Banana is one of the most consumed fruits in the world, which is grown in most tropical countries. The objective of this work was to evaluate the main attributes of soil fertility in a banana crop under two cover crops and two root development locations. The work was conducted in Curaçá, BA, Brazil, between October 2011 and May 2013, using a randomized block design in split plot with five repetitions. Two cover crops were assessed in the plots, the cover 1 consisting of Pueraria phaseoloid es, and the cover 2 consisting of a crop mix with Sorghum bicolor, Ricinus commun is L., Canavalia ensiform is, Mucuna aterrima and Zea mays, and two soil sampling locations in the subplots, between plants in the banana rows (location 1) and between the banana rows (location 2). There were significant and independent effects for the cover crop and sampling location factors for the variables organic matter, Ca and P, and significant effects for the interaction between cover crops and sampling locations for the variables potassium, magnesium and total exchangeable bases. The cover crop mix and the between-row location presented the highest organic matter content. Potassium was the nutrient with the highest negative variation from the initial content and its leaf content was below the reference value, however not reducing the crop yield. The banana crop associated with crop cover using the crop mix provided greater availability of nutrients in the soil compared to the coverage with tropical kudzu.

Tillage systems strongly affect nutrient transformations and plant availability. The objective of this study was to assess the nitrate dynamic in soil solution in different tillage systems with use of plant cocktail as green manure in fertilized melon (Cucumis melon) in Brazilian semi-arid. The treatments were arranged in four blocks in a split-plot design and included three types of cover crops and two tillage systems, conventional tillage (CT) and no-till (NT). The data showed no strong effect of plant cocktails composition on NO3-N dynamic in the soil. Mean concentration of NO3-N ranged from 19.45 mg L-1 at 15 cm to 60.16 mg L-1 at 50 cm soil depth, indicating high leachability. No significant differences were observed between NT and CT treatments for 15 cm depth. The high soil moisture content at ~ 30 cm depth concentrated high NO3-N in all treatments, mean of 54.27 mg L-1 to NT and 54.62 mg L-1 to CT. The highest NO3-N concentration was observed at 50 cm depth in TC (60.16 mg L-1). High concentration of NO3-N in CT may be attributed to increase in decomposition of soil organic matter and crop residues incorporated into the soil.

Desde o primeiro registro da presença destrutiva de Meloidogyne enterolobii, em 2001, em áreas de goiabeira no Vale do São Francisco (VSF), nos estados da Bahia e de Pernambuco, a ocorrência desse nematoide passou a ter dimensão nacional, sendo relatado em outros 17 estados brasileiros, constituindo-se no principal desafio para a cultura. Práticas de controle do patógeno, como uso de nematicidas, controle biológico, adubações nitrogenadas, plantas não hospedeiras e manejo integrado, têm efeito limitado ou ineficiente (Freitas, 2012). O impacto inicial direto do nematoide na cultura da goiabeira foi estimado em quase US$ 70 milhões em todo o Brasil (Pereira et al., 2009), com redução inicial de até 50% da área plantada no VSF.

O estudo aborda o projeto de construcao e analise de desempenho de um novo sistema de medida evaporometrica que e acoplado a um tanque classe "A" padrao convencional, dando-se ao sistema o nome "Tanque Classe A Modificado". A viabilidade do sistema foi testada contra medidas simultaneas com o sistema classico (tanque classe "A" padrao e micrometro), revelando, atraves de testes estatisticos, que o Tanque Classe "A" Modificado pode substituir com vantagens o sistema classico, minimizando os erros de leitura que sao cometidos mesmo quando se dispoe de pessoal qualificado para esta operacao e permitindo tambem a realizacao de medidas evaporometricas com boa aproximacao em dias de chuva.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of Petit Verdot Extract and hexane, chloroform and ethyl acetate fractions obtained from grape pomace, in addition to identifying active compounds. The PVE and EAF reduced significantly paw edema and neutrophil migration when compared with control groups. The PVE reduced levels of TNF-α and IL1-β in the peritoneal fluid, whereas the EAF did not reduce cytokines significantly. Two hydroxybenzoic acids, two proanthocyanidins, three flavan-3-ol monomers and three anthocyanins were identified in the PVE and EAF by LC-MS/MS. The stilbene transresveratrol was identified only in the EAF. The phenolic compounds were quantified using HPLC-DAD analysis, except for the stilbenes, which were not sensible for the detection by the method. Since PVE and EAF showed significantly anti-inflammatory effects and high concentration of phenolic compounds, we concluded that Petit Verdot pomace could be an interesting source of anti-inflammatory bioactives.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of shoot topping and leaf removal practices on vegetative vigor, yield and physicochemical characteristics of the 'Syrah' grape in the semi-arid tropical climate conditions of the São Francisco River Valley in the northeast of Brazil. The experiment was conducted over five growing cycles from 2010 to 2012 in a 'Syrah' commercial vineyard in the municipality of Casa Nova, Bahia, Brazil. Treatments consisted of leaf removal once or twice during fruit set or at the beginning of bunch closure, and one or two shoot toppings of the berry when pea-sized or 10 days after berry growth had commenced. Leaf removal and shoot topping did not affect yield, plant vigor components nor the main attributes of fruit quality. In contrast, there was a seasonal effect with higher yield and better balance between production and vigor in grapes produced in the first half of 2012. The Syrah grape quality was favored in cycles in the first half of the year when its ripening phase coincided with the period of mild temperatures.

O Nordeste brasileiro apresenta condições edafoclimáticas favoráveis ao desenvolvimento da fruticultura tropical. No entanto, o número de espécies cultivadas comercialmente ainda é pequeno, criando uma situação de vulnerabilidade econômica. Assim, a diversificação dos cultivos é medida premente e a acerola é uma alternativa interessante, pois seus atributos sensoriais e ingredientes nutracêuticos lhe conferem grande versatilidade de aplicações no mercado de frutos in natura e processados.
