However, the number of meteorological stations is still small, even in states with agricultural aptitude, such as Goiás. Geoprocessing techniques can be used to overcome this problem. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the products of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite to describe the annual and monthly rainfall variability in the Goiás state and the Federal District (Brazil). Interpolations were carried out to increase the spatial resolution by means of ordinary kriging and cluster analysis for spatial and temporal distribution. It was observed that the evaluated territory can be classified into three regions with differentiated water regimes up to 500 mm annually, with seasonality of accumulated precipitation from November to March. Even though the regression evaluation showed limitations for a monthly precipitation above 200 mm, the analysis of the TRMM satellite products demonstrated that this tool allows forecasts of provisional normals with a higher spatial resolution than the Brazilian National Institute of Meteorology (INMET) stations network, with known measurement errors for each evaluation period, allowing the data application in forecast models for agricultural planning involving water management.","PeriodicalId":46867,"journal":{"name":"Pesquisa Agropecuaria Tropical","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67252252","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}

However, there is a limited understanding of the genetic diversity and relationships of this germplasm. This study aimed to determine the diversity and relationship between endemic mango and its wild relatives (Mangifera spp.) from Borneo Island, Indonesia, using leaf morphology and the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region. Fifteen samples of Mangifera, covering 12 species, were used. Morphologically, the endemic Mangifera had a low diversity of only 0.22. Based on the ITS sequence, Mangifera endemic to Borneo had a high level of genetic diversity (0.069). In addition, this sequence had a total variable number of 215 bp, of which 110 bp were singleton sites, 89 informative parsimony and 41 indels. Phylogenetic analysis showed that Mangifera was grouped into three clusters for leaf morphological traits and four clades for the ITS region. In this case, the furthest relationship was pointed out by ‘Hampalam’ (M. laurina) and ‘Tambusui’ (M. macrocarpa), as well as by ‘Rawa-Rawa’ (M. similis) and ‘Samputar’ (M. torquenda). In contrast, the closest relationship was shown by ‘Hambawang Damar’ (M. foetida) and ‘Hambawang Puntara’ (M. foetida), including ‘Samputar’ (M. torquenda) and ‘Pauh’ (M. quadrifida). In particular, the common mango (M. indica) was closely related to ‘Asam Buluh’ and ‘Hampalam’ (M. laurina) and distantly related to ‘Pauh’ (M. quadrifida) and ‘Rawa-Rawa’ (M. similis).","PeriodicalId":46867,"journal":{"name":"Pesquisa Agropecuaria Tropical","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67252102","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}

This study aimed to determine the optimal intervals for harvest and nitrogen fertilization in Urochloa brizantha cv. BRS Piatã and Megathyrsus maximus cv. BRS Quênia, as well as to investigate whether the flexibility of the fertilization time is related to the accumulation of water-soluble carbohydrates (WSC) and nitrogen in the roots. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, using a completely randomized design, with five treatments (nitrogen fertilization after harvest: 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 days) and ten replicates. The nitrogen fertilization time linearly reduced the forage and root mass for the BRS Piatã, but had no effect on the BRS Quênia guinea grass. For the BRS Piatã, the WSC and starch concentrations in the roots showed a quadratic response, decreasing from harvest to day 2 and increasing until the day 8. However, the delayed fertilization led to a linear reduction in the root nitrogen content. The nitrogen fertilization time had a quadratic effect on the WSC concentration for the BRS Quênia roots. For the BRS Piatã, the nitrogen fertilization immediately after harvest improves the forage and root masses, WSC and nitrogen reserves. In contrast, the BRS Quênia exhibited a greater flexibility, concerning the nitrogen fertilization time. The interval between harvest and nitrogen fertilization is primarily depended on root mass, which influences the nitrogen accumulation in the roots.","PeriodicalId":46867,"journal":{"name":"Pesquisa Agropecuaria Tropical","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67252183","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}
