The State of Mato Grosso do Sul is in full growth of this sector, thus the concern about harvesting systems are being studied, and these systems may influence the weed community interference of weeds in the cane sugar. The integrated management tool attached to geostatistics is to avoid productivity losses due to weed interference. The objective of this work was to study the spatial variability of the seed bank of weeds depending on the system for collecting cane sugar (raw and burning). The experiment was conducted in the area of commercial cultivation of the plant ETH Bioenergy S/A Eldorado Unity. Soil samples were taken with auger layer from 0.00 to 0.40 m depth in both cropping systems. The experimental plot was composed by a mesh consisting of 50 points georeferenced with irregular distances. Soil samples were taken to the greenhouse for germination. The number of weed species was analyzed using descriptive statistics and geostatistical techniques. The seeds of B. pilosa, dicots, bitter grass, nutsedge, dayflower monocots and spatial dependence of the seed bank in the collection system with burning of cane sugar. For the system of harvest only the raw sedge species present spatial dependence of distribution in the seed bank. In the harvest green cane enable the mapping of these species through the kriging maps produced, spot applications of herbicides in integrated management of Cyperus rotundus.

Com o objetivo de avaliar a incidência populacional de plantas daninhas em diferentes manejos de implantação de Stylosanthes guianensis cv. Campo Grande em pastagem de Brachiaria decumbens. Realizou-se um experimento na AgênciaPaulista de Tecnologia dos AgronegóciosExtremo Oeste no município de Andradina/SP emfevereiro de 2011. Utilizou-se o delineamento experimental em blocos ao acaso em esquema de parcelas subdivididas, com quatro repetições e compostos por sete tratamentos (parcelas principais) e duas testemunhas: T1=Plantio direto com dessecação ½ dose de glifosato; T2=Plantio direto sem dessecação; T3=Plantio direto com escarificação do solo; T4=GradagemRome + Plantio direto; T5=Sistema convencional; T6=Brachiaria decumbens e T7= Estilosantes Campo Grande (dessecação com glifosato). Foi avaliado a massa seca de espécies infestantes em diferentes manejos de implantação de Estilosantes Campo Grande, aos 15 dias após semeadura. Os resultados foram submetidos à ANOVA para comparação múltipla de médias, a 5% de significância pelo teste de Tukey. Os T2, T3 e T6 apresentaram uma maior massa seca de espécies infestantes, foram diferentes estatisticamente dos demais (P<0,05), porém não houve diferença significativa entre eles (P>0,05). A massa seca das monocotiledôneas é praticamente toda de Brachiaria decumbens e das dicotiledôneas foi insignificante.

La formulación de cebos para el control de hormigas cortadoras es conveniente por su mayor practicidad y economía. En el proceso de desarrollo de hormiguicidas con sustancias naturales, se probaron extractos de cítricos como atrayentes para cebos, sobre obreras de Acromyrmex lundi, en dos ensayos: en laboratorio y en campo. Con extractos de naranja dulce, pomelo rosado, mandarina y naranja amarga se impregnaron discos de papel de filtro. Se ofrecieron a las hormigas en un diseño de bloques al azar (DBA) con libre elección. En laboratorio, en hormiguero artificial, se presentaron grupos de 20 discos con los tratamientos. Se registró el número de discos remanentes y el tiempo transcurrido hasta la remoción del primer disco. En campo, el bloque correspondió a cada hormiguero y se dispusieron grupos de 10 discos en cada senda, registrándose los mismos parámetros. El extracto de mandarina resultó preferido en laboratorio según la prueba de Tukey. En campo, fue preferido el extracto de pomelo. Los extractos utilizados atrajeron a las obreras de A. lundi, podadoras en dicotiledóneas; se observó respuesta diferencial para las distintas especies pero el ordenamiento en la preferencia no fue consistente para los ensayos en condiciones artificiales y de campo.

