Strobilurins are fungicides with beneficial physiological effects on crop yield due to promotion of net carbon assimilation, nitrate reductase enzyme activity, stress tolerance and hormonal balance. The carboxamides complement the action of the strobilurins when applied alternately or together. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of application of pyraclostrobin, azoxystrobin and boscalid on grafted and ungrafted Japanese cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) in order to analyze the effects of these fungicides on plant physiology and increased fruit production. The experimental design was completely randomized in a 2 × 5 factorial scheme, with grafted and ungrafted cucumber plants and 5 fungicide treatments: control; azoxystrobin 60 g a.i ha −1 ; boscalid 50 g a.i ha −1 ; pyraclostrobin 50 g a.i ha −1 ; and boscalid 100 g a.i ha −1 + pyraclostrobin 50 g a.i ha −1 , applied 18 days after transplanting and then at intervals of seven days. The effect of the treatments was evaluated based on the average yield and fruit mass, in addition to observations of gas exchange, lipid peroxidation, and the activities of peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, catalase and nitrate reductase. Based on the results obtained, it was concluded that the fungicide treatments resulted in different responses between the grafted and ungrafted plants. The physiological benefits were more evident in the grafted plants treated with pyraclostrobin or boscalid alone, and these benefits manifested in terms of fruit production and increased the activity of the antioxidative system, thereby reducing stress. The higher productivity probably occurred due to the better physiological performance of these plants, mainly at the beginning of development, presenting greater activity of the enzyme nitrate reductase, in addition to the higher net CO 2 assimilation and carboxylation efficiency.
ResumoO trabalho avaliou o efeito de estrobilurinas, boscalida, reguladores e extratos vegetais na qualidade físico-química de frutos de tomateiro (Solanum lycopersicum L.), híbrido Giuliana. Os frutos de cada tratamento foram selecionados e separados em 4 repetições: testemunha, piraclostrobina, boscalida, piraclostrobina + boscalida, IBA + GA 3 + cinetina, GA 4+7 + benzilaminopurina e extrato vegetal. A primeira aplicação foi realizada 30 dias após o transplantio e as demais, a cada 15 dias. As avaliações foram: perda de massa, acidez titulável (AT), sólidos solúveis (SS), relação SS/AT, pH, teor de ácido ascórbico, textura, açúcares solúveis totais (AST), atividade da pectinametilesterase (PME) e poligalacturonase (PG). O teor de SS, responsável pelo sabor do fruto, variou em função dos tratamentos, sendo o maior para GA 4+7 + benzilaminopurina e o menor para a testemunha. O mesmo aconteceu com a relação SS/AT. Os frutos permaneceram por 9 dias em bancada, em temperatura ambiente e ao final desse tempo, alguns tratamentos ainda apresentavam frutos ótimos para o consumo, destacandose o tratamento com boscalida, que apresentou menor perda de massa, seguido pela piraclostrobina. Assim, pode-se concluir que a aplicação dos tratamentos não alterou os valores de pH, AT e AST dos frutos. Notou-se maior atividade da PME nos tratamentos com boscalida e com a mistura de boscalida e piraclostrobina, ao mesmo tempo, se constatou menor atividade da PG nos tratamentos testemunha e piraclostrobina, indicando que alguns produtos aceleraram o processo de desmetilação das pectinas pela PME, facilitando a ação da PG. Palavras-chave: Solanum lycopersicum, estrobilurinas, boscalida, reguladores vegetais, pós-colheita AbstractThe present work evaluated the effect of strobilurins, boscalid, plant growth regulators and vegetal extracts on the physico-chemical quality of tomato fruits (Solanum lycopersicum L.), hybrid Giuliana. The fruits from each treatment were selected and separated in 4 repetitions: control, pyraclostrobin, boscalid, pyraclostrobin + boscalid, IBA + GA 3 + kinetin, GA 4+7 + benzylaminopurine and vegetal extract. The first application was carried out at 30 days after transplant and the following at every 15 days. The evaluations were: weight loss, titratable acidity (TA), soluble solids (SS), SS/TA relation, pH, ascorbic acid content, texture, total soluble sugars (TSS), activity of pectin methyl esterase (PME) and polygalacturonase (PG). The SS content, responsible for fruit flavor, varied accordingly to the treatment, being highest for GA 4+7 + benzylaminopurine and lowest for the control. The same occurred regarding the SS/AT relation. The fruits were kept on the shelf for 9 days, at room temperature, being that at the end of this period several treatments still presented fruit in optimal consumption conditions, notably the boscalid treatment, which presented lowest weight loss, followed by pyraclostrobin. Therefore, it can be concluded that the application of the treatments did not modify the values for pH, AT...
