O aumento na demanda mundial por energia, a perspectiva de encolhimento dos recursos energéticos e a preocupação global com a questão ambiental, despertaram o interesse por fontes alternativas de energia. A biomassa lignocelulósica é abundante e de baixo custo, com potencial para complementar a produção em larga escala de combustíveis. A degradação das moléculas constituintes da parede celular à açúcares fermentescíveis e então à etanol, ocorre através da hidrólise enzimática da biomassa. Contudo, a utilização de enzimas para esse fim encontra-se em estágio exploratório e representa um gargalo na implementação de tecnologias de etanol 2G em escala industrial, desencadeando a busca de celulases bioquimicamente mais ativas, estáveis e economicamente viáveis. O presente trabalho visou a caracterização da endoglucanase I do fungo Trichoderma harzianum, e para isso foi realizada expressão, ensaios bioquímicos e biofísicos do domínio catalítico (ThCel7B-CCD) e da proteína inteira (ThCel7B-full). A enzima exibiu um perfil acidofílico, com atividade ótima em pH 3,0 a 55°C. A proteína também se mostrou capaz de hidrolisar uma variedade de substratos, sendo a maior atividade hidrolítica em β-glucano (75 U mg-1). Ao analisar a estabilidade térmica medida a 55°C em pH 5, a atividade residual manteve-se intacta por mais de 2 meses. Outra característica relevante foi o elevado grau de sinergismo entre ThCel7B e ThCel7A. Análises de microscopia eletrônica de flocos de aveia submetidas à hidrólise com ThCel7B evidenciaram os efeitos de degradação do substrato em relação às amostras controle. O conjunto desses resultados, além de importante para a compreensão do mecanismo molecular de ThCel7B e de outras endoglucanases da família GH7, também revelou uma enzima de interesse biotecnológicos uma vez que o comportamento ácido e sua estabilidade térmica são características relevantes para aplicações industriais sob condições extremamente ácidas.

The Centropomidae family consists of three genera, Centropomus, Lates and Psammoperca. Centropomus is the most diverse group, with six Centropomus species occur in the Western Atlantic Ocean C. poeyi Chávez, 1961, C. parallelus Poey, 1860, C. mexicanus Bocourt, 1868, C. pectinatus Poey, 1860 and C. ensiferus Poey, 1860. Some of these species are considered cryptic, because of its morphological traits showed low resolution for identification purposes. Despite showing great interest as a natural resource and fish culture, aspects of their diversity and karyotypic patterns are poorly understood. In this work morphological identification and comparison of mitochondrial 16S gene sequence were used to identify the species of the genus Centropomus occurring in Rio Grande do Norte, northeastern Brazil. Two sepecies were identified, C. undecimalis and C. mexicanus, which had the chromosomal aspects analyzed, through Classical cytogenetic method analyzes (conventional staining, C-banding, Ag-NORs), fluorochrome staining AT- and GC-specific, replication bands by incorporating of the base analog 5-Bromo-2’-deoxyuridine (5-BrdU), in situ chromosomal mapping of (TTAGGG)n sequences and in situ chromosome mapping 18S and 5S rRNA genes. Both species show 2n=48 acrocentric chromosomes, with ribosomal sites (Ag-NOR/18S rDNA/ Mitramycin+) in second chromosomal pair, in telomeric position on the long arm in C. mexicanus and interstitial in C. undecimalis. The nuclear organization pair (pair 2) shown a resolutive cytotaxonomic marker for these two species. The generated data reveal a lower species diversity than previously believed, suggesting that greater attention should be paid in taxonomic identification of the species, in view of optimize commercial actions exploitation, biological conservation and cultivation.

The identification of genotypes for drought tolerance has a great importance in breeding programs. The aim of this study was to characterize genotypes of beans in response to drought tolerance in different reproductive stages through physiologic, agronomic and molecular analysis. The experiment was conducted in greenhouse, using a randomized block design with four replicates; 10 cultivars: ANFC 9, ANFP 110, BRS Esplendor, BRSMG Realce, IPR Siriri, IPR Tangará, IPR Tuiuiu, IPR Uirapuru, IAC Imperador and IAC Milênio under two conditions of irrigation: plants irrigated during their entire life cycle, and plants under irrigation suppression in the reproductive stage (R7) until 16% of field capacity, when the irrigation was restored. In the last four days of stress, the gas exchanges were analyzed, and in the last day of stress was analyzed the percentage of closed stomata in the abaxial surface of the leaves, collected in different times of the day (9h, 12h, 15h and 18h). Additionally, plant samples were collected for the following analysis: fresh and dry mass of leaves, stems and legumes, and proline content in leaves and roots. The plants were harvested at the physiological maturity and the yield components and grain yield were determined. In addition, in order to identify polymorphisms in the sequences of promoters and genes related to drought, seven pairs of primers were tested on the group of genotypes. The drought susceptibility indexes (ISS) ranged from 0.65 to 1.10 in the group of genotypes, which the lowest values observed were for IAC Imperador (0.65) and BRS Esplendor (0.87), indicating the ability of these two genotypes to maintain grain yield under water stress condition. All genotypes showed reduction in yield components under water stress. IAC Imperador (43.4%) and BRS Esplendor (60.6%) had the lowest reductions in productivity and kept about 50% of the stomata closed during all the different times evaluated at last day of irrigation suppression. IAC Imperador showed greater water use efficiency and CO2 assimilation rate under drought stress. IPR Tuiuiú, IPR Tangará and IAC Imperador had the highest proline concentrations in the roots. Under water stress condition, there was a strong positive correlation (0.696) between the percentage of stomata closed with the number of grains per plant (0.696) and the fresh mass of leaves (0.731), the maximum percentage of stomata closed 73.71% in water stress. The accumulation of proline in the root was the character that most contributed to the divergence between the genotypes under water deficit, but not always the genotypes that have accumulated more proline were the most tolerant. The polymorphisms in DNA of coding and promoting sequences of transcription factors studied in this experiment did not discriminate tolerant genotypes from the sensitive ones to water stress.
