RESUMO: O uso de métodos não destrutivos e de baixo custo para determinação de área foliar tem ganhado importantes aplicações. Os objetivos da pesquisa foram (i) propor um método não destrutivo para estimar a área foliar da cultura da mamona e (ii) construir equações que estimem com precisão e rapidez a área foliar da espécie. Foram coletadas mil folhas sadias e expandidas de cinco cultivares de mamona (New Zealand Purple, Sipeal, Carmencita, Amarelo de Irecê e IAC-80), sendo coletadas 200 folhas de cada uma. O comprimento máximo, largura máxima e área foliar foram calculados para cada folha. Foi calculado o produto entre comprimento e largura (LW). Foram realizados testes com diferentes modelos de regressão linear e não linear entre área foliar e dimensões lineares das folhas de cada cultivar. Os modelos utilizados foram linear, linear sem intercepto e potência. Os critérios para escolha dos melhores modelos para estimar a área foliar da mamona foram maior coeficiente de determinação, maior coeficiente de correlação linear de Pearson, menor critério de informação de Akaike, maior índice de concordância de Willmott e menor raiz do erro quadrático médio. As equações que apresentaram melhores critérios para estimativa da área foliar das cultivares de mamona foram aquelas que utilizaram o produto entre comprimento e largura, em comparação às equações que utilizaram apenas uma dimensão foliar. O modelo ŷ = 0,439 × LW pode ser utilizado para estimar com precisão e rapidez a área foliar da mamona por meio de medidas lineares das folhas, utilizando o produto entre comprimento e largura (LW), independente da cultivar escolhida.

ABSTRACT: Using non-destructive and low-cost methods to determine leaf area has gained important applications. The research objectives were (i) to propose a non-destructive method to estimate the leaf area of castor bean crops and (ii) to build equations that accurately and quickly estimate the leaf area of specie. One thousand healthy and expanded leaves of five castor bean cultivars (New Zealand Purple, Sipeal, Carmencita, Amarelo de Irecê, and IAC-80) were collected, and 200 leaves were collected from each. The maximum length, maximum width, and leaf area were calculated for each leaf. The product between length and width (LW) were calculated. We performed tests with different linear and non-linear regression models between leaf area and linear leaf dimensions of each cultivar. The models used were linear, linear without intercept, and power. The criteria for choosing the best models to estimate the leaf area of castor beans were a higher coefficient of determination, more elevated Pearson’s linear correlation coefficient, lower Akaike information criterion, higher Willmott agreement index, and smallest root mean square error. The equations that presented the best criteria for estimating the leaf area of castor bean cultivars were those that used the product between length and width, compared to equations that used only one leaf dimension. The model ŷ = 0.439 × LW can be used to accurately and quickly estimate the castor bean leaf area through linear measurements of the leaves, using the product between length and width (LW), regardless of the cultivar chosen.

ABSTRACT: Herbicide promotes physiological and biochemical changes even in tolerant species. The objective of this study was to evaluate the interference of the herbicides clodinafop-propargyl and 2,4-D in the antioxidant system of wheat, and iodosulfuron-methyl in wheat and ryegrass. Two studies, divided into three experiments, were conducted in an entirely randomized design in a greenhouse and phytotron. The first study tested herbicides iodosulfuron-methyl, clodinafop-propargyl, 2,4-D, and a control without application in wheat. The second, divided into two experiments with wheat and ryegrass, tested iodosulfuron-methyl doses (0, 1.75, 3.5, and 7.0 g a.i. ha-1). The variables analyzed were the concentrations of chlorophylls a, b, carotenoids, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), lipid peroxidation (TBARS), electrolyte leakage, and antioxidant system activity. The herbicide treatments iodosulfuron-methyl, clodinafop-propargyl, and 2,4-D decreased the concentrations of chlorophylls and carotenoids in wheat plants. The herbicides promoted oxidative stress with increased H2O2 and TBARS concentrations. Increasing the dose of iodosulfuron-methyl provided a reduction in the activity of the enzymatic antioxidant system in wheat and ryegrass.

