Although it is well known that nutrient imbalance in shoot tissues may impair plant performance, the interactive effect between foliar phosphorus (P) application and varying P availability in the rooting medium on the nutritional status of sugarcane has not been well studied. To fill this research gap, four sugarcane varieties (IAC91-1099, IACSP94-2101, IACSP94-2094 and IACSP95-5000) were evaluated using a combination of two concentrations of P in nutrient solution (P-deficient, PD = 0.02 mmol L^(−1) and P-sufficient, PS = 0.5 mmol L^(−1)) and foliar P application (none and 0.16 mol L^(−1)). The spray was applied until drip point three times during the experiment with 15 days intervals, after which the plants were harvested to quantify growth and shoot concentration of nitrogen (N), P, magnesium (Mg), sulphur (S) and manganese (Mn). The responses of sugarcane plants to foliar P spray at different levels of P supply in the rooting medium was not genotype-dependent. It was demonstrated for the averaged values across varieties, that foliar P application enhanced sugarcane performance under low P, as revealed by improvements of leaf area and dry matter production of shoot and root of PD plants. Under P limitation we also observed diminished shoot concentration of N, P, Mg, S and increased concentration of Mn. However, foliar P spray increased the concentrations of N, P, S and reduced shoot Mn. Furthermore, shoot P:N, P:Mg, P:S, P:Mn and Mg:Mn concentration ratios exhibited a positive relationship with shoot dry matter production. In conclusion, low P supply in the rooting medium impairs nutrient balance in shoot tissues of sugarcane at early growth; however, this effect was ameliorated by foliar P application which merits further study under field conditions.

La valutazione strumentale del cammino è solitamente svolta chiedendo ai soggetti semplicemente di camminare (ST). Tale condizione non rappresenta la quotidianità. Infatti, nella vita di tutti i giorni la locomozione richiede di adattarsi alle necessità individuali e il coinvolgimento di attività cognitive. I paradigmi di Dual-Task (DT) sono utilizzati per valutare i cambiamenti nella strategia di controllo del cammino in situazioni di vita quotidiana. In particolare, gli indici di performance, di variabilità e di stabilità, utilizzati nella valutazione del controllo motorio, potrebbero essere utili per valutare le interferenze cognitive durante il cammino. L’obiettivo del lavoro è di valutare come tali indici cambiano durante il Dual-Task. Sono stati reclutati 16 studenti, giovani e sani, della Facoltà di Ingegneria Biomedica di Cesena, ai quali è stato chiesto di compiere un cammino rettilineo di 250 m, senza ostacoli, all’aperto, in due condizioni: svolgendo la sola attività di cammino (ST); aggiungendo al precedente task, una sottrazione consecutiva di 7 ad alta voce, partendo da un numero casuale (DT). Tramite tre sensori inerziali tri-assiali, posti sul tronco (L5) e sulle caviglie, sono stati acquisiti i segnali di accelerazione e velocità angolare. Dopo aver calcolato, a partire da tali dati, indici di performance (numero di passi, cadence, velocità e tempo di esecuzione del test), di variabilità (Standard Deviation, Coefficient of Variation, Index of the Variance, Nonstationary Index, Poincare 4 Plots) e di stabilità (Harmonic Ratio e Index of Harmonicity), nelle due condizioni (ST e DT), è stata eseguita un’analisi statistica tra i due task. Le analisi statistiche condotte su tali indici hanno evidenziato che il DT influenza prevalentemente gli indici di performance (numero di passi, cadence, velocità e tempo di esecuzione del test) e in grado minore gli indici di variabilità e stabilità.

