Author(s): ZULIAN, D. F.; SOUZA, B. M. de; GONZALEZ, D.; CAMBUIM, J.; SILVA, A. M. da; ALVES, P. F.; LOPES, M. T. G.; MORAES, M. L. T. de; AGUIAR, A. V. de We estimated genetic parameters of two Pinus caribaea var. caribaea progeny tests based on growth traits aiming at the identification of the best selection strategy. This study was conducted in two pr... ... |
Author(s): FONSECA, J. M. O.; NUNES, J. A. R.; GONÇALVES, F. M. A.; SOUZA SOBRINHO, F. de; BENITES, F. R. G.; TEIXEIRA, D. H. L. Forage plant breeders often use visual scores to assess agronomic traits because of the costs associated with in-depth phenotyping in the initial stages of breeding cycles. The aim of this study was t... ... |
Optimal selective logging regime and log landing location models: a case study in the Amazon forest. Author(s): SILVA, P. H. da; GOMIDE, L. R.; FIGUEIREDO, E. O.; CARVALHO, L. M. T. de; FERRAZ FILHO, A. C. Reduced-impact logging is a well known practice applied in most sustainable forest management plans in the Amazon. Nevertheless, there are still ways to improve the operational planning process. There... ... |
Author(s): FONTOURA, D. de C. N. da; CAMARGO, S. da S.; TORRES JUNIOR, R. A. de A.; CARVALHO, H. G. de; CARDOSO, F. F. Background: Genetic Improvement Programs (GIP) aim to enhance productionefficiency of beef cattle. The main way to guide this enhancement is by choosing thebest mates among sires and cows, in order to... ... |
Author(s): FONTOURA, D. N.; CAMARGO, S. S.; CARDOSO, F. F. This work presents an approach, based on algorithm heuristics, which after the selection of bulls and cows belonging to a mating group, recommends the best combinations of mating to maximize the GQI,... ... |
Author(s): PEIXOTO, M. A.; EVANGELISTA, J. S. P. C.; ALVES, R. S.; FARIAS, F. J. C.; CARVALHO, L. P.; TEODORO, L. P. R.; TEODORO, P. E.; BHERING, L. L. In multi-environment trials (MET), large networks are assessed for results improvement. However, genotype by environment interaction plays an important role in the selection of the most adaptable and... ... |
Author(s): OLIVEIRA , B. R. de; LEITE, W. de S.; MIRANDA, R. de S.; DUTRA , A. F.; OKLA, M. K.; LUSTOSA SOBRINHO, R.; LUZ, M. R.; ZUFFO, A. M.; SOUSA, R. S. de; ROCHA, M. de M.; ABDELGAWAD, A.; ALCÂNTARA NETO, F. de. Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) is an essential food in many arid regions of developing countries. However, its cultivation is threatened by climate change. Silicon (Si) fertilization has been u... ... |

Author(s): BEVITORI, R.; OLIVEIRA, M. B.; GROSSI-DE-SÁ, M. F.; LANNA, A. C.; SILVEIRA, R. D. da; PETROFEZA, S. Drought and rice blast disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae are two of the most serious threats to global rice production. To explore the mechanisms underlying gene expression induced in rice by stres... ... |
Author(s): SIMIQUELI, G. F.; RESENDE, R. T.; RESENDE, M. D. V. de Genetic gain followed by loss of diversity is not ideal in breeding programs for several species, and most studies face this problem for single traits. Thus, we propose a selection method based on Gen... ... |
