1. Bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of fruit of temperate climate produced in subtropical regions
Abstract Temperate fruit species, originate from regions with cold winters and well-defined climatic seasons. These fruits are also produced in subtropical and tropical regions. The aim of this study was to determine the bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of different fruit cultivars from fruit trees of temperate climate, such as peach, pear, quinc

2. USE OF PUPILLOMETRY IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF STRESS IN PIGLETS TRANSPORTED IN A TROPICAL CLIMATE
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the reactivity of the pupillary area (PA) as a non-invasive method for diagnosing stress in piglets submitted to transport. A total of 10 journeys were monitored and grouped according to the transport distance (15 and 75 km). Were sampled 360 piglets (25±3.8 kg) to measure the PA, body temperature (BT), a

3. Assessment of Total Attenuation and Adaptive Scheme for Quality of Service Enhancement in Tropical Weather for Satellite Networks and 5G Applications in Nigeria
Abstract The dynamic weather condition is a major concern for optimum channel utilization in recent times, especially at higher frequencies with larger bandwidth for 5G applications. Over the years, rain-induced attenuation among the hydrometeors has been linked as the major cause of signal impairment especially at the frequency, f ≥ 10 GHz. However, when

4. Organic Matter Leached from Tropical Soils by Simulated Rain, Hard (NaOH) and Soft (NaNO3) Extractions: A Realistic Study about Risk Assessment in Soils
Alkaline extractions from humic material are used to risk assessment in soils. However, there are questions about the type of extraction most suitable for this evaluation. Thus, this work evaluated different soil extractions in search of realistic environmental conditions (simulated rain). The parameters obtained revealed significant differences between the

5. Implementation of ventilation towers in a greenhouse established in low altitude tropical climate conditions: numerical approach to the behavior of the natural ventilation
ABSTRACT Deficient ventilation rates and airflow patterns in naturally ventilated greenhouses are the main causes for the generation of inadequate and heterogeneous thermal conditions inside this type of structure. In this research, a numerical study was developed using a two-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model validated in a Colombian greenhouse

6. Agronomic performance of seedless table grape genotypes under tropical semiarid conditions
ABSTRACT The São Francisco Valley is the main producing region of table grape in Brazil. The objective of this work was to evaluate the agronomic performance and physicochemical characteristics of 14 seedless table grape genotypes to select those with potential to be used in commercial crops in the São Francisco Valley, Brazil, or as parents in breeding pr

7. Growth, yield, and oil content of Brassica species under Brazilian tropical conditions
ABSTRACT Brassica oilseed species are becoming increasingly popular for industrial uses, with emphasis on biodiesel. It is of importance to evaluate the yield and oil production potential of nontraditional oilseeds for use as feedstock in Brazil. In this study, growth, yield, and oil content and their correlations were determined for eight accessions of B. j

8. Colonization-related functional traits of plants in a 50-hectare plot of secondary tropical forest
ABSTRACT The growth-survival trade-off hypothesis states that functional traits of stem, wood, leaves and fruits govern acquisitive and conservative strategies of plant species that grow/survive differently in forests. We aimed to determine whether heterogeneity during the colonization of a secondary Atlantic Forest fragment causes differences in colonizatio

9. Influence of treatment with water-soluble CCB preservative on the physical-mechanical properties of brazilian tropical timber
This aim of this work is to present an analysis of the influence of impregnation against biological demand, realized with saline solution of CCB (Chromated Copper Borate preservative) by vacuum-pressure process, on physical-mechanical properties of tropical wood species Simarouba sp., Cedrelinga catenaeformis and Erisma uncinatum Warm. In theory, such proces

10. Permanent wilt point from two methods for different combinations of citrus rootstock
RESUMO: Considerando que a água é extremamente importante na produção agrícola, mas com restrita disponibilidade em algumas regiões brasileiras, é que esse trabalho buscou identificar o limite hídrico inferior para os porta-enxertos: tangerina Cleóptra (Citrus reshni hort. Ex Tan), limão Volkameriano (Citrus Volkameriano Pasquale), citrandarin ‘I

11. Domestic processing and storage on the physical-chemical characteristics of acerola juice (Malpighia glabra L.).
RESUMO A acerola é uma fruta tropical que se destaca pelo alto teor de ácido ascórbico e compostos fenólicos. No entanto, atualmente há carência de informações sobre os efeitos do preparo e armazenamento doméstico de sucos de frutas, em especial de acerola. O presente trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar no suco de acerola doméstico, o efeito de dife

12. Field performance of hermaphrodite papaya plants obtained through molecular selection and micropropagation
Abstract Most commercial papaya varieties segregate hermaphrodite and female plants. Growers normally select hermaphrodite plants in the field, due to market preferences. This requires planting multiple plants per site and later thinning of the females, distinguished by flower bud inspection. Micropropagation or the use of molecular markers are two possibili
