Knowledge about the edaphic acarofauna in the different Brazilian biomes is incipient. Studies of this sort have just not been conducted in extensive areas of the country, especially in regard to mites from areas of agricultural interest, such as soybean, corn and sugarcane plantations. One of the most common groups of edaphic mites is the order Mesostigmata. These are known for their p...
Huanglongbing (HLB) is the major threat to the citriculture worldwide. The fast and efficient dissemination of the HLB associated bacteria, Candidatus Liberibacter spp., by its psyllid vector Diaphorina citri and the absence of genetic resistance in citrus, are major factors accounting for disease severity. The development of varieties with good agronomic performance and resistance to d...
This proposal seeks to address major concerns relating to economically important insect pests in Brazilian agricultural, through the development and use of novel, efficacious and safe biopesticides. One of the target insect pests selected for study is the native, polyphagous armyworm Spodoptera fugiperda, which has evolved resistance to a number of chemistries and the transgenic tools c...
Insects are well known organisms by their abundance and correspond to more than half of the biological diversity in Earth. The species richness and the diversity of modes of life of insects are a result of a series of adaptations during their evolutionary history, but the diversification in their life histories were quite influenced by their association with symbiotic microorganism. Ins...
During their evolution insects acquired a number of defensive strategies as their co-evolved with their natural enemies, which included morphological, behavioral and/or physiological adaptations. Moreover, insects also gained new features by associating with microbial symbionts. Many studies focused on the understanding of the immune response pathways of insects to natural enemies, but ...
The difficulties in managing the citrus greening require the development of alternative technologies for controlling this disease. In this project we aim to identify and characterize essential metabolic pathways in the process of host- pathogen interaction, which favor the processes of invasion, infection and multiplication of Liberibacter asiaticus in its vector Diaphorina citri. The i...
RNAi technology has a great potential in applied pest control and therefore be integrated to the other control tactics in sustainable pest management strategies. The potential use of RNAi in pest management is due to its specificity, low risks to produce side-effects on non-target organisms and do not cause undesirable effects to humans and the environment. Although RNAi is a common mec...
The gut microbiota is an important contributing factor to several aspects of their host's physiology. In insects, symbiotic microorganisms can play important roles in host plant adaptation and speciation, for example. Spodoptera frugiperda, an important agricultural pest of several crops, currently has two well-established strains, which differ at genetic level and utilization of host p...
All organisms that settle interspecific pathological interactions develop defense mechanisms against pathogenic micro or macrorganism. In spite of the knowledge on the immunological responses of insects to naturals enemies, few studies are dedicated to establish the molecular bases involved in this process, as well as the heritability of such traits and the potential of their fixation i...
The continuous pressure on food production due to population growth and awareness of the need to practice ecologically safe methods of food production will require the development of new insecticides that allow the practice of sustainable agriculture. This fact highlights the importance of exploitation of new niches with potential for production of bioactive natural molecules that can b...

Microorganisms present the ability to produce numerous biologically active compounds of proven value to human and veterinary medicine and agriculture. The use of microorganisms isolated in unexplored niches stands out as a promising strategy for the identification of new metabolites. One of such niches is represented by insect-associated bacterial symbionts. Due to difficulties in the i...
Bacterial symbionts are broadly distributed among insects, which may have their biology and ecology affected by interactions with symbionts. Buchnera aphidicola is a primary aphid symbiont that impacts host metabolism by providing essential amino acids that are not produced by the host nor are acquired from the diet. Facultative symbionts are also expected to modify host proteins and me...
