Os experimentos foram conduzidos na fazenda Mape Frutas Ltda, localizada em Datas-MG, e no laborat?rio de Tecnologia de Biomassa do Cerrado, da UFVJM. Foram avaliadas oito cultivares de morangueiro: seis de dias curtos (Festival, Campinas, Toyonoka, Dover, Oso Grande e Camarosa), e duas de dias neutros (Diamante, Aromas), utilizando-se delineamentos estat?sticos espec?ficos para cada experimento. Os frutos foram colhidos duas vezes por semana no per?odo de maio a outubro de 2012. A cultivar Dover foi a que produziu maior n?mero de mudas por matriz e maior n?mero de mudas por hectare. As cultivares Aromas e Diamante apresentaram as maiores produtividades precoces de frutos. N?o foram observadas diferen?as significativas entre as cultivares para a produ??o por planta e para a produtividade total de frutos, exceto para a cultivar Toyonoka que apresentou os menores valores para essas caracter?sticas. As cultivares Camarosa, Diamante, Festival e Oso Grande apresentaram as maiores produ??es comerciais por planta e as maiores produtividades comerciais de frutos. As maiores produtividades totais foram obtidas nos meses de junho, julho e setembro. J?s as maiores produtividades comerciais foram obtidas no m?s de junho. As cultivares Camarosa, Festival e Toyonoka apresentaram as melhores caracter?sticas f?sico-qu?micas e antioxidantes. A cultivar Toyonoka apresentou a menor quantidade de aer?bicos mes?filos totais e a cultivar Oso Grande a menor quantidade de bolores e leveduras. Os frutos colhidos no m?s de outubro apresentaram maiores teores de a??cares redutores totais, vitamina C, fen?licos, antocianina, caroten?ides, s?lidos sol?veis e atividade antioxidante. A perda de massa dos frutos ? maior em condi??es de armazenamento ambiente quando comparado com o armazenamento em c?mara fria. O armazenamento em c?mara fria proporciona maior conserva??o p?s-colheita de frutos de morangueiro. Em condi??o ambiente os frutos podem ser armazenados por no m?ximo tr?s dias. J? em c?mara fria o armazenamento de frutos de morangueiro pode se prolongar por at? doze dias. A cultivar Toyonoka apesar de apresentar as melhores caracter?sticas f?sico-qu?micas, apresenta, juntamente com a cultivar Campinas, maiores incid?ncia de doen?as, maior perda de massa e menor firmeza dos frutos em rela??o as demais cultivares, havendo necessidade de ado??o de outras pr?ticas de conserva??o dos frutos. A perda de massa e a incid?ncia de doen?as afetam negativamente a apar?ncia dos frutos de morangueiro durante o armazenamento em c?mara fria, enquanto que em condi??o ambiente a incid?ncia de doen?as diminui a qualidade da apar?ncia dos frutos de morangueiro. / Disserta??o (Mestrado) ?

The experiments were conducted on the Mape Fruits Farm Ltda, located in Datas - MG, in the Laboratory of Biomass Technology of the Cerrado, in the UFVJM. We assessed eight strawberry cultivars: six short days (Festival, Campinas, Toyonoka, Dover, Oso Grande and Camarosa), and two neutral days (Diamante, Aromas), using statistical designs specific to each experiment. The fruits were harvested twice a week from May to October 2012. Cultivar Dover was the one that produced the largest number of seedlings per array and larger number of seedlings per hectare. The Aromas and Diamante showed greater yield early fruit. There were significant differences among cultivars for plant production and overall productivity of fruits, except for the cultivar Toyonoka presented the lowest values ??for these features. The cultivars Camarosa, Diamante, Oso Grande Festival and had the highest yields per plant and commercial greatest commercial yields of fruit. The highest total productivities were obtained in the months of June, July and September. The greatest commercial yields were obtained in June. The cultivars Camarosa, Festival and Toyonoka showed the best physical and chemical characteristics and antioxidants properties. Cultivar Toyonoka had the lowest amount of aerobic mesophilic and Oso Grande cultivated the least amount of mold and yeast. Fruit harvested in October showed higher levels of total reducing sugars, vitamin C, phenolics, anthocyanin, carotenoids, antioxidant activity and soluble solids. The mass loss of the fruits is increased in ambient storage conditions when compared to cold storage. The cold storage provides greater post-harvest conservation of strawberry fruits. In natural conditions the fruits can be stored for a maximum of three days. Already in cold storage of strawberry fruits can be extended for up to twelve days. Cultivar Toyonoka despite having the best physical and chemical characteristics, features coupled with the variety Campinas, higher incidence of disease, greater weight loss and lower fruit firmness compared with other cultivars, requiring adoption of other conservation practices fruits. The weight loss and the incidence of diseases negatively affect the appearance of the fruit of strawberry during storage in a cold chamber at ambient condition while the incidence of disease decreases the quality of the appearance of the fruit of strawberry.