Molybdenum is one of the essential micronutrients for soybeans, acting directly on nitrogen metabolism as enzyme cofactor of nitrogenase. Usually, this nutrient is supplied to the plants through seed treatment or foliar application. The aim of this study was to evaluate the molybdenum effects by foliar in the physiological potential of soybean seeds and verify its interference in the enzyme activities involved in nitrogen metabolism. Soybean seeds of BMX Turbo cultivar were used, produced in Erechim, RS, harvest 2013, from plants treated with the following Mo concentrations: 0; 25; 50 and 75 g ha-1, supplied through two commercial products (Biomol and Molybdate) and stored during 0 and 6 months in uncontrolled conditions. The first experiment was conducted in Seedtes Seed Analysis Laboratory in Pato Branco, PR. The used design was completely randomized in a factorial analysis 4 x 2 x 2 with four replications each. The physiological potential of the seeds was evaluated by the germination test, seedling growth, accelerated aging and emergence on the soil. The second experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, where the seeds derived from treatments with different concentrations of Mo: 0; 25; 50 and 75 g ha-1 supplied through two commercial products (Biomol and Molybdate) were grown in vases. The used design was completely randomized in a factorial analysis 4 x 2 with four replications. Evaluations were performed when the plants reached the R1 phenological stage concerning the nodulation, dry matter of root and shoot of the plants and the determination of the activity of the enzymes glutamine synthetase and glutamate synthetase and the content of total soluble proteins. The data were submitted to variance analysis and when significant they were assessed by Tukey’s test for comparison of products and seed storage and with regression study to the concentrations at 5% probability. Analyses were performed using SISVAR statistical software. The soybean seed storage under uncontrolled conditions affected the seed vigour produced with Mo, regardless of the commercial product used during production. The application of Mo through foliar positively influences the production of soya beans which presented increasing responses in the germination and vigour with the application of Mo above 25 g ha-1 . The enrichment of Mo through foliar did not affect the nodulation of plants of the next generation, however, the use of Mo above 25 g ha-1 provided an increase in the activity of enzymes involved in nitrogen metabolism as well as on the total protein content.

During surveys of wild and cultivated rice in northern Queensland in 2014 and 2015, 92 fungal isolates were obtained from plants that were afflicted by foliar diseases, including the rice blast pathogen, Pyricularia oryzae, and the brown spot pathogen, Bipolaris oryzae. Seven species of Curvularia were found, viz. Curvularia aeria, C. alcornii, C. asianensis, C. clavata, C. lunata, C. muehlenbeckiae and an undescribed species. To remove uncertainty about the identity of the host plants from which the fungi were isolated, a DNA barcoding strategy was developed using regions of the chloroplast genome. Pathogenicity tests using wild rice isolates of P. oryzae indicated that many local rice varieties are susceptible to infection.

Soybean plays an important role in the Brazilian agriculture being one of the products most exported by the country. Its yield may be affected by diseases such as white mold, caused by the fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum Lib. de Bary, which, under favorable field conditions prevents the crop of expressing all its productive potential. The fungus is cosmopolitan and infects more than 400 species of plants. This disease is difficult to control, and the use of chemicals has not been sufficient to avoid significant losses, thus, this products are expensive and may cause environmental damage. Alternative methods, such as foliar fertilizers based on potassium phosphite, can also be used in the management of this disease. In this context, this work aimed to study different sources of potassium phosphite and its effects in the control of white mold in soybeans, as well as the time of application in culture, its action in inducing plants defense responses and/or its influence over the seeds quality. The effect of phosphites, over the pathogen, was evaluated in vitro, on mycelial inhibition, the mass of dry mycelium and germination of sclerotia. In all tests, the following phosphites were utilized: Phosphite A (P2O5-40%; K2O-20% - 1 L/ha); Phosphite B (P2O5-40%; K2O-28% - 1 L/ha); Phosphite C (P2O5-40%; K2O-20% - 1 L/ha) e Phosphite D (P2O5-30%; K2O-20% - 2,4 L/ha). At the induction of resistance tests were evaluated the synthesis of phytoalexin in soybean cotyledons and the enzymes FAL and POX evaluated in seedlings in growing chamber, sprayed with phosphites and the fungicide fluazinam. Field experiment was carried out at Coronel Domingos Soares-PR, in the 2012/2013 season, in an area with natural infestation of the pathogen. Soybean cultivar BMX Active was no-till seeded with 0,5m between rows. The experimental was laid out as a factorial 5 x 4 scheme (treatment x application time). Phosphites sources were used, as described above, and water was sprayed in the control treatment. Treatments were applied at four different growth stages: V4, V4 + R1, R1 and R2 at the rates recommended by the manufacturer. Soybean yield components and seeds and health and physiological quality were evaluated after harvesting. None of the tested phosphites affected mycelial growth and sclerotia germination or influenced phytoalexin synthesis. Phosphites C and D stood out due to an increasing in the phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity 48 hours after its inoculation. These same products also induced the synthesis and peroxidases and phosphite C kept the levels of this enzyme elevated up to 72 hours after inoculation. At the field trials, phosphites C and D stood out in the control of white mold. There was no significant interaction of potassium phosphite on physiological and sanitary quality of the seeds.

