Aiming to quantify the uptake and export of nutrients by grain sorghum, experiments were carried out in monocropping and intercropping with ruzigrass (Uroclhoa ruziziensis), with three levels of NPK fertilization (control without fertilization; maintenance fertilization; and maintenance + 30%). The experimental design was randomized blocks, with four replications. Sorghum plants were sampled at 33, 67 and 130 days after sowing, corresponding to the eight-leaf, flowering and physiological maturation development stages. The nutrient accumulation throughout the sorghum cycle and the respective extraction and export rates were calculated. Intercropping with ruzigrass reduces grain yield, but does not influence sorghum nutrient accumulation. Fertilization in soil with current high fertility increases biomass and nutrient accumulation, however, without any impact on grain yield. In off-season sorghum crop, nutrient uptake occurs mostly during the vegetative phase. Each ton of grain produced removes the equivalent of 14.5; 5.0; 3.5; 1.1 and 0.5 kg of N, P2O5, K2O, Mg and S, in addition to 2, 2, 25, 9 and 11 g of B, Cu, Fe, Mn and Zn, respectively. The potential for nutrient removal by grain sorghum cultivation is comparable to the patterns of the off-season maize crop, evidencing the importance of fertilization to replenish the amounts of nutrient exported.","PeriodicalId":34859,"journal":{"name":"Revista Brasileira de Milho e Sorgo","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47049501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MSG1001 hybrid seeds were treated with UCZ (0, 50, and 100 mg.kg-1 of seed) with different incubation times (IT – 1 min and 12 h). In the lab experiment, the treated seeds were displaced in rolls of the previously moistened Germitest paper and incubated for a week in a BOD chamber at 25ºC with a 12-hour photoperiod. In the greenhouse experiments, sowing was carried out in pots with sand, and supplementary irrigation was applied for ten days. In the field experiment, sowing was performed with 0.5 m spacing between rows in densities of 75,000 and 65,000 plants.ha-1. In the BOD and the greenhouse, the design of both experiments was entirely randomized in a double-factor scheme (IT x UCZ). A randomized block design in a triple-factor scheme (IT x UCZ x Population) was used in the field experiment. Seed treatment with UCZ did not promote germination inhibition. The concentration of 100 mg UCZ kg-1 of seed in the 12-hour IT resulted in a more significant accumulation of root mass in seedlings after one week in the BOD. In the greenhouse, plants in the V1 stage presented longer shoot lengths for the treatments that received UCZ. Incubation time influenced root length, and IT = 12 h at a concentration of 50 mg UCZ kg-1 of seed was more efficient than IT = 1 min. Application of 100 mg UCZ kg-1 of seed was more effective for accumulating chlorophylls A and B in IT = 1 min. In the field, seeds treated with UCZ changed plants for female flowering and the number of green leaves below the ear. The population of 75,000 plants.ha-1 was more productive, with UCZ contributing to the hybrid’s yield. Incubation of the seeds with 50 or 100 mg UCZ kg-1 of seed in IT = 1 min contributed to more productivity than IT = 12 h.

The aim was to evaluate the effects of Crotalaria species and inter-row maize spacing on the growth and yield of intercropped maize. A randomized block design in a split-plot scheme was used. Plots comprised maize inter-row spacings of 0.45 and 0.90 m. Subplots consisted of four cropping systems: maize monoculture and three systems of maize intercropped with C. juncea, C. spectabilis, and C. ochroleuca. Plant heights of maize and Crotalaria species throughout the cycle, maize yield, and Crotalaria dry mass were evaluated. The critical plant height of Crotalaria that reduced maize yield ranged from 0.32 to 0.75 m, that is, the more advanced the maize cycle, the greater the critical plant height of Crotalaria. Intercropping with C. juncea was the only one that reduced maize yield (21%) compared to its monoculture, and inter-row maize spacing did not affect the variables. These results were due to the greater plant height (more than 100% higher) and final dry mass (more than 80% higher) of C. juncea compared to the other Crotalaria species, promoting competition with maize for water, light, and nutrients. The choice of Crotalaria species is essential for management in maize intercropped systems, associating the ecosystem benefits of the intercropping without reducing the cereal yield.","PeriodicalId":34859,"journal":{"name":"Revista Brasileira de Milho e Sorgo","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44847580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
