Diversidade genética em coleções amazônicas de germoplasma de cupuaçuzeiro [Theobroma grandiflorum (Willd. ex Spreng.) Schum.]

This study aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity and relatedness of 24 accessions of Theobroma grandiflorum, originating from three units of Embrapa, aiming their use as parents in hybridization specie programs. The genetic markers used were heterologous microsatellite loci developed for cocoa. In the population studied 45 alleles were found. The effective average number of alleles per locus (2.33) was less than the average number of alleles per locus (3.21), indicating that many alleles have low frequency. The observed heterozygosity at polymorphic loci ranged from 0.33 to 1.00 with a mean of 0.54 and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.48 to 0.76 with a mean of 0.54. The fixation index medium between loci (0.003) was not significantly different from zero. The estimate of relatedness between pairs of individuals indicates that some may be relatives, including half-brothers and clones. The results suggest that the accesses of T. grandiflorum analyzed contain a moderate level of genetic diversity and absence of inbreeding and therefore great potential for use in breeding programs.

Variação genética para caracteres silviculturais em progênies de polinização aberta de Astronium graveolens Jacq. (Anacardiaceae)

This study has investigated the genetic variation for silvicultural traits in an open-pollinated progeny test of Astronium graveolens Jacq., established at Luiz Antônio Experimental Station (State of São Paulo, Brazil). The trial was planted in a random block experimental design, containing 23 families, six replications and five plants per plot. The traits measured were diameter at breast height (DBH), total height and stem form. The assessments were taken at the age of 19 years. Significant differences were not detected by the analysis of variance, suggesting that the genetic variation was low, as well as the probability to raising genetic gains through selection among progenies. The coefficient of genetic variation was moderate for the traits height (8.2%) and DBH (21.2%) and low to stem form (4.0%). However, the average coefficient of heritability among progenies was low for all studied traits (ranging from 0.02 to 0.15), confirming the low probability of genetic improvement of this population by selection among progenies.

Pigmentos fotossintéticos e índice spad como descritores de intensidade do estresse por deficiência hídrica em cana-de-açúcar

The objective of this study was to evaluate the responses of sugar cane subject to water stress by photosynthetic pigments (chlorophylls a, b, total a + b, ratio chlorophylls a/b and carotenoids) and verify the use of SPAD index as a cultivar differentiation tool. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse, where four cultivars (IACSP95-5000, RB835054, RB928064 and SP80-3280) were grown in pots. After 65 days of planting, two treatments were implemented, i.e., with no stress (-D) and with water stress (D +). Cultivars of sugar cane respond differently in relation to photosynthetic pigments when subjected to water deficit. Cultivars IACSP95-5000 and RB928064 have less effect of drought, that is attributed to the ability of maintaining the chlorophyll and carotenoid content, as well as higher SPAD index values under this condition. Water stress affects with more intensity the cultivars RB835054 and SP80-3280 due to higher reductions in photosynthetic pigments and SPAD index. SPAD index is correlated with chlorophyll and carotenoid content in sugar cane and can be used as a technique for selecting tolerant cultivars to drought in breeding programs.
