ABSTRACT
Abstract Introduction: The "restingas" (coast vegetation) can serve as a species corridor in ecotonal environments due to the particulars regarding the composition of the flora. The studies covering the entire length of the Maranhão state coast are necessary to understand the diversity and distribution of plant species present in the "restingas". Objective: The objective of this study was to characterize the structure and conservation of the woody vegetation of a "restinga" in Maranhão. Methods: Phytosociological sampling of woody vegetation was carried out using the quadrants method, followed by classification of species by successional group; in addition to analyzing the diametric and hypsometric data of the populations whose species presented the highest importance value (IV). Results: In total, 24 species and 16 families were identified, 72 % of which were classified in the initial stages of succession. The values of H' and J' were 2.637 nat.ind-1and 0.830, respectively. The mean height and diameter were 2.1 m and 27.66 cm, respectively. The species Coccoloba ramosissima Wedd., Byrsonima crassifolia (L.) Kunth, Anacardium occidentale L., Manilkara triflora (Allemão) Monach, and Astrocaryum vulgare Mart. presented the highest IVs. Conclusions: It was observed that characteristics such as size, power of regrowth, and ease of regeneration processes could be useful for choosing target species for recovery actions in coastal areas.
Resumen Introducción: Las "restingas" pueden servir como corredor de especies en ambientes ecotonales debido a los aspectos de la composición de la flora. Los estudios a lo largo de la costa del estado de Maranhão son necesarios para comprender la diversidad y distribución de las especies de plantas presentes en las "restingas". Objetivo: El objetivo de este estudio fue caracterizar la estructura y conservación de la vegetación leñosa de una "restinga" en Maranhão. Métodos: Se realizó un muestreo fitosociológico de la vegetación leñosa utilizando cuadrantes, seguido de la clasificación de especies por grupo sucesional; además de analizar los datos diamétricos e hipsométricos de las poblaciones cuyas especies presentaron el de mayor valor importancia (VI). Resultados: En total, se identificaron 24 especies y 16 familias, 72 % de los cuales fueron clasificados en las etapas iniciales de sucesión. Los valores de H' y J' fueron 2.637 nat.ind-1 y 0.830, respectivamente. La altura y el diámetro medios fueron de 2.1 my 27.66 cm, respectivamente. Las especies Coccoloba ramosissima Wedd., Byrsonima crassifolia (L.) Kunth, Anacardium occidentale L., Manilkara triflora (Allemão) Monach, y Astrocaryum vulgare Mart. presentaron los valores de mayor importancia (VI). Conclusiones: se observó que características como el tamaño, capacidad de rebrote y la facilidad de los procesos de regeneración podrían ser útiles para elegir las especies objetivo para las acciones de recuperación en las zonas costeras.

Este trabalho teve como objetivo o enraizamento de miniestacas de material juvenil da preciosa (Aniba canelilla (H.B.K) Mez), tratadas com diferentes concentrações de ácido indol-3-butirico (AIB) na forma líquida. As miniestacas foram obtidas de mudas de regeneração natural com aproximadamente um ano de idade e modeladas com 5 cm de comprimento e 0,4 - 0,6 mm de diâmetro. O experimento foi conduzido em casa de vegetação, com sistema de nebulização intermitente regulada em 20 segundos para aspersões com intervalos de 20 minutos. Como substrato foi utilizado areia lavada. Semanalmente foram feitas aplicações de fertilizante foliar e fungicida. O experimento foi delineado em cinco blocos inteiramente ao acaso, com cinco tratamentos (0, 300 ppm, 600 ppm, 1200 ppm e 2000 ppm de AIB) com 25 miniestacas/tratamento, totalizando 125 miniestacas no experimento. Após 180 dias do plantio, as miniestacas foram retiradas do substrato e avaliados os seguintes parâmetros: porcentagem de enraizamento, porcentagem de sobrevivência, porcentagem de calo; porcentagem de brotos; número de raízes principais, comprimento médio das raízes; peso da matéria seca dos brotos e peso da matéria seca das raízes. Os resultados indicam que a emissão de raízes das estacas de material juvenil da preciosa independe do uso do AIB. Entretanto, o uso desta auxina na concentração de 2000 ppm estimulou o enraizamento (79,04 %); sobrevivência (89,43%) e brotação (64%) das miniestacas.
This study aimed to the rooting of minicuttings of juvenile material of preciosa (Aniba canelilla (H.B.K) Mez), through the use of concentrations of 0, 300 ppm, 600 ppm, 1200 ppm and 2000 ppm of acid indole-3-butirico (IBA) in liquid form. The cuttings were obtained from seedlings of natural regeneration with approximately one years of age and shaped with 5 cm long and 0.4 - 0.6 mm in diameter. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, with intermittent mist system governed by 20 seconds to mist at intervals of 20 minutes. As substrate was used sand washed. Weekly applications were made from fertilizer and foliar fungicide. The design used was completely randomized with five treatments and twenty-five repetitions, totaling 125 minicuttings. After 180 days after planting, the minicuttings were taken from the substrate and evaluated the following parameters: percentage of rooting, percentage of survival, percentage of calluses, dry weight of the sprouts, number, size and dry weight of roots. The results indicate that the rooting of minicuttings of juvenile material of preciosa independent of the use of the IBA. However, the use of auxin in the concentration of 2000 ppm stimulated rooting (79.04%), survival (89.43%) and sprouted (64%) of minicuttings.