ResumoEste trabalho teve como objetivo estudar os efeitos fisiológicos da piraclostrobina, boscalida, reguladores vegetais e extrato vegetal no acúmulo de carboidratos durante o desenvolvimento de plantas de tomateiro (Solanum lycopersicum L.), híbrido Giuliana, em condições de ambiente protegido. Os tratamentos estudados foram: T1-testemunha; T2-piraclostrobina 0,2 g L-1 e T7-extrato vegetal 100 mg L -1 . A curva de acúmulo de carboidratos foi realizada com cinco amostras, em intervalos de 20 dias entre as avaliações, sendo a 1ª avaliação realizada aos 30 dias após o transplantio, no dia da primeira aplicação dos tratamentos. A cada coleta as plantas foram separadas em caule, folha e frutos, nos quais foram avaliados os teores de açúcares solúveis totais, açúcares redutores e sacarose. Também foram avaliados os efeitos dos tratamentos no teor de clorofila e nas trocas gasosas. O delineamento experimental adotado foi inteiramente casualizado, com quatro repetições e seis avaliações destrutivas ao longo do desenvolvimento, sendo uma planta por unidade experimental em cada amostragem. A piraclostrobina e a boscalida aplicados isolados e/ou combinados favoreceram o incremento de carboidratos nas folhas, caules e frutos de tomate 'Giuliana'. Palavras-chave: Solanum lycopersicum L., estrobirulina, piraclostrobina, boscalida, trocas gasosas AbstractThis work had the purpose to study the physiological effects of pyraclostrobin, boscalid, plant growth regulators and plant extract on the accumulation of carbohydrates during the development of tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum L.), hybrid Giuliana, in protected environment conditions. The treatments were:+ benzylaminopurine 100 mg L -1 and T7-plant extract 100 mg L -1 . The carbohydrate accumulation curve was accomplished with 5 samples, at 20-day intervals between evaluations, the 1 st evaluation being carried out at 30 days after transplantation, on the day of the first treatment application. At each sampling the plants were separated in stem, leaves and fruits, of which the contents of total soluble sugars, reducing sugars and saccharose were evaluated. The effects of the treatments on chlorophyll content and gas exchanges were also evaluated. The experimental design was completely randomized, with 4 repetitions and 6 destructive evaluations during the development, with 1 plant per experimental unit for each sampling. The pyraclostrobin and boscalid applied in isolation and/or combined favor the increase of carbohydrates in leaves, stems and fruits of tomato hybrid Giuliana.
Grafting induces significant changes in the growth and development of plants. Additionally, photosynthesis is directly proportional to light, and the stomatal aperture decreases with decreases in irradiance. The present study aimed to evaluate daily gas exchange rates and the response curve of the CO 2 assimilation rate as a function of photosynthetic photon flux density in grafted and non-grafted Japanese cucumber plants with the objective of studying the underlying physiology. Two similar experiments were conducted in 2009 and 2010. The Japanese cucumber hybrid 'Taisho' was grafted on the pumpkin hybrid 'Excitte Ikki' using the tongue approach method. The results indicated that grafting affected photosynthetic metabolism. As a result of this metabolic change, the grafted plants had a higher net CO 2 assimilation rate, a lower maximum quantum yield of photosynthesis and a higher transpiration rate than the non-grafted plants. Furthermore, the non-grafted plants appeared to be more sensitive to environmental conditions, as they showed a higher water use efficiency, indicating an improved water saving capability a lower saturation point of photosynthesis by light than the grafted plants. This result suggests that grafted plants tend to tolerate higher radiance levels than non-grafted plants.
Until recently, fungicides were used exclusively for disease control; however observations of physiological effects brought a new concept to the use of these products. Strobilurins have positive physiological effects on crop yield, due to the increase of liquid photosynthesis and better hormonal balance. However, boscalid complements the action of these fungicides, applied alternately or together. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of strobilurins (azoxystrobin and pyraclostrobin), boscalid and the mixture of these on the physical-chemical quality of net melon fruits (Cucumis melo var. Reticulatus). The experiment was conducted in the municipality of São Manuel (SP), using the hybrid of Cantaloupe M2-308 net melon, the experimental design was in randomized blocks with five replicates. The treatments used were: T1 -control; T2 -azoxystrobin 60g ha -1 of active principle (a.p.); T3 -boscalid 75g ha -1 of the a.p.; T4 -pyraclostrobin 50g ha -1 of the a.p.; T5 -boscalid (37,5g ha -1 ) of the a.p. + pyraclostrobin (25g ha -1 ) of the a.p. The first application of the treatments was carried out at fourteen days after the transplanting of the seedlings and the others at seven day intervals, totaling eight applications throughout the cycle. Two fruits of each plot were collected, which were identified for analysis in the laboratory. The following characteristics were evaluated: fresh fruit mass; mesocarp thickness, pulp texture, peel trajectory, pH, titratable acidity, soluble solids and the ratio. The results were submitted to analysis of variance and the averages compared by the Tukey test at 5% probability using the SISVAR program. The fruits of the plants treated with boscalid 75g ha -1 were the ones that showed higher concentration of soluble solids and low titratable acidity, resulting in a better ratio. Despite the lower value, the fruits of the plants treated with pyraclostrobin 50g ha -1 showed a high ratio value, besides presenting higher value for pulp texture. The mixture of boscalid (37.5g ha -1 ) + pyraclostrobin (25g ha -1 ) also showed high values of soluble solids which resulted in a good "ratio" value. Key words: Cucumis melo var. reticulatus. Post-harvest. Soluble solids. "Ratio".

