A pitaia (Hylocereus spp.) tem se destacado como uma cultura frutífera promissora no Brasil, com significativa expansão nas regiões Norte e Nordeste. No entanto, o aumento da produção tem sido acompanhado pelo surgimento de doenças, sendo o cancro da haste a principal delas, com&#x...
Wheat stripe mosaic virus (WhSMV, Benyviridae), transmitted by Polymyxa graminis, is the causal agent of the soil-borne wheat mosaic disease in Brazil. By using RNA-Seq, the present study performed a comparative transcriptome analysis between susceptible and resistant wheat cultivars in response&...
Abstract Wheat is one of the most important cereals grown in the world, and in Brazil, increasing national production is still a challenge. Nitrogen (N) supply can favor grain yield and the physiological quality of wheat seeds. However, the definition of adequate N rate and&#x...
Optimization of seed density range, combined with the use of quality seeds may help generate more profit from wheat production, as these factors affect grain yield and the quality of seeds. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of initial vigor level and ...
The objective of this work was to assess the reproductive phenology and thermal requirements of two dragon fruit species grown under the climate conditions of northern Amazon. The experiment was carried out in the municipality of Boa Vista, Roraima, Brazil, during two production cy...
A pupunheira (Bactris gasipaes Kunth) é uma palmeira nativa da Amazônia, cultivada principalmente para a produção de frutos e palmito. Seu cultivo é exigente quanto à temperatura, umidade e propriedades físicas do solo. Atualmente sua produção é realizada via seminal, resultando em grande&#x...
The peach palm (Bactris gasipaes Kunth) is a palm tree native to the Amazon, mainly cultivated for fruit, oil, and the heart of palm production. Rescuing vigorous plants is crucial to reproducing individuals with high productive potential. The shoots at the base of the mother&...
The common issue of water contamination by pharmaceuticals are increasingly recognised as emerging contaminants in water as they pose significant environmental and health risks, necessitating innovative and sustainable approaches to water treatment. Activated biochar represents an effective solution for&#x...
Soils are home to more than half of all terrestrial biodiversity (Anthony et al., 2023) and form the living foundation of terrestrial eco- systems (Wagg et al., 2014). Yet, soil biodiversity remains underrepre- sented in national biodiversity strategies, conservation targets, and monitoring&...
