Genética aplicada à ecologia de estradas: um estudo na estrada municipal Guilherme Scatena (São Carlos, SP) e potencial impacto na biodiversidade local
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2012-04-25)
Roads generate a large ecological impact to wildlife by raising barriers among ranges of species originally continuous and for causing road-kills. After road-killing, a morphological identification becomes impossible for ...
Biologia molecular aplicada à identificação de alvos para o controle do bicudo da cana-de-açucar, Sphenophorus levis
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2012-02-29)
The sugarcane weevil, Sphenophorus levis, is an insect that feeds on the rhizome of sugarcane in its larval stage, boring channels that cause damage and death to the plant. Conventional methods of insect control have not ...
Análise da diversidade microbiana aquática em rios e lagos da região amazônica
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2012-11-07)
The Amazon region has the largest hydrographic basin on the planet, the one that includes Amazon River, and it also has the largest rainforest in the world. Moreover, it presents a great biological diversity, both related ...
Clonagem e estudos de expressão de enzimas do fungo filamentoso Trichoderma harzianum IOC-3844 envolvidas na degradação de biomassa
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2012-07-06)
The plant biomass is a large-scale available resource and one of its more important applications is the second-generation ethanol production. However, the enzyme cost is one of the biggest barriers for economically viable ...
Produção recombinante e caracterização funcional de uma legumaína de cana-de-açúcar
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2012-02-28)
Plant legumains, also termed vacuolar processing enzymes (VPEs), are cysteine peptidases that play key roles in seed maturation, germination, senescence, stress response, programmed cell death during development and defense ...
Produção recombinante, caracterização enzimática e estudos sobre a ocorrência de pectinases no "bicudo da cana-de-açúcar" (Sphenophorus levis, Curculionidae)
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2012-04-04)
Plant cell wall confers to the cell plant, structural support as well as protection against pathogens and phytophagous. Among the cell wall polysaccharides includes pectic substances, which are composed of partially ...
Efeitos de carboidratos no desempenho, na digestão e no metabolismo de matrinxã (Brycon amazonicus) e híbridos de pintado (Pseudoplatystoma corruscans x Pseudoplatystoma fasciatum) em um período curto de alimentação
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2012-01-13)
Improvements in fish farming production require continuous research in nutrient formulation and diet technology. Feeding is the most important handling daily practiced by fish farmers and diets must supply the nutritional ...
Citogenética comparativa em espécies de Hypostomus (Siluriformes, Loricariidae, Hypostominae). Contribuição da fração repetitiva do genoma para a diversidade cromossômica do grupo
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2012-11-14)
Hypostomus is the widest genus of the armored catfishes in South America. This group presents a great diversity in color pattern and morphology, and shows not conservative chromosomal features. Different classes of repetitive ...
Origem das linhagens mitocondriais nas abelhas africanizadas (Apis mellifera L.) do Brasil
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2012-03-30)
The Africanization process of Apis mellifera has raised several questions about the genetic makeup of resulting populations. This study aimed to identify the number, frequency and distribution of different mitochondrial ...
Clonagem gênica e caracterização de uma enzima tipo-luciferase de coleópteros não bioluminescentes e sua relação com a origem da atividade luminescente
(Universidade Federal de São Carlos, 2012-03-06)
Bioluminescence in beetles is dependent on luciferase which evolved from AMP/CoA ligases. The cDNA of a luciferase-like enzime was cloned from the Malpighian tubules of Zophobas morio mealworm (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae). ...
