Estudou-se a resposta de feijão-vagem de crescimento indeterminado à fertilidade do solo em Anápolis (GO). Utilizaram-se sete linhagens (Hav 13, Hav 38, Hav 40, Hav 49, Hav 56, Hav 64 e Hav 68), e as cultivares Favorito Ag 480, Macarrão Bragança e Teresópolis Ag 484, em sete doses da formulação 4-30-16 aplicadas ao solo (D0= 0; D1=200; D(2)400; D3=600; D4=800; D5=1000 e D6=1200 kg/ha). Houve diferenças significativas entre genótipos para todas características avaliadas, dentro de cada dose do formulado, exceto para produtividade, no quinto nível, e para altura média das plantas no nível mais elevado de fertilidade. As linhagens Hav 49 e Hav 64 igualaram-se aos genótipos de maiores rendimentos em todos os ambientes. O nível médio de fertilidade foi o mais conveniente, do ponto de vista econômico, para todas as características consideradas. Com exceção de Hav 13 e Teresópolis Ag 484, que se mostraram imprevisíveis quanto à produtividade, Hav 13 e Hav 64, quanto ao número de vagens por planta e Favorito Ag 480 quanto à altura média das plantas, os demais genótipos foram estáveis. Todos os genótipos responderam proporcionalmente à melhoria do ambiente para produtividade, número de vagens por planta e altura das plantas. Quanto ao peso médio das vagens a linhagem Hav 40 respondeu menos que proporcionalmente ao aumento da fertilidade do solo, mostrando-se adaptável a solos menos férteis, enquanto a cultivar Teresópolis Ag 484 respondeu mais que proporcionalmente à melhoria da fertilidade mostrando-se adaptável a solos mais férteis.

High soil acidity influences the availability of mineral nutrients and increases that of toxic aluminium (Al), which has a jeopardizing effect on plant growth. The objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of soil liming on the development of guava (Psidium guajava L.) plants, on soil chemical characteristics, and on fruit yield. The experiment was carried out at the Bebedouro Citrus Experimental Station, state of São Paulo, Brazil, in a Typic Hapludox soil, from August 1999 to March 2003. The treatments consisted of limestone dose: D0 = zero; D1 = half dose; D2 = total dose; D3 = 1.5 times the dose, and D4 = 2 times the dose to raise the V value to 70%. The doses corresponded to zero, 1.85, 3.71, 5.56, and 7.41tha(-1) applied to the upper soil layer (0-30cm deep) before planting. The results showed that liming caused an improvement in the evaluated soil chemical characteristics up to a depth of 60cm in soil samples both in the line and between lines. The highest fruit yields were obtained when the base saturation reached a value of 55% in the line and 62% between the lines. Foliar levels of calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) were 8.8 and 2.5gkg-1, respectively. The highest limestone dose maintained the soil base saturation (at the layer of 0-20cm) in the line close to 55% during at least 40 months after the incorporation of limestone.

The objective was to study the effects of phosphorous (P) fertilization on nutritional and developmental aspects of growing mango plants. The mango plants were evaluated by soil chemical analyses, leaf chemical analyses, biological examination of plant growth, and the starting point of fruit production. Having this in view, an experiment was set up on 2 January 2003, at Flora, a farm in Uberlandia, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The soil was a clayish Oxisol. The doses at planting were: D0 = zero, D1 = 40, D2 = 100, D3 = 200, and D4 = 300 g of P2O5 plant-1. These doses at the beginning of the second year were multiplied by 1.5 and at the beginning of the third year by 2.0 and applied to the plants. The fertilizer used in this experiment was triple superphosphate (44% of P2O5.). During August of 2004, 2005, and 2006, soil samples were taken at a depth of 20 cm in between the plant rows. Leaf samples were taken during August of 2004 and 2005 to determine macro- and micronutrient contents in the leaves. Plant stem diameter was measured during January of 2004 and 2005. Plant height and crown radius were measured during January of 2005 and fruit production in 2005 and 2006. Fertilizer applications increased the level of P in the soil but significantly influenced plant performance only after the second year. The effects of phosphorus on mango plants take place slowly leading to increments in plant stem diameter only at the third year. Fruit set was not influenced by phosphorous fertilization.

