“…Erythrina fusca a diferencia de otros géneros de leguminosas es frecuentemente producida en los suelos más ácidos e infértiles y prosperan en áreas encharcadas y de mal drenaje (Paterson, 1994), éstas son características de toda la región de selva y donde las especies fijadoras de nitrógeno y de rápido crecimiento no pueden desarrollarse. Los extractos de esta planta poseen propiedades farmacológicas (de Oliveira et al, 2012) y en regiones de Asia, África y la selva peruana se usa como forraje en diferentes formas en la alimentación de ovinos, vacunos y caprinos (Kongmanila et al, 2012;Allard, 2010). Considerando que, en los animales en crecimiento, un incremento en el consumo de proteína conduce a un incremento lineal de la deposición de proteína en músculos (Titgemeyer, 2003) y por tanto un incremento de ganancia de peso (Brosh et al, 2000), la harina de hojas Erythrina (Erytrhina fusca) por su considerable contenido de proteína total (Rios, 1981;Kongmanila y Ledin, 2009) podría llegar a ser una alternativa de forraje para la alimentación de cuyes en la región de Selva Alta.…”

ResumenEl objetivo de este estudio fue determinar el efecto de la harina de hojas de Erythrina sobre los perfiles bioquímicos, parámetros biológicos y tejido hepático de Cavia porcellus. Se utilizaron 75 cuyes machos de 13 días de edad, formándose 5 grupos experimentales con tres repeticiones cada uno. Todos se alimentaron con 100 g/día de King grass y alimento balanceado para cuyes ad libitum. Las hojas con peciolo se secaron y se molturaron a 1 mm de diámetro. La sangre se obtuvo a los 75 días de edad de la vena safena lateral y en suero sanguíneo se determinó perfiles de glucosa, proteína total, albumina, aspartato aminotrasferasa, alanino aminotransferasa, lactato deshidrogenasa y urea. Trozos de hígado se procesaron hasta obtener los cortes histológicos. Los perfiles de proteína total y albumina mostraron regresión lineal positiva (p < 0,05), el rendimiento de carcasa regresión lineal negativa (p < 0,05) y la estructura histológica del hígado no tuvo cambios a medida que incrementó el nivel de harina de Erytrhina en la ración. La Erythrina causó una respuesta contrastante entre los perfiles de proteína total y albumina en sangre y el rendimiento de carcasa y no causó alteración estructural del hígado. Palabras clave: Erythrina; perfiles bioquímicos; parámetros biológicos; tejido hepático. AbstractThe aim of this research was to determine the effect of Erythrine leaves powder on serum biochemical profiles, biological parameters and liver histopathology of Cavia porcellus. 75 thirteen days old male guinea pig distributed in five groups with three replicates each were used. All groups were fed with 100 g/day of king grass and balanced diet ad libitum. Erythrine leaves including petiole were dried, grounded to 1 mm diameter and added to the diet. Blood was obtained from the lateral saphenous vein and in blood serum was measured glucose, total protein, albumin, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase and urea. Liver tissue were processed and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. A positive linear regression in the total protein and albumin (p < 0.05) and a negative linear regression for carcasses (p < 0.05) perfomance and no changes in the liver histologic morphology in relation to the increase of Erythrin leaves flour in the diet were shown. Erythrina caused a contrasting response between total protein and albumin profiles in blood and carcass yield and did not cause structural alteration of the liver.

