Air pollution substantially damages ecosystems and public health is one of the major challenges for air quality monitoring management. The use plant bioindicator Tradescantia pallida (Rose) D. R. Hunt has shown excellent results in terms determining effect airborne contaminants urban environments, complementing conventional methods. present study seeks to determine Ivinhema Valley, MS, using variation MCN frequency stomatal indices T. as biomarkers. biomonitoring tests were performed monthly...
The present study aims to relate the micronucleus frequency in Tradescantia pallida environmental factors and cardiorespiratory diseases infer effect of air pollution. number hospitalizations, cases, micronuclei plants, variables, altitude, vehicle traffic cities Mato Grosso do Sul were evaluated due high flow that surrounds agribusiness. decreased with increase relative humidity, while altitude did not influence mutagenicity or genotoxicity plants. municipalities frequencies above 200 had...
The objective of this study was to assess air quality in relation vehicular traffic flow cities located at different elevations the Bodoquena microregion, state Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. To so, a micronucleus test carried out using TRAD-MCN bioassay on young Tradescantia buds collected from February November 2018 seven microregion with intensities. Meteorological parameters were evaluated, and counted determine each city. With data Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) processing Esri...
The feeding activity of Plutella xylostella in brassica crops can lead to large losses; thus, pesticides that prevent during the larval stage or metamorphosis this insect be used for its control. In study, effects two types aqueous extracts Tradescantia pallida on different life P. cycle were tested; neither extracts, which obtained by infusion and maceration, had been tested against xylostella. biological variables evaluated pupal duration viability, weight, sex ratio, longevity females,...
Diamondback moth represents one of the major Brassicaceae plagues and main current control method relies on agrotoxins use. The search for alternative phytosanitary methods demonstrates that vegetal extracts have broadly studied now represent a relevant option to insects-plagues in small cultivation areas. Was evaluated effect aqueous extract Tradescantia pallida 10% oviposition feeding preference Plutella xylostella, laboratory conditions. That plant does not present herbivory reports,...
Pollination is an effective ecological interaction to the development and maintenance of environment present in subtle way daily life, however very relevant. In this paper we analyzed foraging activities floral visitors Bixa orellana reproduction system (Bixaceae) Glory Dourados-MS. This plant species are widely used textile industries, food as medicine. The visitors' were evaluated for five nonconsecutive days 20 minutes each hour (7:00 17:20 h). Registering behavior data frequency visits...
