Helvecio was graduate at Agronomist by the Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho in 1989. Concluded his Master's in Science by the Center of Nuclear Energy in Agriculture (CENA) in 1993, and his PhD at Genetics and Molecular Biology by the University of Campinas (UNICAMP) in 2002. Since 2004 his working at Centro de Citricultura Sylvio Moreira (Citrus Research Center) at Cordeirópolis, Sao Paulo, Brazil, from Agronomic Institute (IAC). His research interest is citrus pathogens with focus in biology, diagnosis and population genetics. Researcher ID - http://www.researcherid.com/rid/K-8235-2012 (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The nursery phase is an important step in the citrus industry. For the citrus plant, the rootstock has a significant influence on physiological responses of the canopy such as biotic and abiotic stress, plant architecture, and fruit quality. Rootstocks that impact plant size architecture bring advantages to fruit quality, management, pest inspections, and harvest. However, this kind of ro…
Citrus industry is one of the most important activities of the Brazilian agriculture. São Paulo, Sergipe and Bahia are the main citrus producers, and Brazil is by far the main producer and exporter of frozen concentrated (FCOJ) and not from concentrated (NFC) orange juice in the world. The low Brazilian yield (approximately 2 boxes 40.8 kg/tree/year) is strictly associated to the incidenc…
Earlier restricted to the Americas, the multi-host vector-transmitted bacterium Xylella fastidiosa has now been reported in Europe (southern Italy and France) and Asia (Iran and Taiwan). The devastating impact caused by the outbreak know as Olive Quick Decline syndrome (OQD) associated with X. fastidiosa subsp. pauca in Puglia (southern Italy), the reports of X. fastidiosa subsp. multiple…
The citrus industry contributes with the volume of fruits produced in Brazilian, obtained with high productivity of orchards, a result of the adoption of technologies such as planting density, fertilization and irrigation. However, the incidence of phytosanitary problems that affect citrus farming has caused the increase of fruit production costs, which leads to a decrease in the sector's…

The microbial community in the rhizosphere differs from the soil microbiota because it is influenced by root exudates and soil physicochemical properties. This enables the development of distinct beneficial microorganisms for plants. Among the benefits of this microbiota, the ability to provide nutrients through nitrogen fixation, phosphorus solubilization, and siderophore production stan…
Studies have shown that plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (BPCPs) have brought numerous advantages to plants both in terms of development as weel as on resilience against biotic and abiotic stresses. However, few studies were did in citrus and even less involving the prospection of potential BPCP, mainly looking for strains in environment with organic citrus production. The project aim…

Huanglongbing (HLB or greening) is considered one of the most important citrus diseases in the world. The causative agent of HLB is the Gram-negative bacterium named Candidatus Liberibacter spp. of restricted occurrence to the sieve vessels of the host plant phloem and to the vector insect, Diaphorina citri. Although there are no reports in the literature of the existence of completely re…