“…It is most common in tropical and subtropical world regions (Vasconcelos et al, 2003). Currently, there are more than 130 Erythrina spp, of which at least 70 are native to the Americas (Oliveira et al, 2012). It is widely used in reforesting projects in northeastern Brazil because it is a pioneer species that is capable of nitrogen fixation and drought resistance (Lorenzi, 2008).…”

“…It is widely used in reforesting projects in northeastern Brazil because it is a pioneer species that is capable of nitrogen fixation and drought resistance (Lorenzi, 2008). The species has significant economic value due to medicinal properties (Oliveira et al, 2012;Saraiva et al, 2015). However, it is rare in some regions of Brazil due to intense exploitation and suppression of natural occurrence areas.…”

ABSTRACT. Erythrina velutina Willd. (Fabaceae: Papillionoideae) is a pioneer species found in tropical and subtropical regions of the world that has medicinal properties and that is used in reforestation projects. This species is rare in some areas of northeastern Brazil. This study aimed to characterize and compare genetic structures of natural and restored populations of E. velutina, with a focus on the selection of tree seeds. A total of 108 individuals from five natural populations and one restored population were analyzed using ISSR markers, resulting in 407 polymorphic fragments. A high rate of polymorphism was observed in the restored population. The highest genetic variability was identified within populations (82%). Genetic bottleneck tests were significant for the Carmópolis/Rosário do Catete and Laranjeiras natural populations along with the Laranjeiras restored population. Genetic distances significantly correlated with spatial distance. Only the restored population retained unique alleles. Similarly, increased genetic distance was observed in individuals of the restored populations compared to the other populations. Observed genetic variation in both natural and restored populations of E. velutina was moderate, thus enabling selection of divergent trees from those trees supplying seeds. Environmental protection and management of these areas is necessary for the maintenance of these individuals and subsequent reproduction. We recommend suggestions for E. velutina conservation, since the restoration model adopted in this study did not promote the development of the specimens until the reproductive stage in a fashion that aims to augment the soil seed bank supply, as is suggested for pioneer species.

Resumo: Erythrina velutina é uma espécie arbórea nativa do Nordeste Brasileiro, empregada no paisagismo, na regeneração de áreas degradadas e na medicina popular. Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar o crescimento de mudas de Erythrina velutina produzidas em substratos com adubação orgânica. O experimento foi conduzido em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, com parcelas subdivididas no tempo, com cinco repetições, sendo a unidade experimental representada por 20 mudas. O primeiro fator foi constituído por dois substratos (solo de Mossoró-RN + esterco bovino (4:1) e solo de Angicos-RN + esterco bovino (4:1)), e o segundo fator constituído de dois acessos. Ao longo do experimento foram realizadas coletas, para avaliação de crescimento (28, 56, 84, 112 e 140 dias após a semeadura), com intervalos de 28 dias. Em cada coleta, as mudas foram analisadas quanto ao comprimento da parte aérea, ao número de folhas, ao diâmetro de coleto, à área foliar, à massa da matéria seca (caule, folhas, raiz, parte aérea, relação da parte aérea e raiz, e total). Pode-se concluir que os acessos de Erythrina velutina tiveram crescimento rápido e uniforme quando produzidas nos dois substratos (solo de Mossoró-RN + esterco bovino curtido (4:1) e solo de Angicos-RN + esterco bovino curtido (4:1)).Palavras-chave: Fitomassa; Ecofisiologia; Revegetação; Caatinga.Abstract: Erythrina velutina is a tree native to the Brazilian northeast, used in landscaping, regeneration of degraded areas and in folk medicine. The objective of this work was to obtain information on Erythrina velutina of two accessions conducted in substrates with organic fertilization. The experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with split plot with five replications and the experimental unit was represented by 20 seedlings. The first factor was composed of two substrates (sand + cattle manure (4:1) and soil + cattle manure (4:1)) and the second factor consisted of two accessions. Throughout the experiment were five collections of plants for evaluation of growth (28, 56, 84, 112 and 140 days after sowing), with intervals of 28 days. At each sampling date, the following characteristics were analyzed: shoot length, leaf number, basal diameter, leaf area, dry matter (aerial part, branches, leaves, roots, shoots, shoot to root dry weight ratio), leaf area ratio, leaf weight ratio, specific leaf area, absolute growth rate, relative growth rate and net assimilation rate. It can be concluded that accessions of Erythrina velutina grew fast and even when produced in the two substrates consisting of sand and / or soil with added manure.
