1. Effects of flooding and shading on growth and gas exchange of Vochysia divergens Pohl (Vochysiaceae) of invasive species in the Brazilian Pantanal
Vochysia divergens Pohl (commonly known as cambara) is a pioneer tree species that is native to the Amazon Basin but has been invading the seasonally flooded wetlands of the Brazilian Pantanal, forming monospecific communities. The physiological aspects associated with cambara invasion, including the effects of flooding and shading on growth and leaf gas exc

2. Determinantes virais envolvidos na adaptabilidade diferencial de dois begomovírus em tomateiro e Nicotiana benthamiana / Viral determinants involves in the differential adaptation of two begomovirus in tomato and Nicotiana benthamiana
Begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae) have a genome composed of a one or two components of circular, single-stranded DNA and infect dicotyledoneous plants. Symptoms induced by the begomovirus Tomato yellow spot virus (ToYSV) in tomato and Nicotiana benthamiana are more severe and appear earlier compared to those induced by Tomato rugose mosaic virus (ToRMV).

3. Development of the mosaic of dominant arboreal ants and its importance to the biological control of insects associated with cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) / Desenvolvimento do mosaico de formigas arborícolas dominantes e sua importância no controle biológico natural dos insetos associados ao cacaueiro (Theobroma cacao L.)
Agroforests contribute to the survival of many native species. The cocoa plantations inserted in the Atlantic Forest biome in Southeast Bahia contribute to the conservation of a large amount of organisms, including ants. The evaluation of the ontogenetic succession of ants can help understanding the mosaic dynamics of the arboreal ants. Since this mosaic can

4. Invading potencial from Singapure almond (Terminalia catappa L.) in resting forest / Potencial invasor do chapéu-de-sol (Terminalia catappa L.) em área de restinga
Current and the next decade they will be identified in the time as group of the most excellent concerns with the ambient quality of the planet. Subjects as global heating and the eminent loss of the amount and quality of the water are argued constantly. A more specific ambient problem has worried specialists in the world all, including Brazil. One is about t

5. Efeito alelopÃtico do extrato aquoso de sementes de Cumaru (Amburana cearensis S.) sobre a germinaÃÃo de sementes, desenvolvimento e crescimento de plÃntulas de alface, picÃo-preto e carrapicho. / AlelopÃtico effect of the watery extract of seeds of Cumaru (Amburana cearensis S.) on the germination of seeds, development and growth of plÃntulas of lettuce, picÃo-preto (Bidens pilosa L.) and carrapicho.
The objective of the present work was to evaluate methods (maceration, decoccion and infusion) and times (30, 60 and 120 min. ) of extraction, besides the substances: fractions chloroform and acetate, and pure coumarin, in different concentrations, of the aqueous extract of cumaru seeds (Amburana cearensis S. ) on the germination, the development and the gro

6. Oligandrin. A Proteinaceous Molecule Produced by the Mycoparasite Pythium oligandrum Induces Resistance to Phytophthora parasitica Infection in Tomato Plants1
A low-molecular weight protein, termed oligandrin, was purified to homogeneity from the culture filtrate of the mycoparasitic fungus Pythium oligandrum. When applied to decapitated tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. var. Prisca) plants, this protein displayed the ability to induce plant defense reactions that contributed to restrict stem cell invasion by

7. Transgenic tobacco plants with reduced capability to detoxify reactive oxygen intermediates are hyperresponsive to pathogen infection
Reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI) play a critical role in the defense of plants against invading pathogens. Produced during the “oxidative burst,” they are thought to activate programmed cell death (PCD) and induce antimicrobial defenses such as pathogenesis-related proteins. It was shown recently that during the interaction of plants with pathogens, t

8. Site-Specific Integration of Agrobacterium tumefaciens T-DNA via Double-Stranded Intermediates1
Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated genetic transformation involves transfer of a single-stranded T-DNA molecule (T strand) into the host cell, followed by its integration into the plant genome. The molecular mechanism of T-DNA integration, the culmination point of the entire transformation process, remains largely obscure. Here, we studied the roles of doubl

9. A Role for Ectophosphatase in Xenobiotic Resistance
Xenobiotic resistance in animals, plants, yeast, and bacteria is known to involve ATP binding cassette transporters that efflux invading toxins. We present data from yeast and a higher plant indicating that xenobiotic resistance also involves extracellular ATP degradation. Transgenic upregulation of ecto-ATPase alone confers resistance to organisms that have

10. Inhibition of Programmed Cell Death in Tobacco Plants during a Pathogen-Induced Hypersensitive Response at Low Oxygen Pressure.
The hypersensitive response (HR) of plants to invading pathogens is thought to involve a coordinated activation of plant defense mechanisms and programmed cell death (pcd). To date, little is known about the mechanism underlying death of plant cells during this response. In addition, it is not known whether suppression of pcd affects the induction of other d

11. Benzothiadiazole-Mediated Induced Resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici in Tomato1
Benzo-(1,2,3)-thiadiazole-7-carbothioic acid S-methyl ester (BTH), a synthetic chemical, was applied as a foliar spray to tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) plants and evaluated for its potential to confer increased resistance against the soil-borne pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici (FORL). In nontreated tomato plants all root tissue

12. AGO1, QDE-2, and RDE-1 are related proteins required for post-transcriptional gene silencing in plants, quelling in fungi, and RNA interference in animals
Introduction of transgene DNA may lead to specific degradation of RNAs that are homologous to the transgene transcribed sequence through phenomena named post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) in plants, quelling in fungi, and RNA interference (RNAi) in animals. It was shown previously that PTGS, quelling, and RNAi require a set of related proteins (
