Foram analisados vários parâmetros como germinação, altura da plântula até o cotilédone, altura total da plântula, peso fresco e seco da plântula, altura da planta, diâmetro do caule da planta, peso fresco e seco e área da 5º folha, número de frutos verdes com diâmetro maior que 3 cm, número de frutos esverdeados, de vez e maduros, número total de frutos, Brix e pH dos frutos, peso médio dos frutos e produção total de frutos. Diferentes efeitos estimulantes foram observados nos diversos estádios de desenvolvimento das plantas. O maior estímulo, para produção ocorreu para a dose de 10 Gy. As maiores alturas médias da plântula e da planta ocorreram para a dose de 7,5 Gy. O maior número de frutos verdes com 3 cm de diâmetro ocorreu para o tratamento de 12,5 e 15 Gy. A irradiação também estimulou a produção de maior número total de frutos, em todas as doses aplicadas, com vantagem para a dose de 10 Gy que produziu 88% mais frutos que a testemunha e também uma produção em peso 86% maior. O pH dos frutos acidificou significativamente a partir da dose de 12,5 Gy. Houve aumento na produção em todos os tratamentos em relação à testemunha sendo que o maior estímulo para produção ocorreu para as doses de 10, 12,5 e 15 Gy. O uso de baixas doses de radiação gama do Co- 60 aplicado no tratamento pré-semeadura, nas sementes, mostrou-se eficiente em estimular o desenvolvimento das plantas e aumentar a produção do tomate. / Tese (Doutoramento) / IPEN/T / Instituto de Pesquisas Energeticas e Nucleares - IPEN-CNEN/SP

Lake and round whitefish are cold-adapted freshwater species with similar life histories and spawning behaviours. There have been several studies on the embryonic development of both species (particularly for lake whitefish), most utilizing constant temperatures. However, temperatures fluctuate in the field due to natural (e.g. seasonal changes) and anthropogenic (e.g. water discharged from once-through cooling processes) effects. Releases from once-through cooling processes may contain low levels of chemicals (e.g. morpholine) and radiation (e.g. tritium). This thesis examined and compared the impacts of thermal, morpholine, and radiation stressors on lake and round whitefish embryogenesis. To examine the effects of fluctuating incubation temperatures, lake and round whitefish were reared at constant temperatures, with seasonal temperature declines/inclines, transient temperature spikes, or seasonal temperature changes combined with temperature spikes. Round whitefish embryos had significantly higher mortality when reared at 8°C compared to lake whitefish, and seasonal temperature changes impacted development rate, growth, and hatch dynamics for both species. Temperature spikes had relatively little effect on development. The effects on embryonic development of chronic morpholine and low-dose radiation exposures were examined in round whitefish to compare with existing data in lake whitefish. Round whitefish embryos were more impacted by morpholine than lake whitefish (larger effects on growth and mortality at relatively lower concentrations) and v less impacted by low-dose radiation (little effect on growth or hatch dynamics). Post hatch, round whitefish embryos reared at 8°C, with rapid seasonal inclines, or with 500 mg L-1 morpholine had elevated mortality. All irradiated embryos had decreased mortality post-hatch compared to non-irradiated embryos. Thus, embryonic exposure to all stressors examined appears to alter post-hatch survival. This thesis better defines the effects of fluctuating incubation temperatures, chronic morpholine, and chronic radiation exposures on the embryonic development of lake and round whitefish. It also suggests that embryonic incubation conditions are important beyond hatching. / Thesis / Master of Science (MSc) / Lake and round whitefish are cold-adapted freshwater species. Both species play important ecological roles, with lake whitefish generally perceived as more economically and culturally important. Many studies have detailed lake whitefish embryonic development under constant stressors (e.g. temperature) but there are relatively few studies on round whitefish embryonic development. Both species experience seasonal temperature fluctuations in nature and may experience additional anthropogenic temperature, chemical, and radiation stress due to discharge from once-through cooling processes at thermal power plants, which may contain low levels of morpholine and radiation. Our study suggests that round whitefish embryos are more sensitive to elevated temperature and morpholine levels, but less impacted by chronic low-dose irradiation relative to lake whitefish embryos. The growth and development of both species are significantly affected by seasonal temperature changes.
