Crescimento e conteúdo de frutanos em plantas de Vernonia herbacea (Vell.) Rusby submetidas à adubação nitrogenada

Abstract: -(Growth and fructan contents in plants of Vernonia herbacea (Vell.) Rusby cultivated under nitrogen supply). Plants of V. herbacea accumulate high amounts of fructans of the inulin type in the underground organs, named rhizophores. The effect of different concentrations of nitrogen, 6, 12 and 24 kg N.ha -1 supplied as (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 on plant growth and fructan accumulation was investigated in plants obtained from rhizophore fragments and cultivated in a cerrado area. Young, six-month-old plants, showed lower … Show more

“…The energy rich compounds yielded were used to supply the more intense aerial The high levels of glucose observed between 90 and 180 days in N-limited plants correlates with the increase in fructan concentration detected during this period, as it is released from sucrose by the action of sucrose: sucrose fructosyltransferase (SST) during fructan synthesis. These variations were also detected in control plants, although less markedly, a result consistent with the lower fructan concentration usually detected when aerial growth is favored as shown by Cuzzuol et al (2003).…”

“…A busca de novas culturas produtoras de frutanos é grande. Embora as maiores fontes comerciais de frutanos são raízes de Dhalia sp., Helianthus tuberosus e Cichorium intybus de regiões temperadas (Cuzzuol et al 2003), a descoberta de novas plantas tropicais produtoras desses carboidratos é de grande interesse para a indústria alimentícia e farmacêutica. No cerrado, mais de 50% das espécies da família Asteraceae produzem frutanos do tipo inulina em seus órgãos subterrâneos, especialmente em Vernonia herbacea (Tertuliano & Figueiredo-Ribeiro 1993) em outras espécies de dicotiledôneas tais como Gomphrena macrocephala (Amaranthaceae) que acumulam frutanos do tipo fleanos em suas raízes tuberosas (Vieira & Figueiredo-Ribeiro 1993).…”

“…Em relação aos resultados anteriormente obtidos, relacionando o crescimento e a produção de frutanos em V. herbacea (Teixeira et al, 1997;Carvalho et al, 1998;Cuzzuol et al, 2003), este estudo apresenta uma solução nutritiva elaborada especialmente para o cultivo de plantas dessa espécie, com vistas à sua produtividade.…”
