Scope
- The stated mission is to disseminate the development of agronomic research, and the journal takes manuscripts that address topics directly tied to agriculture.该刊自述的宗旨是传播农学研究的进展,征稿范围限定于与农业直接相关的题目。
- The journal grew out of the yearly series the agronomy school had published since 1971 and was set up to register results from the pioneering work carried out in the central region of Brazil.该刊源自农学院自 1971 年起刊行的一年一册连续出版物,创办之初意在记录巴西中部地区开展的先驱性研究结果。
- Crop production and agronomy occupy a wide place in the pages, with recent volumes carrying work on rice and forage intercropping, maize under an antecipe system, soybean and wheat.作物生产与农艺学在版面中占有很大比重,近年的卷次刊有稻作与牧草间作、前茬作物制度下的玉米,以及大豆与小麦的研究。
- Pasture work is a standing subject, and the management of Megathyrsus maximus intercropped with tolerant sorghum has been treated in the recent volumes.牧草研究是长期保留的题目,近年的卷次刊有耐除草剂高粱与(Megathyrsus maximus)间作栽培的管理研究。
- Soil management runs alongside it, with biochar tested on corn yield and nitrogen efficiency worked out for wheat with cattle slurry and dicyandiamide.土壤管理与之并行,近年刊有生物炭对玉米产量的试验,以及以牛粪浆配伍双氰胺对小麦氮素利用效率的测算。
- Water relations receive steady attention, and the recent volumes hold studies of grain sorghum hybrids under drought at flowering and of native tree seedlings under water deficit.水分状况一直受关注,近年的卷次刊有花期干旱条件下粒用高粱杂交种的研究,也有本地树种在水分亏缺下的生理指标分析。
- Plant pathology and biological control hold their own ground, with rhizosphere-adapted Trichoderma strains tested against Fusarium in banana and essential oils tried against bacterial wilt in tomato.植物病理学与生物防治各自占据一席之地,近年刊有根际适应性木霉属菌株用于防治香蕉镰刀菌的试验,以及用精油防治番茄青枯病的尝试。
- Plant physiology and genetics appear through work on cocoa gene families, in vitro callus induction in grapevine rootstocks and the analysis of radiation intercepted by soybean.植物生理与遗传研究通过可可基因家族的分析、葡萄砧木离体愈伤组织的诱导,以及大豆光合有效辐射截获量的估算进入版面。
- Agroforestry enters through crop-forest systems, where soybean yields in integrated, conventional and no-tillage arrangements are compared on sandy soil.农林复合经营经由农林间作系统进入版面,其中沙质土壤上综合、常规与免耕三种配置下的大豆产量被放在一起比较。
- Horticulture covers vegetables and ornamentals alike, from lettuce seed pelleting to the production of ornamental floral stems sized by bulb mass.园艺方面的选题兼顾蔬菜与观赏植物,从莴苣种子的包衣处理,到以球茎重量决定花茎长度的观赏植物生产研究。
- Animal science enters through the reuse of cattle slurry as a nitrogen source in wheat, where ammonia emissions are reduced with dicyandiamide.动物科学经由牛粪浆在小麦上的再利用进入版面,该研究用双氰胺压低了氨挥发。
- Conservation of tropical genetic resources appears as well, with work on the viability, germination and storage of pollen from açaí palms and their bearing on breeding.热带遗传资源的保存同样是版面内容之一,刊有对巴西棕榈花粉活力、萌发与贮存的研究,并讨论其对育种工作的意义。
- Technology is treated as a subject in its own right, with smartphone images used to estimate radiation interception in soybean and machine learning applied to lettuce seed pelleting.技术本身也是被讨论的题目,有人用智能手机照片估算大豆的光能截获,也有人把机器学习用到莴苣种子包衣上。
- Three kinds of paper are accepted. A research article is expected to make an effective contribution, a review article to systematise knowledge, and a scientific note to carry results that cannot wait.该刊接受三类稿件。研究论文预期对科学作出切实贡献,综述负责系统梳理已有知识,科学札记则留给不容久候的成果。
- Special supplements may widen the scope, and the rule that papers must treat agriculture directly is relaxed for them.特刊专号可以放宽范围,日常要求论文直接关联农业的规定在专刊中从宽处理。
History
- The line starts in 1971, when the agricultural school of the university in Goiás issued its yearly proceedings under the title Anais da Escola de Agronomia e Veterinária, and the print number of that series was 0100-218X.这条脉络起于 1971 年,当时戈亚尼亚这所大学的农学院以《农学与兽医学院年报》为名刊行年度文集,该系列的印刷版刊号为 0100-218X。
- The present title came into being in 1999, and the volume numbering has run without a break ever since, so that the volume carrying 2026 is the fifty-sixth.现行刊名自 1999 年启用,此后卷号未曾中断,载有 2026 年内容的卷次已是第五十六卷。
- The title has been published by the Escola de Agronomia of the Universidade Federal de Goiás throughout, and the journal page of the SciELO network names that school as the publication body.该刊一直由戈亚尼亚联邦大学的农学院出版,在 SciELO 平台的刊页上列出的出版机构正是这所学院。
