    The sour passion fruit (Passiflora edulis Sims) is a tropical fruit crop with wide adaptability, belonging to the family Passifloraceae, genus Passiflora, and species Passiflora edulis Sims. Brazil is the global leader in both production and consumption of passion fruit. Despite the economic and social relevance of this crop, especially for small- and medium-scale growers, the national average yield is still considered low, mainly due to the lack of cultivars adapted to the diverse edaphoclimatic conditions of the country and to major diseases affecting the crop, such as Cowpea aphid-borne mosaic virus (CABMV) and Fusarium spp. In this context, the genetic improvement of sour passion fruit represents a key strategy to overcome these limitations and enhance the sustainability of the production chain. The objective of this study was to evaluate the agronomic performance and physical fruit traits of sour passion fruit progenies (Passiflora edulis Sims), aiming to identify promising materials for fresh consumption that meet market demands for both quality and yield, thereby contributing to the breeding program of the Universidade Estadual de Goiás (UEG). The experiment was conducted in the municipality of Palmeiras de Goiás, GO, using a vertical trellis system, under a randomized complete block design (RCBD), with 27 treatments (17 UEG progenies and 10 commercial cultivars) and three replications (blocks). Each experimental plot consisted of three plants, and six fruits were evaluated per plant, totaling 18 fruits per plot. The UEG progênies were numbered from 1 to 17, while the commercial cultivars were identified by their respective designations. The following fruit-related traits were evaluated: equatorial fruit diameter (EFD); longitudinal fruit diameter (LFD); fruit mass (FM); pulp mass (PM); peel thickness (PT); total soluble solids content (TSS); number of fruits per plant (NF); and fruit yield per plant (PROD). The results showed that progenies UEG 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 17 exhibited higher means for LFD, EFD, FM, and PM compared to most commercial cultivars, and were statistically similar to F200 Yellow Master, BRS Sol do Cerrado, and Redondo Amarelo. Regarding PT, progenies UEG 1, 5, 7, 11, 12, 13, 15, and 17 presented the lowest values, statistically similar to all commercial cultivars except F300 Araguari and the Acesso de Nossa Senhora do Livramento-BA. For NF and PROD, progenies UEG 11, 12, 13, 14, and 17 stood out, showing a higher number of fruits and, consequently, greater fruit yield per plant, outperforming most commercial cultivars. These findings indicate significant future potential for these progenies within the breeding program. Therefore, the present study demonstrates substantial genetic variability among the evaluated progenies. Progenies UEG 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 17 obtained the best averages for all morpho-agronomic traits and should be prioritized for continuity in UEG’s passion fruit breeding program, being incorporated into the recombination block within the recurrent selection scheme.

    This dissertation investigates the possibilities of articulating children's and young adult literature with the theoretical and methodological assumptions of Science, Technology, Society, and Environment Education (STSE), aiming to understand how this articulation contributes to addressing food education in Science Education. The study is based on the understanding that food extends beyond its biological dimension and encompasses scientific, social, cultural, economic, political, and environmental dimensions, thus requiring pedagogical practices committed to the critical education of students. This qualitative applied research was grounded in bibliographic and documentary research and employed the Focus Group strategy to validate the Educational Product. The research followed four complementary stages. First, we mapped the studies presented at the National Meeting on Research in Science Education (ENPEC) in the 2019, 2021, and 2023 editions concerning STS/STSE Education and teacher education. Next, we analyzed studies on food education in Early Childhood Education and the early years of Elementary School in order to identify challenges and possibilities for addressing this topic in the school context. Subsequently, we investigated children's literature related to food from the collection of a municipal public school library and developed pedagogical proposals based on the STSE approach. As the culmination of this process, we developed and validated an Educational Product consisting of the pedagogical collection The Pequi Girl, composed of the children's and young adult literary book The Pequi Girl: A Story of Hunger, Dreams, and Hope in the Brazilian Cerrado and the Pedagogical Guide for Science Education with Suggested STSE Activities. The literary work is intended for students from the fourth year of Elementary School onward and may also be used in the final years of Elementary School, High School, and Youth and Adult Education (YAE), while the guide is intended for Basic Education teachers and provides possibilities for reading mediation and the development of pedagogical activities. The Educational Product was validated with students from the first STSE Education course offered by the Graduate Program in Science Education at the State University of Goiás. The findings indicate that the articulation between children's and young adult literature, food education, and STSE Education broadens the possibilities for addressing food in Science Education, encourages the discussion of socially relevant issues, and supports the development of pedagogical practices committed to students' critical education. As a result of this research, we present an Educational Product consisting of a pedagogical collection that articulates children's and young adult literature, Science Education, and STSE Education, providing support for teaching practice and encouraging reflections on food, food culture, food insecurity, sustainability, citizenship, and the human right to adequate food.

