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

The project QUALIMICRO - Implementation and Monitoring of Quality Systems in Embrapa's Microbial Collections aims to implement the corporate quality requirements in 21 collections of microorganisms from 18 research units of the Company located in several Brazilian states. The Project will guarantee the quality in the management of these collections and make them able to meet the requirements of the national and international market.

QUALIMICRO lasts four years (until 2020) and continues ...

A country's sovereignty is directly related to ensuring the three types of security: food, energy, and territorial security. Basically, food security and renewable energy security depend on agriculture and its water resources. Brazil, which contains about 12% of the world availability of water resources, is a privileged country in view of the possibility of using these resources in different sectors, of which the agricultural sector, as a broad concept that involves agriculture, husbandry, and f

This component project uses a transversal approach and is responsible for the search and analysis of advanced information technologies (TIs), and their operation in order to perform more efficient simulations that deal with impacts caused by climate change in the country's agriculture. The project is linked to the project "Simulation of Agricultural Future Scenarios from the Regional Climate Change Projections" and will take a look at technology alternatives in a system of high performance paral ...

The cultures of castor oil plant, sunflower, cotton, orange, yuca and sugarcane have great importance in many regions of Brazil, and also represent a substantial part of the country's agricultural gross domestic product (GDP). They are cultures that, in most cases, occupy a considerable territorial extension with uniform surfaces, a fact which might cause them to suffer accentuated impacts of the global climate change, and subsequently cause ripple effects in food safety and other important sect

This project's goal is to evaluate and quantify the impacts caused by global climate changes in Brazilian's most important economic cultures . For such a purpose, the input database of all the models of all the proposed projects will consist of projections or regional scenarios released by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and serve as downscalings of the global climatic scenarios. These regional scenarios will define future agricultural scenarios based in mathematical models

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 ...
