<title>Abstract</title> The productivity of eucalyptus is threatened by several pests, including the red gum lerp psyllid, Glycaspis brimblecombei, which causes significant losses in forest systems. In Brazil, lacewings Ceraeochrysa cubana and Chrysoperla externa are common plantations, but little known about behavior these predators toward psyllid. This study evaluated predatory larvae both lacewing species on psyllid eggs nymphs. Subsequently, capacity functional response C. were...
Antimicrobial proteins of the regenerating family member 3 alpha (REG3A) provide a first line protection against infections and transformed cells. Their expression is inducible by inflammation, which makes their role in cancer biology less clear since an immune-inflammatory context may preexist or coexist with cancer, as occurs HCC. The aim this study to clarify REG3A liver carcinogenesis determine whether its carbohydrate-binding functions are involved.
Leaf-cutting ants of the genus Atta are an important insect pest in forest plantations many countries South America. The objective this work was to evaluate potential for using Landsat-8 images, with medium spatial resolution and distributed free charge, detect leaf-cutting ant nests Tectona grandis Brazil, partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). regression model adjusted by PLS-DA selected three principal components a cross-validation error 0.275 map predict presence these...
The effects of intercropping Brassicaceae with coriander (Coriandrum sativum), dill (Anethum graveolens), African marigold (Tagetes erecta) and calendula (Calendula officinalis) on the abundance, species richness diversity predators parasitoids Lipaphis erysimi have been assessed. numbers aphids, parasitized aphids natural enemies were determined during two consecutive phases. first period comprised vegetative phase companion plants up to onset flowering development kale start harvesting,...
Defoliation by leaf-cutting ants in commercial forest plantations is one of the leading causes biomass and productivity losses affecting all Brazilian industrial forest. Thus, development monitoring tools that allow extracting information below surface large areas, such as synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems, crucial. This work presents a method for ant nest size estimation based on SAR images. A field study carried out using drone-borne system to survey eucalyptus helical flight pattern...
Thaumastocoris peregrinus (Hemiptera: Thaumastocoridae), the bronze bug, is among many species of insect pests affecting commercial Eucalyptus forests in Brazil. T. reduces photosynthetic ability trees and some cases can lead to complete death trees. This research aims assess potential freely available medium-resolution Landsat 8 imagery predicting mapping attacks caused by bug plantations Brazil using partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA). The PLS-DA model selected three...
The clonal propagation of Eucalyptus in plastic tube containers with growing media substrate without direct contact seedlings soil floor nurseries, changed the status insects such as fungus gnats (Diptera: Sciaridae), especially genus Bradysia. This study monitored populations adults within a spp. tree nursery municipality Bom Despacho, Minas Gerais State, Brazil. Adult samples were collected monthly, during seven months 58 yellow sticker card traps, including 21 mini garden, 16 greenhouse,...
Neste trabalho, objetivou-se comparar a resistência das madeiras de cedro australiano (Toona ciliata) e pinus (Pinus sp.) painéis aglomerados produzidos com essas espécies ao ataque do cupim madeira seca Cryptotermes brevis, bem como quantificar mortalidade dos insetos. Foram colocados 30 pseudo-operários em placas Petri acrílico 9,5 cm diâmetro, contendo as amostras (1,5 x 1,5 0,5 cm) folhas algodão posicionadas sobre tampas perfuradas umedecidas diariamente 5 ml água. As foram...
Leaf-cutting ants are one of the most important pests eucalyptus plantations and it is essential to monitor control these insects avoid damage wood production. The objective this research was assess utility multispectral sensor, Sentinel-2 (S-2) in mapping defoliation caused by leaf-cutting Eucalyptus plantations. study carried out Telêmaco Borba, Paraná state, Brazil. ant nests were located, measured georeferenced. Multispectral images from bands 2, 3, 4 8 S-2 satellite four vegetation...
RESUMO O presente trabalho teve como objetivo determinar a composição centesimal (cinzas, umidade, proteínas, lipídeos e carboidratos totais) mineral (Na, K, Ca, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn Zn) das plantas medicinais Barbatimão (Stryphnodendron adstringens (Mart.) Coville), Carqueja (Baccharis trimera (Less) D.C.), Mangava-Brava (Lafoensia pacari A. St.-Hil.), Quebra Pedra (Phyllanthus niruri L.) comercializadas no mercado do Porto de Cuiabá, MT. As amostras foram identificadas botanicamente por meio da...
Abstract Diaphania hyalinata (Linnaeus, 1767) is one of the main pests cucurbit crops. Biological control and botanicals are used in integrated pest management (IPM), especially agro-ecological agricultures where use synthetic pesticides restricted. Toxicological effects plant essential oils on target nontarget organisms should be evaluated to determine its IPM. The toxicity ginger, peppermint, oregano, thyme D. eggs, larvae, pupae their selectivity parasitoid Trichospilus pupivorus LC50,...
Coptotermes testaceus (Linnaeus, 1758) is the most important species of heartwood termite adult trees in forests planted Brazil. This study aimed to characterize injuries promoted by C. Tectona grandis commercial stands. Tree bark with extend carton material on outside, forming external galleries and internal stem a high infestation, was found August 2018, clonal plantations T. 4.2 7.2-year age. Internal were characterized inside length presence some soil, material, termites galleries. The...
Wood-borers of exotic and native trees are important pests eucalyptus in many regions the world. The feeding behavior these insects causes losses wood production. aim this study was to identify Cerambycidae beetles inhabiting plantations clonal hybrid (Eucalyptus grandis × E. urophylla hybrid; Myrtales: Myrtaceae) cerrado vegetation order improve knowledge about potential wood-borers habitats. were collected weekly using baited traps located within stands vegetation. In total, 3,377...
The presence of leaf-cutting ants in commercial forest plantations is one the main causes loss biomass and productivity that affect large pulp producers Brazil. Thus, development monitoring tools allow extraction information below surface areas, such as SAR systems, crucial importance. This work presents a set unprecedented electromagnetic simulations for detection ant nests with 6 up to 385 chambers industrial forests. different tests range from one-signal case tomographic processing based...
Termites are social insects with high species diversity in tropical ecosystems. Multivariate analysis near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and data interpretation can separate belonging to different colonies of the same species. The objective this study was propose use discriminant by partial least squares (PLS-DA) combined NIRS identify colonial origin Syntermes grandis (Rambur, 1842) (Blattodea: Termitidae) 2 castes. Six ground S. were identified mapped; 30 workers soldier termites each...
