Morphometric analysis of the mud crab Hexapanopeus paulensis Rathbun, 1930 (Decapoda, Xanthoidea) from the southeastern coast of Brazil
(Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2014) [Artigo]In this study, we estimated the size at onset of maturity (carapace width, CW50) and analyzed the relative growth of some body parts and the heterochely of the mud crab Hexapanopeus paulensis. A total of 800 crabs were ... -
Molecular evaluation of developmental competence of oocytes collected in vivo from buffalo and bovine heifers during winter and summer
(Buffalo Bulletin, 2013) [Trabalho apresentado em evento]Buffaloes and bovines are polyestrous and seasonal or annual livestock, respectively, that show reduced fertility during heat stress. To investigate whether reduced fertility is related to oocyte competence in both species, ... -
Detection of estrous behavior in buffalo heifers by radiotelemetry following PGF2α administration during the early or late luteal phase
(Animal Reproduction Science, 2014) [Artigo]This study examined the usefulness of radiotelemetry for estrous detection in buffalo heifers and the impact of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) administration during the early or late luteal phase on estrous behavior and ovulatory ... -
Digestibility of triticale by Nile tilapia
(Boletim do Instituto de Pesca, 2010) [Artigo]This work aimed to determine the dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP), gross energy (GE) and essential aminoacid (EAA) digestibility coefficient of triticale by Nile tilapia. Fish with 112.00 ± 22.00g average weight were ... -
Prácticas culturales para el manejo de la Sigatoka negra en bananos y plátanos
(Tropical Plant Pathology, 2008) [Artigo]Black sigatoka (Mycosphaerella fijiensis) control consists in the continuous use of fungicide sprays and cultural practices. Cultural control reduces inoculum sources of the pathogen and favorable environmental conditions ... -

(Ciencia Rural, 2007) [Artigo]Aiming at identifing the behavioral patterns in the cow-calf relationship of the Nelore beef breed and how the environment can interfere in this relationship, and proposing practical solutions of manage, a study measuring ... -
Biorecognition of hydrogen peroxide using a novel electrochemical platform designed with Glossoscolex paulistus giant hemoglobin
(Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, 2022) [Artigo]The giant extracellular hemoglobin of the annelid Glossoscolex paulistus (HbGp; 3.6 MDa) is a valuable and underexplored supramolecular hemoprotein system for the biorecognition of reactive oxygen species. In this work, ... -
The historical and contemporary knowledge on the elasmobranchs of Cananeia and adjacent waters, a coastal marine hotspot of southeastern Brazil
(Regional Studies in Marine Science, 2022) [Artigo]In this study we present data on the richness of sharks and rays from the southern coast of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil, in a coastal area considered as an essential habitat for many species of elasmobranchs. Based on ... -
Do water dynamics and land use in riparian areas change the spatial pattern of physical–mechanical properties of a Cambisol?
(Precision Agriculture, 2022) [Artigo]Changes in land use in riverside ecosystems added to the flood and ebb regimes of rivers modify the spatial variability of the physical–mechanical attributes of soil, making it more susceptible to degradation processes, ... -
Fish otolith microchemistry as a biomarker of the world's largest mining disaster
(Science of the Total Environment, 2022) [Artigo]The Fundão dam collapse occurred in late 2015, resulting in the largest disaster in the world involving mine tailings, releasing at least 50 million m3 of iron ore tailings into the Doce river basin (Brazil). Studies ... -
Silicon and mechanical damage increase polyphenols and vitexin in Passiflora incarnata L.
(Scientific Reports, 2021) [Artigo]Passiflora incarnata L. is a species of global pharmacological importance, has not been fully studied in the context of cultivation and management. It is known that silicon acts on abiotic stress and promotes phenols ... -
Plant invasion affects vegetation structure and sediment nitrogen stocks in subtropical mangroves
(Marine Environmental Research, 2021) [Artigo]Plant invasion can primarily affect the structure and functioning of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Although there is evidence that plant invasion can modify organic matter dynamics in mangroves, it is uncertain whether ... -