RESUMO: A aplicação de herbicidas promove alterações fisiológicas e bioquímicas mesmo nas espécies tolerantes. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar a interferência dos herbicidas clodinafop-propargyl e 2,4-D no sistema antioxidante do trigo, e iodosulfuron-methyl em trigo e azevém. Dois estudos, divididos em três experimentos, foram conduzidos em delineamento inteiramente casualizado em casa de vegetação e fitotron. O primeiro estudo testou os herbicidas iodosulfuron-methyl, clodinafop-propargyl, 2,4-D, e testemunha sem aplicação em trigo. O segundo, dividido em dois experimentos com trigo e azevém, testou doses de iodosulfuron-methyl doses (0, 1,75, 3,5, and 7,0 g i.a. ha-1). As variáveis analisadas foram as concentrações de clorofilas a, b, carotenoides, peróxido de hidrogênio (H2O2), peroxidação lipídica (TBARS), extravazamento de eletrólitos e atividade do sistema antioxidante. O uso dos herbicidas iodosulfuron-methyl, clodinafop-propagyl e 2,4-D diminuíram o teor de clorofilas e carotenoides nas plantas de trigo. Os herbicidas promovem estresse oxidativo com aumento no teor de H2O2, TBARS e extravasamento de eletrólitos. O aumento da dose do iodosulfuron-methyl proporciona redução da atividade do sistema antioxidante enzimático no trigo e azevém.

Abstract Introduction : Calciphylaxis is a serious vascular dis order characterized by calcification of tunica media, in timal hyperplasia, thrombosis, and skin necrosis. It was described in patients with renal failure (UC), although it can occur in its absence (NUC). Its risk factors are under study and its diagnosis can be complex. Over a decade ago, its mortality was estimated at 60-80%. Recent stud ies indicate that it has decreased (40%). Methods : A retrospective study was carried out in the period between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2019. The past medical record, clinical characteristics, labo ratory and histopathological findings, and evolution of all patients with calciphylaxis evaluated at the Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires were reviewed. Results : Thirty-nine patients were included. Sixty-one percent were men and 39% were NUC cases. Eighty-two percent had arterial hypertension, 66% obesity and 46% diabetes. Of those, 49% received coumarin anticoagulants. All patients with NUC and 75% with UC presented ulcers with necrosis, located more frequently on the legs. In 72% of the cases the histological diagno sis was made with one biopsy. In all the treatment was multimodal and mortality at one year was 42%. Conclusion : We observed a high proportion of pa tients with NUC, in relation to what is reported in the literature, and that half received vitamin K antagonists. The histological diagnosis was made with one biopsy in most of the cases, as the surgical technique for taking the sample, the Von Kossa staining and the evaluation by an expert pathologist were the key of it.

Resumen Introducción : La calcifilaxis es un trastorno vascular grave caracterizado por depósito de calcio en túnica me dia arteriolar, trombosis y necrosis cutánea. Se describió en pacientes con insuficiencia renal (CU), aunque puede producirse en su ausencia (CNU). Sus factores de riesgo están en estudio y su diagnóstico puede ser complejo. Su mortalidad se estimaba en 60-80%, aunque trabajos recientes indican que ha disminuido (40%). Métodos : Estudio retrospectivo entre el 1/1/2011 y el 31/12/2019. Se revisaron los antecedentes, las ca racterísticas clínicas, los hallazgos de laboratorio e histopatológicos, y la evolución de todos los pacientes con diagnóstico de calcifilaxis evaluados en el Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires. Resultados : Se incluyeron 39 pacientes. El 61.5% (24) eran hombres y 38.5% (15) fueron casos de CNU. De éstos, 82% presentaba hipertensión arterial, 66% obesidad y 46% diabetes. El 49% recibía anticoagulantes dicumarínicos. Todos los pacientes con CNU y 75% con CU presentaron úlceras de fondo necrótico, localizadas con mayor frecuencia en las piernas. En 72% de los casos el diagnóstico histológico se efectuó con una toma de biopsia. En todos, el tratamiento fue multimodal y la mortalidad al año fue de 42%. Conclusión : Observamos una elevada proporción de pacientes con CNU, en relación con lo comunicado en la literatura, y la mitad recibía anticoagulantes di cumarínicos. El diagnóstico histológico se efectuó por biopsia en la mayor parte de los casos, para lo cual la toma quirúrgica de la muestra, la tinción con Von Kossa y la evaluación por un patólogo experto fueron claves.

