  5. Theme: Bioeconomy Food crops biofortification, Nutritional genomics, Microbial-Improved Plant Nutrition and Bioremediation Labs: • Food crops biofortification with essential micronutrients (iron, iodine, selenium, and zinc) for human and animal health, physiological genomics of nutrients uptake in cowpea, forage grasses and rice (AR).   • Stress tolerance and seed priming in major staple crops (AR). • Beneficial soil microbial resources for improving nitrogen fertilizers efficiency on corn, rice and wheat crops in the Cerrado increases profitability and reduces ground water pollution (MT and OA) • Phytoremediation potential of tropical legumes in soils contaminated with copper, boron, and manganese (LC and TN).

  6. Theme: Bioeconomy Forest Conservation Genetics Research Group Research team: Dr. Alexandre Sebbenn (AS), Prof. Dr. Mario Moraes (MM), Dr. Miguel Freitas (MF), Dr. Ananda de Aguiar (AA), and 14 graduate students Funding: CNPq; FAPESP. Partnership: São Paulo State Forest Institute EMBRAPA Forests Thünen Institute of Forest (Germany).

  7. Theme: Bioeconomy Forest Conservation Genetics Research Group • Population and quantitative genetics, genetic breeding and conservation genetics of native tree species from both the Brazilian Amazon and the Cerrado biomes (AA, AS, MF and MM).   • Optimization of seed collection sample sizes for the establishment of ex-situ genetic conservation and environmental restoration (AS, AA, MF and MM). • Impacts of selective logging on the mating system, contemporary pollen and seed dispersal/flow and the genetic diversity of Brazilian native forest tree species to ensure genetic sustainability and legal timber availability (AS). • Application of DNA fingerprints based on SNPs for timber assignment test analyses to identify the origin of the internationally traded wood (AS).
