Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / In the period May 2008 to March 2009 experiment was conducted in an area of the Federal University of Santa Maria, in order to evaluate the characteristics and structural traits of eight native grasses (Andropogon lateralis, Aristida laevis, Axonopus affinis, Erianthus angustifolius, Paspalum notatum, Paspalum plicatulum, Piptochaetium montevidense and Sorghastrum pellitum) under nitrogen levels (zero and 100 kg /ha of nitrogen). The experimental design was of blocks randomized with three replications in factorial arrangement of 8 x 2 (native grasses x nitrogen). Accumulated thermal time of 350 and 700 degree days determined the interval between cuts to the species of prostrate growth habit and caespitose, respectively. The highest rates of elongation were observed in Aristida laevis, Erianthus angustifolius, Paspalum plicatulum and Sorghastrum pellitum when received nitrogen. For leaf appearance rate, phyllochron, leaf senescence rate, duration of elongation, the lifespan of the leaves, number of green leaves and leaf length difference was found between species. / No período de maio de 2008 a março de 2009 foi desenvolvido experimento em área da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, com o objetivo de avaliar as características morfogênicas e estruturais de oito gramíneas nativas (Andropogon lateralis, Aristida laevis, Axonopus affinis, Erianthus angustifolius, Paspalum notatum, Paspalum plicatulum, Piptochaetium montevidense e Sorghastrum pellitum) sob níveis de adubação nitrogenada (zero e 100 kg/ha de nitrogênio). O delineamento experimental foi o de blocos inteiramente casualizados com três repetições e em arranjo fatorial 8 x 2 (gramíneas nativas x doses de nitrogênio). A soma térmica acumulada de 350 e 700 graus-dia determinou o intervalo entre cortes para as espécies de hábito de crescimento prostrado e cespitoso, respectivamente. As maiores taxas de elongação foliar foram observadas em Aristida laevis, Erianthus angustifolius, Paspalum plicatulum e Sorghastrum pellitum quando receberam adubação nitrogenada. Para taxa de aparecimento foliar, filocrono, taxa de senescência foliar, duração da elongação foliar, duração de vida das folhas, número de folhas verdes e comprimento de lâminas foliares houve diferença entre as espécies avaliadas.

A mancha de micosferela é uma das principais doenças e o Eucalyptus globulus uma das espécies mais suscetíveis. O presente estudo foi iniciado a partir de isolamentos monospóricos de espécies fúngicas associadas à mancha de micosferela a partir de folhas e ramos de E. globulus provenientes de Bagé-RS, Pedras Altas-RS, Botucatu-SP, Jacareí-SP e Itapeva-SP, que possibilitou a obtenção de 46 isolados, que foram observados quanto à forma de germinação e crescimento micelial. A determinação das espécies deu-se por meio de PCR com primers da região genômica ITS1 e ITS4 e sequenciamento (vide capítulo 1). Como resultado, várias espécies foram encontradas e descritas. Mudas de E. globulus foram inoculadas pelo método da exposição de mudas sadias à folhas com sintomas de Teratosphaeria nubilosa, por ejeção de ascósporos, em casa de vegetação. Estas mudas foram avaliadas e folhas com os sintomas do fungo foram coletadas a partir da terceira semana até a décima terceira semana da inoculação. Para realização de cortes e estudos histológicos, que permitiram observar a formação dos pseudotécios desde o seu início três semanas após a inoculação, as hifas ascógenas dentro do pseudotécio após nove semanas e a formação das ascas e ascósporos após 11 e 13 semanas, respectivamente (vide capítulo 2). Através de estudos anatômicos, verificou-se que as folhas adultas apresentaram menor intensidade dos sintomas, o que pode estar relacionado com a compactação das células do parênquima, enquanto que as folhas jovens apresentam espaços intercelulares no parênquima lacunoso, no parênquima paliçádico e na câmara subestomática... / Many Eucalyptus species are grown worldwide, and many pathogens have evolved and adapted to the culture. The cultivation of eucalyptus is affected by a number of diseases. Many pathogens occur in several eucalypt species, especially fungi, from the nursery to the planting adults. The Mycosphaerella leaf disease is a major disease and Eucalyptus globulus one of the most susceptible species. This study consisted of spore isolates of fungal species associated with Mycosphaerella leaf disease from leaves and stems of E. globulus from Bage-RS, Pedras Altas-RS, Botucatu-SP, Jacareí-SP, Itapeva-SP, which allowed the collection of 46 isolatesm sequenced (see Chapter 1). As a result, several species were found and described. Seedlings of E.globulus were inoculated by exposure to leaves of healthy seedlings with symptoms of Teratosphaeria nubilosa, for ejection of ascospores in the greenhouse. Seedlings were evaluated, and leaves with the symptoms of the fungus were collected from the third week up to thirteenth week of inoculation. To carry out studies and histological sections, which allowed the formation of the pseudothecia from its beginning three weeks after inoculation, the formation of the ascogenous hyphae within pseudothecia after nine weeks, and the formation of asci and ascospores after 11 and 13 weeks, respectively (see Chapter 2). Through anatomical studies, it was found that if the adult leaves had a lower intensity of symptoms, which may be related to compression of the parenchyma cells, while the young leaves have intercellular spaces in the spongy parenchyma, palisade parenchyma and in substomatal chambers facilitating the formation of stroma (see Chapter 3). Essential oils of leaves and young adults, healthy and stain micosferela were extracted by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The data of chemical composition and the respective percentages... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)