Shrimp farming in Brazil is a consolidated activity, having brought economical and social gains to several states with the largest production concentrated in the northeast. This fact is also reflected in higher feed intake, necessitating a more efficient feed management. Currently, management techniques already foresee food loss due to molting. In this sense, studies relating shrimp s digestive physiology, molting physiology and behavioral response of shrimp feed can optimize the feed management. Thus, our study aimed to evaluate the behavioral response of the marine shrimp L. vannamei (Crustacea: Penaeidae) in accordance with the stages of moulting cycle and feeding schedules based on higher or lower activity of proteolytic digestive enzymes; also, to investigate the influence of feeding schedule on hepatosomatic index and non-specific and specific protease activity (trypsin). Experiments were carried out at the Laboratory of Shrimp Behavioral Studies at UFRN in partnership with the Laboratory of Enzimology UFPE. Juveniles of L. vannamei weighting 5.25 g (+ 0.25 g) were kept in aquaria at a density of 33 shrimp m -2. In the first experiment, shrimp were fed in the light phase or in the dark phase for 8 days; in the ninth day, the animals were observed for 15 minutes every hour during the 12 hours of each phase of the photoperiod. We recorded the frequency of inactivity, exploration, food intake, burrowing, swimming and crawling behavior. At the end of the 12th observation session, the shrimp were sacrified and classified by the method of setogenesis in the molt cycle stages A, B, C, D0, D1, D2 or D3. We found that the shrimp in A stage show high levels of inactivity. Moreover, the frequency of food intake was very low. The shrimp in D3 stage also had low food intake and high inactivity associated with elevated frequencies of burrowing. In the second experiment, shrimp were kept in physiological acclimation to experimental conditions for 28 days, distributed in 12 treatments in the light phase and 12 treatments in the dark phase. In the end, the animals were sacrified and dissected to assess non-specific and specific protease activity (trypsin) activity. In general, these parameters did not vary among animals fed in the light phase and those fed in the dark phase. However, significant differences were found in the activity of specific and nonspecific proteases in relation to food treatment. In the light phase, the major proteolytic activities converged to 10 hours after the start of the light phase, while the lowest activities converged to 6 hours after the beginning of this phase. In the dark phase, the highest enzyme activity converged to 12 hours after the onset of phase, while the lowest activities converged to 3 hours after the onset of phase. In the third experiment, we sought to evaluate the behavioral responses of shrimp in relation to dietary treatments based on higher or lower activity of proteolytic enzymes, considering the results of the second experiment. The behavioral categories observed were the same as the ones in the first experiment, with observations of 30 minutes (15min before and 15min after food supply). We found variation in behavioral responses as a function of the treatments, with greater intake of food in shrimp fed during the period of greatest activity of proteolytic enzymes, in the light phase. Thus we see that periodic events associated with the shrimp s physiology interfere in their behavioral responses, revealing situations that are more adjustable to the provision of food, and consequently optimizing feeding management