Colheram-se frutos oriundos de 15 matrizes em Curvelo e 15 em S?o Gon?alo do Rio Preto, Minas Gerais. A amostragem foi feita de maneira a se ter, em cada popula??o, matrizes com diferentes di?metros de tronco, sendo este ?ltimo uma estimativa da idade da planta. Para todas as vari?veis foram tomados dez frutos por matriz e as vari?veis qu?micas e f?sico-qu?micas foram avaliadas em cinco matrizes de cada popula??o. Avaliaram-se, em cada fruto, as vari?veis f?sicas: peso total; peso do mesocarpo externo; peso total dos put?mens; peso m?dio dos put?mens; n? de put?mens; peso total de polpa; e peso m?dio de polpa. As vari?veis qu?micas e f?sico-qu?micas, avaliadas na polpa, foram: umidade; cinzas; lip?deos; prote?nas; carboidratos totais; pH; s?lidos sol?veis totais; e acidez total titul?vel. O efeito de matrizes foi altamente significativo para todas as vari?veis avaliadas (P<1%), enquanto o de popula??es foi apenas para duas vari?veis (5%<P<10%). As estimativas das correla??es entre as vari?veis f?sicas avaliadas foram todas positivas, algumas significativas, enquanto que para as vari?veis qu?micas e f?sico-qu?micas observaram-se estimativas positivas e negativas, a maioria n?o significativa. As estimativas das correla??es entre o di?metro do tronco e as vari?veis f?sicas foram todas positivas, significativas apenas para duas vari?veis (P<5%). Para as vari?veis qu?micas e f?sico-qu?micas, observaram-se correla??es positivas e negativas, por?m n?o significativas. A sele??o de matrizes no campo para as caracter?sticas avaliadas que apresentaram correla??es n?o significativas ou significativas positivas deve promover ganhos gen?ticos nos descendentes se estes forem obtidos por propaga??o vegetativa, o mesmo n?o se podendo afirmar para descendentes obtidos por via sexuada.

The sampling was done in a way to sample trees among a range of trunk diameters, the last trait being an estimate of the tree age. Physical traits, evaluated on each of ten fruits sampled from all harvested trees, were: fruit total weight; external mesocarp weight; total weight of put?mens; mean weight of put?mens; number of put?mens; total weight of pulp; and mean weight of pulp. Chemical and physic-chemical traits, evaluated in five trees from each population, were: humidity; ashs; lipids; proteins; total carbohydrate; pH; total soluble solids; and total acidity. The mother trees effects were significant for all traits (P<1%), while the populations were only for two traits (5%<P<10%). Estimates of correlations among physical traits were all positive and some of them significant. For chemical and physic-chemical traits there were positive and negative correlations, most not significant. Estimates of correlations between trunk diameter and each physical variable were all positive, being significant for two traits (P<5%). Positive and negative but not significant correlations were observed for chemical and physic-chemical traits. Mother tree selection for traits that showed non significant or significant and positive correlations with trunk diameter may promote genetic gain in their descendents for vegetative propagation but the same assertion can?t be said when propagation is carried out by seeds. Mother tree age is not expected to cause any effect in genetic gains for these traits.

