    Description: Drought threatens tropical rainforests over seasonal to decadal timescales, but the drivers of tree mortality following drought remain poorly understood. It has been suggested that reduced availability of non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) critically increases mortality risk through insufficient carbon supply to metabolism ('carbon starvation'). However, little is known about how NSC stores are affected by drought, especially over the long term, and whether they are more important than hydraulic processes in determining drought-induced mortality. Using data from the world's longest-running experimental drought study in tropical rainforest (in the Brazilian Amazon), we test whether carbon starvation or deterioration of the water-conducting pathways from soil to leaf trigger tree mortality. Biomass loss from mortality in the experimentally droughted forest increased substantially after 〉10 years of reduced soil moisture availability. The mortality signal was dominated by the death of large trees, which were at a much greater risk of hydraulic deterioration than smaller trees. However, we find no evidence that the droughted trees suffered carbon starvation, as their NSC concentrations were similar to those of non-droughted trees, and growth rates did not decline in either living or dying trees. Our results indicate that hydraulics, rather than carbon starvation, triggers tree death from drought in tropical rainforest.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rowland, L -- da Costa, A C L -- Galbraith, D R -- Oliveira, R S -- Binks, O J -- Oliveira, A A R -- Pullen, A M -- Doughty, C E -- Metcalfe, D B -- Vasconcelos, S S -- Ferreira, L V -- Malhi, Y -- Grace, J -- Mencuccini, M -- Meir, P -- England -- Nature. 2015 Dec 3;528(7580):119-22. doi: 10.1038/nature15539.

    Notes: Abstract  In Brazil, the Araucaria forest and the Atlantic rainforest are two threatened ecosystems, with 10% or less of their original areas presently existing. To assess the mycorrhizal status in these forests, roots of 29 native species, belonging to 19 families, were collected throughout the year from different regions of Santa Catarina, Brazil. Roots were washed, and then cut in a cryo-microtome to seek ectomycorrhizal colonization. Other roots were stained before being examined for vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizas (VAM). Patterns of colonization were identified and photographed. All plants presented evidence of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization. No evidence of ectomycorrhizal colonization was found. Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization patterns varied from single intracellular aseptate hyphae, coils, and/or appressoria, to vesicles and/or arbuscules. Results confirmed that VAM hosts are predominant in South American forests while ectomycorrhizas are extremely rare even among genera known as ectomycorrhizal in other regions of the humid tropics.

    Notes: Abstract Most of the agar production in the world now comes from terete species of Gracilariaceae, a notoriously difficult group with regard to species circumscription. We have studied different populations of such algae from Brazil and from abroad in order to ascertain their identity and relationship. We based our taxonomic concepts on traditional morphological markers and attempted crosses between putatively interspecific and geographically isolated intraspecific populations. Data from the crosses helped in the recognition of genera and species with convergent morphologies and between disjunct populations. Our results show that configuration of male reproductive structures and some features of cystocarp anatomy are reliable taxonomic characters whereas some morphological features, such as gross thallus morphology and branching pattern, are not.

    Notes: Abstract The agaran yield, 3,6-anhydrogalactopyranose (3,6-AG) and sulphate content were compared in four commercial species of Gracilaria grown under parallel conditions in vitro. Gracilaria chilensis Bird, McLachlan et Oliveira from Chile provided the highest agaran yield (59%), followed by G. tenuistipitata Zhang et Xia var. liui Zhang et Xia from China (53%), Gracilaria gracilis (Stackhouse) Steentoft, Irvine et Farnham from Namibia (34%) and from Argentina (26%), and Gracilaria caudata J. Agardh from Brazil (32%). The algae from Chile, China and Namibia gave higher yields after alkali treatment while those from Brazil and Argentina gave higher yields for the native agarans. Lower percentages of 3,6-AG and higher sulphate contents were found in the species from warmer waters (Brazil and China), indicating agarans of lower commercial value. The results indicate that the Chilean Gracilaria had a superior yield of agaran, although G. gracilis from Arg entina presented the highest 3,6-AG content after alkali treatment compared to other species considered for commercial cultivation in Brazil.

    Notes: Abstract Pterocladia capillacea forms dense intertidal belts in southeastern Brazil, on moderately exposed rocky coasts. The studied population extends along a gradient of water exposure, where slightly different morphotypes can be recognized. Specimens were collected monthly from 3 points along the exposure gradient of its distribution (lower, medium and higher exposure), and analyzed for agar, sulfate and 3,6 anhydrogalactose content. Agar varied from 5–32% of dried seaweed with lower yields in the winter, and higher yields in late spring/early summer. Specimens from the surf side of the distribution had a consistently higher agar content throughout the year. Sulfate varied from 1–5%, and 3,6 AG from 27–48% of dried agar, without a clear variation among the sites.

