Infertility caused by an association between Arg72Pro polymorphism of the p53 gene and Glu298Asp of the eNOS gene in patients with endometriosis

Authors: T.R. Santos, K.S.F. e Silva, R.C.P.C. Silva, K.K.V.O. Moura, L.A. Guillo, C.L. Ribeiro J�ºnior and I.R. Costa

Endometriosis is characterized by ectopic endometrial tissue and affects millions of women worldwide. The disease leads to various symptoms such as chronic pelvic pain and infertility and does not yet have a well-defined etiology. The pathology is similar to cancer, since endometrial cells are highly proliferative, invade tiss.. Read More»

High precision experimental statistics for the selection of common bean lines that have superior agronomic performance

Authors: N.D. Ribeiro, S. de M. Steckling and H.C. Mezzomo

The identification of a single statistic that allows selection of superior genotypes for several agronomic traits with high experimental precision would be useful for bean breeding programs. We examined correlations between 12 statistics for agronomic traits to determine which would be useful for the selection of common bean l.. Read More»

Phenotypic stability of strawberry cultivars assessed in three environments

Authors: A. Gabriel, J.T.V. Resende, A.R. Zeist, L.V. Resende, N.C.V. Resende, A.G. Galv�£o, R.A. Zeist, R.B. de Lima Filho, J.V.W. Corr�ªa and C.K. Camargo

We examined the agronomic performance and stability of strawberry cultivars in three environments, using the Annicchiarico and AMMI methods. Thirteen strawberry cultivars were evaluated (Aromas, Oso Grande, Dover, Sweet Charlie, Tudla, Festival, Camarosa, Monterey, Palomar, Portola, Camino Real, San Andreas and Albion), in the..

Detection of sequences related to biosynthesis of antifungal metabolites and identification of a PhzF-like gene in a Pseudomonas rhizobacterium of Piper tuberculatum

Authors: O.S. Silva Jr., N.L.F. Barros, A.S. Siqueira, E.C. Gon�§alves, D. N. Marques, S.P. Reis, and C.R.B. Souza

Our previous studies identified a Pseudomonas putida (Pt12 isolate) associated with roots of Piper tuberculatum Jacq., a Piperaceae occurring in the Amazon region with known resistance to infection by Fusarium solani f. sp. piperis, the causal agent of root rot disease in black pepper (Piper nigrum L.). This Pt12 isolate was a.. Read More»

One-Step RT-qPCR assay for detection and quantification of equine infectious anemia virus in-vitro

Authors: B.L. Bueno, F.G. Oliveira, G.K. Lima1, A.A. Fonseca J�ºnior, T.C. Kassar, R.J.F. C�¢mara, R.C. Leite and J.K.P. Reis

Equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) infection often results in an initial febrile response, followed by recurrent cycles of the disease and finally, a prolonged asymptomatic period. These variations in clinical signs are due to a number of factors, including virus strain, equid species and differences in susceptibility among.. Read More»

In view of the need to obtain genetically superior eucalyptus clones that promote productivity coupled with quality, we used multivariate statistical techniques for the selection and evaluation of Eucalyptus spp. clones for wood production. The experiments were carried out in three environments in the districts of Eldorado do .. Read More»

Genetic diversity of a native population of Myrcia ovata (Myrtaceae) using ISSR molecular markers

Authors: L.A.S. White1, A.V.C. Silva2, S.V. Alvares-Carvalho1, R. Silva-Mann1, M.F. Arrigoni-Blank1, E.M.S. Souza1, C.S. Almeida1, D.A.C. Nizio1, T.S. Sampaio1 and A.F. Blank1

Myrcia ovata Cambess. (Myrtaceae) is a medicinal and aromatic plant that has analgesic, bactericidal and fungicidal properties. Even though this plant has economic potential, nothing is known about the variability and genetic diversity of this species. This information is necessary to establish conservation strategies and allo.. Read More»

Genetic and phenotypic association of the carnauba palm tree evaluated by inter-simple sequence repeat and biometric traits

Authors: C.G. Fajardo, R.A.R. Silva, K.P.T. Chagas, F.A. Vieira

The carnauba palm Copernicia prunifera is the third most important non-timber forest species in Brazil; it is mainly known for the production of carnauba wax. We examined intrapopulation genetic diversity and correlated genotypic and phenotypic traits of 28 trees from a coastal location in Rio Grande do Norte state. Phenotypic.. Read More»