Cipocereus minensis is an endemic Cactaceae from the rocky fields in the Minas Gerais? portion of the Espinha?o chain. In this research it was intended to evaluate the rhythms of flower and fruit production of the species, its floral and reproductive biology, and also know the floral visitors and the likely seed dispersers, in an area of the rocky fields of the Diamantina ? MG?s plateau. Seed germination tests have been performed and the initial plant growth on different substrates was analyzed. The species had floral traits such as nocturnal anthesis, white flowers, abundant volume of nectar and rigid perianth structures that suggested pollination by bats. However daily visitors as hummingbirds were also observed. The reproductive system of C. minensis is alogamic and self incompatible and the night visitors were more efficient than the daytime ones in the formation of fruits. The phenologic pattern of flowering and fruiting is sub-annual, with peak of flowering at the beginning and middle of the dry season, in april and july, respectively. Another peak was observed in the wet season in november, with lower production of flowers, but with a higher flower/fruit conversion rate . C. minensis is well adapted to the climatic seasonality. The fruits showed significant differences with respect to collection time for the length, diameter and weight, with higher measures in the wet season. The average number of seeds per fruit was 958.63 ? 369.35, the weight of 1000 seeds was 0.53 g and the mean length of the seeds was 1.5 mm. The highest germination rates were found after nine and twelve months of storage (75% and 72%, respectively) or in fruits collected with a more advanced stage of ripening (72%).In the initial growth the plants showed a higher diameter and height on the substrate prepared in the ratio 1:1:1, composed of sand, red soil and cow dung. The store promotes germination, but also in fruits collected in a more advanced stage of maturation. Substrates with better drainage and aeration favoring better initial development of this plant species. This information will provide subsidies for the development of strategies of conservation and management of the species.

The benefits of using high quality seeds for pasture formation can be easily found by the rapid establishment of forage, pasture formed uniformly and cover the ground more quickly, resulting in a pasture utilization in shorter time. However, the methodologies used to evaluate the quality of their seeds are still poorly defined. The use of vigor testing is an essential implement for the evaluation of the physiological potential of seed lots. The objective of this research was adjust the accelerated aging tests and electrical conductivity, to evaluate the physiological potential of seed lots from Brachiaria brizantha Marandu and Xara?s cultivars, each represented by four lots. For the accelerated aging test, seeds were submitted to traditional accelerated aging and with saturated NaCl solution, five periods of aging, 0, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours. For the electrical conductivity test, seeds were submitted to 12 periods of imbibitions in water for 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22 and 24 hours, using samples of 25 seeds in 25 mL and 50 mL, 50 seeds in 50 mL and 75 mL of water. To characterize the profile of lots, were determined moisture content, germination tests, first count of germination, speed of germination, initial stand, emergence, and? speed of emergence index. The accelerated aging test makes possible the separation of lots of B. brinzatha cv Marandu and cv Xara?s by the method with saturated NaCl solution for 72 hours and 24 hours, respectively. For the electrical conductivity test, the imbebition period during 14 hours using 50 seeds in 50 mL to Marandu and using 25 seeds in 25 mL or 50 seeds in 50 mL of water for cultivar Xara?s is appropriate for evaluating the seed physiological potential.

A pesquisa foi realizada com o objetivo de avaliar a capacidade competitiva de mudas de oliveira cultivadas com diferentes esp?cies e densidades de plantas daninhas sobre o crescimento vegetativo e os teores de nutrientes. Para avaliar a capacidade de competi??o da oliveira com as plantas daninhas foram conduzidos tr?s experimentos em casa de vegeta??o do Setor de Fruticultura da Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri (UFVJM), Diamantina, MG. No primeiro experimento avaliou-se o crescimento inicial de mudas de duas cultivares de oliveira ?Arbequina? e ?Koroneiki? convivendo com cinco esp?cies de plantas: Bidens pilosa, Brachiaria brizantha, Cenchrus echinatus,Canavalia ensiformis e Lupinus albus, e um tratamento sem conviv?ncia com plantas daninhas por um per?odo de 60 dias. Observou-se que a cultivar Arbequina mostrou-se mais tolerante a interfer?ncia das esp?cies de plantas. B. pilosa, C. ensiformes e L. albus foram as esp?cies com maior potencial de interfer?ncia no crescimento inicial das mudas de oliveira. No segundo, avaliou-se o crescimento de duas cultivares de oliveira, ?Arbequina? e ?Ascolano? cultivadas com quatro esp?cies de plantas competidoras, Amaranthus retroflexus, B. brizantha, B. pilosa, e C. echinatus e as testemunhas, que foram as mudas de oliveiras e as plantas daninhas de cada esp?cie sem competi??o por um per?odo de 90 dias. A competi??o com as plantas daninhas interferiu no crescimento e nos teores de nutrientes de mudas de oliveira. A ?Ascolano? mostrou-se mais tolerante a competi??o com as esp?cies de plantas daninhas. A. retroflexus e B. pilosa foramas esp?cies com maior potencial de competi??o com mudas de oliveira. No terceiro experimento, foi avaliada a conviv?ncia das mudas de oliveira ?Arbequina? e ?Ascolano? com cinco densidades de B.brizantha, zero, uma, duas, tr?s e quatro plantas por vaso por um per?odo de 70 dias. Observou-se que a B. brizantha interferiu negativamente no crescimento vegetativo da oliveira. A cultivar ?Ascolano? apresentou maior capacidade competitiva com todas as densidades de B. brizantha.

