Avaliou-se a ocorrência de fungos em sementes de feijão empregadas no plantio, no Estado de Sergipe. Analisaram-se três genótipos (IPA 06, Badejo e Carioca Rajado) obtidos junto aos produtores do município de Simão Dias, SE e se utilizou o método do papel de filtro incubado sete dias, com uma amostra de 25 sementes com oito repetições, totalizando 200 sementes por cultivar. Observou-se, dentre os genótipos testados, que a maior incidência foi de Fusarium solani f. sp. solani (0,5 a 12,5%) e Rhizoctonia solani (1,0 a 39,5% AB S TR ACTThe occurrence of fungi in bean seeds from Sergipe state was evaluated. Three cultivars (IPA06, Badejo and Carioca Rajado) obtained from bean growers in the municipality of Simão Dias -SE were analyzed and tested using the blotter method, incubated for seven days, with a sample of 25 seeds with 8 replications, with a total of 200 seeds per cultivar. A high incidence of Fusarium solani f. sp. solani (0.5 a 12.5%) and Rhizoctonia solani (1.0 a 39.5%) in all cultivars was observed. Others pathogens of bean seeds like Cladosporium cladosporoides, Pythium sp., Sclerotium rolfsii e Phoma exigua var exigua e Sclerotium rolfsii were also identified, but with low indices. The presence of Penicillium sp. (0.5 a 10.0%) was observed in all cultivars and Aspergillus (14.5 a 97.5%) only in cultivars Badejo and Carioca Rajado

-The objective of this work was to evaluate the feasibility of vegetative propagation through cutting technique of seven tree species with strong occurrence in the riparian forest of the Lower São Francisco River in Sergipe State, under different concentrations of indolbutiric acid at 0, 2500, and 5000 mg.L -1 , for potentialization of its use in soil bioengineering technique. It was used a complete random block design with three replicates, and a total of twenty-one treatments. The evaluation period was 120 days for each species, and the data collection was made in intervals of fifteen days, in a total of eight evaluations for each species. The evaluated parameters were: Survival Rate, callus formation, and Root Dry matter Weight. Among the studied species, Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi presented the best results related to cutting technique mainly under the indolbutiric acid concentration of 2500 mg.L -1 .
