Plant Production and Associated Bioprocesses

Lines of Research

1) Plant Production and Biotechnology

Description: the objective of this line of research is the study and development of more efficient and productive agricultural systems, with the use of biotechnological and conventional tools and aiming at the strengthening of productive chains and the consolidation of the Brazilian agribusiness.

2) Bioprocesses Associated with Agriculture and Industry

Description: the objective of this line of research is the study of biological processes (bioprocesses) that influence plant production in the contexts of soil, plant and microorganisms, as well as those related to the transformation of raw material (fermentative processes), with an emphasis on active microorganisms, in the optimization of the culture conditions, in the evaluation of the produced metabolites and in the quality of the product based on its physicochemical, microbiological and sensory properties.
