The objective was to estimate the repeatability coefficient of quantitative traits in multiple harvests of sweet orange, in order to infer the minimum number of evaluations necessary to identify superior genotypes of orange trees through the methodology of mixed models. The experiment w...
The genipap (Genipa americana L.) is a non-endemic species native to Brazil belonging to the family Rubiaceae. It is a species that unites socioeconomic and environmental pillars. The study objective was to establish the induction of indirect somatic embryogenesis in foliar explants of&...
● Integrated grain cropping systems promote soil health (SH) and sustainability. ● Microbial biomass and activity (MBA) and community structure (MCS) are key to SH. ● Integration of maize with Urochloa pastures strongly impacts MBA and MCS. ● MBA is more sensitive than MCS to&...
This work aims to cluster Brazilian municipalities according to their spatiotemporal agricultural diversity pattern. The diversity index has been defined for eight categories and calculated by Shannon’s entropy index from annual (1999-2018) IBGE’s estimates for agricultural production. The proposed cl...
Understanding how fecal glucocorticoid (GC) concentration is associated with reproduction in wild animals allows us to associate physiological stress with the costs of reproduction. Glucocorticoids are among the main stress-related hormones, and their secretion is strongly associated with reproductive ...
