The Laboratory of Genetics and bioEnergy (LGE), Institute of Biology, Unicamp, is reference on genomics, biotechnology, bioinformatics and gene regulation in eukaryotes in Brazil and abroad. Best known for studies on cacao and witche's broom disease interaction (plant-pathogen) and the development of yeast enzymes for second-generation ethanol, LGE seeks solutions for a sustainable agricu…
The ability to accumulate higher levels of sucrose in the stem is unique to sugarcane, an economically important crop and worldwide reference for the bioenergy sector. The process of sucrose accumulation in sugarcane at the molecular level has been extensively studied through the provision of EST database from SUCEST. However, the control of this process is still unclear, especially in re…
