Master's student in Biological Sciences (area: Molecular Genetics and Microorganisms) at the Institute of Biosciences of the Universidade Estadual Paulista - UNESP, Rio Claro campus - SP, in the Laboratory of Ecology and Systematics of Fungi (LESF). She has a scholarship from the São Paulo State Research Foundation (FAPESP). I graduated in Biological Sciences (2024) from the Hermínio Ometto Foundation (FHO) Araras-SP. I am a biologist with an interest in genetics, epigenetics and molecular biology, with an emphasis on transcriptomics and genomics of fungal mutualistic interactions. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The third objective of the Project "The role of asexuality in mutualism stability" is to investigate the role fungus-growing ants have in the epigenetics of their fungal crop. The cultivars of attine ants have shown to grow mushrooms when colonies collapse (Fisher et al., 1994; Mueller, 2002), suggesting that ants suppress basidiome formation. Therefore, if the ants actively suppress fung…
