1. Capitulum and floret phenology in Baccharis aliena (Asteraceae, Astereae)
Abstract Inflorescence and floral phenological studies are a source of valuable knowledge to interpret reproductive mechanisms and phylogenetic hypothesis in plants. We analyzed the morphology and functionality floret stages that are present in pistillate homogamous and functionally staminate heterogamous capitula of the dioecious species Baccharis aliena. P

2. Molecular evolution and functional divergence of alcohol dehydrogenases in animals, fungi and plants
Abstract Alcohol dehydrogenases belong to the large superfamily of medium-chain dehydrogenases/reductases, which occur throughout the biological world and are involved with many important metabolic routes. We considered the phylogeny of 190 ADH sequences of animals, fungi, and plants. Non-class III Caenorhabditis elegans ADHs were seen closely related to tet

3. Elevated Atmospheric CO2 and Drought Affect Soil Microbial Community and Functional Diversity Associated with Glycine max
Abstract Under the background of climate change, the increase of atmospheric CO2 and drought frequency have been considered as significant influencers on the soil microbial communities and the yield and quality of crop. In this study, impacts of increased ambient CO2 and drought on soil microbial structure and functional diversity of a Stagnic Anthrosol were

4. Diversity and evolution of plant diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGATs) unveiled by phylogenetic, gene structure and expression analyses
Abstract Since the first diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) gene was characterized in plants, a number of studies have focused on understanding the role of DGAT activity in plant triacylglycerol (TAG) biosynthesis. DGAT enzyme is essential in controlling TAGs synthesis and is encoded by different genes. DGAT1 and DGAT2 are the two major types of DGATs and

5. Soil and leaf nutrient content of tree species support deciduous forests on limestone outcrops as a eutrophic ecosystem
The leaf and soil nutrient status of plants has been used to infer structural and functional aspects at the ecosystem level. Such data are available for tropical and savanna systems growing on poor and acidic soils; however, information for species growing on eutrophic and basic soils is lacking. Deciduous tropical forest is one of the most endangered types

6. Rice grain resistance to brown spot and yield are increased by silicon
Brown spot, caused by Bipolaris oryzae, is one of the most important diseases of rice and can cause a reduction in yield and grain quality. The effect of silicon (Si) on the resistance of rice grains to brown spot was investigated. Plants from cv. Oochikara and its mutant, defective in the Lsi1 transporter (lsi1 mutant), were grown in hydroponic culture eith

7. Evolução e ecologia de tricomas em Bignonieae (Bignoniaceae): estruturas morfológicas de defesa anti-herbivoria? / Evolution and ecology of trichomes in Bignonieae (Bignoniaceae): morphological structures of anti-herbivory defense?
This thesis focused on the evolutionary-ecology of trichomes in the tribe Bignonieae (Bignoniaceae), and in the potential defensive role of these structures against herbivores. More specifically, we characterized four trichome morphotypes found in vegetative plant parts of representatives of the Bignonieae, as well as studied the macro-evolutionary patterns

8. Evolução e desenvolvimento de gavinhas em Bignonieae (Bignoniaceae) / Evolution and development of tendrils in Bignonieae (Bignoniaceae)
Angiosperm leaves have undergone major functional and structural modifications over time, and currently exist in a wide diversity of forms, sizes, and arrangements. For example, in the tribe Bignonieae (Bignoniaceae), leaves are generally 2-3-foliolated, and the terminal leaflet is often modified into tendrils.These tendrils present varied morphologies (simp

9. Anti-oxidative and proteolytic activities and protein profile of laticifer cells of Cryptostegia grandiflora, Plumeria rubra and Euphorbia tirucalli
In this study, proteins extracted from laticifer cells of three plants were examined by electrophoresis, mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF) and characterized in respect of proteolytic, chitinolytic and anti-oxidative activities by means of zymography and colorimetric assays. Acidic proteins with molecular masses between 12.5 and 74.5 kDa predominated in laticifer

10. EVALUATION OF DYNAMICS AND DIVERSITY OF A NATURAL PASTURE UNDER DIFFERENT DISTURBANCE / AVALIAÇÃO DA DINÂMICA E DA DIVERSIDADE DE UMA PASTAGEM NATURAL SUBMETIDA A DIFERENTES DISTÚRBIOS
Dynamics of species, families and plant functional types (PFTs), and diversity of a natural grassland submitted or not to burning and grazing, in different relief positions (concave a convex slope) were evaluated. Treatments consisted of the associations of those three factors, in a completely randomized design, with variable number of replicates, from two t

11. Efficiency of flamers in the weeds control / Eficiencia de flamejadores no controle de plantas daninhas
In agricultural production systems have been employed various techniques to achieve the goals focused on sustainability. Tactics or tools of management are adopted in order to provide greater productivity, lower impact on natural resources and better human development. The control of weeds in these systems has sued constant studies for improving performance

12. DINÂMICA E MODELAGEM TEMPORAL DE VEGETAÇÃO CAMPESTRE SOB DISTÚRBIOS / MODELLING TEMPORAL DYNAMIC OF GRASSLAND VEGETATION UNDER DISTURBANCE
O desenvolvimento de sistemas de produção viáveis economicamente, que tornem compatíveis bons ganhos animais com a preservação dos ecossistemas de pastagens naturais, deve ser apoiado pelo conhecimento da dinâmica da vegetação que ocorre após determinadas práticas de manejo. Estudos de dinâmica da vegetação revelam processos de substituição d
