    A supercritical series analysis for the generalized contact process with diffusion

    Full text link
    We study a model that generalizes the CP with diffusion. An additional transition is included in the model so that at a particular point of its phase diagram a crossover from the directed percolation to the compact directed percolation class will happen. We are particularly interested in the effect of diffusion on the properties of the crossover between the universality classes. To address this point, we develop a supercritical series expansion for the ultimate survival probability and analyse this series using d-log Pad\'e and partial differential approximants. We also obtain approximate solutions in the one- and two-site dynamical mean-field approximations. We find evidences that, at variance to what happens in mean-field approximations, the crossover exponent remains close to ϕ=2\phi=2 even for quite high diffusion rates, and therefore the critical line in the neighborhood of the multicritical point apparently does not reproduce the mean-field result (which leads to ϕ=0\phi=0) as the diffusion rate grows without bound

    Avaliou-se silagens de Leucena (Leucaena leucocephala) e Gliricídia (Gliricídia sepium), produzidas em tubos de PVC, com 7, 14, 28 e 56 dias de fermentação, determinando-se os valores de matéria seca (MS), proteína bruta (PB), fibra em de tergente neutro (FDN), fibra em detergente ácido (FDA), extrato etéreo (EE), carboidratos não estruturais (CNE), digestibilidade in vitro da matéria seca (DIVMS) e pH. Os teores médios de MS, PB, FDN, FDA, DIVMS, pH e CNE apresentaram diferenças significativas entre as espécies forrageiras, não diferindo em relação ao teor de EE. Houve diferenças significativas para todos os parâmetros avaliados, exceto a MS, quando avaliados em função do tempo de incubação. As silagens de leucena e gliricídia apresentaram teores médios de MS (28,24 e 28,20%, respectivamente) inferiores a faixa recomendada como requisitos para a confecção de uma boa silagem. As silagens em estudo apresentaram altos níveis de PB, no entanto apresentaram baixa digestibilidade. Os valores de pH para ambas silagens foram elevados em todos os tempos de incubação, o que pode prejudicar o processo fermentativo

    The flood cycle of floodplain forests and topographic variations are important factors of diversification and morphological and ecophysiological adaptations of the plant community. Pentaclethra macroloba is a hyperdominant species adapted to flood variations. The objective of this study was to characterize the P. macroloba population structure between environments with high topography, flooded only during the rainy season and peak flood of the river, (high várzea-HV) and low topography with daily flood (low várzea-LV). The study was carried in the Mazagão Experimental Field, Brazil. Four plots of 1 ha were installed in each environment. All individuals with DBH ≥ 5 cm were measured and georeferenced. ANOVA test, 0.05% probability, was applied to verify the structural differences between two environments. The HV had higher population density (51.2 individuals.ha-1) compared to the LV (36.7 individuals.ha-1), although without significance. Basal area was higher in the HV (10.42 m²) in comparison with LV (5.90 m²), with significant difference (F = 7.13, p = 0.00795). The maximum DAP of HV was 67 cm with mean of 24 cm. The LV presented maximum DBH of 42 cm with mean of 21 cm, showing structural difference between the two environments (F = 6.22, p = 0.0131). The aggregation index showed high aggregation in the LV (R = 0.89) than in the HV (R = 0.79), differing significantly between the two environments (F = 11.31, p = 0.0008). Frequency and time of flooding are ecological drives that structure the population of pracaxizeiro causing morphological and ecophysiological adaptations to the individual

    Regeneração de Passiflora suberosa em suspensão celular.

