The main goal of the Institutional Development Plan is to improve the work conditions and the development of products and services targeted to agribusiness production chains. These products and services, developed by the Agronomic Institute, should positively impact the scientific development and those technological packages that brings innovations to the agribusiness. On such a backgroun…
The most important character in the genetic improvement of the rubber tree Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex Adr. de Juss) Muell.-Arg. is the production of latex. However, the expression of this potential is usually influenced by several genetic factors inherent to the tree, such as vigor, bark thickness, resistance to wind, diseases, etc. and environmental factors such as: management practic…

The Agronomic Institute (IAC) has being responsible for performing the genetic improvement efforts of the rubber tree in Brazil, that has as one of the main pillars obtaining individuals with high production potential. The performed population descended from parental clones that were phenotypically selected in Malaysia and introduced in 1952 at the IAC Central Experimental Center (CEC), a…
Rubber tree [Hevea brasiliensis (Willd. ex. Adr. de Juss.) Müell-Arg.] major source of natural rubber in the world, has a breeding cycle of about 20 to 30 years until it can be recommended for comercial cultivation. Thus, it is necessary to develop new strategies to successfully reduce this cycle. In order to verify if theres a relationship between the ortets selected in progenies tests a…
