Coffee is one of the most valuable agricultural commodities and ranks second on international trade exchanges. The genus Coffea belongs to the Rubiaceae family which includes other important plants. The genus contains about 100 species but commercial production is based only on two species, Coffea arabica and Coffea canephora that represent about 70 % and 30 % of the total coffee market, respectively. The Brazilian Coffee Genome Project was designed with the objective of making modern genomics resources ...

Abstract A 2 2 central composite design with five center points was performed to estimate the effects of temperature (120, 130 and 140 °C) and acid loading (100, 150 and 200 mg g −1 ) on the yield of monomeric xylose recovery from wheat straw hemicellulose ( Y S/RM ). Under the best hydrolysis condition (140 °C and 200 mg g −1 ), a Y S/RM of 0.26 g g −1 was achieved. After vacuum concentration and detoxification by pH alteration and active charcoal adsorption, the hydrolyzate was used as source of xylose for xylitol ...

Energy generated by fossil fuels is the main source of GHG emissions in the world. To mitigate global warming, Paris Agreement is an initiative that aims to limit global GHG emissions. Substitution of fossil fuels by renewable sources is considered a solution to reducing GHG emissions. Solar energy is particularly emphasized due to its high availability and low emissions. Although Brazil has excellent conditions for the generation of photovoltaic solar energy, its energy matrix is still composed ...

Coral reefs are home to some of the most studied ecological assemblages on the planet. However, differences in large-scale assembly rules have never been studied using empirical quantitative data stratified along the depth gradient of reefs. Consequently, little is known about the small- and regional-scale effects of depth on coral reef assemblages. Using a large dataset of underwater surveys, we observed that the influence of classic biogeographic drivers on the species richness of coral reef fishes ...

The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has prompted global efforts to develop therapeutics. The main protease of SARS-CoV-2 (Mpro) and the papain-like protease (PLpro) are essential for viral replication and are key targets for therapeutic development. In this work, we investigate the mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 inhibition by diphenyl diselenide (PhSe)2 which is an archetypal model of diselenides and a renowned potential therapeutic agent. The in vitro inhibitory concentration of (PhSe)2 against SARS-CoV-2 in Vero E6 ...

A survey of Habenaria in the Amazon region in northern Brazil was undertaken. Forty species are recognized for the region. The majority of the species occur in savannah vegetation and the vegetation types with the highest number of species are the inland savannahs on terra firme (19 spp.), the savannahs of Roraima (16 spp.) and the coastal savannahs of Pará and Amapá (15 spp.). Only four species grow in forest and three in the Amazonian caatinga. Nine of these species are restricted in Brazil to the ...

SUMMARY It is becoming increasingly evident that a plant-pathogen interaction may be compared to an open warfare, whose major weapons are proteins synthesized by both organisms. These weapons were gradually developed in what must have been a multimillion-year evolutionary game of ping-pong. The outcome of each battle results in the establishment of resistance or pathogenesis. The plethora of resistance mechanisms exhibited by plants may be grouped into constitutive and inducible, and range from ...

The attempted infection of a plant by a pathogen, such as a fungus or an Oomycete, may be regarded as a battle whose major weapons are proteins and smaller chemical compounds produced by both organisms. Indeed, plants produce an astonishing plethora of defense compounds that are still being discovered at a rapid pace. This pattern arose from a multi-million year, ping-pong−type co-evolution, in which plant and pathogen successively added new chemical weapons in this perpetual battle. As each defensive ...

The function of a protein is determined by its structure, which is intrinsically related to its solvent environment. Based on this paradigm, there has been a great deal of interest in the role that non-aqueous solvents play in regulating protein structure, with some debate in the literature regarding dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Thus, in this work we have used Raman and Raman optical activity (ROA) spectroscopies to investigate conclusively the changes induced by DMSO in the secondary structure of an ...

ABSTRACT Recent Raman and Raman optical activity (ROA) results have demonstrated that dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) induces the selective conversion of α‐helix motifs into the poly(L‐proline) II (PPII) helix conformation in an array of proteins, while β‐sheets remain mostly unaffected. Human serum albumin (HSA), a highly α‐helical protein, underwent the most dramatic changes and, therefore, was selected as a model for further investigations into the mechanism of this conformational change. Herein we report ...

Phytochemical investigations on three Brazilian Lauraceae species from the Cerrado region of São Paulo State, Ocotea corymbosa (Meins) Mez., O. elegans Mez. and Persea pyrifolia Nees & Mart. ex Nees resulted in the isolation of flavonoids, an ester of the 4-O-E-caffeoylquinic acid, an aromatic sesquiterpene besides furofuran lignans. This is the first chemical study on the leaves of Ocotea elegans and O. corymbosa as well as the first report of non-volatile compounds from Persea pyrifolia.

During a field study in a forest de igapó in Brazilian Amazon, a new natural hybrid was found, it is here described as Catasetum × sheyllae. Its morphological features, mainly the structures of the lip, are intermediate between those of its putative parent species, C. boyi and C. garnettianum, both observed in sympatry.

In addition, the possibility of disconnection syndrome should be considered in some cases. The purpose of this article is ...

Traditional conservation techniques for mapping highly biodiverse areas assume there to be satisfactory knowledge about the geographic distribution of biodiversity. There are, however, large gaps in biological sampling and hence knowledge shortfalls. This problem is even more pronounced in the tropics. Indeed, the use of only a few taxonomic groups or environmental surrogates for modelling biodiversity is not viable in mega-diverse countries, such as Brazil. To overcome these limitations, we developed ...

Our results show that the knowledge on biodiversity in most Brazilian PAs remain scant as 71% of PAs have ...