The research was conducted with the aim of evaluate the competitive ability of olive nursery trees grown with different species and weed densities on vegetative growth and nutrients contents. Three experiments was conducted in a greenhouse of Setor de Fruticultura of Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri (UFVJM), Diamantina, MG to evaluate the competition ability of olive tree with the weeds. The first experiment evaluated the nursery tree growth of two olive cultivars ?Arbequina? and ?Koroneiki? coexisting with five plant species: Bidens pilosa, Brachiaria brizantha, Cenchrus echinatus, Canavalia ensiformis and Lupinus albus and one treatment without coexistence for a period of 60 days. It was observed that the ?Arbequina? cultivar was more tolerant to interference of plant species. B. pilosa, C. ensiformes and L. albus were the species with greater potential for interference on the growth of olive nursery trees. In the second it was evaluated the growth of two olive cultivars, ?Arbequina? and ?Ascolano? planted with four species of competing plants, B. brizantha, A. retroflexus, B. pilosa and C. echinatus and the controls, which were the olive nursery trees and the weeds of each species without competition for a period of 90 days. Competition with weeds affected the growth and nutrients contents of olive nursery trees. ?Ascolano? was more tolerant to the competition with weed species. The species A. retroflexus and B. pilosa were the species with the greatest potential competition with olive nursery tree. In the third experiment was evaluated the relationship between the olive nursery trees ?Arbequina? and ?Ascolano? with four densities of B. brizantha zero, one, two, three and four plants per pot for a period of 70 days. It was observed that B. brizantha affected negatively in vegetative growth of olive nursery trees. The cultivar ?Ascolano? showed greater competitive ability with all densities of B. brizantha. The increased density of B. brizantha affected the nutritional status of olive nursery trees.

Cipocereus minensis is an endemic Cactaceae from the rocky fields in the Minas Gerais? portion of the Espinha?o chain. In this research it was intended to evaluate the rhythms of flower and fruit production of the species, its floral and reproductive biology, and also know the floral visitors and the likely seed dispersers, in an area of the rocky fields of the Diamantina ? MG?s plateau. Seed germination tests have been performed and the initial plant growth on different substrates was analyzed. The species had floral traits such as nocturnal anthesis, white flowers, abundant volume of nectar and rigid perianth structures that suggested pollination by bats. However daily visitors as hummingbirds were also observed. The reproductive system of C. minensis is alogamic and self incompatible and the night visitors were more efficient than the daytime ones in the formation of fruits. The phenologic pattern of flowering and fruiting is sub-annual, with peak of flowering at the beginning and middle of the dry season, in april and july, respectively. Another peak was observed in the wet season in november, with lower production of flowers, but with a higher flower/fruit conversion rate . C. minensis is well adapted to the climatic seasonality. The fruits showed significant differences with respect to collection time for the length, diameter and weight, with higher measures in the wet season. The average number of seeds per fruit was 958.63 ? 369.35, the weight of 1000 seeds was 0.53 g and the mean length of the seeds was 1.5 mm. The highest germination rates were found after nine and twelve months of storage (75% and 72%, respectively) or in fruits collected with a more advanced stage of ripening (72%).In the initial growth the plants showed a higher diameter and height on the substrate prepared in the ratio 1:1:1, composed of sand, red soil and cow dung. The store promotes germination, but also in fruits collected in a more advanced stage of maturation. Substrates with better drainage and aeration favoring better initial development of this plant species. This information will provide subsidies for the development of strategies of conservation and management of the species.

