The mission of the Center for Citrus Industry Sustainability (Fapesp-Citrosuco) is to to establish an international research Center, focused on developing innovations and disseminating knowledge about citrus industry. The existence of the Center is justified by the need to integrate efforts to provide innovative answers and solutions to maintain the sustainability of the juice industry in…
The National Institutes of Science and Technology Program (INCT), which was launched in July 2008 by the Ministry of Science and Technology - CNPq, with the collaboration of FAPESP, recruited scientists to work in networks in research areas that are strategic to the sustainable development of the country. Thus, the UFSCar aggregated in networks the best research groups in chemical ecologi…
New solutions for managing insect pests are urgently needed due to evolution of resistance to current insecticides. Insect pests cause annual losses of US$17.7 billion to the Brazilian economy. Our project focuses on development and bioactivity testing of nanotech and metallic coordination complexes as novel delivery mechanisms for bioactive phytochemicals, to provide new options for cro…
Prof. Schneider is a specialist in biosynthesis of natural products, especially in the phenylphenalenones and coumarins. We recently initiated coumarin biosynthesis studies and the results are facilitating new work on the activation of prenyltransferase protein expression in Citrus, aiming to increase plant xanthine levels in particular and thus increase resistance against plant pathogens…
The Brazilian import of pesticides hit a record high in 2015 and 2016. Pesticides are the second most important item in the import account of agricultural sector, behind only fertiliser. This information demonstrated the great need for a program for the minor use of pesticides. This proposal intends to respond to these needs, which are classified as strategic in the public policy of the F…

In this study, we investigate gummosis, a disease that affects citrus plantations worldwide, caused by the pathogen Phytophthora citrophthora. Despite its relevance, knowledge about defense mechanisms in citrus plants is limited. To address this gap, we employ an advanced approach that combines mass spectrometry and metabolomics to analyze changes in the chemical profile in response to P.…
Huanglongbing is the most destructive citrus disease at present. In Brazil, it is associated with Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus and Ca. L. americanus, which colonize the phloem causing gradual leaf and fruit drop and plant decline. Here. L. asiaticus is the most aggressive and widespread in citrus regions. The study of C. sinensis grafted onto C. limonia cv. Pears with and without HLB…
The "communicate science" project, promoted by the São Paulo Research Foundation - FAPESP, has as general objective the dissemination of scientific works to the public, through the creation of media. When presenting the proposal, FAPESP cited the National Institute of Science and Technology - INCT, as that from Federal University of São Carlos - UFSCar, with process 2014/50918-7: INCT: FO…

The Stage 2 (BBSRC-FAPESP) project will use the collaboration established in Stage 1 to move towards generating new commercially viable phytochemical treatments. Experimental work will focus on three main areas: 1) Development and optimisation of phytochemical delivery using nanoformulation and complexing techniques. Treatments will be scaled up from leaf discs to whole plants with detail…

Citrus black spot (CBS) caused by fungus Phyllosticta citricarpa is responsible for large losses in several citrus growing regions worldwide. Like other agricultural plants the use of fungicides is the main CBS management strategy. Due to the toxicological and environmental problems with fungicides, growers and researchers began to consider the use of alternative methods in combat disease…
New solutions for managing insect pests are urgently needed due to evolution of resistance to current insecticides. This project focuses on development and bioactivity testing of novel nanotech formulations of plant secondary metabolites that can provide new options for crop protection. Preliminary experiments done by the Keele University (KU) group with PAA (poly(allylamine)) nanotech fo…
