Abstract:
... Technical efficiency is one of the main performance indicators in a sugar and ethanol mill, and it can be indicated by the percentage of cane sugar recovered and transformed into sugar, ethanol, and other products. Thus, given the sector's current crisis, to increase competition and optimize the performance, productive units need to improve their efficiency in relation to the use of inputs. Theref ...

Abstract:
... Many new questions on the regulation of shoot branching have been raised in recent years, prompting a review and reassessment of the role of each signal involved. Sugars and their signaling networks have been attributed a major role in the early events of axillary bud outgrowth, whereas cytokinin appears to play a critical role in the modulation of this process in response to the environment. Perc ...
