Abrégé
The present invention relates to a specific promoter sequence for the expression of genes of interest in fruit endosperm. The invention also describes DNA constructs that contain the promoter, as well as the method that uses these constructs to produce plants, plant cells or transgenic protoplasts. The expression of the transgene exclusively in the organ of interest allows the exogenous transcript to accumulate only in the fruit and is advantageous over constitutive expression, since it makes it easier to implement strategies that aim at obtaining cultivars with higher added value, such as: adaptation to environmental stresses, resistance to pathogens, pests and agrochemicals, increase in nutritional and therapeutic value, and a new alternative for expression systems in plant organisms to generate more competitive cultivars at lower costs. Moreover, the present invention also describes a sequence with constitutive expression, which offers an alternative for implementing expression systems when constitutive expression is required. The objective of the invention is to increase the economic, social and environmental benefits, as well as the biosafety of genetic engineering.

The present invention relates to a method, apparatus and a system of fast diagnosis of stresses and diseases in higher plants. The proposed methodology is based on the hypothesis of that when a plant is in imbalance; there are changes in its metabolism that render an alteration of the chemical composition of its organs. This chemical alteration leads to a change in the physical properties, such as the fluorescence of the leaves. Due to the complexity of the material of the leaves, the present method proposes that the signal be treated with statistical methods and that the classification is made through softwares based on machine learning. As an example of the application of the invention, the results are shown for the Greening disease in citrus. Currently, Greening is the most severe citrus disease since there is no treatment available for it and due to its high dissemination rate and the fact that it affects all varieties of orange trees, being the diagnosis performed through visual inspection, which renders high subjectivity, high error percentage and the disease is only diagnosed after the expression of the symptoms (˜8 months). During the asymptomatic phase, the infected tree is a source of dissemination of the disease. The present invention can perform the asymptomatic diagnosis of Greening disease from the leaf with a percentage of correct diagnosis higher than 80%.

The present invention relates to a method for identifying target regions at the interface of the monomers that form the PilT protein, with the aim of designing molecules potentially useful for compromising the activity of this protein, thus controlling infectious processes. The method is characterised by the following steps: (i) selection of at least one constitutive amino acid sequence of the PilT monomer; (ii) development of a three-dimensional computer model of the PilT homohexamer structure; (iii) computer analysis to determine the interface-forming amino acid residues (IFR) and the physico-chemical and structural characteristics thereof for all chains of the thus generated hexameric complex templates; (iv) selection of the regions to be used as therapeutic targets (and preferred therapeutic targets) at the monomer interface, on the basis of the intensity of predetermined parameters; (v) computer modelling for designing molecules that are potentially capable of binding to and/or interacting with monomer target regions. In particular, some of the main uses of this technology consist in the control of Xylella fastidiosa bacteria, the etiologic agent of citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC) and Pierce's disease.

Abrégé
Fuel compositions based on biodiesel, alcohols that are not higher alcohols, and plant oil for feeding diesel-cycle motors, enabling more complete burning of fuel, lower pollutant emissions, and reduced internal impurity deposit formation on the internal surface of motors. Since the mixtures are of similar density to diesel oil, and have chemical affinity for diesel oil (due to the fact that they contain biodiesel, which performs the role of co-solvent), the present invention also contemplates compositions of quaternary mixtures, or rather, the combination of the proposed ternary mixtures (biodiesel, alcohols that are not higher alcohols, and plant oil) with petroleum diesel, in varying proportions. The preferential realization of this invention provides substitution of fuel from non-renewable sources (diesel oil) for fuels from renewable sources, which are natural, non-toxic, biodegradable and have excellent technical performance.

Abrégé
The applanation system on air permeated screen (1) of this invention is a versatile instrument for measurement of tissue firmness generated by cell turgor pressure of leaves and organs segments with thin and elastic cell wall of several stalk, leaves, fruits and roots. It is composed by an air source with adjusted maximum flow (6), a porous element (2) inserted on a screen (1), by which air flows, and a device for compression application (4). For measurements, the organ is progressively pressed against the screen until reversible interruption of the air flow crossing the porous element (2) is indicative of adequate applanation of the leaf against the screen. In this condition, one takes the firmness measurement reading as the applanation pressure (5). This firmometer enables postharvest quality evaluation and measurements for ecophysiology studies and irrigation management procedure benchmarking.

The present invention refers to the use of AT(n) insertions in promoter elements for controlling the expression levels of coding sequences in plants. The expression levels of the heat shock protein (Gmhsp17.6-L), when compared in resistant and susceptible individuals in the population, demonstrated that the largest expression levels per quantitative PCR were present in the individuals that contained the largest AT insertions in the promoter region. The invention also refers to gene expression cassettes containing promoter regions of the gene with different numbers of AT insertions fused to the GUS protein, for transforming soybean embryos.

The major aluminum tolerance gene, the SbMATE gene, encodes a root citrate efflux transporter that is Al-inducible at the level of gene transcription and is also Al-activated at the level of protein function. High level of expression of the SbMATE gene and the protein was found in roots. SbMATE orthologs with high degree of sequence homology were found in other higher plants, including rice. Successful transformation of Arabidopsis provides strong evidence that SbMATE can work across species to enhance tolerance to Al in other important crops grown in localities worldwide where Al3+ cations are present in acid soils and are toxic to plants.

Abrégé
The present utility model relates to a series of improvements introduced to the system for harvesting grain directly from plants, without cutting or extracting. Advances were substantial, principally concerning harvesting efficiency as well as the capability for harvesting green beans and green soybeans. The more important modifications concern the rotating shafts, now having self-locking and relatively flexible fixing rings for the rods. The operator can easily release these rings through a locking mechanism at the end of the shaft, in a manner so as to allow the replacement of worn rods. Each pair of rings ideally holds three rods which are mounted in an arch in a manner that there are two ends to each rod, with each pair of rings bearing six bristles.