The knowledge of molybdenum application in legumes on the availability of N, by BNF, increased enzymatic activity and the residual effect caused on crops growth and yield can contribute to the greater scientific understanding involved in green manure processes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the Mo application and the N from Crotalaria juncea and Canavalia ensiformis green manures on common bean performance. Were conducted field experiments for the crops succession system (green manures - common bean) and laboratory essays for the enzymatic activities. Green manure production was installed in a factorial arrangement 2 x 4, with two green manure legumes species, sunnhemp (Crotalaria juncea) and jack beans (Canavalia ensiformis), and four Mo doses (0, 40, 80, 120 g ha-1) in the form of sodium molybdate (Na2MoO4), foliar applied, in a randomized block design with four replicates. For succession crop (common bean) additional treatment was added, beans grown without any fertilization, following the same experimental design from the previous crop. The dry matter decomposition and the N mineralization of green manure were monitored through collection of residues over time, by using the litter bags method. In laboratory were carried out tests of nitrate reductase activity in green manures and common beans at 90 and 66 days after sowing, respectively. The sunnhemp responded linearly positively to the application of Mo as the dry matter and N accumulation. While the jack beans presented a negative quadratic response for dry matter and there was no adjustment of regression models to N. The jack beans showed a higher decomposition rate and N mineralization compared to sunnhemp. The half lives for decomposing 50% of dry matter on the soil was 123 and 104 days to sunnhemp and jack beans, respectively, and 50% of N present in the residues was mineralized at 93 and 85 days. In common bean, differed from the control for number of pods the dose of 40 g ha-1 of Mo in both species of green manures and the dose 80 g ha-1 of Mo in jack beans. For number of grains only in sunnhemp on the dose of 40 g ha-1 of Mo differ from the control. The nitrate reductase activity was influenced by developmental stage of green manure species. In common bean, the activity of nitrate reductase was up to three times higher than the dose 0 g ha-1 of Mo compared to treatment with application of Mo in both species. There was no effect of Mo doses or species of green manure on common bean yield.

To achieve high yields the corn crop is dependent on nitrogen. Systems of cover crops preceding corn and form of land cultivation are essential for the best use of nitrogen by corn. This study aimed to evaluate the use or not of nitrogen fertilization in corn in succession to cover crops, planted in three cropping systems. The experimental design was randomized blocks with sub-divided portion where the main plots consisted of three cultivation systems (tillage, conventional tillage and minimum tillage), the subplots by four plant cover in monocrop (oat, hairy vetch, field peas and turnip) and sub-subplots by nitrogen fertilization (0 and 160 kg ha-1 N). Evaluations were performed, the cover crops, soil cover rate, dry matter, content and accumulation of nutrients. In corn we evaluated yield components, yield, chlorophyll and nutrient levels in leaves. Among the species coverage studied the oat showed hardiness in the experiment, covering ground faster and showing more dry matter, however vetch hairy showed higher concentrations of N, P and K and higher accumulation of N ha-1. The soil tillage system influenced the K leaf content. The interaction cultivation x coverage showed significance for the total chlorophyll of corn. In the absence of N, N content and chlorophyll were higher where the corn was sown on the pea and hairy vetch. The corn production, despite a higher average in the presence of nitrogen fertilization, did not differ significantly when used the pea and hairy vetch as a cover crop.

