Initial performance of maize in response to NPK fertilization combined with Herbaspirillum seropedicae
The inoculation with plant growth-promoting bacteria can be a technological approach useful for increasing the production of maize. The objective of this study was to evaluate the initial performance of maize in response to application of doses of NPK combined with the inoculation of the diazotrophic bacteria Herbaspirillum seropedicae in an greenhouse experiment. The experiment consisted of six fertilizer levels: 0, 25, 50, 75, 100 and 200% of the recommended dose of NPK applied to maize inoculated and non-inoculated with H. seropedicae. At 30 days after the treatment application, the growth characteristics and nutritional status of the plants were evaluated. Plant development was influenced by fertilization, but it was enhanced by combination with the bacteria, which resulted in significant increases in the dry mass of shoots (7%) and leaf area (9%) when compared with non-inoculated plants. The results showed increases in the concentration of N (11%), P (30%) and K (17%) of maize plants in response to bacterial inoculation together with NPK compared with plants that were applied fertilize only. The greater consistency and stability response of the host plant to bacterization in the presence of chemical fertilizer indicate a promissory biotechnological approach for improving the initial growth and adaptation of maize to the cultivation environment

Desenvolvimento da aveia branca e disponibilidade de fósforo em razão da aplicação de silicato de potássio
A aplicação de silicato de potássio pode aumentar a disponibilidade de fósforo no solo, além de influenciar no crescimento da aveia branca. Objetivou-se neste trabalho avaliar o efeito da aplicação de doses de silicato de potássio no solo no desenvolvimento da aveia branca e na disponibilidade de fósforo. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente ao acaso, em esquema fatorial 2 x 4, com seis repetições. Os tratamentos foram 20 e 200 mg dm-3 de P2O5 combinados com 0, 150, 300 e 450 mg dm-3 de Si, aplicados por ocasião da semeadura. Após a colheita, determinaram-se a matéria seca de folhas + colmos, das panículas e o total da parte aérea. A palha das panículas foi separada para avaliação dos teores de P e Si nas folhas + colmos, grãos e palha das panículas. As concentrações de Si e P no solo foram avaliadas após colheita das plantas. A aplicação de silicato aumenta os teores de Si no solo e influencia na maior disponibilidade de fósforo. A matéria seca de folhas + colmos é incrementada pelo silicato quando os teores iniciais de P são baixos. Mesmo com a dose elevada de P, a aplicação de silicato aumenta a disponibilidade de P no solo e a absorção pelas plantas. Os teores de Si na palha das panículas, folhas + colmos e grãos são influenciados pela maior disponibilidade do elemento no solo
