$application of organomineral and mineral nitrogenate fertilizer in maize crop, in coverage, on soils of different textures

The use of organomineral can improve the efficiency of nutrients mainly of nitrogen and, therefore, reduce the costs with fertilizer application. The application of organominerals in addition to providing nutrition improves soil quality. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of organomineral nitrogen fertilizer compared to mineral fertilizer on different soil textures in corn. Two trials were conducted in the city of Uberlândia-MG: one located near the BR 452 highway, km 141, at coordinate 18°55'28’’ S 48°09’36’’ W, clay soil.

Perception of learning in programming lectures based on mental models

The understanding of the human mind and its ability to learn are objects of research in Cognitive Science. The way a person learns is unique, the result of her previous experiences and the development of her mental model. The understanding of how the students produce their mental models can favor the learning of several disciplines, as evidenced in several papers. In this context, this work investigates the combination of mental models used by students within the lecture of Programming in technical education classes.

Pour atteindre cet objectif, il a été procédé à l’inventaire des espèces fourragères présentes dans les différents agrosystèmes forestiers préalablement identifiés sur la base de fiche d’inventaire avec l’aide des chefs d’exploitation.

Atividade farmacológica do chá verde e suas possíveis aplicações: uma revisão bibliográfica

O chá verde é uma das bebidas mais amplamente consumidas no mundo, devido suas propriedades benéficas a saúde. Surgiu por acidente em 2375 a.C. e chegou ao Brasil por meio de Dom João VI. É obtido através da Camelia sinensis, a mesma do chá preto e o chá Oolong. Possui ações antivirais, anti-inflamatórias, anticancerígenas entre outras; sendo a mais explorada o epigalato catequina galato (EGCG) que se encontra em grandes quantidades no chá preparado. A catequina é um fitonutriente da família dos polifenóis e tem uma forte ação antioxidante.

Detection of brucella spp. in blood samples of water buffalo (bubalus bubalis) from marajó island, Amazon, Brazil

Brucellosis is a global zoonotic infectious disease with great public health and economical importance, which affects the buffalo herds worldwide. Diagnostic methods for brucellosis usually depend on serological tests and direct culture, which may lack sensitivity. Thus, we aim to detect Brucella spp. using the conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method in blood samples water buffaloes from five municipalities on Marajó Island, Eastern Amazon. A total of 97 male buffalos were sampled during slaughter and blood submitted to PCR.

Unraveling the scenario of enterprise architecture in the public sector through a systematic mapping study

The research carried out in this workhas identified the current enterprise architecture scenario in public organizations. How these organizations define it, what toolsare used, its advantages, and difficulties of use. Which countries are using it and in which sectors of these organizations it is being used. This information contributes to a vision of the approach supporting future directions for its adoption.

Estimation of microbial protein synthesis from derivatives of purine in cattle and buffaloes that were fed with increased levels of concentrate diets

This work aims to estimate the synthesis of microbial protein and urinary creatinine excretion in four bovine and four bubaline distributed in two 4 × 4 Latin squares. The treatments consisted of different levels of concentrate (0.0, 24.0, 48.0, and 72.0%) composed of grinded (SIM) corn, soybean meal, mineral salt, and Tifton-grass hay. Each period lasted 21 days; 14 days of adaptation and seven days to collect samples.

Genetic divergence of sweet sorghum genotypes based on morphoagronomic characters by multivariate techniques

The sweet sorghum apart from being used as food, feed and fiber, is also an excellent source for production of alcohol biofuel due to its high content of soluble sugars in the plant stalk sap), little has been researched about genetic diversity. The objective of this research was to evaluate the genetic divergence of sweet sorghum genotypes based on morphoagronomics characteristics.
