This project aims to acquire the Tecan Infinite 200 Pro multimode plate reader, which measures UV and visible absorbance, fluorescence and luminescence. The instrument supports 96 and 384-well plates. (AU)
Agriculture is one of the main bases of Brazil's economy, and the country has unique genetic resources that confer an enormous scientific potential that still needs to be explored. Plant diseases caused by microorganisms are among the major problems in agriculture. Like animals, plants have an innate immune system that recognizes and responds to molecules typical of microbes in order to l…
Soybean (Glycine max (L.) is the fourth most consumed and produced grain in the world, with Brazil being the largest producer and exporter. Therefore, there is a constant search for ways to help farmers deal with fungal diseases, such as Asian soybean rust, anthracnose, charcoal root rot, red root rot and white mold. Currently, management is mostly done through the use of chemical fungici…
In nature, plants are continually exposed to a wide variety of pathogenic microorganisms. Yet, few are able to successfully colonize plant tissues and, consequently, cause disease. Even those microorganisms that are devastating to one plant species are often avirulent in others. Thus, most plants are naturally resistant to most pathogens. This phenomenon, known as non-host resistance, def…
Like animals, plants harbor complex microbial communities on the surface and inside of their tissues. Many of these microorganisms can bring benefits to the host plant, even contributing to the protection against pathogens. The plant microbiome is an emerging field of study and forms an important frontier in our knowledge of interactions between plants and microorganisms. Notably, little …

Genetic manipulation tools are essential for the study of gene function in anyorganism. In plants, multiple strategies can be adopted for gene inactivation, includingchemical mutagenesis, insertion of T-DNAs or transposons and site-directed mutagenesis by CRISPR/Cas9, ZFNs or TALENs. However, the generation of large-scale mutant populations and the identification of mutants of interest is…
