Amapá amargo (Parahancornia fasciculata (Poir.) Benoist) produz um látex, que se presume ter propriedades medicinais, pois é usado no tratamento da malária, problemas pulmonares, gastrite, e como um agente de cura. Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar estrutural e histoquimicamente os locais de produção e/ou acumúlo de compostos biologicamente ativos, bem como realizar o doseamento de flavonóides presentes no limbo do amapá amargo. Para a análise estrutural e histoquímica foram utilizados protocolos padrão em anatomia vegetal. Considerando que, para o doseamento de flavonóides utilizou-se a espectrometria de absorção na região ultravioleta-visível. O sistema secretor das folhas de amapá amargo é constituído de idioblastos secretores e laticíferos ramificados. Os testes histoquímicos revelaram diferentes tipos de substâncias químicas nos protoplastos celulares de idioblastos e laticíferos. Propriedades farmacológicas do látex de amapa amargo podem ser atribuídas à dois compostos químicos (flavonoides e alcaloides) encontrados neste estudo, ambos estão presentes em idioblastos e laticíferos.

A plasticidade ecológica observada em plantas que ocupam diferentes formações vegetais é frequentemente acompanhada por variações morfológicas, sendo a folha o órgão vegetativo com a maior variação estrutural. Diante disso, cinco espécies de Polygala L. ocorrentes em restinga e cerrado do Estado de São Paulo tiveram a anatomia da folha analisada com o objetivo de efetuar um inventário dos seus principais caracteres e descrever sua estrutura, com o propósito de compará-las, e de avaliar se é possível evidenciar padrões estruturais comuns às condições ecológicas de ambas as formações vegetacionais. As espécies pesquisadas foram: P. cyparissias A.St. –Hil. & Moq., P. laureola A.St.-Hil. & Moq., P. paniculata L., encontradas em restinga; P. angulata DC. e P. violacea Aubl. emend. Marques, que ocorrem em campo cerrado e em margem de cerradão, respectivamente. A região mediana da lâmina foliar e a região proximal do pecíolo de cada folha foram processadas segundo as técnicas usuais para microscopia eletrônica de varredura e de luz. Os resultados obtidos evidenciam dois padrões estruturais comuns às espécies procedentes das formações de restinga e cerrado: características mesomórficas são observadas em P. laureola, P. paniculata e P. violacea, e xeromórficas em P. cyparissias e P. angulata.

The experiment was carried out to evaluate the patterns of defoliation in plants of various heights in the same pasture of Brachiaria decumbens cv. Basilisk under continuous stocking with cattle. Four plant heights were evaluated (10, 20, 30 and 40 cm) in the same managed sward, with mean height equal to 25 cm. A randomized blocks design was used, with two replications. Defoliation frequency increased linearly along with plant height in the same pasture. Defoliation intensity, number of defoliations in leaf blade and percentage of leaf blade grazed per tiller also increased linearly along with plant height. The defoliation interval decreased linearly according to plant height. The quadratic model was adequately fitted into grazing efficiency data, reaching the highest value (98%) at the sward site with 35 cm plants. The percentage variation in signal grass height showed a negative linear response with initial plant height. The structure of the pasture, characterized by the diversity in plant heights, is simultaneously the cause and consequence of the variability in defoliation patterns in individual tillers, which occur on the horizontal plane of the pasture.

Mentha piperita L. is an aromatic and medicinal species of the family Lamiaceae, known as mint or peppermint, and its leaves and branches produce essential oil rich in menthol. This study aimed to evaluate physiological indexes, macro- and micronutrients inthe shootsand essential oil of Mentha piperita L. grown in nutrient solution number 2 of Hoagland and Arnon (1950) with different N, P, K and Mg levels. Shoot length, dry mass of the different organs, total dry mass, leaf area, essential oil yield and composition, and macronutrient (N, P, K, Mg, Ca, S) and micronutrient (Mn, Cu, Fe, Zn) contents in the shoot were evaluated. Plants treated with 65%N/50%P/25%K/100%Mg had a tendency towards longer shoot, greaterroot and leaf blade dry masses, higher essential oil yield, higher menthol levels and lower menthone levels. The results showed that Mentha can be grown in nutrient solution by reducing 65% N, 50% P, 25% K and 100% Mg. This solution had better development compared to the other tested treatments. Therefore,we recommendMentha piperita L. to be grown with such nutrient levels.

Leaf area estimate may contribute to understand the relationships of interference among weeds and crops. The objective of this research was to obtain a mathematical equation to estimate the leaf area of Euphorbia heterophylla based on linear measures of the leaf blade. Correlation studies were carried out using the real leaf area and leaf length (C) and the maximum leaf width (L) of 200 leaf blades which were collected from several agroecosystems at Universidade Estadual Paulista in Jaboticabal, SP, Brazil. The evaluated statistic models were: linear Y = a + bx; simple linear Y = bx; geometric Y = ax b; and exponential Y = ab x. All of the evaluated models can be used for E. heterophylla leaf area estimation. The simple linear regression model is suggested using C*L and taking the linear coefficient equal to zero. Thus, an estimate of the leaf area of E. heterophylla can be obtained using the equation Af' = 0.6816*(C*L).

The objective of this study was to obtain a mathematical equation to estimate the leaf area of Panicum maximum using linear measures of leaf blade. Correlation studies were conducted involving the real leaf area (Sf), the main vein leaf length (C), and the maximum leaf width (L). The linear and geometric equations related to C provided good leaf area estimates. For practical reasons, the use of an equation involving only the C*L product is suggested. Thus, an estimate of P. maximum leaf area can be obtained by the equation Sf = 0.6058 (C*L), with the coefficient of determination R = 0.8586.

The periodic substitution of cotton cultivars for the farms can modify the levels of economic damages and control of pests, compromising the success in pest control. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of simulated defoliation levels in cotton cultivars actually used. The assay was carried out in experimental area of the Polo Apta Centro Norte, in Pindorama, Sao Paulo state. There were evaluated four defoliations levels (0%, 36.8%, 62.1% e 100%), done at a unique operation, in tree times (30, 60 and 90 days after plant emergence) and four cotton cultivars (IAC-25, DeltaOpal, Fibermax 966 and Fibermax 993). The defoliation was done with a scissor simulating the caterpillar damage. Evaluations included the number of open bolls, weight of one boll and 100 seeds, fiber percentage and productivity (kg ha(-1)). The defoliation negatively affected all components of agronomic traits, with the exception of percentage of fiber. The most damaging levels were 62.1 and 100% removal of the leaf blade. The period of higher susceptibility to defoliation occurs from 30 to 60 days after plant emergence.
