•Sixty pecan accessions were morphologically, chemically and genetically evaluated.•Morphometric measures presented mean values similar to estimations previously reported.•Chemical composition is ...near homogeneous among accessions.•Genetic splitting of accessions was not related to other traits, but revealed high diversity.•The retrieved data have suitable application for species breeding and the release of new cultivars.
Pecan (Carya illinoinensis) is an important commercially cultivated nut tree grown in several countries around the world, including temperate, tropical and subtropical regions. We employed morphometric, chemical and genetic analyses to characterize 60 pecan accessions from Southern Brazil. Here we show that a large spectrum of morphological traits is conserved in the trees cultivated by local farmers. On the other hand, chemical composition of the accessions did not diverge significantly. In addition, moderate to high genetic diversity is observed in these plants. Based on these results, we suggest the use of Participatory Plant Breeding as strategy for conservation of the genetic resources of pecan and improvement of nut production and commercialization. Moreover, the intellectual property of the farmers responsible for the genetic improvement of pecan have to be recognized and protected, since it is the key factor in this process.

Background
Most patients who undergo tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair experience late right ventricle (RV) dysfunction due to pulmonary valve regurgitation (PVR). Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is ...the gold standard method for evaluating RV during follow‐up. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) has been introduced as a novel method for the assessment of RV dysfunction. We aimed to compare the feasibility of GLS and CMR for assessing RV function after TOF repair.
Methods
We systematically reviewed the English literature using PubMed, SciELO and Google Scholar for articles published between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2020. Articles evaluating RV function comparing by GLS and CMR after TOF repair were included.
Results
Nine studies including 465 patients were analyzed. Most patients were men (280; 60%), the male:female ratio was 1.5:1, and the age range was .8 to 57.7 years. The mean follow‐up time was 6 to 32 months. The correlation between RV GLS and RV ejection fraction (EF) by CMR was negative for the articles and varied from moderate to strong (r = ‐.45, r = ‐.60, r = ‐.76).
Conclusion
Right ventricle GLS can be considered for routine follow‐up of TOF repair patients, even though CMR remains the noninvasive gold standard method. Using a single parameter may not allow comparison of the accuracy of 3D RV EF by using CMR and GLS. Further studies with a larger number of patients undergoing TOF repair are required to evaluate the correlation between these examinations.

Through sustainable agriculture it is possible to explore the coffee culture in consortium with native forests in more rugged reliefs, as coffee is a permanent crop in addition to the climatic ...conditions offered by the swamps that favor its development. Given the above, the present work proposes, based on the acidity results, to quantify the need for correctives in the soil to obtain a better nutritional use offered by agroforestry cultivation of organic coffee in the shade with favorable results to increase productivity and, consequently, the farmer's profit. The research was carried out at the Várzea da Onça farm, in the Yaguara Ecological Complex, located in the municipality of Taquaritinga do Norte, Borborema plateau, in the Agreste Pernambuco mesoregion. Altitude, it is necessary to adopt appropriate management techniques that guarantee production, soil conservation and biodiversity, proposing soil correction to guarantee the ideal nutritional conditions for coffee growth. For this purpose, soil samples were collected in the Top (T), Hillside (E) and Pedimento (P) ranges at depths of 0-20, 20-40 and 40-60 cm when planting shaded coffee and soil samples from Native Forest (MN) preserved and legally protected from the Brejo de Taquaritinga. Active, exchangeable and potential acidity were analyzed, as well as the sum of bases, the potential and effective cation exchange capacity, base saturation and aluminum saturation. The results obtained were subjected to analysis of variance and the means were tested at 5% by the Tukey test. A potential of the system was found with low to very low natural fertility, with a strongly acidic reaction. Thus, adequate soil management and correction techniques are necessary for the crop to absorb all the nutrients made available by the organic matter present on the surface, concluding that all slopes require liming, the slope of Hillside and Mata Nativa they also need plastering for the culture to develop properly.
