Caracterização fisiológica e conservação de sementes de oito fruteiras nativas do bioma floresta com araucária
No full textAs fruteiras nativas brasileiras mesmo apresentando potencial de uso na agricultura, têm sido pouco exploradas comercialmente. Neste sentido, devem-se estimular estudos que permitam fomentar futuros programas de melhoramento e tecnologias para sua produção. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar o comportamento fisiológico de sementes de fruteiras do Bioma Floresta com Araucária, bem como, testar métodos para conservação das mesmas. O trabalho foi conduzido no Laboratório de Fisiologia Vegetal e no Viveiro de Produção de Mudas da Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná – Câmpus Dois Vizinhos – Paraná. Foram utilizadas sementes de frutos maturos fisiologicamente das fruteiras nativas guabijuzeiro, guabirobeira, pitangueira, jabuticabeira de cabinho, jabuticabeira híbrida, cerejeira-do-mato, ameixeira da mata e sete capoteiro. Os frutos foram coletados conforme época de suas respectivas frutificações, em produtores da região Sudoeste do Paraná. Foi realizado quatro experimentos, sendo o primeiro para determinação do teor de umidade das sementes, onde adotou-se o delineamento inteiramente ao acaso, com 12 tratamentos e quatro repetições de 100 sementes. O segundo foi para verificar a longevidade das sementes durante 18 meses, por meio do armazenamento das mesmas em sacos de papel e garrafas PET® como embalagens e, adotando-se o uso ou não de fécula de mandioca como biofilme. O experimento foi instalado em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, em trifatorial 2 x 2 x 18 (embalagem de armazenamento x biofilme x período de armazenamento), com quatro repetições de 100 sementes. No terceiro fez-se estudo da dormência, testando técnicas para quebra da dormência em sementes destas oito fruteiras nativas, utilizando o uso de luz e sem luz. O experimento foi instalado em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, em esquema fatorial 2 x 7 (luminosidade x tratamento para quebra da dormência), com quatro repetições de 100 sementes. O quarto trabalho foi realizado para validação do teste de tetrazólio em sementes de jabuticabeira e cerejeira-da-mata armazenadas. A maior e mais rápida redução do teor de umidade diminuiu a capacidade germinativa das sementes de guabijuzeiro, jabuticabeiras híbrida e de cabinho e ameixeira-da-mata. A garrafa PET® permitiu maior conservação aumentando o número de sementes germinadas. O biofilme pode ser considerada técnica promissora para aumentar a eficiência no processo germinativo de cerejeira-da-mata. As sementes das espécies nativas estudadas não apresentam dormência, exceção para sete capoteiro que apresentaram dormência fisiológica controlada pelo fotoblastismo negativo, já que somente germinaram na ausência de luz. As sementes de cerejeira-da-mata (E. involucrata) podem ser conservadas em temperatura controlada (6°C) por pelo menos 45 dias. Sementes de jabuticabeira de cabinho (P. trunciflora) embaladas a vácuo conservam sua viabilidade por pelo menos 35 dias. O teste Tetrazólio apresentou-se viável e mais rápido para avaliar a viabilidade das sementes de cerejeira-da-mata e de jabuticabeira de Cabinho.The Brazilian native fruits have potential use in agriculture, but it is little exploited commercially. In this sense, it should be encouraged studies for use in future breeding programs and obtain of technologies for its cultive. The aim of this work was to study the seed physiological characterization from native fruits Araucaria Forest Biome, as well as, it to test methods for seed storage. The work was carried out at Plant Physiology Laboratory and Nursery Sector of UTFPR - Câmpus Dois Vizinhos, Paraná State, Brazil. It was use seeds physiologically mature fruits Brazilian native from guabiju tree, guabiroba tree, Surinam Cherry tree, Cabinho and Hybrid jabuticaba tree, Native cherry tree, Native plum tree and sete capote tree. The fruits were harvested according period yield, in Southwest region of Paraná State. It was carried out four experiments, it being the first to identify the critical moisture content that affect seed germination, through the experimental design completely randomized, with 12 treatments and 4 replications of one hundred seeds by plot. The second was to evaluated the seed viability during 18 months through the PET® bottle (300 mL) and white waxed paper bag as storage packing and, the cassava starch biofilm application or not. The experimental design was blocks completely randomized, in factorial 2. x 2 x 18 (storage packaging x biofilm x storage time), with 4 replications of one hundred seeds by plot. In the third was dormancy study through it technical test for seeds break dormancy from eight fruit Brazilian trees, with or without light. The fourth