GROWTH ANALYSIS OF HYBRID Eucalyptus urograndis (E. grandis x E. urophylla) IN RESPONSE TO SIMULATED DRIFT OF AUXINIC HERBICIDES

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate growth rates of E. urograndis under application of triclopyr and fluroxipyr+triclopyr herbicides. Was used a randomized block design with four replications in a factorial design (3x2x5), corresponding to herbicides (triclopyr and fluroxipyr+triclopyr), both with two doses (0.75 and 1.5% concentrations of 480 g and L-1 for triclopyr and 80+240 g and L-1 for fluroxipyr+triclopyr), plus one control (plants that did not receive herbicide application) and five evaluation dates at 15, 30, 45, 60 and 75 days after application (DAA). At 45 days after seedlings transplant, applications were performed with pressurized carbon dioxide backpack sprayer, equipped with beak tip (XR 110.02) with spray volume of 200 L ha-1 and constant pressure of 35 kgf/cm2. Were evaluated: leaf area (LA), specific leaf area (SLA), leaf area ratio (LAR), leaf weight ratio (LWR), absolute growth ratio (AGR), relative growth ratio (RGR) and net assimilatory ratio (NAR). The drift of triclopyr and fluroxipyr + triclopyr herbicide in the hybrid E. urograndis affect plant development in the beginning of the establishment. At 75 days after simulation drift of herbicides the plants showed characteristics of the symptoms of intoxication. It’s necessary to perform studies after 75 DAA to verify the complete recovery of the intoxication symptoms of E. urograndis hybrid plants resulting from the herbicide drift in the present study.

The aim of work was to verify the effect of different shading levels in escarole crop, during summer in the northwest of Rio Grande do Sul. The experiment was conducted at the Federal University of Santa Maria, Frederico Westphalen RS Campus, in 2015 with Escarola Lisa escarole cultivar. The experimental design was a randomized complete block design with three shading levels (0%, 30%, 50%), with six replications. Growth evaluation were performed in destructive manner every seven days, from transplant to harvest point. From the information obtained, traits were determined: leaf area, leaf area index, leaf area ratio, specific leaf area, leaf weight ratio, biological productivity, absolute growth rate, relative growth rate, net assimilation rate. The data obtained were analyzed by the statistical program Genes, the Tukey test at 5% of error probability. The shading level 30% provided greater leaf area, higher biological productivity and absolute growth rate. However, the leaf area ratio was higher when shading level 50% was tested. However, it can be said that the shading levels favor growth of escarole crop.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different crown diameters on the early growth of eucalyptus intercropped with Brachiaria decumbens in a silvopastoral system. The experiment was conducted in a B. decumbens established pasture, where hybrid eucalyptus urograndis (clone GG100) was planted, spaced 8 x 3 m. A randomized block design was used, with six replicates. Treatments consisted of five crown diameters (0.0, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0 m) surrounding the eucalyptus plants. Five weeding hoes were performed throughout the experiment, according to the different crown diameters, aiming to maintain the eucalyptus plants free from B. decumbens interference. At 90, 180, 270, and 360 DAP, the height and the diameter of the eucalyptus plants were evaluated, and at 360 DAP, surface biomass and leaf area were evaluated. At 90 DAP, it was verified that the non-weeded plants had lower growth, compared to those submitted to crowns. Crown diameters of 2.51 and 2.64 m allowed greater growth in height and diameter at ground level of eucalyptus plants, respectively, in all periods evaluated. Biomass production and leaf area per plant at 360 DAP were also influenced by the different crown diameters. It was concluded that crown diameter around 2 meters provided favorable conditions for early growth of eucalyptus and less involvement in the area occupied by forage.

