This proposal aims to support the Sampa+Rural Program, of the Municipal Secretariat for Economic Development and Labor of the city of São Paulo (SMDET), which aims to foster the development and improve economic and environmental sustainability of urban and peri-urban agriculture in the city of São Paulo. The project intends to contribute to the generation of knowledge, technologies and tr…
Instituto Biológico (IB) is a research center coordinated by the São Paulo Agribusiness Technology Agency (APTA), the Secretariat of Agriculture and Supply of the State of São Paulo (SAA) and its mission is to "Develop and transfer scientific and technological knowledge for the agricultural business in the areas of animal and plant health, its relations with the environment, aiming at imp…
The complete sequencing of the Pierce's Disease (PD) strain of X. fastidiosa will eventually show all the differences between its genome and the genome of the Citrus Variegated Chlorosis (CVC) strain. Nevertheless, having in advance some information about what and where are these differences in the bacterial chromosome can help in the sequencing strategy and in the assembling of the reads…
The proposed project aims the elucidation of the role of an endo-polygalacturonase gene that has been found in the genome of X. fastidiosa, in the pathogenicity of this bacterium. Results from studies on polygalacturonases from Ralstonia solanacearum, that shares with X. fastidiosa the ability to colonize xylem vessels, showed that these enzymes are important factors for infection of the …
In the PPPP-FAPESP project "Research and Extension Support from the Department of Agriculture and Supply to the Sampa+Rural Program to promote urban and peri-urban agriculture in the city of São Paulo", several needs of urban and peri-urban farmers were identified, each with a research proposal to solve them. The postdoctoral fellow to be selected must work on the themes "Biological input…
Biological invasions are influenced and influence global changes and can affect the functioning of ecosystems, as well as threaten food security. The occurrence of such invasions is likely to increase dramatically, thus creating an urgent demand to better understand the underlying evolutionary aspects, such as biological mechanisms, which can contribute to the success and impact of an inv…
The root-knot nematodes, Meloidogyne spp., are among the main causal agents of diseases that affect Brazilian coffee (Carneiro et al. 2005; Salgado and Terra, 2021). Among the most frequent species, M. paranaensis stands out, due to its high aggressiveness and expanding occurrence in the main coffee producing regions of the country (Salgado et al., 2011; Oliveira & Rosa, 2018). Due to the…
Fungi of the genus Trichoderma are outstanding agents of biological control due to the various mechanisms of action (antagonism, production of antimicrobial substances, parasitism and colonization capacity) as well as their symbiotic relationship with plant species. In view of this, there has been an increase in the study of its biology and its management within the agricultural system, a…