Abstract In the last decade, the pharmaceutical industry has shown great interest in the cultivation of aloe vera [Aloe vera (L.) Burm. F.]. In Mexico, it is grown in different states and agroecological conditions. This study aimed to characterize in situ the agro-morphological characteristics of aloe vera at two sites in the states of Puebla and Veracruz, Mexico. In the 2019 agricultural cycle, two-year-old aloe vera plants were collected in both agroecological regions during both the dry and rainy seasons. The agro-morphological variables recorded were: leaf length, width, contour, thickness and weight, useful leaf weight, residue weight, gel weight, and skin weight. The edaphic variables analyzed were: pH, electrical conductivity, organic matter, texture, bulk density, total nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. In addition, the altitude and average temperature and precipitation of each site were recorded. The variables were analyzed through an analysis of variance, principal components and Pearson’s correlation using the Rstudio program and the Statistical Analysis System. Significantly higher values (p≤ 0.05) were found in 60% of the agro-morphological variables of materials 1P, 2P, and 2V compared to 1V. According to the principal component analysis, the first two principal components accounted for 98.22% of the total morphological variability in the materials evaluated by site. There was a correlation between one geophysical variable, two climatic variables, two edaphic variables and morphological variables, except for leaf width. It is concluded that there is a significant relationship between the agro-morphological characteristics of aloe vera and the agroecological conditions of the site.

Resumen En la última década, la industria farmacéutica ha mostrado gran interés en el cultivo de sábila (Aloe vera (L.) Burm. F.). En México, se cultiva en diferentes estados y condiciones agroecológicas. El objetivo fue caracterizar in situ las características agro-morfológicas de sábila, en dos sitios en los estados de Puebla y Veracruz, México. En el ciclo agrícola 2019, se colectaron plantas de sábila, de dos años, en ambas regiones agroecológicas tanto en época de sequía y de lluvia. Las variables agro-morfológicas registradas fueron: largo, ancho, contorno, espesor, peso de hoja, peso de hoja útil, peso de residuos, peso del gel y peso de piel. Las variables edáficas analizadas fueron: pH, conductividad eléctrica, materia orgánica, textura, densidad aparente, nitrógeno total, fósforo y potasio. Además, se registró la altitud, la temperatura y precipitación medias de cada sitio. Las variables fueron analizadas a través de análisis de varianza, componentes principales y correlación de Pearson empleando el programa Rstudio y Statistical Analysis System. Se encontraron valores significativamente (p≤ 0.05) mayores en el 60% de las variables agro-morfológicas de los materiales 1P, 2P y 2V con respecto al 1V. De acuerdo con el análisis de componentes principales, los dos primeros componentes principales, explicaron el 98. 22% de la variabilidad morfológica total en los materiales evaluados por sitio. Existió correlación entre una variable geofísica, dos climáticas, dos edáficas y morfológicas, excepto ancho de hoja. Se concluye que existe una relación significativa entre las características agro-morfológicas de la sábila y las condiciones agroecológicas del sitio.

ABSTRACT: The cryopreservation of plant germplasm at ultralow temperatures is an alternative technique for the long-term storage of seeds of the genus Coffea sp. However, for this technique to be successful, cell integrity must be maintained at all stages of the process on the basis of scientific research. The present study investigated validated cryopreservation protocols for Coffea arabica L. seeds and evaluate the effects on the physiological and biochemical characteristics of the seeds at each stage of the process. Seeds were dried on silica gel or with saturated saline solution, precooled or not in a biofreezer, immersed in nitrogen, and reheated in a water bath. After each of these steps, the physiological and biochemical quality of the seeds was determined. Pre-cooling is a step that can be dispensed with in the cryopreservation of Coffea arabica seeds, direct immersion in liquid nitrogen being more indicated. Coffea arabica L. seeds tolerate cryopreservation after rapid drying in silica gel up to water contents of 17 or 20% (wb), with greater survival at 17%. The enzyme activities of catalase, polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase are indicators of the quality of C. arabica L. seeds subjected to cryopreservation.

