• Abstract

  In Brazil the culture of sugarcane has expanded to areas with prolonged periods of water shortage, which has limited the production. The best way to avoid this problem is the use of stress-tolerant cultivars. This study aims the analysis of the molecular behavior of plants subjected to different periods of water limitation, and to determine the variables which could be used, independentl…

• Abstract

  The general objective of this project is to undertake massive genome sequencing (whole genomes or ESTs) and annotation of organisms of agronomical or environmental importance in a coordinated manner during two years. The specific objectives are: To generate 1,000,000 reads of acceptable quality during 2 years from multiple projects. To sequence and annotate the genome of Xylella fastidios…

• Abstract

  Extended periods of drought have become more frequent in some regions of Brazil. The expansion of sugarcane production on regions with chronic water scarcity makes sugarcane production limited in these areas. The best way around this problem is to use stress-tolerant cultivars. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the physiological and molecular behavior (RNA-Seq/Illumina) …

• Abstract

  In Brazil the culture of sugarcane has expanded to areas with prolonged periods of water shortage, which has limited the production. The best way to avoid this problem is the use of stress-tolerant cultivars. This study aims the analysis of the molecular behavior of plants subjected to different periods of water limitation, it also expects to generate new knowledge to promote the developm…
