• Abstract

  In order to obtain a sustainable agriculture, totally or partially reducing the use of mineral fertilizers, several studies have been conducted addressing the association of plants-microorganisms with the purpose of promoting plant development. In this context, plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) have been isolated from the rhizospheric or endophytic region of plants and used as inocul…

• Abstract

  Burkholderia rhizobacteria may contribute to growth promotion of different crops. This is due to the ability that some bacterial strains have to produce phytohormones, siderophores and nitrogen fixation among other properties. Such processes increase the ability of some species of Burkholderia to be used as bio-fertlizers as a sustainable alternative to the use of chemical fertilizers. Bu…

• Abstract

  Scientific divulgation of research conducted in the universities still occurs in a limited way, however, there is interest of the society on science and technology matters and there is a need to justify investments in the sector, which highlights the importance of producing this type of material. In this way, the present project aims to disseminate the research and results obtained in the…

• Abstract

  In mangrove ecossystems, chitin is one of the major organic components, largely due to the great presence of crustaceans in these areas. The chitin cicle is important as nutrient source to the mangrove fauna and flora. Among bacteria, chitinases represent diverse functions, primarily acting in the enzymatic digestion of GlcNAC monomers, thus, increasing nitrogen and carbon availability. T…

• Abstract

  The mangrove ecosystem is a coastal biome, located in the interface between the land and the sea, being characterized by the tidal regime, which confer unique characteristic to this system. The mangroves have high amounts of organic matter accumulated, such as cellulose, released in mangroves from plants, and chitin, from the decomposition of crustaceous. The main via for the nutrient cyc…

  DETECTION AND ANNOTATION OF CHITINASES IN METAGENOMICS LIBRARIES FROM MANGROVE LOCATED IN THE STATE OF SÃO PAULOThe Mangrove ecosystem is a costal tropical biome, located in the transition zone between land and sea, and it is characterized by periodic floods, which give unique characteristics and specific to this system. The mangroves have a lot of accumulated organic matter such as chiti…