RESUMO: A criopreservação de germoplasma vegetal em temperaturas ultrabaixas é uma alternativa para o armazenamento em longo prazo de sementes do gênero Coffea sp. Entretanto, para que essa técnica apresente sucesso, a realização de pesquisas que garantam a manutenção da integridade celular em todas as etapas do processo é de fundamental importância. O objetivo com o presente trabalho foi investigar protocolos de criopreservação validados para sementes de Coffea arabica L., avaliando separadamente, os efeitos sobre as características fisiológicas e bioquímicas das sementes, em cada etapa do processo. As sementes foram secadas em sílica gel ou em solução salina saturada, submetidas ou não ao pré-resfriamento em biocongelador, em seguida imersas no nitrogênio e reaquecidas em banho-maria. Após cada uma dessas etapas, a qualidade fisiológica e bioquímica das sementes foi determinada. O pré-resfriamento é uma etapa que pode ser dispensada na criopreservação de sementes de Coffea arabica, sendo mais indicada a imersão direta em nitrogênio líquido. Sementes de Coffea arabica L. toleram a criopreservação após secagem rápida em sílica gel até teores de água de 17 ou 20% (wb), com maior sobrevivência a 17%. A atividade das enzimas catalase, polifenoloxidase e peroxidase são indicadoras da qualidade de sementes de Coffea arabica L. submetidas à criopreservação.

ABSTRACT. Popcorn (Zea mays L. everta) is a specialty crop with a higher aggregate economic value than that of common maize. In Brazil, national literature is still incipient and contradictory in terms of plant population management and water requirements. Furthermore, the interaction between these factors has not been reported, despite the increasing cultivation of popcorn. The objective of this trial was to determine whether agricultural traits and popping expansion from hybrid IAC 125 could be affected by plant density and levels of irrigation water, in addition to determining the significance level of the interaction between both factors. We investigated five plant populations (40,000, 55,000, 70,000, 85,000, and 100,000 plants ha-1) and five different levels of water depth in 2014/2015 [574.86 (without supplementary irrigation), 609.86, 644.86, 679.86 (control), and 714.86 mm] and 2015/2016 [857.4 (without supplementary irrigation), 867.26, 886.60, 916.78 (control), and 959.81 mm] using a complete block design with split-plot, comprising a main plot (for plant populations) and subplot (for water depth), with six replicates for each set. We found increasing linear effects from grain yield under population density and levels of water depth, but this interaction was not significant. Moreover, the popping expansion for the main effects and the interaction between plant populations and water depth, were not significant.

Abstract In this work, evaluated the antifungal chemosensitizing effect of the Lippia origanoides essential oil (EO) through the induction of oxidative stress. The EO was obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC-MS. To evaluate the antifungal chemosensitizing effect through induction of oxidative stress, cultures of the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae ∆ycf1 were exposed to sub-inhibitory concentrations of the EO, and the expression of genes known, due be overexpressed in response to oxidative and mutagenic stress was analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) method. Carvacrol and thymol were identified as the main components. The EO was effective in preventing or reducing the growth of the microorganisms tested. The gene expression profiles showed that EO promoted changes in the patterns of expression of genes involved in oxidative and mutagenic stress resistance. The combined use of the L. origanoides EO with fluconazole has been tested on Candida yeasts and the strategy resulted in a synergistic enhancement of the antifungal action of the azolic chemical product. Indeed, in association with EO, the fluconazole MICs dropped. Thus, the combinatorial use of L. origanoides EO as a chemosensitizer agent should contribute to enhancing the efficiency of conventional antifungal drugs, reducing their negative side effects. work (EO GCMS.

ABSTRACT: Feline leishmaniosis is infrequent worldwide, and cats have been suggested as secondary reservoirs for the parasite. However, specific diagnostic techniques for feline samples are scarce. In this study, we standardized an in-house indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using crude Leishmaniainfantum antigen to detect antibodies in feline samples from an endemic canine visceral leishmaniosis (CVL) area in the western border of Brazil. The results were compared with those of an indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA). We tested semi-domiciled felines residing in Uruguaiana and Barra do Quaraí, Rio Grande do Sul. Among the 41 samples, 25 (61%) were positive using ELISA and 24 (58%) were positive using IFA (1:40). Our findings demonstrated a high seropositivity of feline samples from the endemic CVL area in the western border of Brazil, and we proposed the use of an in-house ELISA with crude antigen for population screening. This is the first serological survey on felines in a region where CVL is well established.