A batata está sujeita a stresses bióticos (doenças, pragas, infestantes) e abióticos (condições climáticas, secura, excesso de água, ou fitotoxicidade provocada por herbicidas, entre outros). Os adubos foliares contendo nutrientes (macro e micronutrientes) poderão contribuir para uma melhor nutrição da planta, para além de exercer uma ação benéfica ao nível do potencial hídrico da folha e sua proteção contra os diversos inimigos bióticos. Instalou-se um ensaio em Marinhais na variedade de batata de indústria Lady Rosetta, para avaliar o efeito da adubação foliar de uma gama de adubos foliares “Humigel”, contendo, entre outros nutrientes, o enxofre e o potássio, numa situação de fitotoxidade causada pela aplicação de um herbicida. O ensaio foi instalado com um dispositivo experimental de parcelas totalmente aleatórias, com 4 repetições. Os tratamentos foram a aplicação de “Humigel” e sem aplicação (testemunha). A produção comercial nas parcelas com “Humigel” foi significativamente mais elevada (48 192 kg/ha) do que nas parcelas testemunha (43 458 kg/ha). Não se registaram diferenças significativas ao nível do número de tubérculos (comercial e total) por planta, nem ao nível dos parâmetros de qualidade (peso específico e teste de fritura).

O stress oxidativo está associado ao envelhecimento e a inúmeras patologias, nomeadamente a doenças neurodegenerativas e cardiovasculares, e a diversos outros fatores. O stress oxidativo leva à oxidação de importantes biomoléculas como os lípidos e, ao contrário da maior parte dos produtos de oxidação de fosfolípidos e ácidos gordos insaturados (PUFAS), os produtos de oxidação de glicosfingolípidos (GSLs) têm sido escassamente estudados. Os glicosfingolípidos são moléculas muito diversificadas estruturalmente e com importantes funções, essencialmente no sistema nervoso central (SNC) onde estão localizados maioritariamente. Deste modo, alterações na estrutura dos GSLs conduzirão a consequente comprometimento das suas funções e ao possível desenvolvimento de patologias. Assim para identificar as modificações oxidativas que ocorrem em glicosfingolípidos e pressupor consequentes efeitos biológicos nas células sob stress oxidativo, prepararamse sistemas modelo biomiméticos com diferentes GSLs os quais foram expostos a radicais hidroxilo gerados sob condições da reação de Fenton (H2O2 e Fe2+) e as reações foram monitorizadas por diferentes metodologia utilizando a espectrometria de massa. Os resultados obtidos com este estudo permitiram-nos identificar vários produtos de oxidação produzidos durante a oxidação desta classe de lípidos. Os produtos de oxidação observados em comum, em todos os GSLs estudados (C16:0GalCer, C24:1GalCer, C24:1LacCer e GM1) foram as suas correspondentes ceramidas. Estas atuam como agentes pro-apoptóticos e podem in vivo promover a neurodegeneração nas células sob stress oxidativo. Também foi possível observar produtos com inserção de oxigénio junto às duplas ligações ou na cadeia de esfingosina (no caso do GM1) ou na cadeia de ácido gordo monoinsaturada (no caso da C24:1GalCer, C24:1LacCer), corroborando o facto de que ácidos gordos saturados não são susceptíveis à oxidação por radicais. Interessantemente em ambos os GSLs de cadeias glicosiladas compostas com mais de um açúcar (C24:1LacCer e GM1) observou-se a despolimerização oxidativa da porção glicosilada por quebra das correspondentes ligações glicosídicas. Esta degradação leva à formação de GlcCer no caso de oxidação de LacCer ou na formação de outros gangliósidos (GM2, GM3, asialoGM1 e asialoGM2) e glicolípidos (LacCer e GlcCer), no caso de oxidação de GM1. A formação por via radicalar não enzimática destes GSLs leva a distúrbios no perfil lipídico. Previamente, em certas doenças, foram observadas variações na concentração do perfil de gangliósidos e de ceramidas. Estes dados permitem sugerir que em células em condições de stress oxidativo, a acumulação de gangliósidos mais simples e ceramidas poderá ter uma contribuição de produtos da degradação oxidativa dos gangliósidos e GSLs mais complexos. Este trabalho contribui assim para uma melhor compreensão das modificações estruturais que ocorrem em alguns glicosfingolípidos em condições de stress oxidativo. Os produtos de oxidação aqui identificados suportam a sua possível futura deteção em sistemas biológicos.

