Resumo: Seven laboratory experiments were carried out to develop a new technique for the study of the nitroganase activity (C2H2 reduction) of detached roots of several tropical grasses. The effect of duration of incubation, pO2, multiplication of N2-fixing bacteria, type and periods of sampling were compared. The new method consists of harvesting pieces of roots attached to 10 cm shoots into 3 litres flask full of water, than replacing the water with N2, 3% O2 and 12% C2H2, incubating at room temperature and determining C2H2 reduction rates between 6 and 8 h. The new methodology developed to study nitrogenase activity in 4 of the 5 grasses understimated that obtained in intact soil-plant systems, but the techniques were significantly correlated with each other (r = 0,91**).

Foram comparados o efeito da duração da incubação, pO2, multiplicação de bactérias fixadoras de N2, períodos de amostragem e tipos de amostras. O novo método consiste em medir a redução C2H2 em raízes destacadas, com 10 cm de parte aérea e incubadas em frascos de três litros cheios de água, substituindo-se, depois, a água por N2, 3% de O2 e 12% de C2H2. Nesses fracos, podem ser medidas taxas de redução de acetileno com 6 a 8 horas de incubação. Esta nova técnica, desenvolvida para estudar a atividade nitrogenase, subestimou, em 4 das 5 gramíneas, aquela encontrada para o sistema solo-planta intactos; contudo, as duas técnicas se correlacionaram significativamente (r = 0,91**).Pesquisa Agropecuaria BrasileiraPesquisa Agropecuária BrasileiraSouto, Sebastião M.Döbereiner, Johanna2014-04-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/15599Pesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira; v.19, n.5, maio 1984; 553-565Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira; v.19, n.5, maio 1984; 553-5651678-39210100-104xreponame:Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAporhttps://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pab/article/view/15599/9604info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2014-04-16T19:22:17Zoai:ojs.seer.sct.embrapa.br:article/15599Revistahttp://seer.sct.embrapa.br/index.php/pabPRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phppab@sct.embrapa.br || sct.pab@embrapa.br1678-39210100-204Xopendoar:2014-04-16T19:22:17Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
