Brazil leads the research on reproduction of forage plants, but faces as a challenge the low diversity of pastures, mainly formed by apomictic plants. Apomixia - asexual reproduction by seeds - is an area of biotechnology with great potential to optimize the genetic improvement of these species, as it develops genetic materials and procedures for plant cloning by the direct use of seeds. This project proposes the determination of strategies to regulate the genes associated with the mode of repro Status: Completed Start date: Mon Jun 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2015 |
The Innovation Network in Animal Reproduction adds skills among the different teams that work in the area of animal breeding biotechnology at Embrapa with the aim of increasing the competitiveness of animal production chains in Brazil. Among the objectives, the following stand out: creation of new technological platforms in this area, transfer of technologies generated by the component projects and consolidation of Embrapa as a reference institution for the formation of public policies related Status: Completed Start date: Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2015 |
The detection of metal ions in plant tissues is an analytical problem of biological relevance with an impact on plant production. These ions are present in the tissues of plants, and insufficient or excessive values can lead to toxicity and change in their physiology. One of the analytical strategies for the determination of metallic ions in tissues is the use of electrochemical biosensors, which allow quick, selective and sensitive responses. This project aims at the construction of a biosensor Status: Completed Start date: Tue Sep 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2015 |
The QUALIVEG Project - Implementation and Monitoring of Quality Systems in Vegetable Genetic Banks aims to map the current conditions of five of the 147 genetic banks of plants of importance for agriculture and food maintained by the Company throughout the National Territory, with the objective of adapting International quality standards. Status: Completed Start date: Fri Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2016 |
