Item Steps of cryopreservation of coffee seeds: physiological responses and antioxidant systems(Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, 2023-08-21) Souza, Ana Cristina de; Costa, Marina Chagas; Figueiredo, Madeleine Alves de; Pereira, Cristiane Carvalho; Coelho, Stefânia Vilas Boas; Vilela, Ana Luiza Oliveira; Pereira, Diego de Souza; Rosa, Sttela Dellyzete Veiga Franco daThe cryopreservation of plant germplasm at ultralow temperatures is an alternative technique for the long-term storage of seeds of the genus Coffea sp. However, for this technique to be successful, cell integrity must be maintained at all stages of the process on the basis of scientific research. The present study investigated validated cryopreservation protocols for Coffea arabica L. seeds and evaluate the effects on the physiological and biochemical characteristics of the seeds at each stage of the process. Seeds were dried on silica gel or with saturated saline solution, precooled or not in a biofreezer, immersed in nitrogen, and reheated in a water bath. After each of these steps, the physiological and biochemical quality of the seeds was determined. Pre-cooling is a step that can be dispensed with in the cryopreservation of Coffea arabica seeds, direct immersion in liquid nitrogen being more indicated. Coffea arabica L. seeds tolerate cryopreservation after rapid drying in silica gel up to water contents of 17 or 20% (wb), with greater survival at 17%. The enzyme activities of catalase, polyphenol oxidase and peroxidase are indicators of the quality of C. arabica L. seeds subjected to cryopreservation.Item Protein profile in arabica coffee seeds in electrophoresis gel: importance of freeze-drying(Associação Brasileira de Tecnologia de Sementes - ABRATES, 2022-05-13) Fávaris, Nathália Aparecida Bragança; Rosa, Sttela Dellyzete Veiga Franco da; Figueiredo, Madeleine Alves de; Coelho, Stefânia Vilas Boas; Vilela, Ana Luiza de Oliveira; Padilha, LilianCoffee seeds are sensitive to desiccation and are used or stored with different moisture content values, which may affect the results of quality assessment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in protein profile in electrophoresis gel in coffee seeds with different moisture content values under freeze-drying and without freeze-drying. Two lots of arabica coffee seeds were used, one of newly-harvested seeds and another of stored seeds. The seeds were dried to the moisture content values of 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40%. The physiological quality of the seeds was assessed through the germination test, electrical conductivity, and the profiles of the enzymes SOD, CAT, PO, GOT, MDH, and EST and of heat-resistant proteins. In general, there is an effect on expression of these enzymes in accordance with the presence of free water in the seeds. Moist seeds have little to no enzyme expression. The freeze-drying process allows preservation of coffee seed quality and does not change the functionality of the enzymes studied. The isoenzyme profiles of the antioxidant process in arabica coffee seeds are affected by the initial moisture content of the seeds. The freeze-drying process of the seeds ensures greater sensitivity in detection of the expression of these isoenzymes.Item Cultivo in vitro de embriões zigóticos de café utilizando solução de ácido bórico(Embrapa Café, 2019-10) Pereira, Cristiane Carvalho; Souza, Ana Cristina de; Rosa, Sttela Dellyzete Veiga Franco da; Fantazzini, Tatiana Botelho; Stéphano Filho, Ricardo; Ricaldoni, Marcela Andreotti; Figueiredo, Madeleine Alves deSementes de café são armazenadas por um curto período de tempo, devido à sua rápida perda da qualidade, o que dificulta a obtenção de mudas com desejável padrão de qualidade, no momento ideal ao plantio. Em pesquisas recentes, tem sido confirmado que o endosperma das sementes de café é mais sensível ao processo de deterioração do que o embrião, sendo que este pode germinar e formar uma plântula normal quando isolado de uma semente deteriorada. O uso de antioxidantes pode melhorar o desempenho de sementes submetidas a estresses porque promove a remoção de radicais livres presentes nas células dos tecidos vegetais de sementes deterioradas. Neste contexto, objetivou-se investigar os efeitos do uso de solução de ácido bórico no preparo das sementes para a extração, sobre o crescimento in vitro de embriões zigóticos de café. Foram utilizados lotes de diferentes níveis de qualidade de sementes de Coffea arabica L., cultivar Catuaí amarelo IAC 62, obtidos de sementes recém colhidas ou submetidas ao envelhecimento acelerado por quatro ou seis dias. As sementes foram embebidas em água e em ácido bórico antes da extração dos embriões, que em seguida foram extraídos de forma asséptica e inoculados em meio MS. Foram avaliadas a presença de folhas e de raízes aos 15 dias, a germinação aos 30 dias e o tamanho de hipocótilo e de raízes aos 120 dias. A adição de ácido bórico na água de embebição das sementes proporciona plântulas mais vigorosas na cultura dos embriões.Item Big Coffee VL.: Seed desiccation tolerance, sieve classification, and physiological quality(Editora UFLA, 2018-10) Souza, Ana Cristina de; Rosa, Sttela Dellyzete Veiga Franco da; Vilela, Amanda Lima; Figueiredo, Madeleine Alves de; Vilela, Ana Luiza de Oliveira; Stéphano Filho, Ricardo; Carvalho, Milene Alves de FigueiredoA coffee plant producing large fruit, seeds, and leaves in relation to conventional coffee plants, possibly generated by genetic mutation, was named Big Coffee VL. Seeds of this coffee plant were classified by size and used to establish the crop, whose progenies were designated as Big Coffee VL. large, Big Coffee VL. medium, and Big Coffee VL. small. The aim in this study was to investigate desiccation tolerance, together with size classification, and evaluate the physiological quality of the seeds of this progeny. Seeds of each type of Big Coffee VL. and of the cultivar Topázio were collected. High moisture seeds and seeds dried to 11% moisture content were evaluated to assess desiccation tolerance. Dried seeds of each Big Coffee VL. progeny and of the Topázio cultivar were classified by size in sieve testing using oblong screens for separation of peaberry seeds, and circular sieves from 22 to 12 for separation of flat seeds. All seeds were subjected to physiological evaluation through the germination test and determination of seedling dry matter. A completely randomized experimental design (CRD) was used; results were subjected to analysis of variance and means compared by the Scott-Knott test. Big Coffee VL. seeds tolerate desiccation to moisture content of 11% wet basis. Seeds of the Topázio cultivar have better physiological performance than seeds of the Big Coffee VL progenies. The bigger the seeds of Big Coffee VL., the better their physiological performance, exhibiting greater seedling dry matter.
