- LINKAGES: local and Indigenous knowledge for Amazonian grounded (bio)economy, AP.TEM
Abstract
LINKAGES addresses how value-chains of sociobiodiversity products, grounded in local knowledge and produced in forest, agroforestry, and floodplain-lakes, can support local economies and regional transformation towards inclusive and sustainable bioeconomies for the Brazilian Amazon. From local to international markets, sociobiodiversity products represent the largest and most inclusive bi…
- Sustainable citriculture through controlled release of antibacterial compounds from microgel-based formulations, AP.TEM
Abstract
There is a clear need for sustainable methods to combat agricultural pests. Copper salts are widely used in regular agriculture, but also in organic agriculture. One agricultural area where copper salts are used widely is citriculture, to combat citrus canker, a disease caused by the plant pathogen Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri. The disease is endemic in all major orange producing region…
- Pollution is the motor of premature ageing of the kidney, AP.TEM
Abstract
Premature renal ageing is a risk factor for cardio-vascular adverse events, the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and progression towards end stage renal disease (ESRD). ESRD is associated with low quality of life, high morbidity and mortality, and tremendous health care expenses. The incidence of ESRD varies greatly among countries with 6% in The Netherlands compared to 11% in …

- Applying the biotic soil legacy approach to understand positive-negative biota interactions for direct forest restoration from plant-soil communities feedbacks - BioFor, AP.BTA.R
Abstract
Plants and soils are in constant interaction, and net effects of all physical, chemical and biological processes that contribute to these interactions are resulting in a so-called 'plant-soil feedback' that is known to be critical for the restoration of original plant communities and ecosystem properties. The previous land use on sites where the Atlantic Forest is to be restored has alter…
- The contribution of plant-animal interactions to biodiversity and ecosystem restoration of the Atlantic Forest, AP.BTA.R
Abstract
Across the world old-growth forests are rapidly diminishing due to anthropogenic forest conversion. Simultaneously, forest recovery in human-modified landscapes has led to an increase of secondary forests, which may have the potential to mitigate loss of biodiversity and provide important ecosystem services. Human impacts regulate both tree and animal abundances, but in a different way, s…
- Using agricultural waste to combat plant pathogens environmental friendly ways to combat Xanthomonas citri, AP.R
Abstract
Brazil is the major producer of concentrate orange juice, exporting 80% of the juice consumed worldwide. The sweet orange juice industry is constantly threatened by diseases that require the use of toxic metais (e.g. copper) and other defensives to enable profitable production. Reducing the usage of defensives in general is of great importance for a sustainable agriculture. In this propos…

- Evaluation of active compounds against Xanthomonas citri, BP.TT
- Responses to genome aldehyde adducts generating agents of cells from Cockayne Syndrome patients, BP.PD
Abstract
DNA repair systems act on genome integrity maintenance upon exposure to internal and external mutagenic agents. Deficiencies in these systems may lead to premature aging and neurodegeneration in Cockayne syndrome (CS) patients. CS is a recessive autosomal disease caused by mutations mainly in ERCC6 and ERCC8 genes. Both genes codeproteins enrolled on the first step of transcription-couple…

- Identification of SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) markers in genomic regions associated with the regulation of chlorophyll degradation in soybean seeds, BP.PD
Abstract
Soybean breeding programs have as main objectives to select superior genotypes by associating traits of agronomic interest, such as seed and oil quality. It is known that the "green seed problem" has brought serious damage to soybean agricultural areas in the world, particularly due to ongoing climate change. The elimination of this problem becomes increasingly necessary because soy is a …
- Evaluating recruited trees and soil attributes in distinct ecoregions of the Atlantic Forest in São Paulo, Brazil, BP.TT
Abstract
In a previous part of this work (see TT3 proposal #2), we aimed to analyzed trees and soil attributes of forests undergoing secondary succession. The motivation to do this was to understand more about the potential of natural regeneration in different ecoregions within Brazilian Atlantic Forest (BAF), to use its conduction as a method for large-scale forest restoration. It is very importa…