The lesser rhea (family Rheidae) is a flightless large bird of South America, threatened due to habitat loss, hunting and egg collecting, with special concern in Northern Patagonia. Diet and food availability were estimated throughout the year by micro-histological analysis and point-quadrat transects in a landscape inside and another outside the Payunia Reserve, the northernmost part of the Rhea pennata pennata distribution. Significant differences were detected by Kruskall-Wallis ANOVA, food selection by Chi-square test and Bailey’s confidence interval. A strong food selection characterized the diet of lesser rheas, dominated by leaves of shrubs and forbs, complemented by dicot seeds and a few insects. This agrees with the documented low dietary overlap with other herbivores in Payunia. Dietary changes agree with the expected from the selective quality hypothesis. Food availability was better inside than outside the protected area, with probable conservation effects for lesser rheas. Seeds, forbs and soft grasses could be for lesser rheas some key food resources to survive during unfavorable seasons in arid environments without "mallines", as Payunia. Shrubby patches, with high availability of preferred food items (tall shrubs and forbs), stood out as key habitats. Therefore, avoiding fire and woody plant removal is crucial for the conservation of lesser rheas in the northern of its range.

El ganado vacuno consume principalmente plantas de gramíneas, lo que provoca una reducción en la abundancia de sus semillas tanto en pie como en el banco del suelo. Estas semillas son el principal alimento de las aves granívoras en el desierto del Monte central, quienes las prefieren por encima de las herbáceas dicotiledóneas. Se evaluó si el pastoreo genera cambios en la dieta de cinco especies de aves granívoras: Saltatricula multicolor, Diuca diuca, Poospiza torquata, Catamenia analis y Zonotrichia capensis (la cual posee tres subespecies con diferente estatus de residencia). Durante el invierno de 2014 se capturaron aves en algarrobales no pastoreados dentro de la Reserva de Biósfera de Ñacuñán (Mendoza) y en dos estancias aledañas con distinto grado de pastoreo. Se obtuvieron muestras de contenido estomacal por medio de la técnica de lavaje y evacuación del tracto digestivo. Las muestras fueron analizadas cuantificando y clasificando las distintas semillas presentes. Zonotrichia capensis y P. torquata se comportaron como especies plásticas incorporando una mayor cantidad de semillas sub-óptimas a la dieta. Saltatricula multicolor, D. diuca y C. analis mostraron, aunque en distinto grado, una dieta poco flexible basada en la ingesta casi exclusiva de semillas de gramíneas. Las tres subespecies de Z. capensis consideradas en este trabajo mostraron una dieta plástica consumiendo una gran cantidad de ítems sub-óptimos. El pastoreo, al disminuir la abundancia de semillas de gramíneas, provoca variaciones especie-específicas en la dieta de las especies de aves granívoras

Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) was officially reported in Brazil in 2013. This species is closely related to Helicoverpa zea (Boddie) and has caused significant crop damage in Brazil. The use of genetically modified crops expressing insecticidal protein from Bacillus thuringiensis (Berliner) has been one of the control tactics for managing these pests. Genetically modified maize expressing Vip3Aa20 was approved to commercial use in Brazil in 2009. Understanding the genetic diversity and the susceptibility to B. thuringiensis proteins in H. armigera and H. zea populations in Brazil are crucial for establishing Insect Resistance Management (IRM) programs in Brazil. Therefore, the objectives of this study were: (a) to infer demographic parameters and genetic structure of H. armigera and H. zea Brazil; (b) to assess the intra and interspecific gene flow and genetic diversity of H. armigera and H. zea; and (c) to evaluate the susceptibility to Vip3Aa20 protein in H. armigera and H. zea populations of Brazil. A phylogeographic analysis of field H. armigera and H. zea populations was performed using a partial sequence data from the cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) gene. H. armigera individuals were most prevalent on dicotyledonous hosts and H. zea individuals were most prevalent on maize crops. Both species showed signs of demographic expansion and no genetic structure. High genetic diversity and wide distribution were observed for H. armigera. A joint analysis indicated the presence of Chinese, Indian, and European lineages within the Brazilian populations of H. armigera. In the cross-species amplification study, seven microsatellite loci were amplified; and showed a potential hybrid offspring in natural conditions. Interespecific analyses using the same microsatellite loci with Brazilian H. armigera and H. zea in compare to the USA H. zea were also conducted. When analyses were performed within each species, 10 microsatellites were used for H. armigera, and eight for H. zea. We detected high intraspecific gene flow in populations of H. armigera and H. zea from Brazil and H. zea from the USA. Genetic diversity was similar for both species. However, H. armigera was more similar to H. zea from Brazil than H. zea from the USA and some putative hybrid individuals were found in Brazilian populations.Tthere was low gene flow between Brazilian and USA H. zea. The baseline susceptibility to Vip3Aa20 resulted in low interpopulation variation for H. zea (3-fold) and for H. armigera (5-fold), based on LC50. H. armigera was more tolerant to Vip3Aa20 than H. zea (≈ 40 to 75-fold, based on CL50). The diagnostic concentration for susceptibility monitoring, based on CL99, was fairly high (6,400 ng Vip3Aa20/cm2) for H. zea and not validated for H. armigera due to the high amount of protein needed for bioassays. Implementing IRM strategies to Vip3Aa20 in H. armigera and H. zea will be of a great challenge in Brazil, mainly due to the low susceptibility to Vip3Aa20 and high genetic diversity and gene flow in both species, besides a potential of hybrid individuals between H. armigera and H. zea under field conditions.