    Notes: Abstract Data are presented on temperature responses, based onin vitro growth performance, of eight species of colloid-producing red algae; these include the five most important commercial species of agarophytes in South America. The temperature optima do not conform strictly to geographic distribution, and intolerance to high temperature is not the factor that controls the spreading of temperate species ofGracilaria to warmer areas. WithinPterocladia capillacea (Gmelin) Bornet et Thuret, populations from two distinct localities had different responses to temperature optima. Data suggest that the disjunct distribution of this species in the American Atlantic is due to its poor performance at temperatures above 26 °C. The fastest maximum growth rate was observed inHypnea cornuta (Lamouroux) J. Agardh (doubling time 2.8 d), and the slowest inP. capillacea from Cabo Frio (doubling time 50.0 d). All the species studied, including the valuable Chilean and Argentinean species ofGracilaria, could tolerate the temperature regimes of the Brazilian waters.

    Description: This study evaluated the existence of genotype x environment interaction for bodyweight in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), GIFT range between three cities indifferent regions in the Paraná state. The data set consisted of 1,132 animals, males and females, born between November 2011 and February 2012. Analyses were performed using Bayesian inference, considering an animal model that included fixed effects of sex, linear and quadratic covariate of fish age (in days), in addition to the effects considered random, and the additive genetic and common environment hatchery (c) and nursery (w) , where the weight was treated as a different trait in each of the regions. The results of heritability were high for univariate models, being 0.71 , 0.72 and 0.67 for the cities of Palotina (PL) , Floriano (FL) and Diamante do Norte (DN) , respectively , the results of heritability for the two-trait analyzes showed similar values. Genetic correlations estimated in vicariate analyzes were weak with values between 0.12 PL-FL,0.06 for PL- DN and 0.23 for FL-DM. The Spearman correlation values were low, indicating change in ranking in the animals selection in different environments understudy. There was heterogeneity of phenotypic variance between the three regions and heterogeneity of residual variance between PL and DN. The direct genetic gain was greater for DN region with the value of 281.35 g of weight gain per generation, followed by FL with 198.24 g per generation and finally PL with 98.73 g per generation. The indirect genetic gains ranged from 7.77 g per generation between DNand PL to 74.66 g per generation between FL and DN. Eight statistical models were used to check what best describes the average daily weight gain (ADG), in order to make the best selection in animals subjected to genetic breeding program of tilapia(Oreochromis niloticus), variety GIFT, and the data set consisted of information from2,615 animals, from the fourth generation of selection (G4) . The analyzes considered the animal model that included fixed effects of sex, linear and quadratic covariate offish age, in days, in addition to additive genetic effects. The models were modified to include or not maternal genetic effect (m) and common hatchery environments (c) and nursery (w) . The results of heritability were considered the average for most models,M2 = 0.24, M4 = 0.23, M5 = 0.28, = 0.30 M6, M7 and M8 = 0.33 = 0.36 and high for models M1 = M3 = 0.83 and 0.79 . The Bayesian deviance information criterion (DIC)was lower for M1 (DIC = -282.59) and higher for M4 (DIC = 1754.57) . The criterion of log marginal density for Bayes factor agreed with the DIC to the lowest value at which M1 = 585.29 and the highest value presented for this criterion was for M5 =1837.37.
    Description: O presente trabalho avaliou a existência da interação genótipo x ambiente, para o peso vivo em tilápias do Nilo (Oreochromis niloticus), variedade GIFT, entre três cidades de diferentes regiões no Estado do Paraná. O conjunto de dados foi composto por 1.132animais, machos e fêmeas, nascidos entre novembro de 2011 e fevereiro de 2012. As análises foram realizadas por meio de Inferência Bayesiana, considerando um modelo animal, que incluiu efeitos fixos de sexo, linear e quadrático da covariável idade do peixe (em dias), além dos efeitos considerados aleatórios, sendo os genéticos aditivos e de ambientes comum de larvicultura e alevinagem, em que o peso vivo foi tratado como uma característica diferente, em cada uma das regiões. Os resultados de herdabilidade foram considerados altos para as análises unicaracterísticas, sendo de 0,71; 0,72 e 0,67para as cidades de Palotina (PL), Floriano (FL) e Diamante do Norte (DN),respectivamente. Os resultados para herdabilidade nas análises bicaracterísticas apresentaram valores similares. As correlações genéticas estimadas nas análises bicaráter foram consideradas baixas, valores de 0,12 entre PL-FL, 0,06 para PL-DN e0,23 para FL-DM. Os valores de correlação de Spearman apresentaram-se baixos,indicando mudança de ranking na seleção dos animais nos diferentes ambientes e método. Verificou-se heterogeneidade de variância fenotípica entre as três regiões h eterogeneidade de variância residual entre Palotina e Diamante do Norte. O ganho genético direto foi maior para a região de DN com valor de 281,35 g de ganho em peso vivo/geração, seguido por FL (198,24 g/geração) e PL (98,73 g/geração). Os ganhos genéticos indiretos variaram de 7,77 g/geração entre DN e PL a 74,66 g/geração entre FL e DN. Foram utilizados oito modelos estatísticos para verificar o que melhor descreve o ganho em peso médio diário (GPD), de forma a realizar a melhor seleção genética nos animais submetidos ao programa de melhoramento genético de tilápias(Oreochromis niloticus), variedade GIFT, sendo que o conjunto de dados era composto por informações de 2.615 animais, proveniente da quarta geração de seleção (G4). As análises realizadas consideraram o modelo animal, que incluiu efeitos fixos de sexo,linear e quadrático da covariável idade do peixe, em dias, além dos efeitos genéticos aditivos. Os modelos foram modificados de forma a incluir ou não efeito genético materno e de ambientes comum de larvicultura e alevinagem. Os resultados de herdabilidade foram considerados médios para a maioria dos modelos, M2=0,24,M4=0,23, M5=0,28, M6=0,30, M7=0,33 e M8=0,36 e altos para os modelos M1=0,83 eM3=0,79.

