Despite significant advances in the production processes and agricultural controls, insects are still the main competitors of humans for food. As a result of breeding programs for productivity gains, among other characteristics, most agricultural cultivars currently available do not present efficient resistance mechanisms against insects. Therefore, the comparative metabolomic study betwe…
Plants have developed various defense strategies against herbivory such as responses of constitutive and induced defenses, that represents the biosynthesis of phytotoxic molecules present, or produced under attack, respectively. In their turn, the insects have been seeking expertise to overcome the plant defense mechanisms allowing the continued practice of herbivory. One hypothesis is th…
Nature is plentiful of organic compounds of almost all conceivable kinds of chemical structures. Brazilian Cerrado (savannah) biome solely has nearly 160,000 species of plants, animals and fungi, which through its history has been exposed to complex interactions. These interactions have created a complex system of chemical communication intra and inter species, thus constituting a fascina…

Decades ago, agro-chemicals were introduced with the aim of increasing crop yields through controlling pest insects. Due to adaptation and resistance developed by these insects, each year more insecticides are consumed. However, this practice has been causing undesirable effects such as environmental contamination accompanied by the increase in the cost for food production. Pest insects h…
The central aim of this plan of the work of the scientific initiation student is to study of the chemical profile of the extract of endosymbiotic bacteria of Diabrotica speciosa. This plan of the work is a derived subproject from a main project which comes investigating the possibilities of population control of plague insects, for example, D. speciosa, through the biological inhibition a…
The female climacteric period (or peri-menopause) is the transition from fertile to infertile phases. Physiologically, during this time, the plasma estrogen level decreases, meanwhile the levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in the pituitary gland increase. Due to the estrogen secretion step-down, many women can show some typical climacteric symptoms, …

Decades ago, agrochemicals were introduced with the aim of increasing agricultural yields and the control of insects and weeds. Due to the adaptation and resistance developed by these pests, each year greater quantities of pesticide are consumed and/or greater is the need for new protection compounds. However, these practices have caused undesirable effects of environmental contamination.…