Los nematodos fitopatógenos y en particular los agalladores causan graves pérdidas al tomate, un cultivo de gran importancia económica en España, la Unión Europea y en todo el mundo. El manejo de enfermedades por nematicidas químicos y fumigantes está muy limitado por la prohibición en la Unión Europea y a escala mundial del uso de muchos nematicidas químicos y de fumigantes como el bromuro de metilo. Los suelos supresivos a nematodos son ejemplos de control biológico natural que incluyen antagonistas de nematodos con potencial para su uso en el manejo de dichos patógenos vegetales. Nuestro grupo posee una dilata experiencia en estudio de la biología y en particular en el análisis del modo de acción del hongo parásito de huevos de nematodos, Pochonia chlamydosporia. En este artículo incluimos un resumen de nuestros estudios sobre presencia de P. chlamydosporia en suelos agrícolas. A continuación abordamos el estudio de aspectos celulares y moleculares de la infección de huevos de nematodos por P. chlamydosporia. Nuestro grupo fue pionero al demostrar que los hongos nematófagos se comportan como endófitos colonizando las raíces de mono y dicotiledóneas. Recientemente hemos secuenciado el genoma de P. chlamydosporia. El estudio de sus relaciones filogenómicas y el análisis de sus familias génicas apoyan el comportamiento multitrófico del hongo. Finalmente aportamos nuestros resultados del análisis metabolómico de la interacción tomate-nematodo agallador-P. chlamydosporia. Nuestra actual hipótesis de trabajo es que el estudio de dicha interacción por técnicas de análisis molecular masivo abren nuevas vías al manejo sostenible de nematodos bloqueando su comunicación con la planta y activando o modulando las defensas de los cultivos por hongos antagonistas como P. chlamydosporia.

Sugarcane is an important culture for Brazil that holds almost half of all worldwide productivity. Plants face many challenges, because of biotic and abiotic stresses presents in the production field, which could prevent plants from reaching their genetic potential. As consequence, those stresses can generate Reactive Oxygen Species – ROS – that can cause damages on DNA. Another consequence of stress is the early-flowering process, which contributes for a reduction on yield. In this context, the aim of this work is to characterize ScMUTM1 and ScMUTM2, two DNA glycosylases belonging to base excision repair pathway; and identify genes potentially related to stress and DNA repair in two sugarcane cultivars with contrasting flowering phenotypes. The characterization of the DNA glycosylases included the construction of vector to over express the recombinant proteins ScMUTM1 and ScMUTM2; they will be used in a near future to purification of these proteins and use in enzymatic assays. It was also made a phylogenetic reconstruction of this gene in plants and analysis of its promoter. With the phylogenetic analysis, it is possible to observe the presence of these genes grouped inside a branch with monocots and another one with dicots. This suggests that the duplication of this gene probably occurred after the separation of these two groups. The analysis of the promotor of MUTM shows of the presence of stress-related regulatory motifs at ScMUTM2 promoter, when compared with ScMUTM1. This may suggests that ScMUTM1 might be suffering sub functionalization process. After the analysis of microarrays data, it is observed an up-regulation from some stress-related genes in one of the conditions analyzed, related to early flowering process.