    Description: The aim of this study was to estimate the (co) variance and genetic parameters for performance traits (weight and average daily weight gain) for two generations of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), GIFT strain belonging to Breeding Program State University of Maringá. We used 3,918 animals, the univariate and bivariate were taken from the animal model using Bayesian inference by the application program MTGSAM (Multiple Trait Gibbs Sampler using in Animal Model). The proposed model includes the effects cages, generation and gender, common hatchery environments (random) and nursery environment (nalev) in addition to additive genetic effects. For analysis, we used the scheme of the long chain of 500,000 cycles, discard sample of 50,000 cycles and sampling intervals of ten cycles. For the purposes of cages, year of birth and sex, it was considered as having flat distribution for the additive genetic and common environment hatchery and nursery, we have assumed the distribution of inverted chi-square for univariate and range reversed to the bivariate analysis. Estimates of heritability coefficient in univariate for weight, weight gain, total length, standard length, height, width and head were 0.15, 0.19, 0.23, 0.19, 0.17, 0 , 15, and 0.17, respectively. The genetic and phenotypic correlations were found in medium to high magnitude ranging from 0.68 to 0.95. The values of Spearman and Pearson correlations for the ratings of the breeding value of morphometric features in the speed of weight gain ranged from 0.58 to 0.98 to 0.63 to 0.99, respectively. The values of genetic gain, the effective population size and inbreeding coefficient for the second generation (G2) were 2.6%, 94 and 0.005, repectively, and the third generation (G3) were 8.1%, 124 and 0.004, repectively.
    Description: O objetivo deste trabalho foi estimar os componentes de (co)variância e parâmetros genéticos para características de desempenho (peso e ganho em peso médio diário), para duas gerações de tilápias do Nilo (Oreochromis niloticus), linhagem GIFT pertencentes ao Programa de Melhoramento Genético da Universidade Estadual de Maringá. Foram utilizados 3.918 animais, as análises unicarácter e bicarácter foram realizadas a partir do Modelo Animal utilizando Inferência Bayesiana por meio da aplicação do programa MTGSAM (Multiple Trait using Gibbs Sampler in Animal Model). O modelo proposto inclui os efeitos tanque-rede, geração e sexo, ambientes comum de larvicultura (random) e ambiente de alevinagem (nalev), além dos efeitos genéticos aditivos. Para as análises, utilizou-se o esquema de cadeia longa com 500.000 ciclos, descarte amostral de 50.000 ciclos e intervalos amostrais de dez ciclos.

As estimativas de coeficiente de herdabilidade em análise unicarácter para peso, ganho em peso, comprimento total, comprimento-padrão, altura, largura e cabeça foram 0,15, 0,19, 0,23, 0,19, 0,17, 0,15 e 0,17, respectivamente. As correlações genéticas e fenotípicas encontradas foram de média a alta magnitude variando de 0,68 a 0,95. Os valores das correlações de Spearman e Pearson para as classificações dos valores genéticos das características morfométricas em relação à velocidade de ganho em peso oscilaram entre 0,58-0,98 a 0,63-0,99, respectivamente. Os valores de ganho genético, tamanho efetivo da população e coeficiente de endogamia para segunda geração (G2) foram de 2,6%, 94 e 0,005, respectivamente, e para a terceira geração (G3) foram de 8,1%, 124 e 0,004, respectivamente.

