Graduate in Biological Sciences - L.P., at Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul (2000), MSc. in Physiology and Plant Biochemistry at the University of São Paulo (2003), PhD in Plant Biology (Plant Physiology) at the State University of Campinas (2007) and 'Livre Docente' in Plant Physiology Physiology at Universidade Estadual Paulista - UNESP ( 2018). She is currently an Adjunct Professor at Unesp / Ilha Solteira, where she leads the research group in Phytoremediation, working mainly on the following topics: Nitrogen metabolism, focusing on the tolerance of the symbiotic system to the presence of mineral nitrogen; Growth, tolerance and potential of tropical legume use in phytoremediation of soils contaminated with Mn, B, Cu, Fe and Pb; Plant responses to abiotic stresses, focusing on species of the Cerrado biome.She is one of the responsible for the implementation of the Nucleus of Support and Discussion of Gender and Sexuality - NUGENS, focused on the themes of deconstruction of gender stereotypes and prevention of gender violence, developing teaching and extension projects aimed at combating physical violence and psychological as a result of gender and sexuality; and the valorization of female protagonism in order to motivate girls and women to become involved with the sciences, breaking with stereotypes resulting from the structural machismo of our society.

The present proposal aims to evaluate the tolerance and phytoremediation potential of native legume species, with herbaceous and arboreal habits, and cultivated species, from different botanical families, all previously characterized as tolerant to one or more potentially toxic elements: Canavalia ensiformis, Cajanus cajan, Leucaena leucocephala, cotton and sorghum. Conditions of soil con…
The present proposal aims to evaluate the tolerance and phytoremediation potential of two tropical herbaceous leguminous plants (Calopogonium mucunoides and Stizolobium aterrimum) and, in addition, to evaluate the maximum tolerance level of tree legumes to these same pollutants (Inga fagilofia, Inga uruguensis and Lanchocarpus muehlbergianus) in soil conditions contaminated by copper, bor…
This proposal aims to evaluate the tolerance and phytoremediation potential of some leguminous trees (Inga fagilofia, Inga uruguensis and Lonchocarpus muehlbergianus) in soil conditions contaminated by heavy metal lead (Pb). The proposed approach uses characterization of maximum tolerated doses per plant, cellular localization element and subsequent combination of the use of a tolerant pl…
The Brazilian soybean production dispenses entirely nitrogen, nitrogen compounds all of this plant comes from the symbiotic association, making the product highly competitive Brazilian. Conversely, glyphosate can affect biological nitrogen fixation due to reducing the nickel content, this being essential micronutrient for the symbiotic microorganisms, while the glyphosate can also influen…

B plays a role in structuring the cell wall, stimulates reproductive tissues and acts in the synthesis of antioxidant compounds. The problem arises when the element is bioavailable in large concentrations to the plants, which can cause late emergence, decrease in stem height and poorly developed root system, in many cases the only alternative is the cultivation of species tolerant to that…
Soil contamination by heavy metals is an object of growing worldwide concern and has gradually increased due to human activities, such as inadequate agricultural practices, the increase in the number of industries, among others. Leguminous plants have characteristics that help degraded soils, because, among other characteristics, they can fix nitrogen from the atmosphere, increasing soil …
The concentration of heavy metals in the soil has been afflicting society for a long time and has gradually increased due to human activities, such as inappropriate agricultural practices, the increase in the number of industries, among others. Leguminous plants have characteristics that help degraded soils, as, among other characteristics, they can fix nitrogen in the atmosphere, increas…
