Avaliação genética de indivíduos de erva-mate ( Ilex paraguariensis St. Hil.) na região de Caarapó, MS, pelo procedimento reml/blup.

The objective of this paper was to estimate genetic values and parameters for the traits height and diameter of erva-mate individuals using the methodology of mixing models (REML/BLUP procedure). The half-sib progenies were established at the Indigenous Reserve Kaiowa and Guarani, in Caarapo/MS, in a randomized block design, with six treatments, six replications and twenty plants per plot. Nine months after planting, height and diameter were evaluated. Genetic gain predition of 4.16% for height and of 7.20% for diameter were obtained with selection of the best ten individuals. Although the genetic gain is not high for the evaluated age, it stimulate the use of these germoplasms in future evaluations at advanced ages, exploring the variability within progenies.

Variabilidade genética e estimativas de herdabilidade para o caráter germinação em matrizes de Albizia lebbeck

Fast growing and nitrogen fixing forest trees species play an important role in rural areas, mainly in degraded lands, where they provide multiple purposes and facilities for intercropping with other crops. Albizia lebbeck is one of such species. This paper aimed at estimating the genetic variability for germination in a progeny test of this species. Seeds from 26 parent trees were collected in a site located at Campo Grande, MS. The germination tests were performed in the UCDB University under a randomised complete block design with five replications and 15 plants per plot. The broad sense heritability estimates were 0.43 and 0.79 at individual and parent tree mean levels, respectively, which denotes a moderate to high genetic control. Selection of the best 10 parents provided a genetic gain of 8.1%. This genetic resource can be used in a genetic improvement program for the species.

The native tea plant (paraguayan tea) and the Kaiowá and Guarani: from an ethnobotanic approach to the promotion of local development

The present study aims at establishing a historical-cultural relationship between the Kaiowá and the Guarani and the native tea plant (Paraguayan tea), with alternatives for the promotion of local development. The text seeks to understand the repercussions in the use of the plant Ilex by the indigenous communities and the colonizers, with the economic exploitation of the plant and the strengthening of traditional knowledge. Throughout the study, effort has been made to bring together information which clarifi es the role of the native tea plant in regional history, emphasizing and adequating the roles of the agents responsible for the development of what today is the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, with special emphasis on the participation of the Jesuits, the Kaiowá and Guarani and the social-environmental repercussions as a result of colonization, as well as the importance of policies that strengthen the cultivation of the plant in areas where it grows wild.The present study aims at establishing a historical-cultural relationship between the Kaiowa and the Guarani and the native tea plant (Paraguayan tea), with alternatives for the promotion of local development.
