Abstract
Soybean (Glycine max L.) is one of the main agricultural commodities in Brazil as a source of vegetal oil and protein. In the last years, soybean production has been highly attacked by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci, that is a pest and vector of important viruses such as the Carlavirus Cowpea Mild Mottle Virus (CPMMV), causal agent of the soybean stem necrosis, diseased reported in Brazil in…

Abstract
Knowledge of the interaction of factors affecting the germination of weed seeds helps to understand the population dynamics of a species in a region. The research project will be executed at the Center for Agricultural Sciences / UFSCar and will aim to determine the germination behavior of Merremia aygptia (L.) Urban, Ipomoea purpurea (L.) Roth (Convolvulaceae) and Luffa aegyptiaca Miller…
