River and may represent a methodological advance in the study of models of distribution of species of the ichthyofauna in the Eastern Amazon, in addition to assisting the management of this aquatic ecosystem and water resources, by public agencies. Parasitic diseases can be considered one of the factors that threatens fish populations in a natural environment, since parasites can actively act in the destruction of the communities of these animals, affecting the relative abundance of different

Epidemics of Diseases whose Pathogens are Transmitted by Insects (EDTIs) are frequent and impactful in the areas of human, animal and plant health. Due to its complexity, understanding the dynamics of EDTIs requires the accumulation of epidemiological data from monitoring networks and the use of models that establish the chain of relations between their components and calculate, under environmental oscillations, the rate and progress of the biological processes. This project proposes to develop

Velloziaceae are an angiosperm family that contains the most desiccation-tolerant species (approximately 200 out of 270 species). These species are distributed among five genera: Acanthochlamys, Xerophyta, Barbacenia, Barbaceniopsis and Vellozia. More than 80% of theVelloziaceae species occur in South America, where the greatest morphological diversity is also found. The genus Vellozia comprises both desiccation-tolerant and non-desiccation-tolerant species, offering an excellent model for study

In the past years, Brazil has stood out for its leadership and high competitiveness in food production, a position reached especially due to the substantial efforts put into research, development and innovation, associated with free entrepreneurship, natural favorable conditions, abundant and efficient food production, and governmental efforts, notably those of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Food Supply (Mapa). However, if on one hand the quantitative issues regarding Brazil's food p

The aim of this project is to assess the environmental performance of sugarcane and byproducts produced in Brazil's Mid-South, in traditional regions and in crop expansion areas, through the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach.

The main project differentials will be the use of primary data, preferrably, or of secondary data from official sources, as well as the generation and the use of parameters, factors and models to support the elaboration of life cycle inventories (LCIs) that suit Braz

Under the strong impact of the demand for energy and the need to develop alternative technologies to replace oil, the sugarcane industry is expanding and boosting interest in the assessment of both private and social costs and benefits in sugar and energy production. The importance of environmental issues in society has inserted this topic in the agenda of public and private planners through their concern with the preservation of water resources, soil fertility, and biodiversity, as well as with

The growing biofuel industry generates by-products that have shown promise as energy and protein feeds in ruminant diets. The objective of this project was to determine the effects of by-products of biodiesel production, obtained from different sources of oilseeds, on the in vitro degradability of nutrients, in vitro ruminal fermentation and methane gas production. Palisadegrass ( Brachiaria brizantha) was used as a model. Its isolated incubation was considered as a contro ...
