Item Physiological quality of Arabica coffee seeds treated with essential oils(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2026-02-02) Coelho, A. P. F.; Araujo, E. F.; Souza, R. A. de; Freitas, M. R. de; Silva, C. S. da; Pedrosa, A. W.; Lisboa, C. F.; Araujo, R. F.The preservation of Coffea arabica L. seeds is essential to obtain vigorous and healthy seedlings, but there are no registered fungicides for their phytosanitary treatment during the storage phase. Therefore, essential oils appear as promising alternatives due to the presence of bioactive compounds with potential antimicrobial action, in addition to contributing to the sustainability of the production chain. This study aimed to evaluate the physiological quality of Arabica coffee seeds treated with different essential oils during storage. Six essential oils (Rosmarinus officinalis, Cymbopogon citratus, Cymbopogon winterianus, Syzygium aromaticum, Eucalyptus globulus and Melaleuca alternifolia), a synthetic fungicide (TECTO®) and a control were used, subjected to five storage periods (0, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months). The physiological quality of the seeds was verified by means of standard germination and vigor tests: moisture content, germination, accelerated aging, seedling emergence and emergence speed index. There was a significant interaction between treatments and storage time for all variables analyzed. The essential oils of Rosmarinus officinalis and Cymbopogon winterianus preserved seed germination and vigor for up to nine months, a performance similar to that of the synthetic fungicide. Thus, these oils stand out as viable alternatives to the conventional fungicide treatment of Arabica coffee seeds.Item Fruit development and maturation in clones of Coffea canephora implanted in south Amazonas(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2026-02-09) Lima, O. A.; Relvas, R. M. S.; Silva, E. P.; Araujo, O. P.; Souza, M. N.; Silva, I. S.; Pautz, C.; Carneiro, A. S.; Moutinho-Filho, M. D.; Santos, M. F. C.; Souza, M. S.This study aimed to evaluate fruit maturation of Coffea canephora cultivated in the southern region of Amazonas, focusing on the crop's phenological stages, which were introduced for the first time in Humaitá-AM for production trials. The experiment was conducted at the Mangabeiras Experimental Farm, part of the Institute of Education, Agriculture and Environment (IEAA) of the Federal University of Amazonas (UFAM), Humaitá campus. A randomized block design with four blocks and eight replicates per block was used. Each plot consisted of 14 rows, with 4 border plants. Evaluations began the main flowering event on September 3, 2021, and continued until June 2022. The phenological stages assessed were: pinhead, fruit expansion, green bean, light green (verde cana), cherry, and raisin. These stages were analyzed as percentages based on a selected branch. Clones were grouped by maturation time: intermediate (BRS 1216, BRS 2299, BRS 3210, BRS 3213, BRS 3220, Clone 12, RO C160, Clone 09, Clone 15), late (BRS 2314, BRS 2336, BRS 2357), and early (BRS 3137, BRS 3193). The pinhead and fruit expansion stages occurred from September to December, followed by fruit filling from January to April. In May, the light green stage was observed, coinciding with rapid fruit development under average temperatures of 26 °C and precipitation of 130 mm. These environmental conditions favored maturation, allowing fruits to reach the cherry stage by the end of the evaluation period.Item Physiological quality of seeds of arabic coffee cultivars stored for a period of two years(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2024-11-08) Alixandre, R. D.; Lima, P. A. M.; Alixandre, F. T.; Krohling, C. A.; Fornazier, M. J.; Guarçoni, R. C.; Almeida, T. F. R.; Dias, R. S.; Anastácio, A. S.; Alexandre, R. S.; Ferreira, A.; Lopes, J. C.The rapid loss of viability, coupled with the difficulties and limitations in conserving coffee seeds, are some of the challenges that nurseries are currently facing. Thus, the objective of this work was to analyze the physiological quality of stored Arabica coffee seeds from cultivars recommended for planting in Brazilian mountainous regions. Seeds from 10 Arabica coffee cultivars were used: Catucaí-785/15, Catucaí-2SL, Catucaí-24/137, Japan, Arara, Acauã, Catuaí IAC-81, Mundo Novo IAC-379/19, Catuaí IAC-62, and Caturra IAC-479. The seeds were collected in the Arabica coffee seed production field, in the municipality of Marechal Floriano-ES. They were subsequently processed and dried in the shade, at room temperature, until reaching a humidity of 35 ± 1%, analyzed and stored in a natural laboratory environment (25 ± 2 °C), for 24 months. The following were analyzed: seed water content, germination, germination speed index, electrical conductivity and potassium leaching. The experimental design used was completely randomized, with ten cultivars, two storage times, with four replications of 25 seeds. Storing arabica coffee seeds for 24 months results in a drop in the germination percentage. Stored seeds of the Catucai 24/137 and Arara