Abstract This study assessed the effects of slope exposure, altitude and yield on several cup quality criteria coffees from two terroirs Costa Rica, Orosi (between 1020 1250 m above sea level) Santa María de Dota 1550 1780 level). East‐facing slopes gave beverages with generally superior attributes, probably owing to better exposure morning sunlight. These were mainly more acid: at an acidity score 2.73 out 5 was obtained (3.64 for Dota) eastern exposures, as opposed 2.36 average (3.28 other...
Core Ideas The cultivars Tamani and Zuri have greater nutritive value than cultivar Massai. individual cattle performance was in pastures. Massai provided the same liveweight gain per area Zuri. can be used grazing systems aiming growing fattening. minimize usual guineagrass restrictions during rainy‐dry season transition. development of forage suitable for Brazilian Cerrados should incorporate long‐term results, ensuring released material persistent high quality. objective study to evaluate...
Abstract The use of stylosanthes in mixed grass‐legume pastures may minimize the decline forage quality and quantity that occurs monoculture grass pastures, even though availability commercial cultivars Brazil is still limited. objective study was to evaluate liveweight (LW) gain young Nellore bulls a pasture Brachiaria brizantha (cv. Paiaguás) with latest release Stylosanthes guianensis cv. Bela. conducted Planaltina, FD, Brazil, from September August two consecutive years, right after...
Major objectives for alfalfa ( Medicago sativa L.) breeding include improving forage quality and levels of disease resistance. Little is known about the associations between characteristics, including pectin (the main component neutral detergent‐soluble fiber [NDSF]), resistance vigor in alfalfa. Our were to determine, two populations, (i) correlations among NDSF other traits; (ii) traits with plant persistence, vigor, diseases; (iii) heritabilities expected gains from selection...
New highly productive guineagrass (Megathyrsus maximus syn. Panicum maximum) cultivars have been released in Brazil and grazing trials are necessary to evaluate their carrying capacity forage quality. The objective of this study was the liveweight gains young Nellore bulls 3 under rotational stocking. experiment carried out Planaltina (Federal District, Brazil) during a single rainy (November‒April) dry (May‒August) season. Treatments were Massai (control), BRS Tamani Zuri cultivars....
Selection of superior forage genotypes is based on agronomic traits assayed in repeated measures. The questions are how repeatable the performance individual and many harvests needed to select best genotypes. objectives were estimate repeatability coefficients dry matter yield (DMY) quality, their phenotypic stability number for an accurate selection. Two randomized complete block design experiments data with 24 each, undergoing 12 16 harvests, over a period 2 3 years, respectively, used....
Este estudo aborda aspectos ecológicos da inundação em plântulas de Piptadenia gonoacantha, uma espécie ocorrente Matas Galeria. O crescimento com cinco meses idade foi avaliado duas condições solo (capacidade campo e inundado) combinados três níveis luz solar (100%, 70% 40%). A reduziu o aéreo radicial das plântulas. Não houve interação entre inundação, exceto para massa seca foliar aos 60 dias razão parte aérea/raiz 20 dias. Plântulas inundadas a pleno sol apresentaram cerca 67% menor que...
Abstract: The objective of this work was to estimate the repeatability coefficients mangaba (Hancornia speciosa) fruit traits, in order define number needed for an accurate selection superior genotypes, as well conjecture about nature phenotypic variation these traits. Evaluations were performed 160 16 genotypes from two native H. speciosa populations Goiás Velho and Padre Bernardo, state Goiás, Brazil. Repeatability estimated by analysis variance, principal component analyses based on...
A alocação de recursos é um dos problemas interesse para gestores organizações, notadamente quando diante sua escassez ou limitação. Este artigo tem como objetivo usar modelo produção baseado na Análise Envoltória Dados (DEA) com Ganhos Soma Zero (DEA-GSZ), alocar bolsas iniciação científica aos centros pesquisa da Empresa Brasileira Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa). As unidades sob avaliação são os 37 empresa. Como variável produto usou-se a cotas bolsas, e insumos proxies científica,...
Increasing neutral detergent‐soluble fiber (NDSF) concentration has been considered a strategy for breeding alfalfa ( Medicago sativa L.) with improved quality. Pectin is the main component of NDSF and highly digestible, but assay time‐consuming. The objectives were (i) to determine potential use near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) predict in (ii) estimate heritability gain from selection. Herbage was sampled five times across 2 yr two populations half‐sib (HS) progeny tested at...
O nematóide-das-galhas radiculares, Meloidogyne javanica, comumente causa redução em produtividade de ervilha, Pisum sativum L., no Distrito Federal. efeito javanica crescimento da ervilha cv. Triofin foi avaliado cinco níveis inóculos: 0, 10, 100, 1.000 e 10.000 ovos/kg solo, casa vegetação. Houve progressiva planta com o aumento do inóculos. fator multiplicação negativamente proporcional ao inóculo inicial. A nodulação bacteriana também seriamente afetada todos os inóculo, exceto 10 que...
Gamba grass (Andropogon gayanus Kunth) is a tussock-forming forage species adapted to acid soils of Brazilian savannas and cultivated for grazing pastures. Four decades since its releasing, Planaltina prevails as the most commercialized cultivar species, even though new BRS Sarandi could be better alternative grass-based farms by presenting greater leaf:stem ratio. The objective this study was evaluate average daily live weight gain (ADG) Nellore bulls (Bos indicus) two cultivars –...
