Abstract Background Obesity in infancy and adolescence has acquired epidemic dimensions worldwide is considered a risk factor for number of disorders that can manifest at an early age, such as Metabolic Syndrome (MS). In this study, we evaluated overweight, obese, extremely obese adolescents the presence MS, studied prevalence single factors syndrome population. Methods A total 321 (174 females 147 males) aged 10 to 16 years, attending Adolescent Outpatient Clinic Botucatu School Medicine,...
Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. Ex Adr. Juss.) Muell.-Arg. is the primary source of natural rubber that native to Amazon rainforest. The singular properties make it superior and competitive with synthetic for use in several applications. Here, we performed RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) H. bark on Illumina GAIIx platform, which generated 179,326,804 raw reads platform. A total 50,384 contigs were over 400 bp size obtained subjected further analyses. similarity search against non-redundant (nr) protein...
The rubber tree (Hevea spp.), cultivated in equatorial and tropical countries, is the primary plant used natural production. Due to genetic physiological constraints, inbred lines of this species are not available. Therefore, alternative approaches required for characterization species, such as mapping full-sib crosses derived from outbred parents. In present study, an integrated map was obtained a cross family with simple sequence repeats (SSRs) expressed tag (EST-SSR) markers, which can...
Abstract Sugarcane yellow leaf (SCYL), caused by the sugarcane virus (SCYLV) is a major disease affecting sugarcane, leading sugar and energy crop. Despite damages SCYLV, genetic base of resistance to this remains largely unknown. Several methodologies have arisen identify molecular markers associated with SCYLV resistance, which are crucial for marker-assisted selection understanding response mechanisms virus. We investigated using dominant codominant genotypes interest breeding. A panel...
Abstract Bone turnover is affected by exercise throughout the lifespan, especially during childhood and adolescence. The objective of this study was to investigate impact different sports on total regional bone mineral density in male Brazilian adolescent athletes. Forty-six adolescents aged 10–18 years participated study: 12 swimmers, 10 tennis players, soccer 14 sedentary individuals. athletes had engaged physical activities for more than h per week previous 6 months. lumbar spine (L1–L4),...
The rubber tree [Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex Adr. de Juss.) Muell. Arg.] is the only plant species worldwide that cultivated for commercial production of natural rubber. This study describes genetic diversity Hevea spp. complex available in main situ collections South America, including Amazonian populations have never been previously described. Genetic data were analyzed to determine structure wild populations, quantify allelic and suggest composition a core collection capture maximum...
Rubber tree (
Hevea brasiliensis (rubber tree) is a large tree species of the Euphorbiaceae family with inestimable economic importance. Rubber breeding programs currently aim to improve growth and production, use early genotype selection technologies can accelerate such processes, mainly incorporation genomic tools, as marker-assisted (MAS). However, few quantitative trait loci (QTLs) have been used successfully in MAS for complex characteristics. Recent research shows efficiency genome-wide association...
Among rubber tree species, which belong to the Hevea genus of Euphorbiaceae family, brasiliensis (Willd. ex Adr.de Juss.) Muell. Arg. is main commercial source natural production worldwide. Knowledge population structure and linkage disequilibrium (LD) this species essential for efficient organization exploitation genetic resources. Here, we obtained single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using a genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach then employed SNPs following objectives: (i) identify...
Rubber tree is cultivated in mainly Southeast Asia and by far the most significant source of natural rubber production worldwide. However, genetic architecture underlying primary agronomic traits this crop has not been widely characterized. This study aimed to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with growth latex using a biparental population established suboptimal conditions Brazil. A full-sib composed 251 individuals was developed from crossing two high-producing Asiatic...
Natural rubber, an indispensable commodity used in approximately 40,000 products, is fundamental to the tire industry. The rubber tree species Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex Adr. de Juss.) Muell-Arg., which native Amazon rainforest, major producer of latex worldwide. Rubber breeding time consuming, expensive and requires large field areas. Thus, genetic studies could optimize evaluations, thereby reducing area required for these experiments. In this work, transcriptome sequencing was identify...

Hevea brasiliensis is a native species of the Amazon Basin South America and primary source natural rubber worldwide. Due to occurrence American Leaf Blight disease in this area, plantations have been extended suboptimal regions. Rubber tree breeding time-consuming expensive, but molecular markers can serve as tool for early evaluation, thus reducing time costs. In work, we constructed six different cDNA libraries with aim developing gene-targeted tree. A total 8,263 reads were assembled,...
Abstract Local adaptation is often a product of environmental variations in geographical space and has implications for biodiversity conservation. We investigated the role latitudinal heterogeneity climate on organization genetic phenotypic variation dominant coastal tree Avicennia schaueriana . In common garden experiment, samples from an equatorial region, with pronounced seasonality precipitation, accumulated less biomass, showed lower stomatal conductance transpiration, narrower xylem...
Abstract Background Paspalum notatum exhibits both sexual and apomictic cytotypes and, thus, is considered a good model for studies of apomixis because it facilitates comparative approaches. In this work, transcriptome sequencing was used to compare contrasting P. identify differential expression patterns candidate genes involved in the regulation trait. Results We built comprehensive using leaf inflorescence from tetraploids diploids/tetraploids coexpression network based on pairwise...
In this work, we studied the biosynthesis of caffeine by examining expression genes involved in biosynthetic pathway coffee fruits containing normal or low levels substance. The amplification gene-specific transcripts during fruit development revealed that low-caffeine had a lower theobromine synthase and also contained an extra transcript gene. This only part exon 1 all 3. sequence mutant gene substitution isoleucine for valine enzyme active site probably interfered with enzymatic activity....
The protein kinase (PK) superfamily constitutes one of the largest and most conserved families in eukaryotic genomes, comprising core components signaling pathways cell regulation. Despite its remarkable relevance, only a few have been studied Hevea brasiliensis. A comprehensive characterization global expression analysis PK superfamily, however, is currently lacking. In this study, with aim providing novel inferences about mechanisms associated stress response developed by PKs retained...
Urochloa humidicola (Koronivia grass) is a polyploid (6x to 9x) species that used as forage in the tropics. Facultative apospory apomixis present most of genotypes this species, although one individual has been described sexual.
