Grafting is an alternative method for the early production of Araucaria angustifolia seeds, and welding quality is essential for the success of the technique. The objective of this study was to create a classification of welding quality to estimate the percentage of scion survival. The patch and flute grafting techniques were used in a greenhouse and in the field. Survival was evaluated 270 days after grafting (DAG). At 60 DAG, observations of the graft connection region were made with the naked eye, classifying the connections into four welding classes. After 160 DAG, transverse cuts were performed on each class and visually and anatomically evaluated. Flute grafting presented higher initial survival (79%), but at 180 DAG, the survival rate of both techniques was similar (48% for flute and 41% for patch). There was greater scion survival for the class that had only two regions in contact with discontinuity in the bark. Stabilization of survival occurred after 180 DAG, regardless of the welding class. Visually, there were differences in welding quality; however, anatomically, all classes presented vascular connections. The visual welding quality assessment underestimated the percentage of scion survival. However, the vascular connection and development of parenchymatous tissue are promising for diagnosing grafting success. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study aimed to evaluate the evolution of stem taper of trees in Pinus taeda stands using stem analysis data from 126 and 120 trees sampled from established stands in Paraná and Santa Catarina States, respectively. The integer and fractional power polynomial was fitted to estimate diameters inside bark along the stem and was used to construct taper curves by age class. The model identity test was applied to verify the change in stem form of trees. The evolution of natural and artificial form factors in the trees was also analyzed. The curves constructed from the fitted taper functions and form factors showed that the stems become more cylindrical with increasing age; the identity test indicated that, in general, the taper curves statistically differ between themselves. This showed that stratifying the data into age classes for fitting in taper functions can produce more accurate assortment estimates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Evolution of assortment of Pinus taeda stands located at Paraná and Santa Catarina States. The dynamic evolution of assortment of Pinus taeda stands was studied using data from complete stem analysis in stands established at Paraná and Santa Catarina states, sampling 126 and 120 trees respectively. The integer and fractional power equation was fitted to the data set stratified by age classes. With FlorExel ® program volumes assortments by the different ages of stands were estimated. The average tree total volume was 1,157 m³, at age of 18 years in Paraná state and 0,959 m³ at Santa Catarina State. Wood for cellulose had higher representation in the class of 7 to 9 years, with 50% of the volume. Volumes for sawmill type 1 were estimated in plantations from 7 years, and for sawmill type 2 from 8 and 9 years old, respectively, representing 70% of the total volume (sawmill type 1 + sawmill type 2) at 10 to 12 years of age. Tree volumes for veneer were obtained from 13 years of age on, in both stands, arriving to present more than 30% of the total volume from the age 19 years. It was observed a fast change in the "noble" assortment after the age of 13 years. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Drimys brasiliensis Miers is an Angiosperm native to the Atlantic Rainforest, commonly known as cataia. Because of dormancy of its seeds, due to embryonic immaturity, production of cataia seedlings presents challenges regarding propagation of the species. Thus, cuttings emerged as a possible technique to be applied, diminishing plants production time and ensuring uniformity of rooting. Stem cuttings from current year shoots were collected in autumn/2012, prepared with 10-12cm in length, a bevel cut on base and straight on top, keeping two leaves, one leaf or no leaves in the apical portion. After disinfestation, bases of cuttings were submitted to the following treatments with indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) in 50% hydro-alcoholic solution: 100% water, 0, 500, 1500, 3000, 4500 and 6000mg L-1 IBA. A completely randomized experimental design was used, with 3 types of cutting x 7 IBA concentrations, with four replicates of 10 cuttings per experimental unit. After 120 days, the variables percentage of rooted cuttings, number of roots per cutting, length of the three longest roots per cutting, percentage of cuttings with callus, alive and dead, with new shoots and the cuttings maintaining the original leaves were assessed. The application of IBA had no influence on any of the assessed variables. Cuttings with two leaves presented the best rooting percentage (51.1%) and the lowest mortality (5.4%), when compared to cuttings with one leaf (35.0%) or without leaves (0.4%). Cuttings without leaves are to be avoided, since they present the highest mortality percentage (93.6%). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
