ABSTRACTDepending on the cultivar, the use of desiccants in the preharvest can favor maintenance of physiological quality. The objective of the study was to assess the physiological quality of soybean seeds as due to the use of apreharvest desiccant and desiccation time in two harvests (2011/12 and 2012/13). The treatments were five soybean cultivars, two growth stages of application, a control (without desiccant application), and three desiccants (glufosinate-ammonium, carfentrazone-ethyl and paraquat) (2011/12 harvest). In the 2012/13 harvest the carfentrazone-ethyl desiccant was replaced by diquat. The physiological quality of seeds was assessed by the percentage of viability and vigor (cold test, tetrazolium test and accelerated aging test). In 2011/12 harvest, there was an early harvest in six days with the use of glufosinate-ammonium and paraquat desiccants, when desiccation was done in stage R7.1, with maintenance of seed quality; however it was dependent on the cultivar. In the 2012/13 harvest there was no early harvesting due to the presence of rain in the preharvest and the use of desiccation did not affect the physiological quality of the seeds either. Cultivar NA5909 RG was more tolerant to remaining in the cultivation environment and maintained higher viability than 90% and greater vigor of 71% by the cold test compared to cultivar BMX Turbo (2011/12 harvest). It is concluded that desiccation can be a viable alternative to the soybean early harvesting, but it depends on the cultivar, the time of desiccation, the active principle of the desiccant and the absence of rain in preharvest.

The use of high quality soybean seeds (Glycine maxL.) is one of the most important aspects to obtain satisfactory productivity indexes. The desiccation practice is an important idea of the producers to anticipate theharvest and to minimize the rapiddeterioration of seed quality in the field. In this context, the objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of the use of desiccants applied in R7stageon the physiological quality of soybean seeds.The experiment was conducted in experimental area, located in the city of Passo Fundo, Rio Grande do Sul. Four soybean cultivars (FPS Jupiter RR, FPS Paranapanema RR, BRS Tordilha RR and FPS Urano RR) were planted under experimental design, managed according to technical recommendations for the crop.Upon reaching the R7 stage, different desiccation treatments (without desiccation, paraquat, diquat and glufosinate ammonium) were applied to the subplot.The seeds were harvested with a plot harvester and the weight of one thousand seeds, germination test and accelerated aging test were evaluated, being the last two evaluated at 30 and 180 days after harvest. The pre-harvest desiccation at the R7 stage of soybean cultivation did not negatively affect the physiological quality of the seeds and, generally way, for the cultivars FPS Jupiter RR and FPS Urano RR, it was possible to obtain more vigorous seeds at 30 DAC. Under the conditions under which the experiment was conducted, the diquat, paraquat and glufosinate ammonium herbicides can be used for pre-harvest desiccation in the seed production fields.

With the aim of studying the relationship between the physiological quality of soybean seeds submitted to three harvest times and seedling emergence in the field, seeds of cultivars UFV-16, Splendor, Vencedora, Confiança, UFV-18, UFV-TN 105, Garantia and Celeste were harvested at stages R8, R8+15 and R8+30 days. The following tests were performed: accelerated aging, electrical conductivity, emergence in sand, emergence speed index and seedling emergence in the field. Germination and vigor were reduced in seeds harvested at 30 days after stage R8 in all the tests, except for the accelerated aging test, which showed a decline in vigor seeds harvested with a delay of 15 days. Seeds of cultivars UFV-16, Confiança and Garantia showed lower physiological quality in most tests, while the seeds of cultivar Celeste had higher physiological quality than the others. There was similarity between the test results of seed quality and seedling emergence in the field.

