Description
Summary:Cultivation of soybean and off-season corn is advancing in areas under restricted edaphoclimatic conditions, such as petric plinthosols, which have significant proportions of gravel and are deficiency in micro-nutrients such as copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn). The effects of Cu and Zn concentrations on soybean nutrition cultivated in petric plinthosol are unclear, and it is unknown whether the levels considered adequate for other soils are sufficient for gravely soils, or even if higher Cu and Zn rates can cause a toxic effect in soybean. The objective was to compare the response of soybean grown in petric plinthosol and ferralsol to Cu and Zn doses for identifying the changes induced by gravel soils and to evaluate the residual effect on off-season corn grown in ferralsol. Four experiments were carried out with Cu and Zn doses applied to soil with the soybean crop in ferralsol and plinthosol. The leaf tissues of soybean crops in the two soils showed the same rate of increase in Zn concentrations, for each kg*[ha.sup.-1] of Zn applied, the increase in Zn was 0.7 mg*[kg.sup.-1], suggesting no difference in the effect of Zn fertilization between soils with and without gravel. The dosages of Zn and Cu Oxysulfate applied to soil did not cause residual effects in the off-season corn. The highest doses of Cu and Zn did not have any toxic effects on the plants. The main criteria for interpreting Cu and Zn in soil analysis are thus also applicable to soybean crops grown in petric plinthosol. Key words: gravelly soils, nutritional toxicity, micronutrients, petroplintites. O cultivo de soja e milho safrinha avanca em condicoes edafoclimaticas restritivas, como nos PLINTOSSOLOS PETRICOS, que apresentam proporgoes consideraveis de cascalho no seu perfil e sao deficientes em cobre (Cu) e zinco (Zn). Nao se sabe os efeitos de doses de Cu e Zn na nutrigao da soja cultivada em PLINTOSSOLO PETRICO, nem se os niveis considerados adequados para outros solos sao suficientes para solos cascalhentos, ou ainda, se altas doses de Cu e Zn podem causar toxidez nas plantas de soja. O objetivo foi comparar a resposta a doses de Cu e Zn em soja cultivada em PLINTOSSOLO PETRICO e em LATOSSOLO, a fim de identificar alteracoes provocadas pelo solo com cascalho, e adicionalmente, avaliar o efeito residual da adubacao feita na soja para o milho safrinha cultivado no LATOSSOLO. Quatro experimentos foram desenvolvidos com doses de Cu e Zn aplicadas via solo na cultura da soja em LATOSSOLO e em PLINTOSSOLO PETRICO. Houve a mesma taxa de incremento na concentracao de Zn no tecido foliar da soja nos dois solos estudados, para cada kg*[ha.sup.-1] de Zn aplicado, o incremento foi de 0,7 mg*[kg.sup.-1] demonstrando que nao ha diferenca de um solo com ou sem cascalho para os efeitos da adubacao. As doses de oxissulfato de Zn e Cu aplicadas via solo nao causaram efeito residual no milho safrinha. As maiores doses de Cu e Zn nao causaram efeito toxico nas plantas. Os principais criterios de interpretacao de Cu e Zn em analise do solo se aplicam para soja cultivada em PLINTOSSOLO PETRICO. Palavras-chave: solos com cascalho, toxidez nutricional, micronutrientes, petroplintita.
