Universidade de São Paulo (USP). Centro de Energia Nuclear na Agricultura (CENA) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Postdoctoral researcher (FAPESP) at the Center for Nuclear Energy in Agriculture (CENA), University of São Paulo (USP) (2023present). Holds a Masters and Ph.D. degree in Biological Sciences (Plant Biology) from the Institute of Biosciences, São Paulo State University Júlio de Mesquita Filho (UNESP). Earned a Bachelor's degree in Biotechnology with an Environmental emphasis from the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) in December 2015. During the Ph.D., completed a research internship at the Swiss Federal Research Institute (WSL) in Birmensdorf, Switzerland, in 2022. Served as a lecturer in the undergraduate program in Biological Sciences at UNESP from August to December 2018. From 2013 to 2015, engaged in Scientific Initiation at the Institute of Biosciences (UNESP), developing three research projects in Plant Physiology. In 2015, undertook an internship at the School of Biological Sciences, Washington State University (Pullman, WA, USA), participating in the design, execution, and data analysis of a research project in Plant Physiology. Completed an internship in the Sugarcane Breeding Program (PMGCA/RIDESA) at the Department of Biotechnology and Animal and Plant Production, UFSCar, in 2014. Between 2013 and 2014, participated in the Junior Enterprise for Sustainability in Biotechnology (Sustec Jr. UFSCar), working in the Legal and Financial Department. In 2014, contributed as a volunteer in outreach activities promoted by UFSCar. Reviewer for scientific journals such as Environmental and Experimental Botany, Plant and Soil, Theoretical and Experimental Plant Physiology, and Scientia Agricola. Supervisor of undergraduate theses and Scientific Initiation projects funded by FAPESP. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Aluminum (Al) is toxic to most plants, especially in acidic soils, where it inhibits root growth and the uptake of water and nutrients. In addition to causing mechanical damage to the root system, Al disrupts the balance of the hormones auxin (Aux) and ethylene, inhibiting cell division and elongation in the roots. On the other hand, some species tolerate Al by exuding organic acids from …
The most evident symptom of aluminum (Al) toxicity is the inhibition of root growth, which can be accompanied by anatomical damage to the xylem, reduced hydraulic conductivity of the roots (Lpr), increased lipid peroxidation, and suppression of aquaporin genes (AQPs). Furthermore, Al toxicity causes a reduction in stomatal conductance (gs), relative water content (RWC), and leaf water pot…
The first and most evident symptom of aluminum (Al) toxicity is the decrease in root growth, which can occur in a matter of hours. In addition, Al may cause decreased shoot growth and reduced gas exchange and photochemical reactions. Most of the studies try to show that damage caused by Al in the aerial part is of indirect character (long-distance) due to the water deficiency, consequence…
Edaphic aluminum (Al) decreases the growth of most plants cultivated in acidic soils. However, some woody species from the Cerrado vegetation accumulate Al in leaves without apparent damage to their metabolism. The reasons why these plants are not sensitive to Al in acidic soils are still unknown. The exudation of organic acids (OAs) from root tips seems to be one of the major Al resistan…
It has been suggested that the low stomatal conductance (gs) caused by aluminum(Al) exposure is explained by the Al-induced root growth inhibition that would causereduced water uptake. Nevertheless, in the last years, studies have evidenced that it canbe, actually, explained by multifactor effects. Recent studies have shown increase inabscisic acid (ABA) concomitant to reduction in gs in …
