          Abstract

          ABSTRACT The shoot maturation phase is important for growing mango tree because it precedes the floral induction, when plants are under stress caused by high temperatures and low water availability, that could be reduced by using plant biostimulant. Thus, the current study aimed to use a plant biostimulant containing yeast extract and amino acids to alleviate abiotic stress in mango plants, cv. Tommy Atkins, grown in semiarid environment. The experimental design consisted of randomized blocks with five treatments, five repetitions and five plants per plot. Treatments consisted of: T1) two foliar sprays with [biostimulant + KCl] + two foliar sprays with K2SO4; T2) No biostimulant and four foliar sprays with K2SO4; T3) three individual foliar sprays with biostimulant and one foliar spray with K2SO4; T4) two foliar sprays with biostimulant and two foliar sprays with K2SO4; and T5) two foliar sprays with [biostimulant + K2SO4] + one foliar spray with K2SO4. The variables evaluated were: i) leaf concentrations of soluble carbohydrates, starch, amino acids and proline; and ii) enzymatic activity of catalase and ascorbate peroxidase. The foliar spray with biostimulant during the branch maturation phase of mango trees grown in tropical semiarid environment alleviated plant abiotic stress. Three foliar biostimulant sprays and one K2SO4spray are recommended to alleviate mango plant abiotic stress in semiarid environment.

          RESUMO A fase de maturação de ramos é importante no cultivo de mangueira porque precede à indução floral, quando as plantas estão sob estresse causado por elevadas temperaturas e baixa disponibilidade hídrica, que poderia ser amenizado pelo uso de bioestimulante. Assim, o presente estudo teve como objetivo utilizar um bioestimulante de plantas contendo extrato de levedura e aminoácidos na atenuação do estresse abiótico em plantas de manga, cv. Tommy Atkins, em ambiente semiárido. O delineamento experimental foi em blocos ao acaso, com cinco tratamentos, cinco repetições e cinco plantas por parcela. Os tratamentos consistiram de: T1) duas pulverizações foliares com [bioestimulante + KCl] + duas pulverizações foliares com K2SO4; T2) sem bioestimulante e quatro pulverizações foliares com K2SO4; T3) três pulverizações foliares individuais com bioestimulante e uma pulverização foliar com K2SO4; T4) duas pulverizações foliares com bioestimulante e duas pulverizações foliares com K2SO4; e T5) duas pulverizações foliares com [bioestimulante + K2SO4] + uma pulverização foliar com K2SO4. As variáveis avaliadas foram carboidratos solúveis, amido, concentração de aminoácidos e prolina, e atividade enzimática da ascobarto peroxidase e catalase. A pulverização foliar com bioestimulante durante a fase de maturação da parte aérea das mangueiras cultivadas no semiárido tropical aliviou o stress abiótico das plantas. Três pulverizações foliares de bioestimulante e uma pulverização foliar de K2SO4 são recomendadas para mitigar os efeitos do estresse abiótico em plantas de mangas no semiárido.

              Genes and salt tolerance: bringing them together.

              Rana Munns (2005)
              Salinity tolerance comes from genes that limit the rate of salt uptake from the soil and the transport of salt throughout the plant, adjust the ionic and osmotic balance of cells in roots and shoots, and regulate leaf development and the onset of senescence. This review lists some candidate genes for salinity tolerance, and draws together hypotheses about the functions of these genes and the specific tissues in which they might operate. Little has been revealed by gene expression studies so far, perhaps because the studies are not tissue-specific, and because the treatments are often traumatic and unnatural. Suggestions are made to increase the value of molecular studies in identifying genes that are important for salinity tolerance.