ABSTRACT The cultivation of pecan (Carya illinoinensis K. Koch) and olive trees (Olea europaea L.) near pasture and grain cultivation areas in southern Brazil has caused herbicide drift problems. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the phytotoxic effects of herbicides 2,4-D and dicamba on the growth of pecan and olive tree seedlings. A total of 8 underdoses were used, as follows: 0, 1.56, 3.125, 6.25, 12.0, 25.0, 50.0, and 100% of the recommended doses of herbicides 2,4-D (670 g a.e ha-1) and dicamba (720 g a.e ha-1) for burndown. The applications were carried out in 80 cm-high seedlings with the aid of a CO2 pressurized sprayer with a spray solution volume of 150 L. ha-1. The analyzed variables were phytotoxicity at 7, 14, 21, 30 and 60 days after spray (DAA) and plant height and stem diameter at 30 and 60 DAA. The drift of hormonal herbicides caused damage to the growth of pecan and olive trees, decreasing their stem diameter and height, with the herbicide dicamba showing the greatest damage. In addition, doses above 12.5% of both herbicides resulted in phytotoxicity levels greater than 60%, and doses of 50 and 100% were responsible for leaf senescence.

RESUMO O cultivo de nogueira-pecã (Carya illinoinensis K. Koch) e oliveira (Olea europaea L.) no Sul do Brasil próximo a áreas de pastagens e de cultivo de grãos tem registrado problemas de deriva de herbicidas. Diante disso, o objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar os efeitos fitotóxicos dos herbicidas 2,4-D e dicamba sob o crescimento de mudas de nogueira-pecã e oliveira. Para isso, utilizaram-se 8 subdoses, sendo elas 0; 1,56; 3,125; 6,25; 12,0; 25,0%; 50,0; e 100% das doses recomendadas para dessecação dos herbicidas 2,4-D (670 g e.a ha-1) e dicamba (720 g i.a ha-1). As aplicações foram realizadas em mudas com 80 cm de altura com auxílio de um pulverizador costal pressurizado a CO2 com volume de calda de 150 L ha-1. As variáveis analisadas foram a fitotoxicidade aos 7, 14, 21, 30 e 60 dias após a aplicação (DAA), estatura de plantas e diâmetro de caule aos 30 e 60 DAA. A deriva de herbicidas hormonais causou danos ao crescimento das plantas de nogueira e oliveira, diminuindo o diâmetro de caule e a estatura das mesmas, sendo o herbicida dicamba o responsável pelos maiores danos. Além disso, doses acima de 12,5% de ambos os herbicidas resultaram em fitotoxicidade superior a 60%, sendo as doses de 50 e 100% responsáveis pela senescência de folhas. nogueirapecã pecã Carya K Koch Olea L. disso 2,4D 24D D 2,4 2 4 isso utilizaramse utilizaram se subdoses 0 1,56 156 1 56 3,125 3125 3 125 6,25 625 6 25 12,0 120 12 25,0% 250 50,0 500 100 670 (67 ea ha1 ha ha-1 720 (72 ia i ha1. .

ABSTRACT: The state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS) is the third largest sunflower producer in Brazil. This study verified the existence of linear relationships between grain yield, oil content, and oil yield in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) genotypes evaluated in RS. The data on grain yield (GY), oil content (OC), and oil yield (OY) were obtained from 73 sunflower cultivar trials in 21 municipalities in RS from 1999 to 2018. Scatter diagrams were createdto investigate the relationships between the variables GY, OC, and OY. Then, Pearson’s linear correlation coefficient (r) was calculated between the variables, and the Student’s t-test was performed at a 5% significance level. There is a positive and significant linear relationship between PG and OY. However, no linear relationship was found between grain yield and oil content in sunflower genotypes. Additionally, a positive linear association of high magnitude (r = 0.9672) was observed between grain yield and oil yield, while a low magnitude (r = 0.2245) was found between oil content and oil yield.

ABSTRACT: Fungal diseases in Brazilian regions with tropical and subtropical climates reduce the production potential of corn crops. The use of fungicides is one of the strategies to maintain productivity. This study evaluated the agronomic performance and grain quality of corn hybrids associated with the preventive use of fungicides in subtropical environments. Six experiments were conducted in Santa Maria-RS, São Vicente do Sul-RS, and FredericoWestphalen-RS during two sowing seasons. The experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with a split-plot arrangement, in which the main plot consisted of two levels of the fungicide factor (with and without) and the sub-plot consisted of six levels of corn hybrids (AG9025, AS1730, P3016, MG300, DKB230, and FEROZ). A total of 216 experimental plots were evaluated for grain productivity, and eight plants per plot were evaluated for other traits, totaling 1,728 evaluated plants. Therefore, environmental conditions influence the interaction between the factors of fungicide use and hybrid cultivar positioning, with no significant interaction in years with a water deficit. Early sowings in subtropical environments indicate better agronomic performance and a lower percentage of moldy grains regardless of the cultivation location, contributing to grain quality.