O uso de herbicidas ? comum no controle das plantas daninhas, e pode causar impacto negativo ao meio ambiente. O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar a seletividade de herbicidas, aplicados nas culturas do milho e do eucalipto, sobre os insetos de controle biol?gico de pragas Podisus nigrispinus Dallas, 1851 (Heteroptera Pentatomidae) e Palmistichus elaeisis Delvare & LaSalle, 1993 (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae). Foram realizados tr?s experimentos em laborat?rio. No primeiro, avaliou-se a seletividade dos herbicidas atrazine e nicosulfuron e a mistura destes, e mais o controle (?gua), aplicados em posturas e em diferentes est?dios biol?gicos de P. nigrispinus. A viabilidade dos ovos de P. nigrispinus diminuiu sob a??o dos herbicidas, sem diferirem quanto ao tempo de eclos?o. A sobreviv?ncia de ninfas foi baixa sob a??o dos herbicidas, sendo mais afetada negativamente com a mistura de herbicidas. Para a aplica??o em cada est?dio, observou-se baixa sobreviv?ncia de ninfas do primeiro ao terceiro est?dios com o herbicida atrazine isolado, ou em mistura, e at? o segundo est?dio para o nicosulfuron. Observou-se em todos os demais est?dios do inseto a menor seletividade ? mistura dos herbicidas comparados ao efeito isolado. O segundo experimento avaliou-se a seletividade de herbicidas registrados para a cultura do milho para o inimigo natural P. elaeisis. Os tratamentos foram pupas do hospedeiro alternativo Tenebrio molitor Linnaeus, 1758 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) pulverizadas com os herbicidas atrazine, nicosulfuron, paraquat e tembotrione, na dose comercial, mais o tratamento controle com ?gua. Pupas de T. molitor foram submergidas em solu??o herbicida e logo ap?s, expostas ao parasitismo por seis f?meas de P. elaeisis. Os herbicidas atrazine e paraquat n?o foram seletivos a P. elaeisis, apresentando elevada toxicidade. J? o herbicida nicosulfuron reduziu a raz?o sexual de P. elaeisis, o que pode comprometer as gera??es subsequentes. O herbicida tembotrione foi seletivo a P. elaeisis apresentando menor risco quando indicado em programas de manejo integrado de insetos. No terceiro experimento avaliou-se a seletividade de herbicidas usados na cultura do eucalipto no parasitoide P. elaeisis. Os tratamentos constaram das doses comerciais dos herbicidas sulfentrazone, oxyfluorfen, glyphosate, glufosinato sal de am?nio e isoxaflutole, al?m do controle, apenas com ?gua. Os herbicidas foram aspergidos em pupas do hospedeiro alternativo T. molitor, as quais foram expostas ao parasitismo por seis f?meas de P. elaeisis. Os herbicidas glufosinato sal de am?nio e oxyfluorfen n?o foram seletivos ?s f?meas de P. elaeisis, e reduziram o parasitismo e a emerg?ncia desse parasitoide. O n?mero de indiv?duos e f?meas produzidas por f?mea foram maiores com isoxaflutole, portanto apresentando menor risco quando utilizado em programas de manejo integrado de pragas na cultura do eucalipto. / Disserta??o (Mestrado) ?

