Biodiversity in Brazil is known as one of the richest in the world. The conservation of this biological diversity relies on the effective study and characterization of wild species. In this way, several approaches have been used including cytological data. One of the major challenges in the characterization of this biodiversity in the cytogenetic level, mainly in non-model plants, is the …
The family Solanaceae represents a group of species with worldwide distribution but with great diversity in Neotropical regions. With approximately 2500 species and nearly 100 genus, includes Solanum, one of the largest genus among angiosperms by gathering around 1500 species. Because of the large number of representatives, their morphological diversity and wide distribution, many phyloge…
The Dalbergieae sensu Klitgaard & Lavin (2005) tribe presents 49 genera and nearly 1,325 species distributed mainly on the tropical regions. Based on recently molecular studies, its circumscription was hardly altered, resulting on divergences between morphological and phylogenetically studies. In this way, the present study aims to help the taxonomic and evolutionary discussion on this t…

The jatobás, as they are popularly known, are trees belonging to the genus Hymenaea L, inserted in tribe Detarieae of the family Leguminosae. This genus occurs in the Neotropics, and, in Brazil, it can be found across different vegetation formations. Nowadays, Hymenaea has 14 species and two varieties, but some authors suggested changes in the taxonomic interpretation of some infraspecifi…
Breeding programs in sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) have been being conducted for many years in order to select varieties that are more productive and resistant to pest, diseases and abiotic stress. This project is part of a wider project to breeding the species of the genus and involves genetic mapping studies by using various molecular markers. The information obtained will be fundamental t…
Recent molecular phylogenetic studies pointed Psidium as a monophyletic genus. Wherever, the relationships between the species and their limits are unclear and more studies are necessary. Phylogenetic and chromosomal have been supported the taxonomic studies in this genus. Chromosomal studies pointed to uniformity of basic chromosomic number x = 11, with several polyploid species (80%) wi…
