The maize floury2 mutation results in the formation of a soft, starchy endosperm with reduced amount prolamin (zein) proteins and twice lysine content wild type. is semidominant associated small, irregularly shaped protein bodies, elevated levels 70-kDa chaperone endoplasmic reticulum, novel 24-kDa polypeptide zein fraction. precursor 22-kDa α-zein that not properly processed. defect due to an alanine-to-valine substitution at C-terminal position signal peptide, which causes be anchored...

Opaque‐2 ( o2 ) is a mutation in one of the regulatory loci that control storage protein gene transcription maize Zea mays L.) kernels. It results significant reduction prolamine content endosperm, which becomes chalky and soft. Quality Protein Maize (QPM) genotypes are modified, hard‐endosperm, mutants carry genetic factors responsible for increased synthesis γzein (tool. wt. 27 kD). The genes encoding this not under 02 locus. We used combination biochemical analyses to investigate...

Abstract Petrobras created a corporate program designed to guide and implement Digital Integrated Field Management among its production assets, named GeDIg. Fazenda Alegre field (FAL) was chosen as the Espírito Santo Business Unit pilot. The FAL is an onshore brownfield which produces naphthenic heavy oil from 59 wells with cycled steam injection improved recovery (IOR) method. technical teams are geographically dispersed three different locations: logistics base in São Mateus city, business...

O objetivo deste trabalho foi testar a eficiência do comprimento relativo de raiz seminal (CRRS) e líquido (CLRS) como indicadores fenotípicos quanto à tolerância ao alumínio na avaliação plantas individuais milho. Plântulas genótipos tolerantes suscetíveis Al foram submetidas solução nutritiva contendo nível tóxico elemento, por um período sete dias, após o qual, determinaram-se os valores CRRS CLRS. Os resultados obtidos quando se utilizaram médios para CLRS mostraram que ambos índices...
