Abstract
Global climate change poses a major threat to agricultural production and food security worldwide and, especially, in the tropics. This postdoctoral scholarship project proposal aims to use the transformation of corn and Arabidopsis thaliana to assess the function of genes associated with abiotic stresses. The project involves everything from the optimization of transformation protocols u…
Genetic transformation of maize and Arabidopsis thaliana for functional evaluation of genes for tolerance to abiotic stresses, BP.PD
Abstract
The Brazilian citrus agribusiness accounts for an annual turnover of 1.5 billion dollars, with exports of concentrated juice and orange byproducts (pectin, oil, food). However, factors such as the presence of agricultural pests and diseases that prevent Brazilian productivity are higher. Among these diseases, citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC), caused by the bacterium Xylella fastidiosa, c…

Abstract
The Brazilian citrus industry represents a important trade, responsible for global leadership in the market for frozen concentrated orange juice and not concentrate as well. Besides these products Brazil still exports by-products of orange (feed, pectin, oil), which corresponds to a total of 1.5 billion per year. However, Brazilian productivity is low, mainly because the incidence of pest…
