La evaluación de plantaciones, cálculo de la biomasa aérea forestal (BAF) y carbono almacenado representa un papel importante en el manejo forestal y mitigación del cambio climático. Este estudio evalúa metodologías de monitoreo a través del uso de imágenes multiespectrales y LiDAR acopladas a un VANT, con la finalidad de realizar su validación y generar modelos que permitan estimar el carbono almacenado. Se evaluaron siete especies de <em>Prosopis </em>sp. con la metodología convencional y se encontraron diferencias significativas entre las especies para las características dasométricas e índices de vegetación, así como en la comparación con los datos obtenidos con el LiDAR. Se seleccionaron modelos para determinar BAF y la asociación entre el carbono aéreo obtenido con los modelos constituidos por datos de LiDAR e índices de vegetación que presentaron correlaciones significativas (p &lt; 0,05), se construyeron siete modelos para predicción de carbono y destaca el modelo que tiene como variables regresoras la altura total y área de copa obtenidas del LiDAR, así como los índices CIgreen, GNDVI, RECI, LCI y NDVI (R² = 0,77). Lo cual confirma que el uso de la metodología LiDAR con los índices de vegetación permite una estimación más práctica del carbono almacenado en la plantación.</p> Sheyla Y.

This study aimed to evaluate whether seed vigor contributes to overcoming saline stress, seeking to identify the association between the antioxidant system and seed lot vigor. Seeds of the BAF55 genotype with two levels of vigor were used. The seeds were germinated under no-stress conditions, with 75 and 150 mmol L<sup>-1</sup> of sodium chloride in the solution during germination. After five days, morphological changes and changes in the enzyme’s catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, guaiacol peroxidase, proline, malondialdehyde, and hydrogen peroxide were evaluated. An increase in antioxidant activity was observed with the imposed stresses and no significant difference was observed between the vigor level, except in the condition of 75 mmol L<sup>-1</sup> in the hypocotyl of the seedlings and, for proline in the condition of 150 mmol L<sup>-1</sup> in which the low-vigor presented greater activity. The stress of 150 mmol L<sup>-1</sup> showed greater severity in seeds of low-vigor, resulting in greater lipid peroxidation in the seedlings formed and resulting in seedlings with lower performance.</p> Matheus Santin Padilha, Cileide Maria Medeiros Coelho, Yasmin Pincegher Siega Derechos de autor 2025 Scientia Agropecuaria https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://revistas.unitru.edu.pe/index.php/scientiaagrop/article/view/6387 lun, 05 may 2025 00:00:00 +0000 Impact of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, white fungus waste, and nano fertilizer on pyrophosphatase activity, growth characteristics, and yield of stevia plant https://revistas.unitru.edu.pe/index.php/scientiaagrop/article/view/6388 <p>Aimed to know the effect of <em>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</em> bacteria, white fungus waste, and nano fertilizer on the pyrophosphatase enzyme, growth characteristics, and yield of stevia plants. The bacterial vaccine represented the first factor. It was added at two levels: B0 (without inoculum) and B1 (injecting 2 ml of liquid bio-inoculum represented by <em>P. aeruginosa</em>). The second factor was adding white fungus waste at three levels defined by Ab0 (without adding white mushroom waste), Ab1 (adding white mushroom waste at level 5 tons/h), and Ab2 (adding white mushroom waste at level 10 tons/h). Nano fertilizer was added as a third factor at four levels: N0 (without adding nano fertilizer), N1 (adding 4 kg/h of nano zinc), N2 (adding 2 kg/h of nano boron), and N3 (adding a mixture of 1 kg/h of nano boron + 2 kg/h of nano zinc). The triple combination B1Ab1N3 achieved a significant superiority in the activity of the pyrophosphatase enzyme in the first and second harvests and recorded (260.67 and 166.00) µg PO<sub>4</sub><sup>-3</sup>-P/g soil 5/h, respectively, compared to the treatment without addition, which recorded (55.00 and 44.67) µg PO<sub>4</sub><sup>-3</sup>-P/g soil 5/h, respectively. In contrast, the triple combination B1Ab2N3 achieved the highest growth and yield characteristics of the stevia plant and recorded the highest rate of plant height, dry weight of leaves and total yield, and recorded 83.90 and 76.00 cm/plant, 61.7 and 53.0 g/plant, 4933 and 4240 kg/h, respectively, compared to the treatment without addition, which recorded 68.98 and 60.63 cm/plant, 44.6 and 38.1 g/plant, 3563 and 3050 kg/h respectively.</p> Zahraa J.

Mortiño, the Andean Blueberry (<em>Vaccinium floribundum </em>Kunth) is a wild berry that grows in high-altitude grasslands with nutritious and commercial potential in Ecuador. In this study, the use of PPM<sup>TM</sup> (Plant Preservative Mixture™) was effective controlling contamination for the <em>in vitro</em> establishment of <em>Vaccinium floribundum </em>Kunth in contrast to a conventional method using EtOH and Clorox. Stems were defoliated and cut into 1 cm segments, then immersed in liquid MS (Murashige &amp; Skoog) supplemented with 5% v/v PPM<sup>TM</sup> without pH adjustment for 5 hours under constant shaking. After immersion, segments were transferred to flasks containing WPM (Woody Plant Media) medium supplemented with an additional 2 mlL<sup>-1</sup> PPM<sup>TM</sup>. Persistent microbial contaminants in the <em>in vitro</em> explants were isolated and identified through molecular methods and gene sequences analyzed using the GenBank database resulted in the identification of three bacterial species: <em>Methylobacterium</em> <em>sp</em>., <em>Methylobacterium radiotolerans</em>, and <em>Bacillus pumilus</em>. In addition, three fungal species were also discovered: Xylaria <em>sp</em>., <em>Xylaria feejeensis</em>, and <em>Diaporthe lutecens</em>. Additionally, a multiplication assay was made with the aseptic stems from the sterilization protocol to evaluate four different growth regulators: 2ip, kinetin, zeatin and meta-topolin. kinetin showed very low responses with a mean of 1.2 shoots per stem. The highest number of shoots per stem (9 shoots) was obtained with 5 mg L<sup>-1</sup> 2ip. The use of zeatin and meta-topolin facilitated shoot proliferation with the following concentrations: 3 mg L<sup>-1 </sup>zeatin + 0.5 mg L<sup>-1</sup> NAA (1-Naphthaleneacetic Acid) and 3 mg L<sup>-1 </sup>Meta-topolin + 0.5 mg L<sup>-1 </sup>NAA. These findings demonstrate the successful establishment of an <em>in vitro</em> disinfection and multiplication protocol for <em>V. floribundum</em>.&nbsp;</p> Lissette Moreno-Peña, Karen Hidalgo-Escobar, Juan M.