experiment was realized for Tetrazolium test validation with jabuticaba fruit and Native cherry seeds stored. The greater and more rapid moisture content reduction decreased the guabiju seed tree, Hybrid and Cabinho seeds jabuticaba tree and Native plum tree germination process. However, new studies will be necessary to assess the seed viability on condition of lower moisture content. The PET® bottle permitted greater conservation, it increased the seed germination. The biofilm can be consider promising technique to increase germination efficiency of Native fruit cherry. The native Brazilian fruit seed species didn't have dormancy, except for sete capote fruit tree that presented morf were considered capoteiro showed physiological dormancy controlled by photoblastic negative response, it have germination only in the light absence. The Cabinho jabuticaba fruit (P. trunciflora) seeds vacuum packed maintains its viability about thirty five days. The Tetrazolium test presented viable and faster to evaluated the Native cherry and Cabinho jabuticaba fruit seeds viability
Characterization and frutification of an apirenic access of pitangueira
No full textThe native fruit trees have gained attention by producers and consumers, already that it is consider as functional food. In the case of Surinan Cherry tree, it is one of native fruit trees with commercial cultive, it being currently exploited by the juice and cosmetics industry. For the industry, in general, it is important that the Surinan Cherry fruit to present the maximum pulp content. However, the fruits of this specie do not have this characteristic, because they generally produce large seeds comparatively to the fruit size. Nevertheless, there is a genotype that produces fruit withou seed from UTFPR - Câmpus Dois Vizinhos, Paraná State, Brazil, what to change the market, and itcan attracted more fruit growers interested its cultive. But, the causes of this characteristic have to be elucidated for in the future for it be posible have in the market genotypes producing fruit quality superior and without seed. The aim of this work was to elucidate the causes of fruit without seed in the Surinan Cherry (Eugenia uniflora L) and its fruit quality was comparated with of the other Surinan Cherry trees. The works were carried out at the Microscopy and Plant Physiology Laboratories and at the native fruit collection area from UTFPR - Câmpus Dois Vizinhos - Paraná State, Brazil. In addition, to have works at Aula Dei Experimental Station (Zaragoza, Spain). Genotypes of Surinan cherry (Eugeia uniflora L.), which produce fruits with and without seeds (pirenics and apirenic, respectively) it was studied. Experiments were carried out involving floral and reproductive biology of Surinan cherry tree; it was realized histological sections for description of embryogenesis and ontogenesis; levels of ploidy and evaluation of the fruit quality. It can to be observed that the apirenic genotype in many characteristics was not different to pirenic genotype. It was verified that the pirenic genotype presented a longer period of flowering and fruiting and, presented a higher number of pollen by flower compared to apirenic genotype. The apirenic genotype can to serve as a basis for crosses directed in the fruit breeding of Surinan cherry, to try obtaining new hybrids, with this characteristic, already that, this fruit present quality to in nature or industry market.CAPESAs fruteiras nativas vêm ganhando atenção pelos produtores e consumidores, já que são consideradas como alimento funcional. No caso da pitangueira, é uma das únicas fruteiras nativas com plantio comercial, sendo atualmente, explorada pela indústria de sucos e de cosméticos. Para a indústria, em geral, é importante que os frutos da pitangueira apresentem o máximo rendimento de polpa. Entretanto, os frutos desta fruteira não possuem tal característica, por produzirem geralmente sementes grandes comparativamente, ao tamanho dos frutos. Contudo, foi identificado na coleção de fruteiras nativas da UTFPR - Câmpus Dois Vizinhos um genótipo produtor de pitangas sem sementes, o que pode revolucionar o mercado, atraindo mais fruticultores interessados em seu plantio. Porém, as causas desta característica devem ser elucidadas para que se possa futuramente, lançar no mercado, genótipos produtores de frutos com qualidade superior e sem sementes. O objetivo deste trabalho foi buscar elucidar as possíveis causas da apirenia em pitangueira (Eugenia uniflora L) e caracterizar comparativamente a qualidade do fruto produzido pela mesma . Os trabalhos foram realizados nos Laboratórios de Microscopia e de Fisiologia Vegetal e, na área da coleção de frutas nativas da UTFPR – Câmpus Dois Vizinhos – Paraná e, na Estação experimental de Aula Dei (Zaragoza, Espanha). Foram utilizados genótipos de pitangueira (E. uniflora L.) que produzem frutos com e sem sementes (pirênicos e apirênicos, respectivamente), pertencentes à coleção da referida Instituição. Foram realizados experimentos envolvendo a biologia floral e reprodutiva da pitangueira; feitos cortes histológicos para descrição da embriogênese e ontogênese; níveis de ploidia e avaliação da qualidade de frutos. Pode-se constatar que o acesso apirênico, em muitas características não se diferenciou do acesso pirênico, mas foi verificado que este último tem maior período de floração e frutificação, maior número de polén por flor, comparado ao acesso apirênico. O acesso apirênico encontrado poderá servir de base para cruzamentos dirigidos no melhoramento genético da cultura, buscando-se novos híbridos, com essa característica, pois seus frutos apresentaram qualidades que permitem enquadrá-las para dupla finalidade

No full textEducating for Sustainability: Competencies & Practices for Transformative Action
No full textabstract: Achieving a sustainable future requires that individuals adopt different values, attitudes, habits, and behaviors, which are often learned and cemented at a young age. Unfortunately, current educational efforts are inadequate for achieving transformative action. Even programs whose primary goal is to promote responsible, pro-environmental behaviors have largely failed at creating change among students. The lack of efficacy in sustainability-related educational programs is at least partly due to faulty assumptions about knowledge automatically leading to action, and by extension, the information- intensive methods that focus largely on declarative knowledge regarding how environmental systems work. Meanwhile, social science literature clearly highlights the need to go beyond ecological and technical knowledge when educating for transformative action, since sustainable behaviors are motivated by much more than declarative information. In order to effectively educate for sustainability, alternative forms of knowledge (i.e., procedural, effectiveness, and social knowledge) are essential, as is the consideration of various barriers and motivators for action. The transition towards sustainability will require action and change that is guided by an understanding of the complexities that arise within an interconnected system, as well as the ability to collaborate with people from diverse backgrounds, while keeping an eye to the future. In formulating our approach to educating for sustainability, we incorporate perspectives from three somewhat disparate fields: (i) behavioral change research, (ii) sustainability scholarship, and (iii) educational pedagogy. While drawing upon diverse knowledge domains, our primary purpose is to integrate behavior change research and sustainability competencies in developing effective educational approaches for transformative actions.

The conceptual bases for codifying Estonia׳s IP law and the main legislative changes: From the comparative approach to embedding drafted law into the socio-economic context
No full textAbstractThe aim of this article is to explore the conceptual bases and methodological issues involved in the codification process of Estonia׳s intellectual property law and outline the main results. The conceptual bases of this codification consist of evolutionary development, a comparative-law approach, stakeholder involvement and regulatory impact assessment. The reform draws on the existing regulatory framework (existing IP law), developed further by the identification and use of the best regulatory practices of other countries and model laws. Stakeholder involvement and regulatory impact assessment are used to improve the draft law and make it compatible with Estonian socio-economic conditions.This article summarises the results of the extensive work from 2012 to 2014 that resulted in the draft Copyright and Related Rights Act, the draft Industrial Property Code and the draft Act Implementing the Copyright and Related Rights Act and the Industrial Property Code with the relevant annexes.The analysis focuses on the Estonian codification project as a case study. The author relies on traditional research methods from social science and draws on comparative and dogmatic analysis conducted during the codification, using empirical socio-economic data acquired through stakeholder involvement and impact assessment.The article also reflects the author׳s personal experience, insights and intimate knowledge of the codification process gained through management and coordination of the project and in acting as a head of the expert group on the codification of IP law under the auspices of the Ministry of Justice of Estonia.The Estonian example could serve as a comparative model for countries aiming to modernise their IP laws within the EU acquis and international legal framework