    O gênero Passiflora é o maior e o mais importante da família Passifloraceae por abrigar as principais espécies exploradas comercialmente no mundo. Muitas espécies são cultivadas para a produção de sucos, consumo in natura, extração de substâncias de interesse farmacológico e fins ornamentais, mas a presença de patógenos de solo que vêm dizimando os cultivos. Uma alternativa é a hibridação interespecífica, ou seja, cruzamentos convencionais, de seleção ou cultivares comerciais, com as espécies silvestres na produção de porta-enxertos resistentes, porém esses híbridos sexuais quando obtidos têm apresentado baixa fertilidade. Desta forma, uma alternativa viável é a produção de porta-enxertos tetraplóides com genes de resistência aos patógenos pela técnica da hibridação somática. Contudo, para isto são necessários protocolos eficientes de regeneração das espécies parentais diplóides a patir de células individuais. Assim, o objetivo desse trabalho foi estabelecer um protocolo de regeneração de plantas a partir de células em suspensão da espécie de P. suberosa. Para tanto, calos MR13 BIO oriundos da Embrapa de Mandioca e Fruticultura Tropical de Cruz das Almas/BA foram submetidos ao meio de cultura MS (Murashige e Skoog) suplementado com os reguladores de crescimento BAP 1,0 mg/L ou 2,0 mg/L; KIN 1,0 mg/L ou 2,0 mg/L para a obtenção de calos friáveis no Laboratório de Cultura de Tecidos Vegetais da unidade experimental Horto Florestal da Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana/BA. O melhor resultado, BAP 2,0 mg/L, foi submetido aos testes contendo balanço de fitorreguladores: MS + BAP 2,0 mg/L + ANA 0,5 mg/L + Kin 1,0 mg/L ou MS + AIA 2,5 mg/L + ANA 0,5 mg/L +Kin 1,0 mg/L, suplementado com agar 6% e, ao teste de culturas de células em suspensão, na ausência de luz, em meio MS na metade da concentração dos sais, suplementados pelos compostos orgânicos (extrato de malte ou extrato de levedura) e mantidos sob 140 rpm de agitação contínua num volume final de 100 mL em frascos erlenmeyers de 250 mL de capacidade. As células colocadas em suspensão no meio líquido suplementado com extrato de malte foram capazes de regenerar de plantas inteiras de P. suberosa, a partir de células diplóides, num prazo de 60 dias na ausência de luz.Disponível em: Acesso em: 02 mar. 201

    This study aimed to determine the rating of perceived exertion (RPE) values corresponding to the blood lactate concentration (BLC) training zone boundaries (2 and 4 mmol.L-1) in moderately trained runners using the Borg CR-10 scale. Moderately trained runners (n = 95) performed a submaximal incremental test on a treadmill, recording BLC and RPE at every stage. Simple linear regression analysis was used to determine the RPE values corresponding to the BLC training zone boundaries, which revealed that RPE was significantly and strongly correlated with BLC (r= 0.821; P< 0.001; R2= 0.675; adjusted R2= 0.674; standard error of estimate= 1.18). The prediction equation (RPE= 1.092 7 BLC + 2.143) was obtained and RPE values at the BLC training zone boundaries of 2 mmol.L-1 and 4 mmol.L-1 calculated as 4.3 (95% CI, 3.9- 4.7) and 6.5 (95% CI, 6.0-7.1), respectively. In conclusion, the RPE values at the BLC training zone boundaries of 2 mmol.L-1 (4.3) and 4 mmol.L-1 (6.5) were adequately predicted. RPE (4.3 and 6.5) can be used as an affordable tool for controlling intensity in order to maintain the athletes in prescribed zones during training sessions

    Análise espectral de dados SMMR para estudo de padrões de Inundação do Pantanal.

    Inundation seasonal patterns are important in the understanding of tropical floodplain ecosystems dynamics. In this study, we have analyzed data derived from 37-GHz polarization differences observed by the Nimbus-7 Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR). The passive microwave observations, for 10 Pantanal subregioes, provide an robust signature of inundation dynamics in large wetlands such as the Pantanal. The time series was obtained taking into account the differences between vertically and horizontally polarized brightness temperatures providing a sensitive indicator of the surface water against a vegetation land surface background. Each time series was analyzed by applying the gradient pattern analysis on a multiresolution representation obtained from wavelet decomposition /reconstrution technique. The main result have shown similar variability patterns for the following groups of subregions: (i) Miranda and Piquiri; (ii) Negro and Nhecolandia; (iii) Corixo, Paraguay, Cuiabá and Taquari fan; and (iv) Taquari river and Nabileque. Some hydrological aspects are discussed in order to understand the clusterization found from our results
