Alternaria alternata is a potential pathogen of Tectona grandis L.f., was isolated from diseased Tectona grandis L.f. leaves from Nashik and used for the present study. Pathogen was grown on the Czapek-Dox liquid medium substituting or adding different carbon, nitrogen to study cellulolytic and pectolytic enzyme production and total phenol production. The activity of enzyme was observed on the 8th day of incubation period. A great extent of growth variation was observed on different carbon, nitrogen. Among the carbon source) the maximum loss in percentage viscosity maximum in lactose and fructose. While minimum in glucose and dextrose as compared to other nitrogen source. From nitrogen source the cellulolytic enzyme activity was maximum in control and cobalt nitrate followed by similar activity in potassium nitrate and nickel nitrate. While minimum cellulolytic enzyme activity was seen in barium nitrate.. Variation was also observe in pectolytic enzyme activity. the cellulolytic enzyme activity was maximum in glucose while minimum in dextrose as compared to lactose, control and fructose.. From nitrogen source the cellulose activity was maximum in potasium nitrate and minimum in cobalt nitrate as compared to nickel nitrate, barium nitrate and control.

B. cinerea and S. sclerotiorum growing in a nutrient medium on the surface of carrots at 20 °C produced significantly more extracellular pectolytic enzymes when the carrots were exposed to 94–96% relative humidity than when exposed to 98–100% relative humidity. Tests in which these organisms were grown in a nutrient solution containing pectic substances showed that they produced pectolytic enzymes in significant quantities only when readily metabolizable sources of energy (e.g. ethanol, carbohydrates) were not available. These results suggest that the low relative humidity increased enzyme production by concentrating nutrients on the carrot surface to the point where they inhibited growth of the organisms and stimulated enzyme production. Tests also showed that pectolytic enzyme activity on the surface of unwashed carrots stored 9 months at 0–1 °C was substantially higher at 90–95% relative humidity than at 98–100% relative humidity. The results indicated that reduced decay at 98–100% relative humidity was largely due to lower pectolytic enzyme production.

Neste trabalho estudou-se a viabilidade econômica de um plantio de teca (Tectona grandis L.f.) submetido a desbastes. Foram utilizados os seguintes critérios de análise econômica de projetos: valor presente líquido, benefício (custo) periódico equivalente, taxa interna de retorno e valor esperado da terra. A taxa de desconto utilizada foi de 10% a.a. Os indicadores demonstraram a viabilidade econômica do plantio da teca, conforme as condições estabelecidas na análise. O plantio será inviável se houver redução maior que 25% nas receitas ou aumento superior a 35% nos custos, sendo, portanto, mais sensível às variações na redução de receitas que às variações no aumento de custos.

RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar uma análise silvicultural e econômica de plantios clonais e seminais de Tectona grandis em monocultivo e em sistema taungya com Zea mays, no Município de Figueirópolis D'Oeste, MT. O experimento foi instalado em 2010 e compôs um fatorial 2x2 em blocos casualizados e quatro repetições. Avaliaram-se a altura total (H), o diâmetro a 5 cm (DAB) e a 1,3 m (DAP) de altura em relação ao nível do solo, a área basal, o volume, a sobrevivência e a estimativa e tendência de crescimento da teca na idade atual e futura, além da produção de silagem do milho. Foram realizadas análises das receitas e custos totais de implantação e manutenção do sistema. Plantas clonais em monocultivo e no sistema Taungya apresentaram maior crescimento em altura total, DAB e DAP em relação às seminais. No monocultivo e no sistema Taungya, a produção (m3 ha-1) de plantas clonais em relação às seminais foi 33 e 30% superior, respectivamente. Os custos com insumos e atividades de implantação da teca foram superiores e os de manutenção, inferiores no sistema Taungya em relação ao monocultivo, tanto para plantios clonais quanto seminais. No sistema Taungya com plantas clonais, o milho reduziu em 21% os custos totais de implantação e manutenção em relação ao monocultivo; nas plantas seminais, a redução foi de 27%. A teca no sistema Taungya cresce menos, porém apresenta tendência de recuperação após a retirada do milho, cuja presença amortiza custos de implantação e manutenção da teca em plantios clonais e seminais.

The study was conducted to determine the production in vitro and in vivo of cellulases by Botrydiplodia theobromae and Rhizopus oryzae. Isolates of these organisms were obtained from the postharvest decay of sweetpotato tubers. Results revealed that B. theobrornae and R. oryzae which were isolated from postharvest spoilage of sweetpotato tubers produced endo-13-1,4-glucanase and exo-V-1 ,4-glucanase in culture and in fungi-infected tissues of sweetpotato tubers. The optimum temperature and pH for cellulose synthesis and activity were 30°C and pH 6.5, respectively.