Herbicide use is common in weed control, and can negatively impact the environment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the toxicity of herbicides applied on corn [Zea mays L. (Poaceae)] and eucalyptus [Eucalyptus sp. (Myrtaceae)] on the Podisus nigrispinus Dallas, 1851 (Heteroptera Pentatomidae) and Palmistichus elaeisis Delvare & LaSalle, 1993 (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae). Three experiments were conducted in the laboratory. At first, we evaluated the selectivity of the herbicides atrazine and nicosulfuron and mixture, in commercial dosage, applied in different postures and biological stages of P. nigrispinus. The viability of eggs of P. nigrispinus decreased under the action of herbicides, without differences regarding the time of hatching. The survival of nymphs was low in the herbicides being more adversely affected with the herbicide mixture. For the application at each stage there was low survival of nymphs of the first to third stage with the herbicide atrazine, alone or in mixture until the second stage to nicosulfuron. It was observed in all other stages of the insect to lower selectivity compared to the herbicide mixture to the isolated effect. The second chapter assessed the selectivity of herbicides registered for corn for the natural enemy of P. elaeisis. The treatments were pupae of the alternative host Tenebrio molitor Linnaeus, 1758 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) sprayed with the herbicide atrazine, nicosulfuron, paraquat and tembotrione in commercial dosage over the control treatment with water. Pupae of T. molitor were overwhelmed with the solution herbicidica and soon after exposed to parasitism by six females of P. elaeisis. The herbicides atrazine and paraquat were not selective to P. elaeisis, with high toxicity. The herbicide nicosulfuron reduced the sex ratio of P. elaeisis, which may affect subsequent generations. The herbicide tembotrione was selective to P. elaeisis and can be displayed in integrated pest management of insects. In the third chapter we evaluated the selectivity of herbicides used in the cultivation of eucalyptus, to the parasitoid, P. elaeisis. The treatments consisted of doses of commercial herbicides sulfentrazone, oxyfluorfen, glyphosate, glufosinate ammonium salt and isoxaflutole, beyond control, with water only. The herbicides were sprayed in pupae of the alternative host T. molitor, which were exposed to six female parasitism by P. elaeisis. The herbicide glufosinate ammonium salt and oxyfluorfen were not selective in females of P. elaeisis, and reduced parasitism and emergence of this parasitoid. The number of individuals and females produced per female were higher with glyphosate and isoxaflutole and can be used in programs of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in the culture of eucalyptus.

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar o desempenho de cultivares de cenoura no cultivo de outono-inverno em dois munic?pios com caracter?sticas edafo-clim?ticas distintas do Alto Vale do Jequitinhonha, MG. Os experimentos foram conduzidos na Fazenda Rio Manso, munic?pio de Couto de Magalh?es de Minas, MG e no Campus JK, munic?pio de Diamantina, MG. Foram avaliadas seis cultivares de cenoura (Bras?lia, Nantes, Kuronan, Esplanada, Planalto e Tornado) num delineamento experimental em blocos ao acaso com tr?s repeti??es. Para a evolu??o do crescimento, a partir do dia do desbaste (35 dias ap?s semeadura), at? o dia da colheita (100 dias ap?s semeadura), foram avaliadas semanalmente as seguintes caracter?sticas: altura da parte a?rea, comprimento de raiz, massa seca de raiz, massa seca total, ?ndice de colheita e produtividade total. Estas mesmas caracter?sticas, acrescidas da produ??o comercial, foram consideradas para representarem a produ??o final. As cultivares que se destacaram foram Planalto, Tornado e Kuronan em Couto de Magalh?es de Minas e Planalto em Diamantina. O desempenho agron?mico das cultivares foi superior em Couto de Magalh?es de Minas para a maioria das vari?veis avaliadas, resultando em uma maior produtividade total e comercial de ra?zes. As condi??es edafo-clim?ticas de Diamantina provocam indu??o de florescimento na maioria das cultivares, causando perdas de produtividade comercial no cultivo de outono-inverno. / Disserta??o (Mestrado) ?

This work aimed to evaluate the performance of autumn-winter carrot cultivars growing in two diverse regions on Jequitinhonha Valley: Fazenda Rio Manso ? UFVJM, in Couto de Magalh?es de Minas and Campus II ? UFVJM, in Diamantina. Six cultivars (Bras?lia, Nantes, Kuronan, Esplanada, Planalto e Tornado) were evaluated in a randomized block design with three replications. The evaluations were carried out weekly from 35th up to 100th day after sowing, on the traits: plant height; root length; weight of dry roots; total dry weight; harvest index; and total yielding. These traits, plus the commercial weight, were evaluated after harvest (at the 100th day). The cultivars Planalto, Tornado and Kuronan had the best performance In Couto de Magalh?es while in Diamantina only Planalto exceeded. Couto de Magalh?es showed better performance than Diamantina for any cultivar in almost all evaluated traits. Early flowering on most of the cultivars in Diamantina resulted in a significant loss of commercial weight, supposedly as a consequence of its low temperature.