Os métodos tradicionais para a quantificação de clorofilas implicam na destruição das folhas, além de serem demorados e dispendiosos. Uma alternativa aos métodos destrutivos é o uso de medidores portáteis, dentre eles o SPAD 502, que mede a intensidade da cor verde das folhas, resultando no índice SPAD (Soil Plant Analysis Development). No entanto, o índice SPAD deve ser ajustado para o teor de clorofilas, conforme a espécie de interesse. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi calibrar o índice SPAD para a quantificação de clorofilas em folhas de plantas de vime ( Salix viminalis ). Folhas desta espécie, com tonalidade variando de verde-amarelada (clorótica) a verde-escura, foram avaliadas individualmente com o SPAD-502, seguido de quantificações destrutivas dos teores de clorofilas a, b e totais, expressos em unidade de área e massa fresca foliar. Houve elevado coeficiente de determinação (R²) entre os valores de índice SPAD e os teores de clorofila a, b e totais nas folhas, expressos em μg cm-2 de área foliar (R² de 0,86; 0,88 e 0,93, respectivamente) e entre os valores de índice SPAD e os teores de clorofilas b e totais, expressos em μg g-1 de massa fresca (R² 0,79 e 0,81, respectivamente). Os resultados mostram que existe viabilidade no uso do clorofilômetro SPAD 502, como alternativa aos métodos destrutivos, para a quantificação de clorofilas (em unidade de área; μg cm-2) em folhas de vimeiro.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito do tipo de miniestacas e a necessidade de aplicação de ácido indolbutírico sobre o enraizamento e qualidade das mudas formadas de Handroanthus heptaphyllus . As miniestacas apicais e intermediárias foram obtidas em minijardim multiclonal formado a partir de sementes. As miniestacas foram preparadas com 5 cm de comprimento, um par de folhas reduzidas a 50% da área foliar e estaqueadas sem e com AIB na concentração de 8000 mg L-1. As avaliações foram realizadas aos 30 dias, na expedição do setor de enraizamento e aos 120 dias, quando a muda se encontrava formada. O experimento foi conduzido em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, em esquema fatorial 3 x 2 x 2 (três épocas de coleta, duas concentrações de AIB e duas posições do propágulo), com quatro repetições, sendo 12 miniestacas por repetição. De acordo com os resultados, o AIB não foi necessário para o enraizamento das miniestacas, entretanto, sua utilização promove incremento do número e comprimento de raízes. As miniestacas intermediárias proporcionaram maior massa seca de raízes aos 30 dias após o estaqueamento, e aos 120 dias, maior número de folhas e de raízes. A época de coleta influenciou a qualidade final das mudas. Aquelas produzidas na última coleta (oitavo) apresentaram valores médios inferiores nas características biométricas, exceto para o comprimento e número de raízes de primeira ordem.

Micronutrients are part of many crucial physiological plant processes. The combined application of N and micronutrients helps in obtaining grain yield with beneficial technological and consumer properties. The main micronutrients needed by cereals include Cu, Mn, and Zn. The subject of this study was to determine yield, quality indicators (protein content and composition, gluten content, grain bulk density, Zeleny sedimentation index, and grain hardness), as well as mineral content (Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe) in winter wheat grain ( Triticum aestivum L.) fertilized by foliar micronutrient application. A field experiment was carried out at the Educational and Experimental Station in Tomaszkowo, Poland. The application of mineral fertilizers (NPK) supplemented with Cu increased Cu content (13.0%) and ω, α/β, and γ (18.7%, 4.9%, and 3.4%, respectively) gliadins in wheat grain. Foliar Zn fertilization combined with NPK increased Cu content (14.9%) as well as high (HMW) and low molecular weight (LMW) glutenins (38.8% and 6.7%, respectively). Zinc fertilization significantly reduced monomeric gliadin content and increased polymeric glutenin content in grain, which contributed in reducing the gliadin:glutenin ratio (0.77). Mineral fertilizers supplemented with Mn increased Fe content in wheat grain (14.3%). It also significantly increased protein (3.8%) and gluten (4.4%) content, Zeleny sedimentation index (12.4%), and grain hardness (18.5%). Foliar Mn fertilization increased the content of ω, α/β, and γ gliadin fractions (19.9%, 9.5%, and 2.1%, respectively), as well as HMW and LMW glutenins (18.9% and 4.5%, respectively). Mineral NPK fertilization, combined with micronutrients (Cu + Zn + Mn), increased Cu and Zn content in grain (22.6% and 17.7%, respectively). The content of ω, α/β, and γ gliadins increased (20.3%, 10.5%, and 12.1%, respectively) as well as HMW glutenins (7.9%).