A salinidade da água de irrigação pode afetar a exploração de cultivos principalmente nas regiões áridas e semiáridas, entretanto, algumas alternativas podem favorecer a exploração agrícola nestas condições. Desse modo, objetivou-se com este trabalho, avaliar a interação entre adubação nitrogenada e a salinidade da água de irrigação sob o crescimento de porta-enxerto de goiabeira ‘Crioula’ em condição de semiárido do nordeste do Brasil. O experimento foi conduzido em tubetes sob condições de ambiente protegido no CCTA/UFCG. Utilizou-se o delineamento experimental em blocos casualizados, com os tratamentos dispostos em esquema fatorial 5 x 4, correspondentes a cinco níveis de condutividade elétrica da água – CEa (0,3; 1,1; 1,9; 2,7 e 3,5 dS m-1) e quatro doses de nitrogênio (70, 100, 130 e 160% de N da dose recomendada para a cultura), com 4 repetições e 5 plantas por parcela. A dose de 70% de N (541,1 mg de N dm-1 de solo) proporciona maior diâmetro de caule de porta-enxerto de goiabeira crioula aos 70 e 145 dias após a emergência (DAE), sobre a área foliar e altura de planta aos 145 DAE e na taxa de crescimento absoluto diâmetro do caule dos 25 a 145 DAE. A irrigação com água cuja salinidade era acima de 0,3 dS m-1 afeta positivamente a razão de área foliar e de forma negativa, o número de folhas, a área foliar e o diâmetro do caule. Houve interação significativa entre os fatores adubação nitrogenada e salinidade da água de irrigação apenas para a variável número de folhas aos 145 DAE.Guava rootstocks growth in salted water and nitrogen levels<pre>Abstract: Salt stress suffered by plants due to concentration of irrigation water salts reduces the ability of exploitation of cultures especially in arid and semiarid regions. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of salinity of irrigation water on the growth of rootstock of guava 'Crioula' associated with increasing doses of nitrogen fertilizer. The experiment was conducted in plastic pots under greenhouse conditions in the CCTA / UFCG. We used the experimental randomized block design, with the treatments in a factorial 5 x 4, corresponding to five levels of electrical conductivity of the water - CEa (0.3; 1.1; 1.9; 2.7 and 3.5 dS m-1) and four nitrogen rates (70, 100, 130 and 160% of the recommended dose N for guava cultivation seedlings cv. Paluma) with 4 replications and 5 plants per plot. The dose of 70 % of N- ( 541.1 mg N dm- 1 of soil ) provides greater production plant leaf area, height 145 DAE , but to stem diameter was significant in both periods studied the rootstock guava cv. Crioula. Irrigation CEa above 0.3 dS m-1 negatively affect the number of leaves, leaf area, stem diameter, leaf area ratio and absolute growth rate of stem diameter.

The objective of this work was to study morphogenic characteristics, and dry matter production of roots and shoots of marandu palisadegrass (Brachiaria brizantha cv. Marandu) submitted to combinations of nitrogen and potassium, in a nutritive solution, employing silica as substrate. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse during the summer. It was used a 5² fractionated factorial scheme with 13 combinations of nitrogen and potassium, which were distributed in a randomized block design, with four replications. The nitrogen × potassium interaction was significant for the number of tillers and leaves, for leaf area, for shoots and root section dry mass, for total length and surface and specific length and surface in the roots. Production of aerial part dry mass positively correlated with the number of tillers and leaves and grass leaf area. Nitrogen rates modulated the root system development, and the root specific length and surface decreased when high rates of nitrogen and potassium were supllied. Nitrogen and potassium influence Marandu palisadegrass morphogenic characteristics, which are determinant for grass dry matter production.

O estudo objetivou avaliar o desempenho de genótipos de plantas de Eucalyptus urograndis (clone 105 e 433) em relação à tolerância à seca, considerando a análise de crescimento das plantas. Para tanto, plantas foram cultivadas em vasos de 8 litros em casa de vegetação. O delineamento foi em inteiramente casualizado, com quatro tratamentos contendo desesseis repetições. O manejo hídrico foi estabelecido com base em dois potenciais mínimos de água (Ψ): -0,03 e -1,5 MPa, através da pesagem diária dos vasos. O desenvolvimento das plantas foi avaliado em coletas a intervalos de 15 dias, iniciando no momento de plantio da muda no vaso até os 60 dias após plantio. Considerando-se o acúmulo de matéria seca total (MS) e o índice de área foliar da planta (IAF) como base para a determinação dos seguintes índices fisiológicos: razão de área foliar (RAF), taxa assimilatória líquida (TAL), área foliar específica (AFE), taxa de crescimento relativo (TCR) e taxa de crescimento absoluto (TCA). Nas condições do experimento, o clone 105 apresentou menor sensibilidade ao déficit hídrico, o que o qualifica como material genético promissor para ambientes sujeitos a estiagem prolongada. Já em condições em que não há restrição hídrica, os dois clones tiveram comportamento semelhantes. UNITERMOS: Eucaliptus urograndis, índices fisiológicos, potenciais hídricos do solo PEREIRA, M. R.