Pesquisa do estado de Minas Gerais (FAPEMIG) / A cultura do crambe (Crambe abyssinica Hochst) tem se destacado no cen?rio nacional pelo seu potencial para produ??o de biodiesel devido ? facilidade de cultivo, qualidade do ?leo e possibilidades de uso dos subprodutos da extra??o do ?leo. Para o estabelecimento da cultura no pa?s ? necess?rio que sejam usadas sementes de qualidade. No entanto, as informa??es sobre metodologias para avalia??o da qualidade de sementes dessa cultura s?o escassas. Dessa forma, objetivou-se adequar as metodologias dos testes de envelhecimento acelerado e condutividade el?trica para avalia??o do vigor de sementes de crambe e investigar a atividade enzim?tica em rela??o ?s diferen?as de vigor. Foram utilizados cinco lotes de sementes da cultivar FMS Brilhante das safras 2008, 2009, 2010 e 2011. Foram realizadas a caracteriza??o morfol?gica de sementes e pl?ntulas e a composi??o centesimal da semente de crambe. Para caracteriza??o do perfil dos lotes realizou-se a determina??o do grau de umidade e os testes de primeira contagem de germina??o, germina??o, ?ndice de velocidade de germina??o, emerg?ncia, estande inicial, ?ndice de velocidade de emerg?ncia e sanidade. Foi tamb?m realizada a an?lise eletrofor?tica das isoenzimas super?xido dismutase, esterase, catalase, ?lcool desidrogenase e malato desidrogenase. Para o teste de envelhecimento acelerado, as sementes foram submetidas ao m?todo tradicional e com solu??o saturada de NaCl, pelos per?odos de envelhecimento de 0; 24; 48; 72 e 96 horas. No teste de condutividade el?trica, as sementes foram submetidas aos per?odos de 2; 4; 6; 8; 10; 12; 14; 16 e 18 horas de embebi??o utilizando-se 25 sementes em 25 mL e 50 mL e 50 sementes em 50 mL e 75 mL. Concluiu-se que ? poss?vel avaliar o vigor de sementes de crambe pelo m?todo tradicional do teste de envelhecimento acelerado a 42 ?C por 96 horas. O teste de condutividade el?trica n?o foi adequado para avalia??o da qualidade fisiol?gica de crambe. Quando associado ? atividade das isoenzimas observou-se que o lote de maior vigor teve maior atividade dos grupos enzim?ticos super?xido dismutase, catalase e esterase. O lote de menor vigor n?o teve atividade das enzimas isocitrato liase e ?lcool desidrogenase. N?o houve altera??o na atividade da isoenzima malato desidrogenase. / Disserta??o (Mestrado) ?

In order to establish the culture in the Country, the use of quality seeds is necessary. However, the information on methodologies for seed quality evaluation for this culture is scarce. Thus, we aimed at adapting the methodologies to the accelerated aging and electric conductivity tests to evaluate the vigor of crambe seeds and investigate the enzymatic activity in relation to the vigor differences. Five seed lots of cultivar FMS Brilhante of the 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 harvests were used. We performed the morphologic characterization of seeds and seedlings and the centesimal composition of crambe seeds. For the profile characterization of the lots, we performed the determination of the humidity degree and the tests for first germination count, germination, germination speed index, emergence, initial stand, emergence speed index and sanity. We also performed the electrophoretic analysis of the superoxide dismutase, esterase, catalase, alcohol dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase isoenzymes. For the accelerated aging test, the seeds were submitted to the traditional method and with NaCl saturated solution, for the aging periods of 0; 24; 48; 72 and 96 hours. In the electrical conductivity test, the seeds were submitted to the periods of 2; 4; 6; 8; 10; 12; 14; 16 and 18 hours of soaking using 25 seeds in 25 mL and 50 mL, and 50 seeds in 50 mL and 75 mL. We concluded that it is possible to evaluate crambe seed vigor by the traditional method of the accelerated aging test at 42 oC for 96 hours. The electric conductivity test was not adequate for evaluating crambe physiological quality. When associated with isoenzymes activity, we observed that the lot with highest vigor presented the highest activity of the superoxide dismutase, catalase and esterase isoenzymes groups. The lot of lowest vigor did not present activity of the isocitrate liase and alcohol dehydrogenase enzymes. There was no interaction of the activity of the malate dehydrogenase isoenzymes.

