ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of three rice cultivars under saline water irrigation. The experiment was carried out in full sun at the Experimental Farm of the Unilab, in Redenção, Ceará, Brazil, in January 2016. The experimental design was completely randomized (CRD), in a 5 x 3 factorial scheme [irrigation water electrical conductivity (ECw: 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 dS m-1) versus three rice cultivars (C1 - Ligeirinho, C2 - Casado and C3 - Meruinho)], totaling 15 treatments, with 4 replicates of 30 seeds per cultivar. After 21 days, the following variables were evaluated: emergence percentage (EP), emergence speed index (ESI), mean time of emergence (MTE), mean speed of emergence (MSE), shoot dry matter (SDM), root dry matter (RDM) and total dry matter (TDM). The cultivar Ligeirinho showed higher tolerance to saline stress with respect to the emergence percentage, emergence speed index and mean speed of emergence. The cultivar Casado showed higher tolerance to saline stress for shoot dry matter, root dry matter and total dry matter in comparison to the other cultivars.

The salinity in irrigation water is one of the most important causes to decline cultivated plants yield. The H2O2 application has shown efficiency as a stimulator and activator for antioxidative defense system in plants submitted to biotic and abiotic stresses. The objective of this study was to evaluate methods for hydrogen peroxide application as a strategy to minimize the effects of saline stress on melon plants. The experiment was designed in complete randomized blocks and set in 2 × 4 factorial scheme, consisting two levels for irrigation water salinity (S1 = 0.3 and S2 = 2.0 dS m-1) and four methods for hydrogen peroxide application (15 mM), (T1 = no peroxide application, T2= imbibition of seeds, T3 = at sowing, T4 = Foliar spraying), with five repetitions. It was evaluated the following variables at 58 days after transplanting: plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves, number of flowers, shoot dry mass, root dry mass and total dry mass. The results showed that salinity affected the growth, biomass accumulation and plant quality severely, with the highest losses promoted by the electrical conductivity of 2.0 dS m-1.

Para tanto, realizou-se dois experimentos concomitantes, usando-se lisímetros de drenagem. No Experimento I estudou-se em blocos casualizados com três repetições um esquema fatorial (5x3), cinco níveis de salinidade da água (CEa) (0,6; 1,2; 1,8; 2,4 e 3,0 dS m-1), e três combinações de copa/porta-enxerto (PE1–TSKC x TRENG–256; PE2 – LCRC e PE3 – TSKC x LCRC x P. trifoliata (TR)–059) tendo laranjeira ‘Mimo do céu’ como copa. No Experimento II estudou-se a aplicação da dose de 200% de nitrogênio recomendada em plantas irrigadas com águas de CEa de 3,0 dS m-1, sendo os resultados comparados aos obtidos nas plantas irrigadas com água de 3,0 dS m-1 sob adubação nitrogenada a 100% da recomendação do Experimento I, formando um fatorial (3x2), correspondentes a três combinações copa/porta-enxerto e duas doses de nitrogênio, com três repetições cada. As plantas enxertadas no limoeiro Cravo ‘Comum’ possuem as melhores médias para o teor relativo de água e para o extravasamento de eletrólitos, porém, com base nessas variáveis, são as mais sensíveis à salinidade. O PE1 (TSKC x TRENG – 256) foi o genótipo mais tolerância com base no teor relativo de água e no extravasamento de eletrólitos. O estresse salino reduziu os teores dos pigmentos clorofilianos das plantas cítricas. O dano celular foi reduzido quando se aplicou maior quantidade de nitrogênio. Palavras-chave: Citrus spp..

In Experiment I, five levels of saline water -ECw (0.6; 1.2; 1.8; 2.4; 3.0 dS m-1) applied to three combinations of scion-rootstock (PE1-TSKC x TRENG-256; PE2 - LCRC and PE3 - TSKC LCRC x P. trifoliata -059) with ‘Mimo-do-céu’ orange as scion were analyzed in a randomized block design with three replications in a 5 x 3 factorial scheme. In Experiment II the application of 200% of recommended nitrogen dose were applied in plants irrigated with ECw = 3.0 dS m-1 and results were compared to those obtained from plants irrigated with 100% recommended nitrogen fertilization of the first experiment, in factorial arrangement 3 x 2, corresponding to three combinations of scion-rootstock and two nitrogen levels, with three replications. The plants grafted with 'Rangpur Common' lime presented the best results for the relative water content (TRA) and electrolyte leakage, however, based on these variables, they are the most sensitive to salinity. The PE1 (TSKC x TRENG - 256) is the genotype that provides higher tolerance based on the TRA and the electrolyte leakage. Saline stress reduced levels of chlorophyllian pigments of citrus. Cellular damage was reduced when higher amounts of nitrogen are applied. Keywords: Citrus spp. Biochemistry. Salinity stress. ‘mimo-do-céu'.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the water relations, cell damage percentage and growth of the castor bean cv. ‘BRS Energia’ as a function of salinity and cationic nature of the water used in irrigation. The experiment was conducted in drainage lysimeters under greenhouse conditions in eutrophic Grey Argisol of sandy loam texture. Six combinations of water salinity and cations were studied (S1 - Control; S2 - Na+, S3 - Ca2+, S4 - Na+ + Ca2+; S5 - K+ and S6 - Na+ + Ca2+ + Mg2+), in a randomized block design with four replicates. In the control (S1), plants were irrigated with 0.6 dS m-1 water, whereas the other treatments received 4.5 dS m-1 water, obtained by adding different salts, all in the chloride form. Higher relative water content in the leaf blade of plants irrigated with K+-salinized water associated with leaf succulence are indicative of tolerance of the castor bean cv. ‘BRS Energia’ to salinity. Saline stress negatively affected castor bean growth, regardless of cationic nature of water. Among the ions studied, ‘BRS Energia’ castor bean was more sensitive to the presence of sodium in the irrigation water, in terms of both water relations and leaf succulence.