    Fungi of the genus Trichoderma stand out for their broad tolerance to environmental conditions and their relevance in agricultural applications, especially in the biocontrol of phytopathogens and in plant growth promotion. Among the physical factors influencing their development, temperature and light play a decisive role in conidial germination and population maintenance in the soil. This study aimed to evaluate the adaptability of Trichoderma sp. by estimating soil population density and conidial germination under different thermal and light regimes. Soil samples were collected at the Universidade Estadual de Goiás, Ipameri Campus, in an area free from previous applications of fungi or biological products. Inoculum densities were estimated before and after the application of the commercial strain T. harzianum IBLF 006 at temperatures of 16, 20, 24, 28, and 32°C, and conidial germination and germ tube growth of the strain Trichoderma sp. T-18-24 were evaluated under constant light and complete darkness at the same temperatures. The propagule density in the soil exhibited a negative polynomial behavior with temperature, with maximum estimated values at 22.5°C for soil inoculated with T. harzianum IBLF 006 and 23.4°C for non-inoculated soil, both decreasing significantly above 28°C, indicating reduced inoculum persistence at higher temperatures. Conidial germination of strain T-18-24 began between 8.0 and 17.5 h after incubation, predominantly unipolar. Higher temperatures anticipated germ tube emission but limited its subsequent growth. Linear and polynomial models adjusted for germ tube growth were statistically significant (P < 0.05) with high determination coefficients (R² = 0.73–0.99), demonstrating the strong influence of temperature. Under constant light, 24°C and 28°C sustained growth up to the fifth hour, whereas at 32°C a significant reduction occurred. In darkness, 24°C and 28°C also promoted superior growth, indicating this range as the optimal physiological zone of the strain. Light modulated germ tube growth according to temperature, enhancing development at 20°C and 32°C, inhibiting it at 16°C, and maintaining the highest growth between 24°C and 28°C. Light did not interfere with the onset of germination at higher temperatures.

    This dissertation analyzes the contributions of creating and investigating Interactive Comic Books as a playful and educational tool aimed at Scientific Literacy in Chemistry teaching, with an emphasis on the theme of Environmental Chemistry. The study is qualitative in nature and interpretive in character and was developed with high school students from a public school in Anápolis. The comic book, entitled "The Last Hope – The Path to Reconstruction," conceived by the researcher, presents a narrative and interactive structure, favoring decision-making by students based on contextualized environmental dilemmas involving the impacts of human action on the Araguaia River. Data collection was carried out through participant observation and field diary entries, in addition to examining the students' original productions. The analysis was based on the levels of scientific literacy proposed by Oliveira (2021), which made it possible to identify expressions based on intuitive perceptions and everyday language, as well as attempts at conceptual systematization and interdisciplinary articulation. The results revealed that, in the initial decision-making phase, there was a predominance of statements at the primary level, marked by subjective, affective justifications or those based on practical criteria of the narrative. However, as they progressed through the plot and encountered complex dilemmas such as solid waste management (landfill versus composting), the students demonstrated a relevant cognitive inflection point, migrating to the formative level. At this stage, they began to adequately mobilize essential chemical-environmental vocabulary (such as soil contamination, acidity, and sustainability) and to outline causal explanations. A transition to the meaningful level was also observed when the subjects extrapolated from fiction, applying the concepts to real problems in their daily lives. The phenomenon of personification and spontaneous sound production during digital reading emerged as indicators of narrative immersion and subjective engagement. Furthermore, the analysis of the comic strip created by the students themselves showed that the graphic and textual elements functioned as fundamental cognitive bridges, materializing abstract concepts (such as pH neutralization, saponification, decantation, and the use of soda ash and hydrated lime) into visual instruments of social intervention. It is concluded that the Interactive Comic Strip has established itself as a viable educational product for teaching Chemistry. The material went beyond the mere mechanical decoding of formulas, acting as a semiotic mediator capable of expanding students' speaking space, stimulating argumentation, and building the gradual and critical development of scientific literacy.