(jatob?) quanto: (a) ? capacidade competitiva com plantas consortes e esp?cies daninhas referentes a aloca??o de mat?ria seca, ?rea foliar e concentra??o de macronutrientes; (b) ? seletividade aos herbicidas sulfentrazone e glyphosate e; (c) aos efeitos de diferentes doses de sulfentrazone sobre a atividade microbiana de substratos cultivados com as mudas. Os experimentos foram conduzidos em casa-de-vegeta??o, viveiro de produ??o de mudas e em laborat?rio na Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri (UFVJM), Diamantina-MG. No ano de 2009, foram conduzidos dois experimentos sendo os tratamentos compostos pela combina??o de mudas de jatob?, se desenvolvendo isoladamente ou em competi??o com cada uma das seguintes esp?cies Brachiaria humidicola, Brachiaria brizantha, Brachiaria decumbens, Panicum maximum, Cajanus cajan, Canavalia ensiformis e Mucuna aterrima (experimento 1) e Cenchrus echinatus L., Bidens pilosa L., Euphorbia heterophylla L., Solanum americanum Mill e Lolium multiflorum Lam. (experimento 2), mais o cultivo isolado de cada planta daninha e consorte, por 60 dias. Al?m do efeito das plantas nas caracter?sticas de altura e mat?ria seca das plantas de jatob?, avaliou-se o ac?mulo de nitrog?nio, f?sforo e pot?ssio em todas as plantas. Em 2010, tamb?m foram conduzidos dois experimentos sendo os tratamentos compostos por dois herbicidas (glyphosate e sulfentrazone) e cinco doses desses herbicidas (0,00; 0,09; 0,18; 0,35 e 0,70 L ha-1) (experimento 1); cinco doses de sulfentrazone (0,00; 0,04; 0,15; 0,30 e 0,60 L ha-1) e dois tipos de substratos (rizosf?rico e n?o rizosf?rico cultivados com mudas de jatob?) (experimento 2), sendo avaliado o potencial de intoxica??o desses produtos sobre a esp?cie vegetal e a comunidade microbiana rizosf?rica. Observou-se que a competi??o entre as plantas n?o promoveu altera??es na produ??o de mat?ria seca ou ?rea foliar do jatob?. Sobre a conviv?ncia das plantas daninhas com o jatob?, constatou-se efeito positivo no ac?mulo de nutrientes por estas. Os herbicidas estudados apresentaram-se com elevado potencial para uso no controle de plantas daninhas em ?reas de plantios de jatob? em fase inicial de desenvolvimento. Quanto aos indicadores microbiol?gicos, verifica-se que a evolu??o do C-CO2 e o carbono da biomassa microbiana foram sens?veis ? presen?a dos herbicidas podendo constituir ferramentas auxiliares no monitoramento do impacto desses produtos no ambiente. / Disserta??o (Mestrado) ?

The experiments were conducted in greenhouse, nursery and laboratory of UFVJM. In 2009, two experiments were carried out, being the treatments a combination of jatoba seedling that had developed alone and/or in competition with one of the following species: Brachiaria humidicola, Brachiaria brizantha, Brachiaria decumbens, Panicum maximum, Cajanus cajan, Canavalia ensiformis and Mucuna aterrima (experiment 1) and Cenchrus echinatus L., Bidens pilosa L., Euphorbia heterophylla L., Solanum americanum Mill and Lolium multiflorum Lam. (experiment 2), plus the isolated cultivation of every weed and plant that was intercropped for 60 days. Besides the effects of the weed plants on height and dry matter of jatoba plants, it was assessed the accumulation of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in all of plants. In 2010, it is also made two experiments and the treatment was made with two herbicides (glyphosate and sulfentrazone) and five doses of these herbicides (0,00; 0,09; 0,18; 0,35 e 0,70 L ha-1) (experiment 1); five doses of sulfentrazone (0,00; 0,04; 0,15; 0,30 e 0,60 L ha-1) and two types of substrates (rhizospheric and non-rhizospheric cultivated with jatoba seeding) (experiment 2). It was assessed the poisoning potential of these products on vegetal species and the rhizospheric microbial community. It was observed that the competition between the plants did not trigger changes on production of dry matter or leaf area of jatoba. It was verified a positive effect of nutrients accumulation by weed that lived together with jatoba. These herbicides have showed high potential for use on weed control in areas of jatoba planting in initial phase of development. Regarding to microbiological indicators, it was verified that the C-CO2 and microbial biomass carbon evolution was sensitive to the presence of herbicides that be constitute auxiliary tools on monitoring of the impact of these products.
