A B S T R A C THigh prices and the scarcity of hardwoods require the use of alternative wood sources, such as the Guapuruvu (Schizolobium parahybae), an arboreal species native to the Atlantic Forest, which has fast growth and high market potential. However, there is no information on its cultivation in the Brazilian Cerrado. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the contribution of mineral fertilization and liming in a Cerrado soil on the initial growth of Schizolobium parahybae. The experiment was set in a randomized block design, with 4 treatments (Cerrado soil; soil + liming; soil + fertilizer; and soil + fertilizer + liming) and 15 replicates. The following variables were analyzed: plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves, total, shoot, leaf, root and stem dry matter, and root/shoot ratio. The obtained data were subjected to the analysis of variance, Tukey test and regression analysis. During the initial growth, Schizolobium parahybae can be cultivated in a Brazilian Cerrado soil only under mineral fertilization, with no need for soil liming.Crescimento inicial de Schizolobium parahybae em solo de cerrado brasileiro sobre calagem e adubação mineral R E S U M OOs elevados preços e a escassez de madeiras nobres tornam necessário o uso de fontes alternativas de madeira, como guapuruvu (Schizolobium parahybae), espécie arbórea nativa da Mata Atlântica a qual apresenta rápido crescimento e alto potencial mercadológico; todavia, não há informações sobre seu cultivo no cerrado do Brasil; objetivou-se, neste sentido, analisar a contribuição da adubação mineral e da calagem no solo do cerrado sobre o crescimento inicial de Schizolobium parahybae. O delineamento foi em blocos casualizados, com 4 tratamentos (solo do cerrado; solo + calagem; solo + adubo; solo + adubo + calagem) e 15 repetições. As variáveis analisadas foram: altura de planta, diâmetro do caule, número de folhas, massas secas totais da parte aérea, das folhas, da raiz e do caule e relação raiz/ parte aérea. Os dados obtidos foram submetidos à análise de variância, ao teste de Tukey e à análise de regressão. Observou-se, durante o crescimento inicial, que o Schizolobium parahybae pode ser cultivado em solo do cerrado brasileiro apenas com adubação mineral sem a necessidade de calagem do solo.
The aim was to reveal the trend and the pattern of registration of soybean cultivars in Brazil in recent decades and to contrast with future perspectives. This is a study carried out in 2019 at the Regional University of Northwestern Rio Grande do Sul-UNIJUÍ, where data were collected from 1998 to 2018. The online databases of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Food Supply (MAPA) were used, Food and Agriculture Organization (FAOSTAT) and United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), for data collection, the criterion used was that the cultivar was properly registered on the National Register of Cultivars (NRC) platform. In general, the aspects according to each year of launch of the cultivars are in favor of the best performance of the crop. They are correlated in the following modifications: plant architecture, resistance, seed size, indeterminate growth habit, flower colors, pods, hilums, presence of anthocyanin, peroxidase, seed brightness, densities and registered genotypes. With neural networks it was possible to classify 1818 soybean genotypes, divided into 18 profiles, also based on the search for 68 characters presenting 19 trends. With the work it was concluded that the year of launch of the cultivar is associated with: the intrinsic characteristics of the maintainer of the cultivar, the biotechnological event, the characteristics of the growth habit and the colorations of the flower, of the seed pod and of the hypocotyl. As the forecast is that in the coming decades new cultivars will be launched in Brazil, a correct positioning of specific genotypes for different environments is needed. Highlighted Conclusions 1. The profile of traits of soybean cultivars has changed over the decades. 2. Brazilian soybean cultivars can be classified into 18 characteristic profiles. 3. The new cultivars are dependent on changes in the internal and external market.
The objective of this work was to evaluate the application technology and the compatibility of the SfMNPV-6nd baculovirus with surfactants and markers in the mortality of Spodoptera frugiperda second-instar larvae. The compatibility studies were carried out with the brilliant blue (BB) dye and copper oxychloride (CO) markers and with the polyalkylene oxide heptamethyltrisiloxane (PH) and ethoxylated alkylphenol (EA) surfactants mixed with the SfMNPV-6nd biological insecticide. Droplet dispersion was assessed by spraying a SfMNPV-6nd solution on corn plants using flat fan and hollow cone nozzles. The evaluated parameters were: spray deposits, volumetric median diameter (VMD), droplet size, pH of spray solution, and mortality of second-instar S. frugiperda larvae. The PH and EA surfactants present synergism with SfMNPV-6nd and increase S. frugiperda control. The addition of the EA and CO surfactants to the SfMNPV-6nd solution reduces pH values. Droplet density, VMD, spray deposition of the SfMNPV-6nd solution, and mortality of S. frugiperda second-instar larvae do not differ among treatments regardless of the type of nozzle used.
