Decomposição da palhada de forrageiras em função da adubação nitrogenada após o consórcio com milho e produtividade da soja em sucessão

The objective of this study was to evaluate the straw decomposition of the Urochloa and Panicum after intercropped with corn and nitrogen fertilization, as well as, the agronomic performance of soybean in succession. The experiment was conducted in an Oxisol in Cerrado conditions under no-tillage eight years ago. After the corn harvest intercropped with grass and cutting of forage homogenization were applied N rates (0, 50, 100 and 200 kg ha-1 of N - urea source) in coverage. The plots consisted of Urochloa brizantha,Urochloa ruziziensis and Panicum maximum Tanzânia and Mombaça sown at the time of corn sowing and subplots composed by accumulated amounts of nitrogen applied in forage plants prior to the soybean cultivation (0, 250, 500 and 1000 kg ha-1 of N, after five cuts). The experimental design was a randomized block with four replications in a split plot. Soon after the last cut of the forage, proportionate amount of fresh mass of the species of each subplot was wrapped in nylon bags called Litter Bags, these being deposited in direct contact with the soil, to determine the time of decomposition of the dry mass during a period of 150 days. The nitrogen doses, as well as, the corn intercropped with forages (except with Mombaça) interfere similarly in the straw decomposition of forage and in the soybean yield in succession. All the consortiums of corn and nitrogen fertilization predecessors determined that, at 60 days after desiccation and cutting, still remained between 50 and 60% of the initial straw for no-tillage system.

Desempenho agronômico e produtivo de cultivares de soja em diferentes ciclos e safras

With the objective of gathering technical data about soybean cultivars performance in Botucatu, state of São Paulo, Brazil, an experiment was conducted to evaluate seventeen genotypes. The experiment was conducted during the Summer seasons of 2002/03, 2003/04, and 2004/05. The experiment was set in the field according to a complete block design with four repetitions. The soybean cultivars were ‘Embrapa 48’, ‘BRS 132’. ‘BRS 183’, ‘BRS 212’, ‘IAC 22’, and ‘IAC 23’ (early cycled varieties), ‘BRS 133’, ‘BRS 154’, ‘BRS 156’, ‘BRS 184’, ‘BRS 214’, ‘IAC 18’, and ‘IAC 24’ ( semi early varieties), and ‘BRS 134’, ‘BRS 215’, ‘IAC 8.2’, and ‘IAC 19’ (medium cycled varieties ). All the varieties, during the three cropping years, showed adequate plant height and first pod height of insertion for mechanical harvest. Among the production components, mass of 100 grains showed the highest variability. Cultivar ‘BRS 154’ (medium cycle) showed the highest variation in mass of 100 grains and was also the highest yielding variety in the cropping year of 2004/05. The majority of the cultivars yielded above 3,000 kg ha -1 during the cropping years of 2002/03 and 2004/05. The best yielding performance during the three cropping years were displayed by cultivars ‘IAC 22’ (early cycle), ‘BRS 133’ and ‘BRS 156’ ( both semi early cycled varieties).

Qualidade de sementes de soja colhidas de forma manual e mecânica com diferentes teores de água

A colheita é uma das principais etapas no processo de produção de sementes de soja. O momento adequado para se efetuar a colheita pode variar em função do tipo de colheita e do grau de umidade das sementes. Neste sentido, o objetivo dessa pesquisa foi determinar as alterações fisiológicas de sementes de soja colhidas de forma manual e mecânica com diferentes teores de água. Para tanto, utilizaram-se sementes das cultivares Embrapa 48 e FTS Águia, que têm diferenças no teor de lignina do tegumento, colhidas de forma manual e mecanicamente com 18,0; 15,0 e 12,0% de água. Após a colheita, as sementes foram submetidas à secagem, e a qualidade das sementes foi avaliada pelos testes de germinação, emergência de plântulas, tetrazólio (viabilidade e vigor), envelhecimento acelerado e índice de velocidade de emergência de plântula. Em seguida, as sementes foram armazenadas (20 °C e 45% UR do ar) e analisadas logo após a colheita e aos seis meses de armazenamento. Os resultados obtidos indicam que o parâmetro fisiológico das sementes de soja, não é afetado, quando: se realiza colheita manual com grau de umidade das sementes de 11,4% a 18,4%; e para sementes colhidas à máquina, com grau de umidade entre 12,0% a 15,9%; mantendo a qualidade fisiológica mesmo após seis meses de armazenamento.

Desempenho de fosfitos de potássio no manejo de mofo branco em soja

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.