ABSTRACT Irrigation with saline water is a worldwide necessity an excess of salts in water or in soil causes growth inhibition, and negatively affects the productivity of many crops. Application of nitrogen fertilizers may be a way of mitigating the effects of salts on plants. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accumulation of biomass and the chlorophyll pigment content in jackfruit seedlings irrigated with water of increasing salinity level in soil with nitrogen sources. The treatments were distributed in randomized blocks with four replicates and three plants per plot, arranged in a 5 × 3 factorial scheme, related to electrical conductivity levels of the irrigation water of 0.3, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 dS m-1, in soil without nitrogen, with ammonium sulfate and with urea, in a split application 60 and 75 days after sowing. An increase in the salinity of the water increased the salinity levels of soil, which was intensified by a dose of 150 mg of N, mainly when applied in the form of ammonium sulfate, inhibiting dry matter production and chlorophyll content in jackfruit seedlings. The greatest reductions in chlorophyll a and b content occurred in jackfruit seedlings irrigated with water of 4.0 dS m-1 conductivity in the soil without nitrogen fertilization. Urea is the most suitable nitrogen source for the production of seedlings under conditions of high salinity.

Abstract Background: Hydrogen gas (H2) is a newly-discovered signaling molecular that plays an important role in plants. This study investigated physiological and molecular mechanisms of hydrogen-rich water (HRW)-mediated beneficial effects on maize roots exposed to saline stress. Results: The results showed that growth of maize seedlings treated with 150 mM NaCl was greatly reduced. Under saline stress, 50% HRW diminished lipid damage in root which was confirmed by malondialdehyde (MDA) content assay and root histochemical staining, and the decreased activities of dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD) further verified the reduced oxidant damage in roots cells under saline stress. HRW up-regulated the expression of ZmSOS1, ZmSKOR, and especially CDPK21 under saline stress, and it also stimulated the activities of PM H+-ATPase and tonoplast H+-ATPase and H+-PPase in maize roots. Thereby, Na+ content was decreased and K+ uptake was increased with the application of HRW. Conclusion: In summary, under saline stress, exogenous HRW application on maize roots up-regulated the key genes expression, improved H+-transport activity and thereby maintained the Na+/K+ balance, diminished oxidant damage and therefore promoted the root growth and biomass accumulation. Our results suggested exogenous HRW treatment on maize could improve root development under saline conditions and might be applied to alleviate salinity stress.

The production of cauliflower and other brassicas has been impacted worldwide due to the occurrence of the disease clubroot,caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae (Wor.). Therefore, it is necessary to search for disease management strategies that may contribute to reducing the losses caused. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects ofdoses of castor bean cake(CK) on the severityof the disease and on the growth of cauliflower plants. Two experiments were carried out in a greenhouse where, in tubes and pots, respectively. In the first one, the effects of CK doses (0, 10, 20 and 40 Mg ha-1) on the disease incidence and dry mass of the aerial part of plants (DMAP) were evaluated.In the second, theeffects of thedoses of CK (0, 10, 20, 30 and 40 Mg ha-1) on disease severity, root attributes and biomass accumulation in plants were evaluated. Significant differences were observed in incidence, which decreased, and DMAP, that increased,as a function of doses. There were decreases in the severity of the disease and increasesin the growth of healthy roots. In addition, positive effects on plant height, number of leaves and dry mass of leaves, stemsand roots were observed. It is concluded that the use of castor bean cake was promising and further studies should be performed under field conditions and with longer cycle times

Jambu is a vegetable, widely consumed in the Brazilian North Region, both in typical foods and medicinal herb. Despite its versatility, there are uncountable challenges in relation to its cultivation, especially with regard to the availability of information on nutritional management, such as the lack of data on the effect of liming associated with the supply of nitrogen (N) on the production performance of the crop. Thus, the effect of nitrogen fertilization and liming on growth, production, physiological responses and post-harvest quality of the yellow-flowered variety jambu was evaluated. The experimental design was randomized in factorial blocks (6 x 2), with five repetitions. The treatments consisted in the combination of six doses of N (0; 60; 90; 120; 150 and 180 kg ha-1) with and without liming application (0 and 70% V). The variables of growth, production, gas exchange and post-harvest quality of jambu were evaluated. Standardly, there was interaction between N-dose and liming factors for most of the analyzed variables, except for titratable acidity and total soluble solids and titratable acidity ratio. In general, the increasing of N doses combined with liming positively affected growth, production, physiological responses and post-harvest quality, and it was observed that in the 170 kg ha-1 dose of N higher response was obtained in the biomass accumulation of the aerial part and in the 180 kg ha-1 dose of N maximum production of inflorescences. Therefore, the use of correctives associated with nitrogen fertilization is recommended to obtain more significant production and quality of jambu.
