Distribution and attack of pineapple mealybug to macauba palm Acrocomia aculeata

International Journal of Tropical Insect Science, 2021
The mealybug Dysmicoccus brevipes (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) is an important pest of several agricultural crops and can transmit viruses, and reduce growth and production, and lead to plant mortality. Macauba palm is an oleaginous plant whose oil can be used in the production of biodiesel, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and in human food. In this context,

POST-HARVEST QUALITY OF OZONATED MACAUBA FRUITS FOR BIODIESEL PRODUCTION [PDF]

Revista Caatinga, 2019
ABSTRACT The presence of microorganisms, especially during storage, can lead to the rapid deterioration of macauba fruits (Acrocomia aculeata) and reduce the quality of extracted oil for biodiesel production. An alternative to ensure the quality of the oil is the use of ozone gas, a oxidizing agent that has high antimicrobial and sanitizing power.

How Alliances Build Innovation Capabilities but Narrow Their Redeployment in Amazonian Community‐Based Enterprises

R&D Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on strategic alliances often treats supplier capability development as an outcome, but rarely asks which capabilities are built or what they can be used for. We address this through an embedded single‐case study of a lead‐firm‐orchestrated network in the Brazilian Amazon, comprising six community‐based enterprises (CBEs) supplying ...
