Coffee production faces major challenges associated with increasing global average temperatures and changes in precipitation patterns that directly impact water availability. In Brazil, coffee is one of the most important traded commodities. Estimates from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) indicate that climate change will have adverse effects on global coffee productiv…
Understanding how climate change is affecting plant growth is highly relevant given the potential to improve and increase crop production worldwide. The current collaborative SPRINT proposal will take advantage of already available Kalanchoë pinnata lines transformed with 35S::rolC and 35S::rolB (Danish partners) to investigate the impact of abiotic stresses, i.e. UV-B and drought, on gro…
Mitochondrial transporters are involved in the exchange of metabolites and intermediates between mitochondria and cellular cytoplasm. Due to their known participation in the maintenance of mitochondrial homeostasis and in plant response to environmental stresses, these transporters have attracted interest of plant biologists. The present project will focus on dicarboxylate transporters (D…
Three scientists with complimentary expertise have joined to test the hypothesis that polyphenolics metabolism regulated by post-transcriptional silencing can be modulated by impaired oxidative responses interacting with nutrient availability and fruit de (AU)

Mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCP) are specialized proteins involved in mitochondrial transport, which are able to dissipate the proton electrochemical gradient generated by the respiration in the form of heat. These proteins are part of the mitochondrial anionic carrier family and they play a key role in the maintenance of mitochondrial function, being dependent on fatty acids and s…
Forestry has shown strong indications of establishment on the national economy due to its intense productivity and also the expansion of industry and the pulp and paper market, both in the country and the world. This scenario is consistent with efforts in the search for biotechnological advances for the industry, which highlights research of obtaining genetically enhanced individuals, wit…
The gene encoding TCTP (Translationally Controlled Tumour Protein) is present in all eukaryotes and its product is involved in different cellular processes. Although well characterized in mammals, there are few data available in the literature related to the analysis of this protein in plants. Thus, the aim of this work is the characterization of the gene encoding TCTP in plants, taking t…
