  • Method for promoting an increase in plant biomass, productivity, and drought resistance
    Patent number: 11525143
    Abstract: Described are methods for promoting increase in plant biomass and yield. This increase has its visible effects in organs such as leaf, stem, root and production of fruits and seeds. Further described is the increase in tolerance of those plants to drought, generating plants better adapted to the environmental changes, improving their growth, biomass and yield.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 4, 2020
    Date of Patent: December 13, 2022
    Assignee: Universidade Federal Do Rio De Janeiro
    Inventors: Adriana Silva Hemerly, Paulo Cavalcanti Gomes Ferreira, Pan Gong, Hilde Nelissen, Dirk Inzé, Maria Fatima Grossi De Sá, Marcos Fernando Basso, Carolina Vianna Morgante, Maria Eugenia Lisei-De-Sa
