ABSTRACT Despite the importance of symbiotic nitrogen fixation (SNF) as a nitrogen source for leguminous plants, there are few reports of common bean breeding programs aiming at efficiency in SNF. This study aimed to analyze the interaction between elite lines of common bean with carioca grains and the nitrogen source (mineral fertilizer or SNF), and to select lines with wide adaptability, stability, high agronomic performance, and superiority in nodulation. Nineteen lines with carioca grains were evaluated in 12 environments in Brazil. In each environment, one experiment with mineral nitrogen fertilization and another with Rhizobium inoculation were set up, and agronomic traits were evaluated. Nodulation traits were evaluated in two years at one out of five location. Analyses of variance and of stability were performed, and Spearman’s correlations and the coincidence of selection of the best lines in both N sources were estimated. There is an effect of the N source and of genetic variability for all the traits. The lines were higher yielding under fertilization with mineral fertilizer, but they were more resistant to lodging when they were inoculated. The line by N source interaction was significant for 100-seed weight and resistance to lodging, but it did not affect selection of the best lines in the N sources. Eleven out of the 19 lines had no difference in grain yields between the two N sources. The line CNFC 15086 is recommended for growing in both N sources since it presented the highest yield and high adaptability and stability under both sources. The genotypes BRS Sublime, CNFC 15010, and CNFC 15003 had a high relative nodulation index and can be used in crosses with higher yielding lines.

A filogênese e a antropogênese da linguagem tornam-se elementos fundamentais para conhecimento anatômico e fisiológico dos mecanismos da comunicação humana, bem como suas aplicações clínicas. Durante o processo de desenvolvimento primata, importantes transformações no corpo do animal, notadamente na cabeça, ocorreram a partir da vida arborícola com implicações importantes na gênese da linguagem. A aquisição de uma postura semi-vertical do corpo, o uso exploratórios das mãos e o desenvolvimento da visão em detrimento da olfação permitiram o crescimento craniano e o aumento do encéfalo. Com o retorno do primata ao chão e o desenvolvimento da bipedia nos Australopithecus, ocorreu progressivo crescimento em leque das regiões frontais, parietais e temporais, permitindo o desenvolvimento simultâneo dos centros neuroanatômicos de linguagem, expressão facial e atividade motora manual.

The philogenesis and the anthropogenesis of language are the primary elements for the anatomic and physiologic understanding about the mechanisms of human communication, as well as their clinical applicability. During the process of primates'evolution, significant changes in the animal's body, specially on the heads, has occurred since the arboricole life that influences the genesis of language. The adaptation of a semi-vertical body posture, the exploratory use of the hands and the improvement of vision at the expenses of olfaction have caused the enlargement of the cranium and the encephalon. Furthermore, as the primates went back to the floor, and from the development of the biped march in the Australopithecus, a progressive "fan-like" increase of the frontal, parietal and temporal regions took place allowing the simultaneous development of the neuroanatomical centers of language, facial expression and manual motor activity.

A manutenção ou a elevação dos níveis de tecnologia no cultivo da soja no Cerrado é fundamental à produtividade econômica, a qual tem se revelado superior à obtida na Região Sul do Brasil. Entre as contribuições da pesquisa ao desempenho destacado da cultura da soja no Cerrado estão as novas cultivares, que representam papel fundamental para a estabilidade produtiva. A cultivar de soja BRS Celeste é uma opção para atender à demanda dos produtores. Apresenta ciclo semelhante ao da BR/EMGOPA 314 (Garça Branca), porém com produtividade superior, e com resistência às principais doenças, em especial ao cancro-da-haste (Diaporthe phaseolorum f. sp. meridionalis).

Maintenance or improvement of technology to soybean cultivation is necessary to reach economical productivity in the Brazilian Savannah, where it has shown to be superior to that obtained in the South of Brazil. New cultivars are among the contributions of research to high crop performance and yield stability. The soybean cv. BRS Celeste is an alternative to suit growers demand. It belongs to the same maturity group of cv. BR/EMGOPA 314 (Garça Branca), although it has higher yielding and shows resistance to the main diseases, especially stem canker (Diaporthe phaseolorum f. sp. meridionalis).