cultivars showed germination percentages similar to those of newly harvested seeds. Seeds of the Catuai IAC-62 cultivar maintain vigor during storage. The stored seeds of the Caturra IAC-476 and Japi cultivars showed a reduction in physiological quality. Electrical conductivity and potassium leaching tests are efficient in identifying seeds in an advanced state of deterioration. Seeds of Arabica coffee cultivars stored for 24 months, under the conditions of the present study, produce abnormal seedlings.Item Commercial characteristics of coffee seedlings produced with different sources of phosphorus and plant growth-promoting bacteria(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2023-04-17) Ferraro, A. C.; França, A. C.; Machado, C. M. M.; Aguiar, F. R.; Oliveira, L. L.; Braga Neto, A. M; Oliveira, R. G.Considered the economic engine of many countries, the coffee culture represents an important component of the agricultural chain in Brazil. The growing values of commercialization, planting areas, and crop productivity require the acquisition of quality seedlings, which must receive adequate nutritional support through efficient fertilizers. Slow and controlled-release fertilizers, such as organominerals, gain prominence when it comes to increasing efficiency in the use of phosphorus, as well as plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) with phosphate solubilizing characteristics. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different sources of mineral and organomineral fertilizers, inoculated and non-inoculated with PGPB on the quality parameters of coffee seedlings. In general, the P sources used in the experiment positively interfered with the development of coffee seedlings. This proves that there is a need for nutritional supplementation for the good development of the seedlings. Among the sources used, the organomineral in granulated form showed better performance in coffee seedlings' growth and physiological parameters, proving to be a viable alternative to commonly used fertilizers. The addition of PGPB showed a significant advantage for seedling quality variables.Item 16S metabarcoding analysis reveals the influence of organic and conventional farming practices on bacterial communities from the rhizospheric of Coffea arabica L.(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2023-11-03) Andrade, P. H. M.; Machado, P. C.; Paula, A. F.; Paganin, A. C. L.; Rezende, G. S.; Matheucci Jr., E.; Carvalho, L. M.; Freire, C. C. M.; Cunha, A. F.; Lacava, P. T.Coffea sp. is cultivated in many tropical countries. Brazil has always adopted intensive agricultural practices, but organic coffee farming is an alternative system based on the non-use of agrochemicals and the rational management of soils. Metabarcoding 16S analysis using next-generation sequencing has been developed to identify and compare the diversity of the Coffea arabica L. rhizospheric bacterial community in two farming areas in São Paulo, Brazil. Dourado uses conventional farming, while Ribeirão Corrente uses organic. We found broad taxonomic composition, with sequences from 24 phyla, 55 classes, 61 orders, 146 families, and 337genus. The three most abundant phyla were Proteobacteria (38.27%), Actinobacteria (15.56%), and Acidobacteria (16.10%). In organic farming, the top 3 were the family Sphingomonadaceae, order Rhizobiales, genus Nocardioides, and Gp6. The genus Gp2 and the phylum Candidatus Saccharibacteria were the most abundant OTUs exclusively present in conventional farming. In the organic farming practice, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Acidobacteria were also present among the exclusive OTUs; we also found OTUs belonging to Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, and Verrucomicrobia. Our study indicates a positive effect of organic farming on microbial communities. Fertilization may directly affect soil microbiota, suggesting that a large and active microbial community low in functional diversity might not adapt to new climatic conditions. A diverse community could provide better resilience to environmental changes, improving the productivity of this important crop.Item A análise de metabarcode 16S revela a influência das práticas agrícolas orgânicas e convencionais nas comunidades bacterianas da rizosfera de Coffea arabica L.(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2023-09-18) Andrade, P. H. M.; Machado, P. C.; Paula, A. F.; Paganin, A. C. L.; Rezende, G. S.; Matheucci Jr., E.; Carvalho, L. M.; Freire, C. C. M.; Cunha, A. F.; Lacava, P. T.Coffea sp. é cultivada em muitos países tropicais. O Brasil sempre adotou práticas agrícolas intensivas, mas a cafeicultura orgânica é um sistema alternativo baseado na não utilização de agrotóxicos e no manejo racional dos solos. A análise Metabarcode 16S utilizando o sequenciamento de última geração foi desenvolvida para identificar e comparar a diversidade da comunidade bacteriana rizosférica de Coffea arabica L. em duas áreas de cultivo em São Paulo, Brasil. Dourado usa agricultura convencional, enquanto Ribeirão Corrente usa agricultura orgânica. Encontramos ampla