ABSTRACT

This study investigated the profile of orchidists, their cultivation practices, and their knowledge about pests in orchid cultivation in the state of Bahia. There were applied 74 questionnaires to producers (amateurs and commercials) in 23 municipalities. The data were submitted to univariate statistics using the chi-square test, the Mann­Whitney U-test and the Kruskal­Wallis H-test. The survey shows that orchid cultivation is mostly practiced by women (67.6%) and those with higher education (48.7%). Most respondents were amateurs (87.8%). Insects (39.9%) and diseases (32.5%) were the main organisms associated with phytosanitary problems. The presence of insects was reported to occur mainly in the leaves (47%), mainly mealybugs (46.3%). Correspondence was significant between commercial and amateur groups according to the pairwise Mann­Whitney U-test(1) = 370.04 and p < 0.01. The Kruskal­Wallis H-test(27) = 924.78 and p < 0.01 discriminated categories between the groups. Despite the growing interest in orchid cultivation in the state of Bahia, most orchidists are amateurs. The study warns about the risk of pest dispersion between crops since exchanging plants and purchasing specimens in open markets are common practices.

ABSTRACT

Objetivou-se, nesse trabalho, obter informações sobre a diversidade de abelhas visitantes em gliricídia (Gliricidia sepium (Jacq.) Stend.), na região do Recôncavo Baiano. As espécies visitantes nas flores foram coletadas, no período de setembro a novembro de 2005. Definiu-se, aleatoriamente, 15 inflorescências por intervalo de hora para a coleta efetiva das abelhas, sendo utilizado um minuto por inflorescência, ao longo do intervalo de 07:00 às 18:00 horas, durante o período de floração. Um total de 10 espécies foram identificadas, sendo que Apis mellifera foi a espécie mais abundante, com freqüência relativa igual a 25,40 %, seguida da Trigona spinipes (23,81 %), Nannotrigona testaceicornis (14,28 %), Xylocopa grisescens e Trigona fuscipennis (ambas com 12,70 %). O pico de visita das abelhas ocorreu das 10:01 às 11:00 horas. A. mellifera, T. spinipes e N. testaceicornis foram consideradas as espécies com potencial para a polinização das flores de gliricídias, na região do Recôncavo Baiano.


The focus of this paper was to get information about the diversity of bees visiting Gliricidia sepium (Jacq.) Stend. in the Recôncavo Baiano region. The species visiting the flowers were collected in the period from September to November 2005. For the collection of the bees, 15 inflorescences were defined randomly per hour, one minute being used per inflorescence, throughout the interval from 07:00 a.m. to 06:00 p.m., during the blooming period. A total of ten species were identified, Apis mellifera being the most abundant species, with relative frequency equal to 25.40%, followed by Trigona spinipes (23.81%), Nannotrigona testaceicornis(14.28%), Xylocopa grisescens, and Trigona fuscipennis (both with 12.70%). The peak of bee visits occurred from 10:01a.m. to 11:00 a.m. A. mellifera, T. spinipes, and N. testaceicornis were considered the species with potential for the pollination of Gliciridia sepium flowers in the region of the Recôncavo Baiano.

ABSTRACT

O girassol (Helianthus annuus L.) é uma espécie de polinização cruzada, cujos principais polinizadores são as abelhas. Este trabalho teve por objetivo obter informações sobre a diversidade de abelhas visitantes nos capítulos de girassol, fornecendo subsídios para identificar os possíveis polinizadores efetivos na região do Recôncavo Baiano. As coletas das abelhas foram realizadas no período de setembro-outubro de 2004, janeiro-fevereiro e maio-junho de 2005 sobre os híbridos de girassol, "AG 920" e "AG 930", cultivados na área experimental de Entomologia do Centro de Ciências Agrárias e Ambientais da Universidade Federal da Bahia, em Cruz das Almas-BA. Um total de 26 espécies de abelhas foram identificadas, sendo que Apis mellifera foi a mais abundante (58,32 por cento), seguida de Nannotrigona testaceicornis (18,53 por cento) e Trigona spinipes (11,37 por cento). As demais espécies apresentaram uma freqüência relativa inferior a 5 por cento.


Sunflower, Helianthus annuus L., is a cross-pollinating plant whose main pollinator are bees. This work was airmed at getting information about the diversity of visiting bee on sunflower inflorescence, by identifing the possible sunflower pollinators in Recôncavo Baiano region. The bees were collected on September-October of 2004, January-February and May-June of 2005 sunflowers hybrids (AG 920 and AG 930) cultivated in the entomology experimental area of Centro de Ciências Agrárias e Ambiental da Universidade Federal da Bahia, Brazil. Twenty six species were identified Apis mellifera (58.32 percent), Nannotrigona testaceicornis (18.53 percent) and Trigona spinipes (11.37 percent) were the most abundant species. The other species presented a frequency lower than relative 5 percent.
