  Novo fertilizante à base de biocarvão de lodo de esgoto enriquecido com potássio: desenvolvimento, caracterização e avaliação agronômica, Descrição: Pesquisas recentes realizadas no DF mostraram que o biocarvão de LE (BLE) é capaz de substituir fertilizantes minerais solúveis na produção de milho. No entanto, como limitação, o BLE apresenta baixos teores de potássio (K), exigindo a aplicação de doses elevadas de biocarvão para o adequado suprimento desse nutriente. Para contornar essa limitação, o enriquecimento do BLE com fontes de K, em processo de pós-pirólise, é uma alternativa que precisa ser melhor estudada. Diante desse cenário, esta proposta tem por objetivo produzir, caracterizar e avaliar o desempenho de fertilizante à base de BLE enriquecido com fontes minerais de K. Além do enriquecimento com duas fontes distintas de K (KCl e K2SO4), serão avaliados três processos de produção do fertilizante: peletização, granulação e mistura física de pós. A presente proposta é composta por três estudos. O primeiro estudo abrange a produção e a caracterização química, física, morfológica e mineralógica dos fertilizantes enriquecidos. No segundo estudo, os fertilizantes obtidos serão avaliados quanto à dinâmica de liberação de K em diferentes tipos de solo. Por fim, com as informações obtidas nos dois primeiros estudos, será avaliado o desempenho agronômico dos fertilizantes enriquecidos. , Situação: Em andamento; Natureza: Pesquisa. , Integrantes: Andre Freire Cruz - Integrante / Ailton T do Vale - Integrante / Juscimar da Silva - Integrante / Jhon Kenedy Moura Chagas - Integrante / Joisman Fachini - Integrante / Priscila Ferreira Reis - Integrante / Alyson Silva de Araujo - Integrante / Cícero Célio de Figueiredo - Coordenador., Financiador(es): Fundação de Apoio à Pesquisa do Distrito Federal - Auxílio financeiro.

  Evaluation of natural microflora in fruit peels by metagenoma, Descrição: Psidium guajava (guava), Mangifera indica (mango), Passiflora edulis (passion fruits), Carica papaya (papaya) and Musa acuminata (banana) are important fruits produced in Brazil. A portion of their losses during the post-harvesting are linked to diseases such as anthracnose (Colletotrichum gloesporioides and Colletotrichum spp.). The evaluation of natural microbial community in fruit peels could assist to search for methods for these diseases control, besides those already reported, hydrothermy, phosphite, calcium chloride and acetyl salicylic acid (ASA). Thus the molecular biology, specially the pyrosequencing, would propitiate more access to informations related to post-harvest diseases concerning on primary pathogens that facilitate the infections of the main causal agents. These techniques would act directly on the pathogen, induce the plant resistance and/or act on the primary pathogens. Consequently it could improve the fruit quality, increase the storage period. Therefore this research aims to compare fruit originated from cultivated and non-cultivated orchards and study the diversity of natural microflora (fungi and bacteria) in those fruits (pyrosequencing). , Situação: Concluído; Natureza: Pesquisa. , Alunos envolvidos: Graduação: (2) / Doutorado: (1) . , Integrantes: Andre Freire Cruz - Coordenador / Carlos Hidemi Uesugi - Integrante / BLUM, LUIZ EDUARDO BASSAY - Integrante / Annette Reinecke - Integrante., Financiador(es): Alexander von Humboldt Foudation - Cooperação / Kyoto Prectural University - Cooperação.

  Aplicação de 1-MCP e sua combinação com hidrotermia, fosfito, cloreto de cálcio e ácido acetil salicílico para controle da antracnose pós-colheita em goiaba de cultivo orgãnico e convencional, Descrição: A principal meta de projeto é a redução do uso de fungicidas tradicionais para controle de doenças pós-colheita da goiabeira. Para tal propõem-se tratamentos alternativos como através de hidrotermia e de compostos químicos menos agressivos ao ambiente e que possam enquadra-se dentro do sistema orgânico de produção de goiaba. Tais técnicas poderiam atuar diretamente sobre o patógeno, induzir resistência no produto vegetal, melhorar as qualidades físico-químicas, aumentar o período de armazenamento e reduzir a antracnose pós-colheita da goiaba em frutos oriundos de produção convencional e em frutos oriundos de produção orgânica. Tais métodos propostos de controle a seriam: 1-MCP (1-metilciclopropeno) e a combinação deste com os métodos hidrotérmico, imersão em fosfitos (Ca, K), cloreto de cálcio e ácido acetil salicílico.. , Situação: Concluído; Natureza: Pesquisa. , Alunos envolvidos: Graduação: (3) / Doutorado: (1) . , Integrantes: Andre Freire Cruz - Integrante / Luiz Eduardo Bassay Blum - Coordenador., Financiador(es): Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico - Bolsa.

  Understanding the soil micro-biological processes in fruit orchards under sod culture, Descrição: This project aimed to find out the soil microoganisms which are under sod culture system, such as arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and their functions. Within these mycorrhizal fungi, their partner bacteria were also investigated in order to compose the functioning of the whole ecosystem. Several bacteria associated to mycorrhizal fungi were isolated and identified by DNA techniques, and their function on P solubilization, biocontrol of soil-borne plant diseases and nitrogen fixation were evaluated. It was concluded that the sod culture system with grass and the mycorrhizal fungi can contribute for sustainable fruit growing through their active compounds and their associated microorganisms (mycorrhiza and bacteria).. , Situação: Concluído; Natureza: Pesquisa. , Alunos envolvidos: Graduação: (2) / Mestrado acadêmico: (1) / Doutorado: (1) . , Integrantes: Andre Freire Cruz - Coordenador., Financiador(es): Grant-Aids for Scientific Research - Auxílio financeiro.