composição taxonômica, com sequências de 24 filos, 55 classes, 61 ordens, 146 famílias e 337 gêneros. Os três filos mais abundantes foram Proteobacteria (38,27%), Actinobacteria (15,56%) e Acidobacteria (16,10%). Na agricultura orgânica, os 3 primeiros foram a família Sphingomonadaceae, ordem Rhizobiales, gênero Nocardioides e Gp6. O gênero Gp2 e o filo Candidatus Saccaribacteria foram as OTUs mais abundantes exclusivamente presentes na agricultura convencional. Na prática da agricultura orgânica, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria e Acidobacteria também estiveram presentes entre as OTUs exclusivas; também encontramos OTUs pertencentes a Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes e Verrucomicrobia. Nosso estudo indica um efeito positivo da agricultura orgânica nas comunidades microbianas. A fertilização pode afetar diretamente a microbiota do solo, sugerindo que uma grande e ativa comunidade microbiana com baixa diversidade funcional pode não se adaptar às novas condições climáticas. Uma comunidade microbiana diversificada poderia proporcionar maior resiliência às mudanças ambientais, melhorando a produtividade desta importante cultura agrícola.Item Potential of coffee straw biochal as a substrate conditioner in seed lettuce and sorghum germination and vigorit(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2023) Alixandre, R. D.; Lima, P. A. M.; Almeida, T. F. R.; Oliveira, J. S.; Pereira, M. B.; Alixandre, F. T.; Jacomino, G. R. L.; Dias, R. S.; Alexandre, R. S.; Ferreira, A.; Passos, R. R.; Lopes, J. C.The use of residues from coffee production to obtain biochar is a sustainable approach, which aims to minimize the environmental impact of these materials. In this study, the effect of adding coffee straw biochar on the physiological quality of lettuce and sorghum seeds was investigated. Thus, the objective of this work was to study the effect of adding different concentrations of coffee biochar in the substrate composition on the physiological quality of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) seeds. The experimental design used was completely randomized, with five concentrations of biochar (0; 7.5; 15; 30 and 60%), conducted with four replications of 25 seeds. The use of biochar in the concentrations studied does not provide an increase in the average germination percentage and vigor of lettuce and sorghum seeds. The increase in the concentration of biochar caused less seed vigor, suggesting a toxic effect. For seed germination, there was no significant difference between lettuce and sorghum species, regardless of treatment. For the germination speed index, sorghum seeds have higher means, except for the treatment with the addition of 15% coffee straw biochar. Lettuce seeds have higher shoot length averages, except for treatment with 100% commercial substrate. The sorghum seeds have higher mean root length and dry mass than lettuce, regardless of the treatmentItem Características comerciais de mudas de café produzidas com diferentes fontes de fósforo e bactérias promotoras de crescimento de plantas(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2023-03-30) Ferraro, A.

R.; Azevedo, L. C. B.; Paula, A. M.; Armas, R. D.; Baretta, D.; Cardoso, E. J. B. N.Brazil is the biggest coffee producer in the world and different plantation management systems have been applied to improve sustainability and soil quality. Little is known about the environmental effects of these different management systems, therefore, the goal of this study was to use soil biological parameters as indicators of changes. Soils from plantations in Southeastern Brazil with conventional (CC), organic (OC) and integrated management systems containing intercropping of Brachiaria decumbens (IB) or Arachis pintoi (IA) were sampled. Total organic carbon (TOC), microbial biomass carbon (MBC) and nitrogen (MBN), microbial activity (C-CO2), metabolic quotient (qCO2), the enzymes dehydrogenase, urease, acid phosphatase and arylsulphatase, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) colonization and number of spores and soil fauna were evaluated. The greatest difference between the management systems was seen in soil organic matter content. The largest quantity of TOC was found in the OC, and the smallest was found in IA. TOC content influenced soil biological parameters. The use of all combined attributes was necessary to distinguish the four systems. Each management presented distinct faunal structure, and the data obtained with the trap method was more reliable than the TSBF (Tropical Soils) method. A canonic correlation analysis showed that Isopoda was correlated with TOC and the most abundant order with OC. Isoptera was the most abundant faunal order in IA and correlated with MBC. Overall, OC had higher values for most of the biological measurements and higher populations of Oligochaeta and Isopoda, corroborating with the concept that the OC is a more sustainable system.Item The coffee berry borer: the centenary of a biological invasion in Brazil(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2014) Infante, F.; Pérez, J.; Vega, F.
