“…Blank et al (2012) cultivaram diferentes genótipos de Ocimum em solo em dois períodos de 180 dias e obtiveram altura de plantas variando de 0,46 a 0,80 m. Silva (2012), em experimento com manjericão de mesma matriz genética que a do presente experimento porém cultivado com substrato em vasos de 5 L, registrou altura de planta de manjericão de até 0,50 m mas aos 60 DAT. Esses últimos dados, obtidos para o mesmo genótipo, podem demonstrar maior precocidade do manjericão na hidroponia em relação ao seu porte.…”

“…A cultura do manjericão tem múltiplos usos, servindo para fins culinários, medicinais, ornamentais e para a extração de óleo essencial, sendo valorizada nas indústrias alimentícias, para aromatização de alimentos e bebidas, de perfumaria e de fármacos, apresentando, ainda, capacidade inseticida, acaricida, bactericida, biorremediadora em solos afetados por pesticidas, além de atuar com grande potencial de prevenir carcinogênese na atividade antioxidante, no tratamento contra acnes e como fonte de fibra na alimentação, através das sementes (Mathews et al, 1993;Umerie et al, 1998;Bertolucci et al, 2008;Costa et al, 2009;Matiz et al, 2011;Ramírez-Sandoval et al, 2011;Thirugnanasampandan & Jayakumar, 2011;Santos et al, 2012).…”

R E S U M ONo semiárido brasileiro a falta de água de boa qualidade tem justificado o desenvolvimento de pesquisas científicas no aproveitamento de águas salobras. No presente trabalho avaliaram-se os efeitos de águas salobras em relação ao crescimento e à produção de plantas de manjericão em hidroponia, de outubro a novembro de 2012. Os tratamentos consistiram de quatro níveis de salinidade da água (1,45; 3,80; 6,08 ), respectivamente; não ocorreu diferença entre águas isosmóticas de NaCl e rejeito de dessalinização em referência à produção de MFPA. A altura de planta e a taxa de crescimento não indicaram a influência da salinidade no manjericão. As águas salobras não produziram sintomas depreciativos nas plantas.Growth and production of basil in NFT hydroponic system under salinity A B S T R A C TThe scarcity of good quality water in the Brazilian semiarid region has justified the growth of scientific researches on the use of brackish water. In the present study the effects of brackish water on growth and production of basil plants were evaluated in hydroponic system during October-November 2012. The treatments consisted of four levels of salinity (1.45, 3.80; 6.08 and 8.48 dS m ) of a municipality in the semiarid region. Thirty six plots were randomized into six blocks. Data were analysed by analysis of variance and regression. There was a linear reduction in the production of fresh and dry matter of shoots (FMS and DMS) with increase in salinity, corresponding to respectively, 7.86 and 6.76% with per unit increase in electrical conductivity (dS m -1 ); there was no difference between NaCl and isosmotic water of desalination reject in reference to the production of FMS. The plant height and growth rate did not indicate the influence of salinity on basil. The brackish waters produced no damage symptoms in plants. Palavras-chave: IntroduçãoÉ crescente o número de pesquisas que tratam da viabilidade técnica da hidroponia como sistema de produção condizente com o uso de águas salobras (Paulus et al., 2010;Santos et al., 2010;Alves et al., 2011; Dantas, 2012;Maciel et al., 2012). Como discutido por , o aproveitamento de águas salobras é buscado como forma de mitigar o problema da escassez de água de boa qualidade para irrigação, situação característica da região semiárida do Brasil, na qual a falta de água superficial pode ser parcialmente superada pela exploração de águas subterrâneas, que apresentam, por razões hidrogeológicas, elevados teores de sais. Assim, estudos relacionados ao aproveitamento dessas águas como insumo para hidroponia podem resultar em grande impacto social.A maioria dos estudos conduzidos em hidroponia com águas salobras no Brasil tem focado em hortaliças folhosas como rúcula, agrião e sobretudo alface, o que é compreensível já que no país essas culturas são majoritárias no cultivo hidropônico (Paulus et al., 2010;Santos et al., 2010;Alves et al., 2011). Por outro lado, outras culturas são estratégicas para a diversificação do cultivo hidropônico como manjericão, hortelã, espinafre, entre...

“…The effects of the mean squares for the GCA were higher than the SCA effects for all traits, indicating that additive gene effects are controlling the traits (Blank et al, 2012). When additive gene action is predominant, selection during the early generations will be successful.…”

“…Mean performance, estimates of general and specific combining ability and association between the different methods of analysis High GCA estimates indicate a high-frequency flow of genes from parents to combinations and the presence of predominantly additive genes (Blank et al, 2012). Therefore, the choice of parents should be based in genotypes with a high GCA, which have greater chances of success to get superior crosses.…”

Diallel crosses enable plant breeders taking decisions concerning the parental choice for developing new varieties. Recently, a large number of methodological models have been reported. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between different methods of diallel analysis and their associations with grain yield performance in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) segregating populations. In this study, four methods of diallel analysis were used to estimate the general (GCA) and specific (SCA) combining abilities: (a) Griffing, (b) Multivariate analyses of diallel crosses, (c) Restricted Maximum Likelihood / Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (REML/BLUP) and d) Genotypes and Genotypes x Environments biplot (GGE biplot). Six wheat cultivars were hybridized in a partial diallel scheme and later evaluated in the along with 15 F 2 segregating populations. Griffing and REML/BLUP analysis produced equivalent results for GCA and SCA and are meaningful for identifying superior inbred lines. Multivariate diallel analysis suggested the best crosses for simultaneous improvement of traits. GGE biplot method is an effective method for visual comparisons of GCA and SCA effects. Conventional and innovative methods of diallel analysis are useful, complementary and should be applied in the selection of parents and superior crosses.

“…Liver dysfunction is commonly seen in diabetic patients, especially those who have poorly controlled blood glucose (1). Diabetes mellitus includes a syndrome that disrupts metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins through increased blood glucose and increases the risk of vascular diseases (2,3). Increased oxidative stress and changes in the level of antioxidants significantly contribute to the pathogenesis ofdiabetes mellitus (4)(5)(6).…”

Background and Objective: According to Iranian, Asian, Indian, and Chinese traditional medicine, basil is used in the treatment of different diseases. In this study, the effect of basil on lowering the blood glucose was examined in healthy and diabetic rats.Methods: Sixty Wistar rats were divided into a control group(n=10), a basil receiving group (n=20) and a diabetic group (n=30)(60 mg/kg Streptozotocin-Intraperitoneal injection) and the rats in each group received basil orally in pairs. Forty-eight hours after injection of streptozotocin, 2 and 4 mg/kg doses of basil were prescribed orally for the diabetic group daily for 45 days. in end of study for record serum testosterone ,5 cc blood was sampled from each rat.Results: There was a significant correlation between the oral administration of 2 and 4 mg/kg doses of basil and reduced blood glucose level and testosterone changes in the diabetic groups (P<0.05). Twenty-four hours after the first administration, basil caused a significant decrease in the blood glucose level and this effects continued for 24, 48, and 72 hours, respectively. In contrast, basil had no hypoglycemic effect in the healthy rats. Conclusion:The results indicated that 2 and 4 mg/kg doses of basil had significant hypoglycemic effects on the diabetic groups and compensated for the testosterone level in diabetic rats, but had no effect on the healthy rats.
