I am an Agronomist Engineer who graduated from the State University of North Paraná (Uenp) Luiz Meneghel campus. I hold an Academic Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees from the Postgraduate Program in Biological Sciences (Botany) with a concentration on Plant Physiology and Biochemistry. I obtained these degrees from the Institute of Biosciences (IB) at São Paulo State University "Júlio de Mesquita Filho" (Unesp) Botucatu campus. I also spent a sandwich period at Agrifood Research and Technology Centre of Aragón (CITA) in the City of Zaragoza/Aragón, Spain.I have a Post-doctorate from the Botucatu Campus Institute of Biosciences (IB), which is part of the São Paulo State University (Unesp) Botucatu Campus. Currently, I work as a Professor at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) Lagoa do Sino campus (city of Buri/São Paulo, Brazil). I teach in Agronomic Engineering (Sustainable Family Farming Training Line) and Biological Sciences (Biology Training Line) Conservation.My area of expertise is Botany and Agrarian Sciences, with a focus on Plant Physiology. I have conducted research on the physiology and biochemistry of grafted plants, plant mineral nutrition, and leaf gas exchange. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The anthropogenic activities intensification related to industrialization and agriculture have been increasing environmental pollution by cadmium (Cd), non-essential heavy metal to plant metabolism and Cd accumulation by plants, which can inhibit biochemical processes like photosynthesis, nutrient uptake and increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The literature reports…
The heavy metals Chrom and Zinc, essential and not essential, respectively, can be found in natural areas or as contaminants in growing areas and can result in direct losses in the food production and deleterious effects on vegetative propagation. The cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) is a vegetable crop cultivated using grafting technique, and such technique provides to the crop characterist…
The propagation of passion fruit (Passiflora edulis Sims.) it is very important for brazilian fruit-growing, since this is a fruit species has high economic demand in the national and international scenario, therefore, it is necessary to overcome nutritional levels required by the species, in order to obtain healthy plants during the of nursery seedlings formation to orchard post-plantin…

Nowdays, the abiotic stress is one of the most important limitation to agricultural production and food security. To avoid the environmental stress, through the prism of an integrated and ecologic management of cultivation, is the use of grafting plants, as an acclimation strategy. In the cultivation of pepper, crop of great economic importance in Spain, the lower adhesion is due to the a…
Grafting is effectively used for the cultivation of commercial fruit species, since it is necessary to ensure the genetic characteristics of producing species with the use of selected clones. Furthermore, the use of rootstocks resistant to soil pathogens is important when working with species susceptible such atemoya. However, despite that the graft is a common and widespread technique, t…
