Competição entre megaspórios em milho

The experiments reported were started as early as 1933, when indications were found in class material that the factor for small pollen, spl, causes not only differences in the size of pollen grains and in the growth of pollen tubes, but also a competition between megaspores, as first observed by RENNER (1921) in Oenothera. Dr. P. C. MANGELSDORF, who had kindly furnished the original seeds, was informed and the final publication delayed untill his publication in 1940. A further delay was caused by other circunstances. The main reason for the differences of the results obtained by SINGLETON and MANGELSDORF (1940) and those reported here, seems to be the way the material was analysed. I applied methods of a detailed statistical analysis, while MANGELSDORF and SINGLETON analysed pooled data. 1) The data obtained on pollen tube competition indicate .that there is about 3-4% of crossing-over between the su and sp factors in chromosome IV. The elimination is not always complete, but from 0 to 10% of the sp pollen tubes may function, instead of the 50% expected without elimination. These results are, as a whole, in accordance with SINGLETON and MANGELSDORF's data. 2) Female elimination is weaker and transmission determined as between 16 to 49,5%, instead of 50% without competition, the values being calculated by a special formula. 3) The variability of female elimination is partially genotypical, partially phenotypical. The former was shown by the difference in the behavior of the two progenies tested, while the latter was very evident when comparing the upper and lower halves of ears. For some unknown physiological reason, the elimination is generally stronger in the upper than in the lower half of the ear. 4) The female elimination of the sp gene may be caused theoretically, by either of two processes: a simple lethal effect in the female gametophyte or a competition between megaspores. The former would lead not only to the abortion of the individual megaspores, but of the whole uniovulate ovary. In the case of the latter, the abortive megaspore carrying the gene sp will be substituted in each ovule by one of the Sp megaspores and no abortion of ovaries may be observed. My observations are completely in favor of the second explication: a) The ears were as a whole very well filled except for a few incomplete ears which always appear in artificial pollinations. b) Row arrangement was always very regular. c) The number of kernels on ears with elimination is not smaller than in normal ears, but is incidentally higher : with elimnation, in back-crosses 354 kernels and in selfed ears 390 kernels, without elimination 310 kernels per ear. d) There is no correlation between the intensity of elimination and the number of grains in individual ears; the coefficient; of linear correlation, equal to 0,24, is small and insignificant. e) Our results are in complete disagreement whit those reported by SINGLETON and MANGELSDORF (1940). Since these authors present only pooled date, a complete and detailed analysis which may explain the cause of these divergences is impossible.

Crescilin (suplemento de penicilina G procaína cristalina) na alimentação de leitões

The A. studied the use of "crescilin", a residual byproduct of penicillin manufacture. It has been recommended the proportion of 1 per cent and proclaimed to supply 400,000 U. O. per kg. The results obtained permited to conclude that 1 per cent of crescilin did not increase the growth of pigs.

Influência da adubação foliar com NPK, na cultura algodoeira (G. hirsutum L. var. IAC-12), sobre a qualidade da fibra e da semente

Aplicações de fertilizantes por via foliar e ao solo foram comparados na cultura algodoeira, utilizando-se a variedade IAC-12, com a finalidade de se estudar uma influência sobre alguns caracteres físicos da fibra e da semente. Tanto na adubação ao solo, como na foliar, foram utilizados como fonte de nitrogênio, a uréia (46%N), como fonte de fósforo, o superfosfato concentrado (45% P2O2) e como fonte de potássio, o cloreto de potássio (60% K2O). Os resultados obtidos mostram que entre as características físicas da análise da fibra, encontrou-se um efeito positivo no comprimento da fibra, resistência da fibra, resistência do fio e maior peso de semente (índice de semente) quando o cloreto de potássio foi aplicado por via foliar. Quanto à uniformidade da fibra e ao índice de finura, não houve influência da adubação foliar com nenhum dos três elementos. Nestes casos, a adubação ao solo, proporcionou melhores resultados. Deve-se ressaltar que com a dose mais alta de fósforo (60 kg de P2O5/ha), o valor do índice de finura foi maior. O adubo nitrogenado na dose de 40 kg de N/ha, influenciou na resistência da fibra (Pressley).