Abstract: The physiological quality of seeds depends on the cellular organization and their capacity to mobilize reserves. The goal of this study was to assess the germination and vigor of soybeans seeds of Benso1RR and NA 5909 RG cultivars from desiccated plants or not, by mobilizing reserves. Cultivars from desiccated plants or not, by mobilizing reserves. The plants were desiccated with glufosinate ammonium (GLA) in reproductive stage R7.1 or not (TST). The physiological seed quality was assessed by germination tests, accelerated aging and seedling length. For the mobilization of reserves were assessed within 48 hours of soaking: phytate, protein and soluble sugar contents. In 48 hours of soaking, seeds from desiccated plants in cultivar NA 5909 RG showed lower mobilization of soluble protein and soluble sugar, reflecting low vigor seedlings compared to their controls. For cultivar Benso1RR, in 48 hours of soaking, the application of GLA did not affect the mobilization of soluble protein when compared to control and did not differ as to vigor. It is concluded that the use of the desiccant has negatively influenced the mobilization of soluble protein and soluble sugar for cultivar NA 5909 RG, reflecting a low percentage of germination and low vigor.

Differences in levels of lignin in the plant between conventional and transgenic cultivars RR has been reported by several authors, however, there are few studies evaluating the influence of spraying of glyphosate on the lignin in the plant and RR soybean seeds. The aim of this study was to evaluate the physiological quality of RR transgenic soybean seeds and the lignin contents of plants sprayed with the herbicide glyphosate. The assays were conducted both in greenhouse and field in the municipality of Lavras, MG, in the agricultural year 2007/08. The experiment was arranged in a splitplot design with four replicates, considering the treatments hand weeding and herbicide glyphosate as plots, and five RR soybean cultivars (BRS 245 RR, BRS 247 RR, Valiosa RR, Silvânia RR and Baliza RR) as splitplots. In the greenhouse, the cultivars tested were BRS 245 RR and Valiosa RR in a randomized block design with four replicates. The sprayings were carried out at stages V3, V7 and early R5 (3L/ha). The 1000 seed weight, mechanical injury, germination and germination velocity index, emergence velocity index, accelerated aging, electrical conductivity and water soaking seed test, lignin content in the seed coat, in the stem and legumes were determined. The spraying of glyphosate herbicide, in greenhouse and field, did not alter the physiological quality of seeds and the lignin contents in the plant.

Storage is an important step in the production of soybean seeds, mainly in tropical regions, where high temperatures can drastically reduce seed quality. The storage at cooler temperatures may be a feasible alternative to preserve seed quality during storage. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physiological quality of soybean seeds artificially cooled by a dynamic process and stored in an environment, with non controlled temperature and relativity humidity. Two seed lots of cultivars Monsoy 8757, TMG 115 RR and BRS Valiosa RR were used. After processing and during packaging the seeds were cooled to 18 ºC by a dynamic process. Seed samples were collected after 0, 60 and 120 days of storage, using the following parameters germination, accelerated aging, seedling emergence in sand, speed of emergence index, electrical conductivity, tetrazolium and seed health. Although soybean seeds artificially cooled by the dynamic method may have slightly superior performance in maintaining physiological quality during storage in non-refrigerated warehouse, for lots of high physiological quality, these advantages are not observed.

