The region São Francisco Valley (Petrolina-PE / Juazeiro-BA), stands out as one of the largest fruit poles in Brazil, mainly of mango and grape production, however the diversification of farming in the region has become essential to meet this demand research on species of humid tropical climate, subtropical and temperate, with economic potential they see being studied in irrigated areas of the Brazilian semiari...
Plants are subject to external and internal variables that may affect the plant physiological ecology. The precipitation, temperature, photoperiod, intensity of solar radiation, hormones and others operate in the processes of growth and development of plants. Understanding the factors that affect the biology of the species is essential for plantations or forest management driving. The objective of this research...
The pitombeira [Talisia esculenta (Cambess.) Radlk. (Sapindaceae), a native species of the Amazon region and with a large occurrence in the Caatinga, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest, is explored in the restoration of riparian forests, civil construction, folk medicine and agriculture. Despite its economic and ecological potential, there is no information about its reproductive biology and seed production technology...
The cultivation of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) may be an economical alternative for the Brazilian northeast, however, some areas of this region have excess salts in the water. The application of growth regulators may mitigate the deleterious effects of saline stress. The objective of this work was to evaluate the action of biostimulant on the basil culture submitted to saline stress. The experiment was conducte...
Biblical texts have riches to be enjoyed by readers of different sciences and faiths. While theology contributes with experience and knowledge from the perspective of those who have faith, the Sciences of Religions provide the basis for a more refined scholarship and an airing of ideas for the theologian to critically build his reflections upon his beliefs. The objective of this research is to foster the dialog...
Depression is a serious, recurring, and disabling mood disorder. It is believed that its etiology is the result of several abnormalities which interact with environmental factors, with stress being the main environment factor with impact on the emergency of the disease. Essential oils have a variety of bioactive compounds, such as phenylpropanoids. These have different pharmacological activities, such as anxiol...
Leaf-cutting ants of the genera Atta and Acromyrmex are recognised as important pests of the Neotropics. Currently, the main control method is the use of chemical insecticides. However, there is a growing concern about the negative effects of the frequent applications of insecticides on non-target organisms, human health and the environment. Entomopathogenic fungi can naturally infect insect hosts via direct pe...
The semi-arid region is a Brazilian region where water resources are limiting to ecological systems, because they are intermittent, present only during rainy periods. Despite being a region with limitations, it presents several urban conglomerates, which leads the aquatic environments to the accumulation of a great load of nutrients, making aquatic ecosystems eutrophized. The objective of this work is to evalua...
Before thepresent situation of loss of natural resources, an impact of human action on the environment, discussions concerning a new development model that prioritizes the equity and the balance between economic growth and sustainability expanded. In order to fomentthis issue, this research was developed, which content isa view on the Indicators of Sustainable Municipal Development in the municipality of Nossa ...
This paper reports the preparation of novel organic-inorganic hybrid materials based on silica gel functionalized with silylating agents (3-aminopropyl) trimethoxysilane (APTS), [3-(2-aminoethylamine)-propyl]-trimethoxysilane (DAPTS) and 3-[2-(2-aminoethylamine) ethylamine] propyltrimethoxysilane (TAPTS) containing complexes ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) of lanthanide trivalent ions (Ln3+: Eu3+, Tb3+, and ...