Reduction in leaf area in corn plants during reproduction changes physiological metabolism and consequently the accumulation of dry matter in grains. The aim of this work was to study changes in agronomic characteristics caused by defoliation in corn during the reproduction phase. The experiment was carried out in Uberlândia, Minas Gerais state, in the agricultural year 2007/2008. The experiment was arranged in a randomized block design, consisting of seven treatments: control without defoliation, removal of two apical leaves, removal of four apical leaves, removal of all leaves above spike, removal of four intermediate leaves, removal of all leaves below spike, and removal of all plant leaves, with five repetitions. The genotype used for the evaluations was hybrid NB 7376. Defoliation was carried out when plants were at the growth stage R2. The variables assessed were: yield, density of spikes and corncobs, root resistance and stem integrity. When all leaves above the spike were removed, grain yield was reduced by 20%. Corncob density, stem integrity and root resistance to uprooting were also affected. Spike density was only affected when all plant leaves were removed. The leaf area remaining physiologically active above the spike was found to be most efficient in terms of grain yield.

Sugarcane production should be integrated with crop diversification with a view to competitive and sustainable results in economic, social and environmental aspects. The purpose of this study was to assess the influence of different soil uses during the sugarcane fallow period on the chemical and physical properties of eutroferric Red Latosol - LVef (Oxisol) and Acric Latosol - LVw (Acric Oxisol), in Jaboticabal, São Paulo State, Brazil (21º14'05'' S, 48º17'09'' W, 600 m asl). A randomized block design was used with five replications and four treatments, consisting of different soil uses (crops) in the sugarcane fallow period: soybean only, soybean/fallow/soybean, soybean/millet/soybean, and soybean/sunn hemp/soybean. After two soybean crops, the LVef chemical properties remained at intermediate to high levels; while those of the LVw, classified as intermediate to high in the beginning, increased to high levels. Thus, the different soil uses during the sugarcane fallow period allowed the maintenance of LVef fertility levels and the improvement of those of the LVw. Two soybean crops increased macroporosity in the 0.0-0.1 m layer of the LVef; reduced soil aggregates in the 0.0-0.1 and 0.1-0.2 m layers of both soils, and reduced aggregate stability in these two layers of the LVw. Planting pearl millet or sunn hemp between the two soybean growing seasons promoted the formation of larger soil aggregates in the surface layer (0.0-0.1 m) of the LVw.

O Índice de área foliar (IAF) representa a eficiência na interceptação e utilização da radiação solar pelas plantas. O IAF pode ser obtido de forma direta, determinando-se a área foliar e área ocupada pela planta. Entretanto, métodos indiretos são comumente utilizados para sua estimativa devido a necessidade de praticidade. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a equivalência das estimativas do IAF obtidas por meio de um ceptômetro, pelo método de discos e utilizando imagens digitais. Para tanto, foi conduzido um experimento com a cultura da soja, no delineamento em blocos casualizados, com variação da densidade de plantas, para comparar os valores de IAF obtidos pelos diferentes métodos aos 34 dias após a semeadura (DAS). A comparação foi feita por meio dos coeficientes de equações lineares ajustadas entre os resultados obtidos. O método do disco e do ceptômetro, apresentaram uma boa equivalência entre seus valores. Entretanto, o método que utiliza imagens superestimou o IAF, não apresentando uma boa equivalência de seus valores aos do método de discos e ao ceptômetro.Palavras-chave: ceptômetro, discos foliares, imagens digitais. EVALUATION OF THREE OBTAINMENT METHODS OF FOLIAR AREA INDEX FOR SOYBEAN CROP ABSTRACT:The leaf area index (LAI) represents the interception efficiency and use of solar radiation by plants. IAF can be obtained directly, determining the leaf area and area occupied by the plant. However, indirect methods are commonly used for their estimation because for practicality. The objective of this work was to evaluate the equivalence of the LAI estimates obtained with a ceptometer, using the disc method and digital images. A experiment was conducted with soybean crop, in a randomized block design with plant density variation to compare the LAI values obtained by the different methods at 34 days after sowing (DAS). The comparison was made through the coefficients of linear equations adjusted between the results obtained. The disc and the ceptometer method presented a good equivalence between their values. However, the imaging method overestimated the LAI, not presenting a good equivalence of its values to those of the disc method and the ceptometer.Keywords: ceptometer, leaf discs, digital images.