Efeitos diretos e indiretos de parâmetros dos semivariogramas referentes aos atributos químicos do solo sobre a produtividade de grãos de soja

In order to add value to soybens crops, and hence the marketing, medium and large producers have been using precision agriculture techniques (PA), as the Remote Sensing, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and positioning satellite, to assist the management of crops. Thus, given the economic relevance of that culture to the southwest of Paraná State and Brazil, scientific studies to increase their productivity and profitability are of main importance. The objective of this study was to evaluate the correlation between the chemical soil properties and soybean yield for each estimated parameter of semivariogram (range, nugget and level effect), and the deployment of these correlations in direct and indirect effects, aiming to improve the mapping process of spatial variability of soil chemical properties for use in PA. The hypothesis is that not all attributes of soil used to estimate the semivariogram parameters has a direct effect on productivity, and that even in groups of plants within a larger area it is possible to estimate the parameters of the semivariograms. The experiment was conducted in a commercial area of 19.7 ha, located in the city of Pato Branco - PR, central geographic coordinates 26º 11 '35 "South, 52 43' 05" West longitude, and average altitude of 780 m. The area is planted with soybeans for over 30 years, currently being adopted to cultivate Brasmax Target RR - Don Mario 5.9i, with row spacing of 0.50 m and 13 plants m-1, totaling 260,000 plants ha-1. For georeferencing of the area of study and sampling points was used a couple of topographic ProMarkTM3 receptors, making a relative positioning to obtain the georeferenced coordinates. To collect data (chemical analyzes of soil and crop yield) were sampled 10 blocks in the experimental area, each with an area of 20 m2 (20 meters long x 1 meter wide) containing two spaced adjacent rows of 0.5 m. Each block was divided into 20 portions of 1 m2, and from each were collected four subsamples at a distance of 0.5 m in relation to the lines of blocks, making up a sample depth for 0-10 cm a sample to 10-20 cm for each plot, totaling 200 samples for each depth. The soybean crop was performed on the blocks depending on maturity, and in each block was considered a bundle at each meter. In the data analysis, it was performed a diagnosis of multicollinearity, and subsequently a path analysis of the main variables according to the explanatory variables (range of chemical attributes: pH, K, P, Ca, etc.). The results obtained by the path analysis of the parameters of the semivariogram of soil chemical properties, indicated that only the Fe, Mg, Mn, organic matter (OM), P and Saturation by bases (SB) exerted direct and indirect effects on soybean productivity, although they have not presented spatial variability, indicating that the distribution of blocks in the area was unable to identify the spatial dependence of these elements, making it impossible to draw up maps of the chemical attributes for use in PA.

Hidrolisado de proteína de soja em meio de cultivo para a produção de agente de controle biológico.

Os produtos de controle biológico devem ser produzidos com custo competitivo em relação aos sintéticos para que seu uso se torne generalizado. A fermentação é uma das etapas mais caras para o escalonamento da produção por causa do valor dos ingredientes dos meios de cultura. Neste trabalho, Pichia kudriavzevii L9, um agente de controle de podridão pós-colheita de frutas, foi utilizada como modelo para a avaliação de hidrolisado de proteína de soja como fonte de nitrogênio em meio de cultura líquido. Foram testadas cinco concentrações de proteína de soja (50 L-1 a 250 g L-1) em solução aquosa contendo concentrações de H2SO4 de 0 a 1,0 N, tratadas em autoclave a 121 ºC e 1,0 atm de pressão. Após o resfriamento, o produto obtido foi alcalinizado com KOH até atingir o pH de 6,0 ? 7,0. Nas condições do experimento, a melhor condição para a hidrólise do proteinato de soja e obtenção de maior concentração de aminoácidos no meio, foi de 200 g L-1 de proteinato em solução de HCl 0,5 N, produzindo 32,1 g L-1 de aminoácido livre, quantificado pelo método da ninhidrina. O hidrolisado foi utilizado para o crescimento de P. kudriavzevii L9, obtendo-se a maior produtividade de células viáveis de levedura com a adição de 2% do hidrolisado obtido no meio de cultura, na faixa entre 0,2 a 0,5 N de HCL.

Efecto de distintos nutrientes sobre el rendimiento y la calidad de soja no GMO en América, provincia de Buenos Aires

Resumen: El desarrollo genético de variedades de soja en la Argentina se ha inclinado hacia la búsqueda de altos rendimientos sin tener en cuenta la calidad del grano, en cuanto a porcentaje de proteína. Por esta razón existe la necesidad de buscar prácticas de manejo que aumenten el mismo. En el presente ensayo, se evaluó el efecto de distintas estrategias de fertilización sobre el porcentaje de proteína, aceite y rendimiento de una variedad de soja no GMO y High Pro, en la localidad de América, provincia de Buenos Aires. Los tratamientos fueron: 1. Testigo, 2. 22 kg P ha-1, 3. 22 kg P ha-1 + 13.2 kg S ha-1, 4. 22 kg P ha-1 + 13.2 kg S ha-1 + 100 g B ha-1, 5. 22 kg P ha-1 + 13.2 kg S ha-1 + 100 g B ha-1 + 10 kg N ha-1, 6. 22 kg P ha-1 + 13.2 kg S ha-1 + 100 g B ha-1 + 20 kg N ha-1, 7. 22 kg P ha-1 + 13.2 kg S ha-1 + 100 g B ha-1 + 1,3 kg Zn ha-1, y 8. 44 kg P ha-1 + 26.4 kg S ha-1. Para el caso de P, S y Zn, se aplicaron al suelo un mes antes de la siembra, en cambio el B y N fueron aplicados de manera foliar en los estadios R2 y R5 del cultivo, respectivamente. El rendimiento promedió 4598 kg ha-1, el porcentaje de proteína promedió 45,1% y el de aceite 17.4%. Los tratamientos no arrojaron diferencias significativas en cuanto a rendimiento ni proteína, pero sí la aplicación de Zn, que produjo un aumento significativo en el porcentaje de aceite (10,4%).
