Efeito da densidade de Brachiaria ruziziensis na germinação carpogênica de escleródios em área naturalmente infestada por Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.
Entre as dificuldades para o controle do mofo branco, está a sobrevivência de escleródios do patógeno Sclerotinia sclerotiorum no solo por vários anos, que dificilmente são afetados por fungicidas ou por várias práticas culturais. Estes escleródios, porém, podem ser mortos por esgotamento após germinação ou parasitismo. Em um experimento realizado em Jataí, GO, avaliou-se a germinação de escleródios e posterior produção de apotécios, em tratamentos sem cobertura do solo, e sob cultivo de Brachiaria ruziziensis estabelecida em março de 2008, com 150, 300, 450 ou 600 pontos de valor cultural (PVC)

Populações de Pratylenchus brachyurus em raízes de soja cultivada após adensamento de Brachiaria ruziziensis.
A palhada de Brachiaria ruziziensis tem sido empregada para o manejo do mofo branco (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum). Contudo, esta forrageira é hospedeira de Praylenchus brachyurus, e não há informações em campo sobre este patossistema forrageira x nematóide. Para verificar esta relação, foi conduzido um experimento em Jataí, GO, na safra 2008/2009
Euclid preparation. XXIV. Calibration of the halo mass function in Λ(ν)CDM cosmologies
Euclid’s photometric galaxy cluster survey has the potential to be a very competitive cosmological probe. The main cosmological probe with observations of clusters is their number count, within which the halo mass function (HMF) is a key theoretical quantity. We present a new calibration of the analytic HMF, at the level of accuracy and precision required for the uncertainty in this quantity to be subdominant with respect to other sources of uncertainty in recovering cosmological parameters from Euclid cluster counts. Our model is calibrated against a suite of N-body simulations using a Bayesian approach taking into account systematic errors arising from numerical effects in the simulation. First, we test the convergence of HMF predictions from different N-body codes, by using initial conditions generated with different orders of Lagrangian Perturbation theory, and adopting different simulation box sizes and mass resolution. Then, we quantify the effect of using different halo finder algorithms, and how the resulting differences propagate to the cosmological constraints. In order to trace the violation of universality in the HMF, we also analyse simulations based on initial conditions characterised by scale-free power spectra with different spectral indexes, assuming both Einstein–de Sitter and standard ΛCDM expansion histories. Based on these results, we construct a fitting function for the HMF that we demonstrate to be sub-percent accurate in reproducing results from 9 different variants of the ΛCDM model including massive neutrinos cosmologies. The calibration systematic uncertainty is largely sub-dominant with respect to the expected precision of future mass–observation relations; with the only notable exception of the effect due to the halo finder, that could lead to biased cosmological inference
Linkage mapping of the Phg-1 and Co-14 genes for resistance to angular leaf spot and anthracnose in the common bean cultivar AND 277
The Andean common bean AND 277 has the Co-14 and the Phg-1 alleles that confer resistance to 21 and eight races, respectively, of the anthracnose (ANT) and angular leaf spot (ALS) pathogens. Because of its broad resistance spectrum, Co-14 is one of the main genes used in ANT resistance breeding. Additionally, Phg-1 is used for resistance to ALS. In this study, we elucidate the inheritance of the resistance of AND 277 to both pathogens using F2 populations from the AND 277 × Rudá and AND 277 × Ouro Negro crosses and F2:3 families from the AND 277 × Ouro Negro cross. Rudá and Ouro Negro are susceptible to all of the above races of both pathogens. Co-segregation analysis revealed that a single dominant gene in AND 277 confers resistance to races 65, 73, and 2047 of the ANT and to race 63-23 of the ALS pathogens. Co-14 and Phg-1 are tightly linked (0.0 cM) on linkage group Pv01. Through synteny mapping between common bean and soybean we also identified two new molecular markers, CV542014450 and TGA1.1570, tagging the Co-14 and Phg-1 loci. These markers are linked at 0.7 and 1.3 cM, respectively, from the Co-14/Phg-1 locus in coupling phase. The analysis of allele segregation in the BAT 93/Jalo EEP558 and California Dark Red Kidney/Yolano recombinant populations revealed that CV542014450 and TGA1.1570 segregated in the expected 1:1 ratio. Due to the physical linkage in cis configuration, Co-14 and Phg-1 are inherited together and can be monitored indirectly with the CV542014450 and TGA1.1570 markers. These results illustrate the rapid discovery of new markers through synteny mapping. These markers will reduce the time and costs associated with the pyramiding of these two disease resistance genes
Euclid preparation TBD. The effect of baryons on the Halo Mass Function
The Euclid photometric survey of galaxy clusters stands as a powerful cosmological tool, with the capacity to significantly propel our understanding of the Universe. Despite being sub-dominant to dark matter and dark energy, the baryonic component in our Universe holds substantial influence over the structure and mass of galaxy clusters. This paper presents a novel model to precisely quantify the impact of baryons on galaxy cluster virial halo masses, using the baryon fraction within a cluster as proxy for their effect. Constructed on the premise of quasi-adiabaticity, the model includes two parameters calibrated using non-radiative cosmological hydrodynamical simulations and a single large-scale simulation from the Magneticum set, which includes the physical processes driving galaxy formation. As a main result of our analysis, we demonstrate that this model delivers a remarkable one percent relative accuracy in determining the virial dark matter-only equivalent mass of galaxy clusters, starting from the corresponding total cluster mass and baryon fraction measured in hydrodynamical simulations. Furthermore, we demonstrate that this result is robust against changes in cosmological parameters and against varying the numerical implementation of the sub-resolution physical processes included in the simulations. Our work substantiates previous claims about the impact of baryons on cluster cosmology studies. In particular, we show how neglecting these effects would lead to biased cosmological constraints for a Euclid-like cluster abundance analysis. Importantly, we demonstrate that uncertainties associated with our model, arising from baryonic corrections to cluster masses, are sub-dominant when compared to the precision with which mass-observable relations will be calibrated using Euclid, as well as our current understanding of the baryon fraction within galaxy clusters

Euclid preparation. XXIV. Calibration of the halo mass function in CDM cosmologies
Euclid's photometric galaxy cluster survey has the potential to be a very
competitive cosmological probe. The main cosmological probe with observations
of clusters is their number count, within which the halo mass function (HMF) is
a key theoretical quantity. We present a new calibration of the analytic HMF,
at the level of accuracy and precision required for the uncertainty in this
quantity to be subdominant with respect to other sources of uncertainty in
recovering cosmological parameters from Euclid cluster counts. Our model is
calibrated against a suite of N-body simulations using a Bayesian approach
taking into account systematic errors arising from numerical effects in the
simulation. First, we test the convergence of HMF predictions from different
N-body codes, by using initial conditions generated with different orders of
Lagrangian Perturbation theory, and adopting different simulation box sizes and
mass resolution. Then, we quantify the effect of using different halo-finder
algorithms, and how the resulting differences propagate to the cosmological
constraints. In order to trace the violation of universality in the HMF, we
also analyse simulations based on initial conditions characterised by
scale-free power spectra with different spectral indexes, assuming both
Einstein--de Sitter and standard CDM expansion histories. Based on
these results, we construct a fitting function for the HMF that we demonstrate
to be sub-percent accurate in reproducing results from 9 different variants of
the CDM model including massive neutrinos cosmologies. The calibration
systematic uncertainty is largely sub-dominant with respect to the expected
precision of future mass-observation relations; with the only notable exception
of the effect due to the halo finder, that could lead to biased cosmological
inference.Comment: 24 pages, 21 figures, 5 tables, 3 appendixes
