Abstract Changes in climate, which can be understood as fluctuations in climate patterns as a reflection of natural or anthropic interventions, can generate changes in the environment and consequently affect the diversity of organisms. Fungi are extremely important in organic matter cycling in different environments, mainly forest areas, decomposing dead wood. To better understand the effects of climate change on two wood-degrading Agaricomycetes, their potential neotropical distribution was modeled using known occurrence data, available in the GBIF database and in specific literature, and associated with predictor variables extracted from Worldclim. A modeling package in R environment was used to analyze the present and future suitability for the optimistic and pessimistic scenarios. The results indicate the climate as an important factor in the distribution of Auricularia brasiliana and Megasporoporia neosetulosa. The suitability factors for the metrics used indicate that the models can be used to analyze climatic areas and that temperature and precipitation strongly influence the permanence of species in these locations. The results also indicate areas that can be affected by climatic effects, consequently causing a decrease in the occurrence and permanence of these fungi in the Neotropics. Our models can be useful as future guidelines in conservation studies for fungi. interventions organisms environments wood wooddegrading degrading Agaricomycetes data literature Worldclim scenarios neosetulosa locations Neotropics

Objetivou-se, neste trabalho, avaliar o crescimento aéreo e radicular de cultivares e híbridos de milheto em solo submetido a quatro níveis de compactação do solo. Foram utilizados sete híbridos de milheto - Pennisetum glaucum L. (40425, 40853, 41312, 51499, 60018, 60019 e ADR7010) e as variedades ADR300 e ADR500; aos 30 dias após o plantio determinaram-se as massas da matéria seca da parte aérea e das raízes, a densidade do comprimento radicular e o diâmetro médio radicular. Na densidade de 1,74 Mg m-3 as cultivares e híbridos de milheto apresentaram uma redução elevada da massa verde da parte aérea, massa seca da parte aérea, altura de plantas e área foliar. Os híbridos 40853 e 60019 apresentaram comportamento inferior aos demais híbridos e cultivares na produção de matéria verde e seca da parte aérea e altura de plantas na densidade de 1,65 Mg m-3. As cultivares ADR500 e ADR300 e os híbridos 40425 e 51499 se destacaram na produção de massa verde e seca e altura de plantas na densidade de 1,65 kg m-3. A maior densidade de comprimento radicular média entre as cultivares de milheto foi verificada na densidade do solo de 1,46 Mg m-3. A cultura do milheto demonstrou potencial como planta descompactadora do solo.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the root and aerial growth of cultivars and hybrids of pearl millet in soil under four levels of soil compaction. Seven hybrids of pearl millet - Pennisetum glaucum L. (40425, 40853, 41312, 51499, 60018, 60019 and ADR7010) and ADR300 and ADR500 varieties were used. At 30 days after planting, the dry mass of shoots and roots, root length density and root mean diameter was determined. In the density of 1.74 Mg m-3 varieties and hybrids of pearl millet showed a high reduction of green matter, dry mass of shoots, plant height and leaf area. Hybrids 40853 and 60019 produced less than other hybrids and cultivars in the production of green and dry matter of shoots and plant height in the density of 1.65 Mg m-3. The ADR500 and ADR300 varieties and hybrids 40425 and 51499 excelled in the production of green and dry mass and plant height in the density of 1.65 kg m-3. The highest mean root length density among the cultivars of millet was found at a density of 1.46 Mg m-3. The millet crop showed potential for descompaction of soil.
