Abstract The Northeast region of Brazil has low levels of human development and a
marginal environment subject to chronic water scarcity. This paper assesses the potential …

Jatropha curcas is believed to be one of the potential biofuel crops, as it does not compete
with planting lands for the edible oil plants. However, J. curcas has not been domesticated …

RESUMO A metodologia máxima verossimilhança restrita/melhor preditor linear não
viesado (REML/BLUP) tem sido utilizada para interpretação da estabilidade genotípica e da …

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o desempenho agronômico eo ganho genético pela
seleção de famílias de meio-irmãos de pinhão-manso, cultivado em três regiões do Brasil. A …

The genetic variability of the Brazilian physic nut (Jatropha curcas) germplasm bank (117
accessions) was assessed using a combination of phenotypic and molecular data. The joint …

The aim of this study was to estimate the repeatability coefficient of grain production in
Jatropha, the minimum number of measurements needed to reliably predict the genetic …

The biggest challenge for jatropha breeding is to identify superior genotypes that present
high seed yield and seed oil content with reduced toxicity levels. Therefore, the objective of …

Twenty maize genotypes (19 inbred lines and a commercial hybrid) were studied assessing
the extent of genetic diversity for 21 qualitative and quantitative morpho-metric traits and 18 …

Currently, agriculture depends heavily on a variety of agrochemicals, such as mineral
fertilizers and pesticides, that often have adverse effects on human health and …

O lulo é um fruto tropical e exótico, originário dos Andes, tem cor laranja quando maduro, e
é uma baga globosa, assemelha-se a um tomate, o epicarpo é grosso e coriáceo, sua polpa …