RESUMO: No Brasil, em regiões de clima tropical e subtropical, as doenças fúngicas reduzem o potencial produtivo da cultura do milho. Uma das estratégias utilizadas para manutenção do potencial produtivo é o uso de fungicidas. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o desempenho agronômico e qualidade de grãos de hibridos de milho, associado ao uso preventivo de fungicida em ambientes subtropicais. Foram conduzidos seis experimentos, em Santa Maria - RS, São Vicente do Sul - RS e Frederico Westphalen - RS em duas épocas de semeadura. O delineamento experimental foi de blocos ao acaso com parcelas subdivididas, onde a parcela principal foi formada pelos dois níveis do fator fungicida (com e sem) e a subparcela pelos seis níveis do fator híbridos de milho (AG9025, AS1730, P3016, MG300, DKB230 e FEROZ). Foram avaliados 216 parcelas experimentais para a variável produtividade de grãos e oito plantas por parcela para os demais caracteres, totalizando 1.728 plantas avaliadas. Portanto, as condições ambientais interferem na interação entre os fatores uso de fungicidas e posicionamento de cultivares híbridas, não ocorrendo interação significativa entre os fatores em ano com a presença de déficit hídrico. Independentemente do local de cultivo, semeaduras precoces em ambiente subtropical, indicam melhor desempenho agronômico e menor percentual de grãos deteriorados contribuindo com a qualidade dos grãos.

The article aims to address the use of the theoretical-methodological teaching strategy, Problematized Experimental Activity (PEA), to introduce a method employed in chemometrics, called Principal Component Analysis, through digital images linked to a smartphone app (REDGIM®). The application of a didactic workshop occurred in the pandemic context of SARS-CoV2, in remote teaching, with students of the undergraduate course in Chemistry of a public University of Espírito Santo. The students were divided into two groups and developed solutions to a proposed problem, working with the themes: differentiation of false and true banknotes, and recognition of patterns in vegetable oils. The groups presented promising results in terms of learning in the development of their experimental methodologies and were able to have contact with analysis of chemical problems that are still little explored in the undergraduate course. theoreticalmethodological theoretical methodological strategy PEA, PEA , (PEA) chemometrics Analysis REDGIM®.

Abstract This work investigated the annual variations in dry snow (DSRZ) and wet snow radar zones (WSRZ) in the north of the Antarctic Peninsula between 2015-2023. A specific code for snow zone detection on Sentinel-1 images was created on Google Earth Engine by combining the CryoSat-2 digital elevation model and air temperature data from ERA5. Regions with backscatter coefficients (σ⁰) values exceeding -6.5 dB were considered the extent of surface melt occurrence, and the dry snow line was considered to coincide with the -11 °C isotherm of the average annual air temperature. The annual variation in WSRZ exhibited moderate correlations with annual average air temperature, total precipitation, and the sum of annual degree-days. However, statistical tests indicated low determination coefficients and no significant trend values in DSRZ behavior with atmospheric variables. The results of reducing DSRZ area for 2019/2020 and 2020/2021 compared to 2018/2018 indicated the upward in dry zone line in this AP region. The methodology demonstrated its efficacy for both quantitative and qualitative analyses of data obtained in digital processing environments, allowing for the large-scale spatial and temporal variations monitoring and for the understanding changes in glacier mass loss.

Abstract: Rice seeds have a dormancy which is understood as resistance to pre- and post-harvest germination. Thus, the present study aims to evaluate periods and temperatures in the pre-drying of rice seeds (cultivar IRGA 431 CL) to overcome dormancy. An experiment was carried out in a completely randomized design at the Didactic and Seed Research Laboratory, at the Federal University of Santa Maria. Three lots of the cultivar IRGA 431 CL were used. For the present study, temperatures of 35, 40, 45, 50 and 55 °C in a forced-air circulation oven were used to overcome seed dormancy. At each temperature the seeds remained for periods of 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144 and 168 h. First count, germination, and seedling root and shoot lengths were evaluated in the experiment. The data obtained were subjected to analysis of variance and compared by response surface. Temperature between 41 and 44 °C for a period of 95 h is more indicated to overcome dormancy in seeds of the IRGA 431 CL cultivar in a forced-air circulation oven.