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da suplementação alimentar com gordura protegida ruminal sobre as estruturas ovarianas e sobre a concentração sérica de progesterona, em novilhas Nelore mantidas em pasto. Quarenta novilhas foram divididas em dois grupos: um suplementado com gordura protegida Megalac-E (G); e outro sem suplementação de gordura (C). O grupos foram avaliados em delineamento crossover. Utilizaram-se dietas isoenergéticas e isoproteicas. Após 15 dias de suplementação, os animais foram submetidos a um protocolo hormonal, para avaliação da influência da suplementação com gordura no metabolismo da progesterona. Para isto, em um dia aleatório do ciclo (D0), inseriu-se um implante intravaginal de liberação de progesterona (CIDR), e aplicou-se prostaglandina F2α (PGF2α, i.m.). No D7, o implante foi retirado, e outra aplicaηão de PGF2α foi realizada. No D18, foi feita uma nova aplicaηão de PGF2α e, então, foram observados diariamente os exames ultrassonográficos ovarianos e a ocorrência de estro. Para o ensaio com progesterona, colheu-se sangue 4 dias após a inserção do implante e, novamente, 7 e 14 dias após a ovulação. A concentração de progesterona sérica no D4 foi maior no grupo G. Não houve diferença nas concentrações séricas de progesterona 7 e 14 dias após a ovulação, nem no diâmetro do folículo ovulatório, nem no volume luteal. A suplementação com Megalac-E altera o metabolismo de progesterona, mas não altera a função ovariana em novilhas zebuínas em pasto.

Os efeitos da remoção temporária de bezerros (RB) sobre características foliculares e taxas de ovulação e de prenhez de vacas Nelore foram avaliados em dois experimentos quando da inseminação artificial em tempo fixo (IATF), utilizando-se um protocolo à base de GnRH-PGF2α-BE. No experimento 1, 139 vacas Nelore, lactantes, cíclicas ou acíclicas, receberam um protocolo hormonal envolvendo a aplicação de 100±g de análogo GnRH no dia zero (D0-GnRH), 25mg de PGF2α no dia 7 (D7-PGF2α) e 1,0mg de benzoato de estradiol no dia 8 (D8-BE). Os animais foram aleatoriamente distribuídos para serem submetidas ou não à RB (48 horas) antes da aplicação de GnRH (RB1) ou após a aplicação de PGF2α (RB2). Avaliaram-se o diâmetro folicular (DF) nos dias 0 (D0) e 9 (D9) do protocolo e as taxas de ovulação (T0), advindas dos tratamentos. As vacas acíclicas que receberam RB1 apresentaram maiores DF no D0 (P<0,05) e taxa de ovulação (P<0,05) quando da aplicação de GnRH, em relação às que não receberam RB1. Nas vacas cíclicas, não houve efeito da RB1 sobre as variáveis analisadas. As vacas que receberam RB2 apresentaram maiores DF no D9 (P<0,05) e taxa de ovulação (P<0,01) quando da aplicação de BE, em relação às que não receberam a RB2. No experimento 2, 376 vacas da raça Nelore, lactantes, foram submetidas ao mesmo protocolo hormonal e aos mesmos tratamentos do experimento 1, mas foram inseminadas 24 a 30 horas após a aplicação de BE no D8, visando avaliar a taxa de prenhez após a IATF. A taxa de prenhez foi maior nos animais que receberam as duas RB em relação às que não receberam RB (29,8% vs 10,6%; P<0,05). A remoção de bezerros associada ao protocolo hormonal aplicado pode ter aumentado as taxas de prenhez devido às maiores taxas de ovulação, em resposta ao GnRH ou ao benzoato de estradiol.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the nutraceutic (Promater (R)) influence on semen, body weight, eritrogram and hormones testosterone and cortisol in Nelore young bulls. Twenty Nelore bulls were utilized, aging between 30 and 36 months, divided in group 1 (G1)= 10 (control) and group 2 (G2)= 10 (nutraceutic group - Promater (R): 20 mL/animal/day, during 70 days). Corporal weight, blood samples to eritrogram, testosterone and cortisol were obtained in days zero (D0), 35 (D35) and 70 (D70) in two groups. There was difference (P<0.01) among days collected (0, 35 and 70) with means of 424.30 kg, 480.70 kg and 502.60 kg, respectively, but there was not difference between groups. There was not difference among groups to semen, eritrogram, cortisol (G1 = 3,19 mu g/dL; G2 = 2,91 mu g/dL) and testosterone (G1 = 274,48 ng/dL; G2 = 509,65 ng/dL). The results exposed allow concluding that were not observed significative effect of the nutraceutic upon evaluated parameters: body weight, semen, hormonal profile and eritrogram.
