Introducing and Evaluating Black-Sigatoka Resistant Banana Trees in the State of Para Bananas are one of Brazil's main agricultural products, having great economical significance. With a production reaching over five million tons annually, the fruit is a source of food for millions of people around the world. However, the plantations have been facing diseases and plagues which reduce the productive cycle once the local farmers are oblivious to certain agricultural practices. In the Amazon, the need to increase the crops is hindered by the lack of quality genetic strains for disse Status: Completed Start date: Sun Apr 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2007
Evaluation of Black Pepper Matrix Plants Focused on Viral Diseases and Development of Viral Diagnose Protocols and in vitro Clonning This project aims to index viral matrices from black pepper nursery ponds in the state of Pará and Espírito Santo, and also to characterize biologically, serologically, morphologically, and molecularly the unknown virus and develop diagnosis kits for such, to optimize a black pepper in vitro propagation protocol, to form a basic matrix (cloned garden) in screened green house, and to offer seedlings to nursery ponds in order to revitalize the existing matrix, to offer training on black pepper vir ...

Genetic Basis to Aid Genetic Improvement of the Cupuaçu Tree ( Theobroma grandiflorum) The program of genetic improvement of the cupuaçu tree ( Theobroma grandiflorum) needs to tend to the demand of new cultivares, especially of those resistant to the Monilophthora perniciosa fungus, the agent responsible for causing the deformity known as witch's broom disease, and also to increase as much as possible the genetic base of planting material. This project aims to develop new technologies which promote the quick multiplication of selected cultivares, as well as to early select ...

Fusarium solani f. sp. Piperis Transcriptome Obtained During the Interaction with Piper colubrinun, via Solid Sequencing Platform Black pepper ( Piper nigrum L.) is highly important in Brazilian agri-business, and it currently occupies the fourth position in the world's market export rates, the state of Pará being responsible for 85% of the national production. In this context, the emergence of fusariosis, caused by the Fusarium solani f. sp. Piperis fungus, has been the source of significant losses to the black pepper culture, especially in Pará. Studies have confirmed the narrow genetic base and the suscep ... Status: Completed Start date: Tue Sep 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2009