Incompatibility reactions of grafted plants are triggered at the moment of grafting and/or at the early stages of re-establishment vascular connections plants; moreover, incompatibility may occur after years in orchard. The objective of this study was to evaluate the gas exchange, growth and ion concentrations on early stage after grafting to atemoya scion (Annona x atemoya Mabb.), an interspecific hybrid between cherimoya (Annona cherimola Mill.) and sweetsop (Annona squamosa L.), commonly used in food industry and for 'in natura' consumption, grafted onto biribá rootstock [Annona mucosa (Bail.) H. Rainer] and Annona emarginata (Schltdl.) H. Rainer var. terra-fria and mirim rootstocks to elucidate the physiological mechanisms between grafted plants. Different types of rootstocks evaluated caused variations on scion gas exchange 60 days after grafting (DAG), and these variations reflected in changes in growth at 90 DAG, which was also influenced by differential ion accumulation for each rootstock. The biribá rootstock demonstrated an increase in net carbon assimilation related to carboxylation efficiency and transpiration; however, this rootstock did not result in increased water-use efficiency. The rootstocks exhibited differences in scion leaf ion accumulation, particularly phosphorus and potassium, in biribá and araticum-de-terra-fria, respectively. We concluded that biribá rootstocks increased gas exchange and ion concentration in the atemoya scion, which were reflected directly in the vegetative growth of the scion, indicating that the physiological changes caused by this rootstock to scion do not trigger early incompatibility.
-This study aims to investigate the gas exchanges of different species of Annonaceae due to environmental variations provided by different types of crop protection. 'Araticum-de-terra-fria', 'araticummirim', 'biribá' and atemoya seedlings were cultived in three different crop protections: nursery, greenhouse and warm house. Gas exchanges were obtained in six plants, from 9:00 am to 11:00 am, with IRGA, LI-6400, at 180 Days After Transplanting. The different types of crop protection had a direct influence on gas exchanges of these species. Thus, nursery provided suitable conditions for 'araticum-de-terra-fria', 'araticum-mirim' and 'biribá', increasing their gas exchanges. To atemoya the best crop protection was the greenhouse. Index terms: Photosynthesis, environmental condition, Annona emarginata, Annona mucosa, Annona squamosa L. x Annona cherimola Mill. TROCAS GASOSAS EM ESPÉCIES DE ANNONACEAE EM DIFERENTES PROTEÇÕES AMBIENTAISRESUMO -Objetivou-se investigar as trocas gasosas de diferentes espécies Annonaceae em função de variações ambientais proporcionadas por diferentes tipos de cultivos protegidos. Mudas de araticum-de-terrafria, araticum-mirim, biribá e atemoia foram cultivadas em três diferentes condições ambientais: viveiro, casa de vegetação e estufa. As avaliações de trocas gasosas foram feitas com seis plantas, das 9 às 11h, através do IRGA, LI-6400, aos 180 dias após o transplante. Os diferentes tipos de cultivo tiveram influência direta sobre as trocas gasosas dessas espécies. Assim, o viveiro proporcionou condições mais adequadas para o 'araticum-de-terra-fria', 'araticum-mirim' e 'biribá', incrementando suas trocas gasosas. Já para atemoia, o melhor ambiente de cultivo foi à casa de vegetação.
"Araticum-de-terra-fria" (Annona emarginata (Schltdl.) H. Rainer) has been consider a good alternative in rootstock production for the main commercial Annonaceae species. Although this species develops in different soil and climate conditions, there is no understanding by the physiological responses of this species at different nutritional levels. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of different ionic strengths on development of vegetative species known as "Araticum-de-terra-fria". It was evaluated in seedlings grown in different ionic strengths (25% I, 50% I, 75% I and 100% I) of the complete nutrient solution Hoagland and Arnon (1950) nº 2, for 140 days, the following characteristics: Gas Exchange (CO2 assimilation rate, stomatal conductance, internal CO2 concentration, transpiration rate, water use efficiency, Rubisco carboxylation efficiency); Vegetative growth characteristics (diameter, leaf number, dry matter); Physiological Indexes (leaf area ratio, specific leaf area, relative growth rate, net assimilation rate, leaf weight ratio) and Ionic Accumulation (nutrients leaf analysis). Seedlings grown under 50% I showed the highest values of Leaf CO2 assimilation rate, water use efficiency, carboxylation efficiency, growth, relative growth rate, net assimilation rate and ionic accumulation in the total dry matter. So it is concluded that "Araticum-de-terra-fria" seedlings grown under intermediate nutrient concentrations of complete nutrient solution Hoagland and Arnon (1950) nº 2, explored more adequately their physiological potential that justify their adaptation in different nutritional conditions and allow reducing the amount of mineral nutrition of seedlings production.
