cent, (3) semicircular furrow 1.7 per cent, (4) sprayed 38.0 per cent; one can see, then, that methods (2) and (3) commonly used by the coffee planters are a very inefficient way to supply phosphorus in this type of soil. The remarkable foliar absorption was checked twice: a water culture experiment was carried out, the radiophosphorus being supplied by brushing it in the upper and lower surfaces of a given leaf; radioactivity was detected all over the plant as a result both of absorption and translocation; on the other hand, leaves collected from the sprayed trees were radioautographed; the radioautographs showed the pattern of distribution of the P32 which indicates true absorption rather than a surface contamination. In another locality, an experiment was caried out with 8 year old plants growing in "arenito de Bauru" which is a sandy soil with much less phosphorus fixing capacity. In this experiment the aim was to compare absorption of tagged superphosphate by trees growin under mulch against plants not receiving this treatment, The uptake of phosphorus was the same for both sets of plants. In both field experiments soil samples down to 15 cm in the profile were collected and its 0.2NHC1 soluble phosphorus was counted; rather significant values were observed mainly in the upper 5 cm layers.

Contribuição ao estudo da aplicação do método da diagnose foliar ao algodoeiro (Grossypium hirsutum L., var. I. A. C. 817) II

This paper deal with one experiment carried out in order to study the correlation between petioles analysis and seed cotton yield. A 3X3X3 factorial with respect to N, P2 0(5) and K2 O was installed in a sandy soil with low potash content and medium amounts of total N and easily extractable P. Two kinds of petioles, newly mature were collected for analysis: those attached to fruit hearing branches, and petioles located on the stem; the first group is conventionally named "productive petioles"; The second one is called "not productive petioles". Petioles' sampling was done when the first blossoms appeared. Yield date showed a marked response to potash, both nitrogen and phosphorus having no effect. Very good correlation was found between petioles potash and yield. Both types of petioles samples were equally good indicators of the potash status of the plants. By mathematical treatment of the date it followes that the highed yield which was possible under experimental conditions, 1.562 kg of seed cotton per hectare would be reacher by using 128 kg of K2O per hectare. With this amount of potash supplied to the plants the following K levels would be expected in the petioles: "productive petioles" "not productive petioles" 1,93 % K 1,85 % K

Cinética da reação de redução de nitrato por actinomicetos isolados do solo II - Influência dos elementos minerais

Some strains of Actinomycetes showed variation in its activity to reduce nitrate to nitrite when the nutrient solution was modified in relation to the major elements. One of these strains incapable of !this reaction showed a strong activity in nutrient solution without K and little activity without P. Otherwise strains capable of reducing nitrate to nitrite had this capacity decreased in absence of each one of the following elements: K, P, Mg, e S. K showed to be the most important of them, followed by P, Mg e S. Without any of these elements the pH of the nutrient solution has to be increased from 5,5 to 6,5 for the strains capable to reduce nitrate to nitrite preserve its capacity. The time for the reaction is increased from 5 to 8 days and the amount of nitrite obtained is small.

Sombreamento dos cafèzais II: resultados do 4.° biênio (1959/1960)

This paper deals with data obtained in 1959 and 1960 in shaded and unshaded coffee plots at Piracicaba, São Paulo, Brazil. The results can be summarized as follows: a) the production, in shaded and unshaded plots, did not show differences statisticaly significant; b) the percentage of coffee berry borer infestation was higher in shaded plots as compared with unshaded ones; c) the percentage of green, ripened and dry fruits depends of the year and of the harvest time. In the same harvest time, both for shaded and for unshaded plots the percentages in the shaded plots were higher for green fruits and lesser for ripened and dry fruits; d) coffee fruits brought from the field in the harvest time yielding up in unshaded plots as compared with shaded ones; e) the relation grains/dry fruits was better in shaded plots.

