Under greenhouse conditions, incorporating ground straw in the soil at rates between 2,240 and 8,970 kg/ha reduced the emergence of alfalfa (Medicago media Pers. cv. Beaver) significantly (P < 0.05) and bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss cv. Magna) slightly, but had no effect on barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Conquest). Rape (Brassica napus L. cv. Target and B. campestris L. cv. Echo) straws were more damaging than wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Manitou) straw. Symptoms of severe nitrogen deficiency appeared early in the growth of barley where straw had been added to the soil. The effect on tillering varied. In one experiment tillers were smaller, in one tillers were larger; but in both, total leaf area produced was much less where 8,970 kg/ha of straw had been added to the soil. Bromegrass showed the same effects but to a lesser degree, probably because of slower growth requiring a smaller supply of nitrogen. Alfalfa growth was apparently unaffected. There was no evidence that the straw of either rapeseed species was more deleterious than wheat straw to crop growth after emergence. It is concluded that straw incorporated in soil affected barley and bromegrass growth by reducing the availability of nitrogen.

Control of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) at Brandon and Lacombe, and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) at Regina and Scott, in Canola (Brassica campestris L. and Brassica napus L.) with postemergence (three- to four-leaf) applications of BAS 9052 (2-[1-(ethoxyimino)butyl]-5-[2-(ethylthio)-propyl]-3-hydroxy-2-cylcohexen-1-one) mixed with Atplus 411F (0.5% vol/vol) were evaluated in 1979 and 1981. Control of barley and wheat was good to excellent with applications at 0.3 or 0.4 kg/ha and seed yields of canola were increased.Key words: Barley, wheat, canola, BAS 9052

El objetivo de este trabajo fue conocer el régimen y riesgo agroclimático de heladas, por su época de ocurrencia y tipo genético, analizar su peligrosidad sobre los cultivos, y observar la tendencia en el período libre de heladas en los últimos 10 años (1996-2005), respecto del período 1975-1995, en Lugo. Se dispuso de un registro histórico de temperaturas mínimas, medidas en el abrigo meteorológico, de treinta y un años para la localidad de Lugo, Provincia de Lugo (lat.: 43° 03’ N; long.: 7° 30’ O y alt.: 480 m). Los resultados mostraron una mayor frecuencia de heladas primaverales (marzo, abril y mayo) que otoñales (octubre y noviembre). El escaso período libre de heladas, en la zona, puede resultar un impedimento para la difusión de cultivos frutícolas de hueso,  debiendo seleccionar aquellas variedades con mayor requerimiento en horas de frío.En la región, la producción hortícola prospera favorablemente, siendo los cultivos más utilizados, Col – Brassica oleracea L - y nabos (nabizas y grelos) – Brassica napus L -, en detrimento de cultivos anuales extensivos, tanto inverno primaverales, como trigo – Triticum aestivum L. o T. vulgare L. -, cebada – Hordeum vulgare L.-, o estivales como maíz – Zea mays L. -, girasol – Helianthus annus L., o soja - Glycine max L.

The phosphorus (P) requirements of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) are well known for all soils in south-western Australia; but the P requirements of field pea (Pisum sativum L.) and canola (Brassica napus L.), which are grown in rotation with wheat on marginally acidic to alkaline soils in the region, are not known. In a glasshouse study, the P requirements of field pea and wheat were compared for 16 soils collected throughout the agricultural region. Ten of the 16 soils were also used to compare the P requirements of canola and wheat. The P was applied as powdered single superphosphate, and yield of dried shoots of 42-day-old plants was measured. The amount of P required to produce 90% of the maximum yield of dried shoots (PR90 values) was used to compare the P requirements of the species. To produce 90% of the maximum yield, field pea required less P than wheat in 5 soils, similar P in 2 soils, and more P in 9 soils. Canola required less P than wheat in all 10 soils. We conclude the P requirements of field pea or canola relative to wheat depend on a complex interaction between plant and soil, particularly for field pea relative to wheat. Per unit of applied P, the P concentration in dried shoots decreased in the order canola > wheat > field pea, indicating the order in which plant roots of the 3 species were able to access P from soil.

A determinação da concentração de compostos no solo por meio de plantas quantificadoras apresenta como principal vantagem detectar somente resíduos biologicamente ativos, não havendo necessidade de instrumentos onerosos e de prévia extração dos resíduos do solo. Dessa forma, este trabalho teve como objetivo selecionar plantas quantificadoras da presença de herbicidas residuais (pré emergentes) para o uso em bioensaios. Utilizou-se delineamento experimental completamente casualizado com arranjo bifatorial 8 x 6, com cinco repetições. O fator A consistiu de espécies cultiváveis e o fator B de herbicidas aplicados em pré emergência. Os resultados evidenciaram que a sensibilidade na detecção do herbicida no solo depende da espécie utilizada. A sensibilidade das espécies Lactuca sativa L. e Raphanus sativus var. sativus L. não permitiu condições de quantificar a presença dos herbicidas atrazina, cloransulam, imazaquin, metribuzin e S-metolacloro. Raphanus sativus var. oleiferus Metzger é potencial quantificador de imazaquin e S metolacloro. Plantas de Curcubita pepo L. são promissoras na bioavaliação de metribuzin. A espécie Cucumis sativus L. mostrou-se potencial bioindicadora de cloransulan e imazaquin. Avena sativa L. apresentou-se como potencial quantificadora de imazaquin e metribuzin. Hordeum vulgare L. pode quantificar o metribuzin e Triticum aestivum L. é promissor na detecção da biodisponibilidade de atrazina.
