Screening for molecules controlling essential biological processes in insects through gene silencing (RNAi), genomic editing (CRISPR-Cas9) and global gene expression analysis (RNA-seq) techniques aiming at the development of sustainable biotechnological solutions to control agricultural pests.

Anete Pereira de Souza

My main research area is the study of genetic diversity in different biological systems, its use and applications in plant breeding, conservation of wild species and new biotechnological targets in fungi for biomass degradation. These studies have been carried out mainly through molecular biology approaches, genetic and genomic analyses, biotechnology, computational biology, bioinformatics and statistical genetic tools.