Pulverização foliar em cafeeiro (Coffea arabica L.) II: aplicação de adubos potássicos

The uptake of potassium fertilizers, namely, KC1, K2S04 and KN03, by beans and coffee leaves was studied in the experiment described herein. The fertilizers were applied as leaf sprays at the rates of 2,25, 4,50 and 9,00 grams, of K20/tree split in 3 applications which were made every week; the proper amount of salts were dissolved in 1 liter of water with wetting agent. Fifteen days after the last application both beans and leaves were sampled for analysis. No leaf injury resulted from the potassium sprays. Leaf -K and bean -K was significantly raised as consequence of the foliar applications of the K- bearing salts.

Ocorrência das domácias nas rubiáceas - II

The author has studied the domatia appearing in the Rubiaceae family by examining 278 species distributed among 95 genera; and she has verified that 51 species belonging to 29 genera have domatia fitting following types according to the Chevalier's classification: in the "touffe de poils", "em pertuis" and " enpochette". Fourtheen species showed domatia that has chamber and outlet orifice. The others 29 species present domatia either as aglomerates-hair, clusters-hair or scattered hairs and variations of this types; eight species present domatia "em pochette". On Paurichiantha rubra (Benth.) Brem., Rondelettia purdiei Hook f., and Randia cladantha K. Schum the domatia also appear in the axils nervure of several orders; and also in Psychotria racemosa Aubl., they are located in the axil of the angle toward the leaf base. The author observed for the first time two types of domatia in the same leaf on Psychotria fortuita Standi, and on type of domatia, with hairs, that is formed by a fold on the blade on Chomelia tenuiflora Benth.

II : ocorrência de domácias em espécies e híbridos da família Vitaceae

Nêste trabalho, o segundo de uma série sôbre o assunto, apresenta os estudos feitos em 111 novas variedades híbridas IAC, pertencentes à família Vitaceae. Deste total, 53 revelam domácias as, quais se enquadram nos tipos: em "tufo de pêlos" e variações, e em "bolsas", segundo a classificação de CHEVALIER & CHESNAIS (1941). O material estudado constou de fôlhas não herborizadas, provenientes do Instituto Agronômico de Campinas - Secção de Viticultura. As fôlhas, ainda frescas, foram examinadas em ambas as faces, superior e inferior, anotando-se as particularidades relativas às domácias tais como: aspecto, localização, tamanho, forma, existência de pêlos, etc. Observou-se pequena variação nas domácias do tipo em "tufo de pêlos", os quais ora aparecem como "pêlos exparsos", ora como "aglomerado de pêlos" e ainda como "tufo de pêlos" propriamente dito. As domácias encontradas nos 53 híbridos, estão assim distribuídas: a) Domácias em "tufo de pêlos" e suas variações: 43 b) Domácias "em bolsas": 10 Os pêlos domaciais, podem ser claros ou escuros, lisos ou crespos. As domácias aparecem na face inferior do limbo, na axila das nervuras de primeira e segunda ordem e na confluência das nervuras com o pecíolo. Ocorrem, também, domácias na confluência das nervuras de diversas ordens.

II - Ocorrência das domácias nas angiospermas

Continuando as observações nas folhas de plantas de nossa riquíssima flora à procura de domácias, examinamos as folhas de cerca de 129 exemplares pertencentes a 49 famílias. Destas especies apenas 14 dentre 8 familias revelaram essas interessantes estruturas. As domácias foram registradas nas fôlhas de plantas de pequeno e grande porte, assim como trepadeiras. As folhas herborizadas, foram examinadas em ambas as faces, na axila das nervuras e também na sua junção com o pecíolo. Relacionamos, por ordem alfabética, as famílias cujas espécies apresentaram domácias, assim como os nomes das plantas, o tipo e localização da domácia na folha, etc., usando sempre a classificação de domácias proposta por CHEVALIER & CHESNAIS (1941). Os tipos de domácias encontrados distribuem-se entre as famílias da seguinte maneira: a) Domacias em "tufo de pêlos" - encontradas em plantas das seguintes famílias: Bignoniaceae, Compositae, Convolvulaceae, Leguminosae, Moraceae, Solanaceae, Proteaceae e Oleaceae. b) Domacias em "bolsas" - registradas na família Solanaceae.
