Desenvolvimento de uma metodologia rápida e de baixo custo para diagnóstico da Anemia Falciforme

Abstract

According to estimates from the World Health Organization (WHO), every year are born around 3.500 children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in Brazil and 20% of them won't reach five years old because of complications directly related to the disease. The SCA is a disease of the hemoglobinopathies group extremely common and is caused by a molecular alteration in the chromosome 11, when occurs the replacement from the acid glutamic acid by amino acid valine in the chain of position 6 of the βglobin. In Brazil is believed that the SCA is the hereditary disease that prevails more

Canonical correlations between traits of cassava plants propagated by an adaptation of rapid multiplication method1

“…Sprinkling irrigation was performed daily up to the 15th day after transplanting for all seasons when no precipitation was registered. Water supply is important for establishing cassava seedlings produced by the rapid multiplication method (Santos et al, 2009).…”

“…Despite the existence of adaptations of this method for the Brazilian cultivation conditions (Santos et al, 2009), there is little information on which stem cutting traits have the greatest influence on quality-seedling production, as well as which traits measured in seedlings contribute to higher stem and root yields. There are few reports on root Canonical correlations between traits of cassava plants propagated by an adaptation of rapid multiplication method yield at the first crop from the transplanting of seedlings produced by the rapid multiplication method.…”

“…There are few reports on root Canonical correlations between traits of cassava plants propagated by an adaptation of rapid multiplication method yield at the first crop from the transplanting of seedlings produced by the rapid multiplication method. According to Santos et al (2009), in the first year of cultivation with the use of seedlings produced by the rapid multiplication method occurs the production of small and uneven shaped roots.…”