    Description: Results of groundwater and seawater analyses for radioactive (3H, 222Rn, 223Ra, 224Ra, 226Ra, 228Ra) and stable (2H, 18O) isotopes are presented together with in situ spatial mapping and time-series 222Rn measurements in seawater, direct seepage measurements using manual and automated seepage meters, pore water investigations using different tracers and piezometric techniques, and geoelectric surveys probing the coast. This study represents first time that such a new complex arsenal of radioactive and non-radioactive tracer techniques and geophysical methods have been used for simultaneous submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) investigations. Large fluctuations of SGD fluxes were observed at sites situated only a few meters apart (from 0 cm d-1 to 360 cm d-1; the unit represents cm3/cm2/day), as well as during a few hours (from 0 cm d-1 to 110 cm d-1), strongly depending on the tidal fluctuations. The average SGD flux estimated from continuous 222Rn measurements is 17±10 cm d-1. Integrated coastal SGD flux estimated for the Ubatuba coast using radium isotopes is about 7x103 m3 d-1 per km of the coast. The isotopic composition (δ2H and δ18O) of submarine waters was characterised by significant variability and heavy isotope enrichment, indicating that the contribution of groundwater in submarine waters varied from a small percentage to 20%. However, this contribution with increasing offshore distance became negligible. Automated seepage meters and time-series measurements of 222Rn activity concentration showed a negative correlation between the SGD rates and tidal stage. This is likely caused by sea level changes as tidal effects induce variations of hydraulic gradients. The geoelectric probing and piezometric measurements contributed to better understanding of the spatial distribution of different water masses present along the coast. The radium isotope data showed scattered distributions with offshore distance, which imply that seawater in a complex coast with many small bays and islands was influenced by local currents and groundwater/seawater mixing. This has also been confirmed by a relatively short residence time of 1-2 weeks for water within 25 km offshore, as obtained by short-lived radium isotopes. The irregular distribution of SGD seen at Ubatuba is a characteristic of fractured rock aquifers, fed by coastal groundwater and recirculated seawater with small admixtures of groundwater, which is of potential environmental concern and has implications on the management of freshwater resources in the region.

    Description: Large rivers in tropical regions have strong variation of abiotic factors due to occurrence of flood pulses. Dams and natural events control the intensity and duration of these pulses. The hypothesis tested was that the Ostracoda community is persistent at regular pulses and more variable at extreme flood. Thus, the ostracods were monitored in a lentic environment of the upper Paraná River floodplain during 83 months (seven hydrologic cycles). The alteration of the water level directly influenced the abiotic variables, and these were correlated with the composition and abundance of ostracods (PCoA). The variability of the species composition was observed among several hydrological cycles, and only the extreme flood distinguished from its previous cycle. The absence of significant differences in community variability between succeeding periods indicates its persistence to natural pulses or short durations, probably because this community has developed adaptations that minimize its effects. The long duration and oscillation of the extreme flood influenced the variation of the environmental conditions reflecting the greater variability of the composition of ostracods in this hydrological period.
    Description: Grandes rios em regiões tropicais têm marcante variação dos fatores abióticos devido a ocorrência dos pulsos de inundação. Barramentos e eventos naturais controlam a intensidade e duração desses pulsos. A hipótese testada foi que a comunidade de Ostracoda é persistente a pulsos regulares e mais variável em extrema cheia. Assim, os ostrácodes foram monitorados em um ambiente lêntico da planície de inundação do alto rio Paraná durante 83 meses (sete ciclos hidrológicos). A alteração do nível da água influenciou diretamente as variáveis abióticas e estas foram correlacionadas com a composição e abundância de ostrácodes (PCoA). A variabilidade da composição de espécies foi observada entre diversos períodos dos ciclos hidrológicos, sendo que apenas a extrema cheia diferenciou de seu ciclo antecedente. A ausência de diferenças significativas na variabilidade da comunidade entre períodos que se sucedem denota persistência a pulsos naturais ou de curtas durações, provavelmente porque esta comunidade desenvolveu adaptações que minimizam seus efeitos, permitindo a manutenção das populações. A longa duração e oscilação da cheia extrema atuou na variação das condições ambientais refletindo na maior variabilidade da composição de ostrácodes neste período hidrológico .