A aplicação nos estádios V5 e V5+R2+R4 proporcionou sementes com elevada germinação e vigor, no entanto, o armazenamento por 180 dias mesmo sob condições controladas prejudica o potencial fisiológico das sementes.   Palavras-chaves: Glycine max, adubação fosfatada, vigor, armazenamento.   PHYSIOLOGICAL POTENTIAL OF SOYBEAN SEEDS PRODUCED WITH PHOSPHATE FOLIAR FERTILIZER   ABSTRACT: Phosphorus is one of the most limiting macronutrients for soybean productivity, and it may influence the physiological quality of seeds. The focus of this study was to evaluate the effect of foliar fertilization with phosphorus used in different plant stages in productivity and physiological quality of soybean seeds cv. M6410 IPRO. The influence of foliar fertilization was measured in different plant stages of development “V5, R2, R4, V5+R2, V5+R4, R2+R4 e V5+R2+R4” and the dose was 2,0 l ha-1. The physiological quality of seeds was evaluated by germination, first score, rate of germination speed and emergence speed, field conditions emergence, tetrazolium test, seedlings performance, cold test and accelerated aging. The yield components of soybean seeds were not influenced by the period of foliar fertilization application with phosphorus. The application on V5 and V5+R2+R4 stages provided seeds with high germination and vigor. However, storage for 180 days even under controlled conditions reduced the seeds physiological potential.   Keywords: Glycine max, phosphate fertilization, vigor, storage.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of timbó seed coat on the physiological and sanitary quality of soybean seeds. Timbó seeds were collected from mature fruits in the Cerrado. The external layer of the seed coat was removed and crushed in a mill and used in the treatment of soybean seeds. Three lots of soybean seeds were used, from high, medium and low vigor seeds. The treatments were: powder; gel; hydroalcoholic extract; synthetic fungicide (Vitavax® - Thiram 200 sc), and untreated seeds. The physiological quality of the soybean seeds was determined by standard germination, accelerated aging, length, fresh and dry mass of seedlings. Blotter test was used to determine the sanitary quality. The statistical analyze used was a completely randomized 3 × 5 factorial design, considering three seed lots and five treatments. Treatment with the coat seed extract and gel improves the physiological quality of soybean seeds from low vigor lots. The treatment of seeds with gel decreases the incidence of Fusarium and Penicillium genus; and treatment with the powder reduced the incidence of the Cercospora genus.

With the depletion of fossil fuel resources accelerating the search for renewable energy sources, studies on agricultural products containing a significant amount of oil in their compositions have intensified. The objective of this work was to investigate the fatty acid profile and the physiological quality of the oil extracted from niger seeds dried at different temperatures. The seeds were dried at 40, 50, 60, and 70°C, until their moisture content reached 8.5 ± 1% (wet basis). The physiological properties of niger seeds were determined by assessing their germination, germination speed index, mean germination time, cold test, accelerated aging with a saturated solution, emergence percentage, and emergence speed index. The quality of the oil was evaluated using gas chromatography, based on the fatty acid profile. We concluded that drying air temperatures of 40 and 50°C did not compromise the physiological quality of niger seeds. However, the 70°C drying temperature seriously impaired seed quality. The drying temperatures that were used in this study did not substantially alter the fatty acid profile of niger oil.

ABSTRACT Agrobiodiversity is essential for a sustainable food production, and the knowledge of the potential characteristics of landrace seeds may prompt farmers to adopt the habit of seed conservation for this species. This study aimed at categorizing landrace and commercial common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) accessions, according to the physiological quality (viability and vigor) of seeds produced in the field, during two growing seasons, under organic and conventional farming systems. Germination percentage, field emergence, electrical conductivity, accelerated aging, cold test and seedling length were assessed. The landrace bean accessions exhibit diversity in the physiological seed quality, in terms of their viability and vigor. No differences were observed between the farming systems, in relation to the physiological quality of the seeds produced. The categorization of landrace common bean accessions allows to identify those with superior physiological seed quality.

Industrial seed treatment assures uniform coverage of seeds with insecticides, fungicides, micronutrients and bioestimulant at precise dose, however often resulting in higher slurry volume. Furthermore, seeds are coated long periods of time prior sowing and may influence germination and vigor. Thus, the aim of this work was to evaluate the influence of seven industrial seed treatments and their respective slurry volumes on the physiological potential of soybean seeds at 0, 15, 30, 45, 60 and 90 days of storage. In each storage period, the variables germination, accelerated aging test and emergency speed index were evaluated and studied in the repeated measures in time model. The products used were: fungicide (thiabendazole, fludioxonil and mefenoxam), insecticide (thiametoxam), insecticide/nematicide (abamectin), micronutrients (cobalt and molybdenum), bioregulator, drying powder and polymer. High volumes of seed-coating mixtures reduce the physiological quality of soybean seeds over storage. However, the slurry composition also influenced on the maintenance of the seed germination and vigor throughout the storage.
