The ongoing collection effort has resulted in a total of 173 accessions of A. pintoi and 45 of A. repens, and a Forage Arachis Genebank has been established in the Amazon region with the aim of developing new options to increase the sustainability and quality of gras...
No presente estudo os mecanismos de resistência desse porta-enxerto e o ciclo de vida do nematoide na cultivar comercial Paluma, usada como padrão de suscetibilidade, foram documentados. Para o estudo histopatológico dois métodos clássicos, de coloração de nematoides com fucsina ácida e ...
Este estudo investigou os efeitos in vitro e in vivo de nanopartículas de cobre (CuNPs), sintetizadas com extratos aquosos de castanha de caju (Anacardium occidentale L.) provenientes de diferentes acessos do BAG Caju da Embrapa, no manejo de Pratylenchus zeae, nematoide de importância&...
In recent years, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have garnered significant attention due to their potent antimicrobial properties, which hold promise for various applications. However, concerns about their potential toxicity have also emerged, particularly regarding their impact on human and animal healt...
This study aimed to develop liposomes derived from lipids obtained from red blood cell membranes for potential use in antitumor applications. Hemoglobin hydrolysates exhibiting peptides with known antitumor activities were encapsulated within these liposomes. Methods: The developed liposomal systems w...
Insects use chemical compounds for communication, and sex pheromone is one of the most important signals used by males and females to find each other for mating purposes. The corn leafhopper, Dalbulus maidis, is an insect vector that transmits pathogens causing diseases in maize&#x...
The allotetraploid legume peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) has low genetic diversity due to the single origin and ploidy barrier with its wild relatives, which are mostly diploid. This lack of genetic diversity hinders breeding and genetic gains. Wild peanut relatives harbor known resistanc...
Power line electrocution is a major threat to bird conservation, particularly for some endangered species. While various mitigation measures have been developed to reduce electrocutions, there is limited information on how to prioritize their implementation for maximum cost-effectiveness. This gap...
By 2023, deforestation in the Cerrado biome surpassed 50% of its original area, primarily due to the conversion of native vegetation to pasture and agricultural land. In addition to anthropogenic pressure, climate change has intensified hydrological stress by reducing precipitation and decre...
Background: Bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum), a key cultivated grass worldwide, includes both sexual diploid and apomictic tetraploid cytotypes. Finding new diploid populations is crucial for the species’ genetic improvement and conservation. Objectives: We aimed to determine the ploidy levels of 168...
