Litterfall production and nutrient cycling on caatinga woody leguminous.
The knowledge on nutrient cycling through litter is important for the management of the species in agroforestry systems (SAFs), since the litter is an important way of making plant nutrients available to soil. The aim of this work was to evaluate the litterfall production and nutrient cycling of woody species in an agroforestry system of Caatinga. The study was developed in SAF belonging to Embrapa Goats and Sheep, located in the county of Sobral-CE, Brazil. The evaluated species were four native leguminous from Caatinga: Mimosa caesalpiniifolia (sabiá), Mimosa tenuiflora (jurema-preta), Libidibia férrea (jucá) and Poncianella piramydalis (catingueira). To collect the litter, collectors were installed under the tree canopy, using six replicates for each species evaluated
Multiplicação e conservação de orquídeas da Mata Atlântica e Caatinga.
Embora seja possível encontrar orquídeas praticamente em todo o tipo de habitats (exceto nos desertos mais extremos e nas zonas polares), elas atingem a sua máxima diversidade nas regiões tropicais. No entanto, devido a diversos fatores, muitas espécies de orquídeas estão ameaçadas de extinção, tornando-se necessária a adoção de medidas que evitem perdas dentro da família Orchidaceae
Genetic Distance Based On Ssr And Grain Yield Of Inter And Intrapopulational Maize Single Cross Hybrids
The objective of this work was to correlate the genetic distances between the progenitors obtained by microsatellite markers with the grain yield of inter and intrapopulational maize single cross hybrids. Three S 0 populations derived from commercial single cross hybrids were used to obtain 163 hybrids (110 interpopulational and 53 intrapopulational). The two best hybrids and two worst hybrids of each the inter- and intrapopulational crosses were selected and their progenitors maintained through self-pollination of the second ear of each S 0 plant, genotyped with 47 SSRs. The Modified Roger's Distance (MRD) between each pair of S 1 inbred lines, the number of alleles and the polymorphic information content (PIC) of each primer were estimated. The genetic distances between progenitors were correlated with the grain yield of the inter- and intrapopulational hybrids. The number of obtained alleles was 186, with a mean of 3.96 alleles. The PIC varied from 0.49 to 0.80, with a mean of 0.65. The mean genetic distance between all S 1 inbred lines was 0.75, varying from 0.40 to 0.89, indicating the existence of variability between the S 1 inbred lines. The correlation between MRD and grain yield was high and significant for the interpopulational crosses (r = 0.84, P ≤ 0.01) and low and not significant (r = 0.18, P ≥ 0.05) for intrapopulational crosses.5103/04/15507513Ajmone Marsan, P., Castiglioni, P., Fu Sari, F., Kuiper, M., Motto, M., Genetic diversity and its relationship to hybrid performance in maize as revealed by RFLP and AFLP markers (1998) Theor.

Micobiota do solo de uma área de duna na restinga da Marambaia, Rio de Janeiro, RJ.
Este trabalho avaliou a micobiota do solo de uma duna nos terços inferior, médio e superior de encosta, localizada na Restinga da Marambaia, RJ. A área de estudo com aproximadamente 500 m2 está dividida em três terços, com a vegetação variando de arbustiva a arbórea. Foi delimitada uma gleba de dimensões de 50 x 50 m, onde foram abertas cinco minitrincheiras até a profundidade de 10 cm para coleta, sendo coletadas três amostras compostas formadas a partir da reunião de cinco amostras simples para análise do solo e caracterização da micobiota. A fertilidade do solo indicou que o terço inferior apresentou maiores teores de alumínio e menores de nutrientes. As unidades formadoras de colônias de fungos variaram de 4,6 x 103 a 9 x 104 ufc.g-1. Quarenta e nove fungos, num total de 85 isolados, pertencentes a 13 gêneros e 32 espécies foram identificados. Os gêneros mais frequentes foram Penicillium, Aspergillus e Trichoderma. A maior riqueza ocorreu no terço médio, porém uma espécie (Trichoderma pseudokoningi) foi comum entre as áreas. Este trabalho sugere que a Restinga da Marambaia apresenta grande diversidade fúngica
