Vigor de sementes, população de plantas e desempenho agrônomico de soja /

Rossi, Rubiana Falopa, 1986. January 2012 (has links)
Orientador: Cláudio Cavariani / Banca: José de Barros França Neto / Banca: Leila Martins / Resumo: A cultura da soja, em razão de sua importância no agronegócio mundial, é alvo de inúmeras pesquisas no campo fitotécnico na busca por novas informações para elevação da produtividade. O vigor é um dos principais atributos da qualidade fisiológica das sementes a ser considerado na implantação de uma lavoura, pela influência que pode ter no crescimento e no rendimento das plantas. A pesquisa teve como objetivo avaliar o desempenho de plantas de soja e a qualidade das sementes produzidas em diferentes densidades populacionais, em função do nível de vigor das sementes utilizadas. O experimento foi conduzido em duas etapas. A primeira constituiu da fase de campo, mediante delineamento em bloco ao acaso, com quatro repetições, em esquema fatorial 3x3 (densidades populacionais de 7, 12 e 17 pl.m-1 e níveis de vigor das sementes alto, médio e baixo), empregando-se três cultivares de soja. Foram avaliados a população inicial, a data do florescimento, o ciclo, a altura média das plantas e da inserção da primeira vagem, os números médio de vagens por planta e de sementes por vagem, a população final de plantas, em relação à inicial, e a produção de sementes. A segunda etapa foi realizada no laboratório e constou da avaliação das características qualitativas das sementes de soja produzidas na etapa anterior. Foi evidente o efeito do vigor das sementes na emergência de plântulas em campo, sendo superior quando oriundas das sementes de alto vigor. A elevação da densidade de plantas de soja na linha ressalta, positivamente, efeitos dos níveis de vigor no desenvolvimento das plantas.

The vigor is one of the main seed physiological quality characters that has to be considered in the crop establishment, because it can influence the plant growth and final production. This study aimed to evaluate the performance of soybean plants and the quality of seeds produced in different population densities, depending on the level of vigor of the seed sown. The experiment was conducted in two stages. The first one was conducted at the field, in randomized block design, with four replications, in a factorial 3x3 design (densities of 7, 12 and 17 pl.m-1 and levels of seed vigor, high, medium and low), using three soybean cultivars. The following parameters were: initial population, flowering cycle, average height of plants and first pod; average number of pods per plant and seeds per pod; final population of plants (in relation to the initial population); and seed yield. In the second stage, conducted in the laboratory, the quality of the produced seed was evaluated. The effect of seed vigor on seedling emergence in the field was evident, being higher when derived from the seeds of high vigor. The high density of soybean plants in the row highlights positively the effects of vigor levels upon plants development. Seed vigor and plant density on the line have influence on soybean production; increases of 8% and 6% in seed yield were observed in plants from seeds with medium and high vigor, compared to those coming from low vigor. Seed vigor and plant density on the line do not affect the physiological quality of the produced seeds / Mestre

Identification and Localization of Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) and Genes Associated with Oil Concentration in Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] Seed

Eskandari, Mehrzad 13 December 2012 (has links)
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] seed is a major source of edible oil in the world and the main renewable raw material for biodiesel production in North America. Oil, which on average accounts for 20% of the soybean seed weight, is a complex quantitative trait controlled by many genes with mostly minor effects and influenced by environmental conditions. Because of its quantitative nature, the seed oil concentration may have an indirect effect on other economically important and agronomic traits such as seed yield and protein concentration. Increasing the oil concentration in soybean has been given more attention in recent years due to increasing demand for both edible oil and feedstock. To achieve this objective, it is important to understand the genetic control of the oil accumulation and its relationship with other traits. The main objectives of this thesis were to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) and genes involved in oil biosynthesis in soybean. Two recombinant inbred line (RIL) populations were developed from crosses between moderately high oil soybean cultivars with high seed yield and protein concentration. In a population of 203 F3:6 RILs from a cross of ‘OAC Wallace’ and ‘OAC Glencoe’, a total of 11 genomic regions located on nine different chromosomes were identified as associated with oil concentration using multiple QTL mapping (MQM) and single-factor ANOVA. Among the 11 oil-associated QTL, four QTL were also validated in a population of 211 F3:5 RILs from a cross of ‘RCAT Angora’ and ‘OAC Wallace’. There were six oil QTL identified in this study that were co-localized with seed protein QTL and four for seed yield QTL. The oil-beneficial allele of the QTL tagged by marker Sat_020, on Chromosome 9, was positively associated with seed protein concentration. The oil-enhancing alleles at markers Satt001 and GmDGAT2B were positively correlated with seed yield. In this study, three sequence mutations were also discovered in either the coding or non-coding regions of three DGAT soybean genes (GmDGAT2B, GmDGAT2C, and GmDGAT1B) between ‘OAC Wallace’ and ‘OAC Glencoe’ that showed significant effects on some of the traits evaluated. GmDGAT2B showed significant association with seed oil and yield across different environments. The oil-favorable allele of the gene GmDGAT2B from ‘OAC Glencoe’ was also positively correlated with seed yield. GmDGAT2C was associated with seed yield, whereas GmDGAT1B showed significant effects on seed yield and protein concentration. However, neither of these two genes showed any association with seed oil. The yield-enhancing allele of GmDGAT1B showed negative association with protein concentration. The identification of oil QTL that were either positively associated with seed yield and protein or neutral to both traits and the development of new gene-based markers will facilitate marker-assisted breeding to develop high oil soybean cultivars with high yield and minimal effect on protein concentration. / Generous funding to conduct this research was provided by the Alternative Renewable Fuels II Program of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA) and by the Grain Farmers of Ontario.
