Enquanto a toxidez de manganês (Mn) pode ser um problema comum nas regiões tropicais com predominância de solos ácidos, a deficiência deste nutriente, relatada em diversas espécies vegetais, tem sido atribuída principalmente ao uso excessivo de calcário. O estudo foi desenvolvido em casa-de-vegetação e teve como objetivo avaliar as causas de maior tolerância à toxidez de manganês e susceptibilidade à deficiência. Os cultivares de soja [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] Santa Rosa, IAC-15 e IAC-Foscarin 31 foram desenvolvidos em solução nutritiva (pH 4,97) com cinco níveis de Mn (0,5; 1,0; 2,0; 4,0 e 10,0 µmol/L), nos experimentos de eficiência de absorção e de uso (experimento 1), enquanto que para o estudo de tolerância ao excesso (experimento 2), as doses foram de 2,0; 100,0; 150,0; 200,0 e 250,0 µmol/L. Para as observações de anatomia e ultraestrutura (experimento 3), foram utilizadas três concentrações de Mn na solução nutritiva: 0,5; 2,0 (controle) e 200,0 µmol/L. O delineamento estatístico foi o de blocos completos ao acaso em esquema fatorial 5x3 (cinco doses de Mn e três cultivares), com três repetições. No experimento 1, os sintomas visuais de deficiência manifestaram-se, nos três cultivares, a partir do décimo dia após o início dos tratamentos, no estádio V3. Na condição do fornecimento das duas mais baixas doses, tanto as folhas inferiores quanto as superiores exibiram os sintomas de carência. As faixas de valores de concentração de Mn no tecido associadas à deficiência variaram entre 9 a 16 mg/kg nas folhas superiores e entre 15 a 26 mg/kg nas folhas inferiores. Ocorreu interação significativa entre as doses de Mn e os cultivares de soja para as produções de massa seca da parte aérea, de raízes e total. Para a produção de grãos e pericarpos constatou-se significância para as doses de Mn somente para IAC-15 e Santa Rosa. O cultivar IAC-Foscarin 31 não apresentou resposta às doses de Mn fornecidas, porém, mostrou-se eficiente na utilização de Mn para a produção de grãos. Os índices de eficiência de produção de grãos (IEP) calculados para IAC-Foscarin 31 (Mn-eficiente IEP>1,0), IAC-15 e Santa Rosa (Mn-pouco eficiente 0,5

Abstract in English

Manganese (Mn) toxicity may be a major constraint for crop production in acid soils of tropical countries. Nevertheless, deficiency has been recognized as a worldwide nutritional disorder frequently related to excessive lime. A greenhouse experiment was carried out with the objective of evaluating the efficiency of uptake of manganese and use in three-soybean cultivars [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] as well as their tolerance to manganese excess. Cultivars (Santa Rosa, IAC-15 and IAC-Foscarin 31) were evaluated under five rates of Mn (0.5; 1.0; 2.0; 4.0 and 10.0 µmol/L) in the nutrient solution (pH = 4.97) with respect to efficiency of uptake and of use. Other experiment was carried out with the objective of evaluating tolerance to manganese in the same cultivars when grown at five doses (2.0; 100.0; 150.0; 200.0 and 250.0 µmol/L). For anatomical and ultrastructures studies the Mn doses tested were 0.5; 2.0 (control) and 200.0 µmol/L. The experimental design was a 5x3 factorial of five Mn doses and three cultivars, set in a randomized block, with three replications. In experiment 1, visual symptoms of Mn deficiency (in both upper and lower leaves at the two lowest rates), started at the 10th day after transplanting of the three cultivars, at the V3 vegetative growth stage. The average of Mn concentration in the deficient upper leaves was close to 9 to 16 mg/kg, ranging from 15 to 26 mg/kg in the lower ones. Results showed significant interaction of Mn rates and cultivars with the dry matter of the tops, roots and total. Mn rates promoted increase in grain and pericarps yield only on IAC-15 and Santa Rosa cultivars. IAC-Foscarin 31 did not show grain yield responses to Mn supply. However, the indices (grain yield efficiency index) calculated for IAC-Foscarin 31, IAC-15 and Santa Rosa were, respectively, of 1.41; 0.78 and 0.66. They were therefore classified as Mn-Efficient (IEP>1.0) and of Mn-intermediate efficiency use (0.5
