Genetic structure and diversity of Senefeldera verticillata (Euphorbiaceae) in semideciduous seasonal forest fragments

Senefeldera verticillata (Euphorbiaceae) is a species that exclusively occurs in the Atlantic Forest; it is used in the restoration and recovery of degraded areas and has therapeutic uses. Due to the scarcity of information on genetic patterns of this species, genetic diversity was characterized by the use of molecular markers, Inter Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR). .. Read More»

Comparative analysis of soybean genotype resistance to Heterodera glycines and Meloidogyne species via resistance gene analogs

    P.M.H. Vieira, F.A.S. Arêdes, A. Ferreira and M.F.S. Ferreira

Nematodes are important pests of soybean throughout the world and cause high yield losses. As a control strategy, the identification of resistance genes is an important aim of breeding studies. Plants possess resistance genes (R), which are responsible for the recognition of pathogens and activation of the defense system. R genes and resistance gene analogs (RGAs) p.. Read More»

Relationship between Psidium species (Myrtaceae) by resistance gene analog markers: focus on nematode resistance

    L.R. Noia, A.C. Tuler, A. Ferreira, M.F.S. Ferreira

Guava (Psidium guajava L.) crop is severely affected by the nematode Meloidogyne enterolobii. Native Psidium species have been reported as sources of resistance against this nematode. Knowledge on the molecular relationship between Psidium species based on plant resistance gene analogs (RGA) can be useful in the genetic breeding of guava for resistance to M. enterol.. Read More»

Multivariate analysis in a genetic divergence study of Psidium guajava

    A.M. Nogueira, M.F.S. Ferreira, J.H.S. Guilhen and A. Ferreira

The family Myrtaceae is widespread in the Atlantic Forest and is well-represented in the Espírito Santo State in Brazil. In the genus Psidium of this family, guava (Psidium guajava L.) is the most economically important species. Guava is widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical countries; however, the widespread cultivation of only a small number of guava tree cultivars may cause th.. Read More»
