• Absorción de agua y rendimiento de maíz en campos bajos ¿Es el horizonte nátrico una limitante? 

      Garello, Federico José; Aguero, M.A.; Crespo, M.; Cicchino, Mariano Andres; Melani, Esteban; Ploschuk, Edmundo L.; Taboada, Miguel Angel (Asociación Argentina de la Ciencia del Suelo, 2020-10-13)
      Los campos bajos son una de las últimas áreas de expansión de la frontera agrícola en nuestro país. Un ejemplo es la Cuenca del Salado, que es una región que en la última década mostró incrementos de la superficie sembrada ...
    • Eco-physiology of maize crops under combined stresses 

      Cagnola, Juan I.; D´Andrea, Karina Elizabeth; Rotili, Diego Hernán; Mercau, Jorge Luis; Ploschuk, Edmundo L.; Maddonni, Gustavo Angel; Otegui, María Elena; Casal, Jorge José (Wiley, 2023-12)
      The yield of maize (Zea mays L.) crops depends on their ability to intercept sunlight throughout the growing cycle, transform this energy into biomass and allocate it to the kernels. Abiotic stresses affect these ...
    • Mesophyll conductance modulates photosynthetic rate in cotton crops exposed to heat stress under field conditions 

      Mercado Álvarez, Kelly; Bertero, Héctor Daniel; Paytas, Marcelo Javier; Ploschuk, Edmundo L. (Wiley, 2021-08)
      Cotton is often exposed to high temperatures during the reproductive stage, which can negatively affect its productivity. The objectives were to: i) test whether heat stress impacts during the reproductive stage on ...
    • Physiological responses and post-stress recovery in field-grown maize exposed to high temperatures at flowering 

      Neiff, Nicolás; Ploschuk, Edmundo L.; Valentinuz, Oscar Rodolfo; Andrade, Fernando Hector (Southern Cross Publishing, 2019-12)
      Heat stress affects physiological traits and biomass production in major crops, including maize. We researched the responses of maximum efficiency of photosystem II (Fv/Fm), relative cell injury (RCI), stomatal conductance ...
    • Short-term responses to flooding stress of three Prunus rootstocks 

      Ziegler, Victor H.; Ploschuk, Edmundo L.; Weibel, Antonio Marcelo; Insausti, Pedro (2017-10-20)
      In fruit trees, flooding stress can affect plant survival and growth, and tolerance to root anoxia is determined by rootstock characteristics. Similarly to almond, peach trees are also among the Prunus species proving most ...
    • Soil water availability and water absorption by maize in sodic soils with high water table 

      Garello, Federico José; Ploschuk, Edmundo L.; Melani, Esteban; Taboada, Miguel Angel (Elsevier, 2023-05)
      Context: Because of the increasing prices of commodities over the last decades, crops like maize (Zea mays L.) are being cultivated in lowland sodic soils with physical-chemical constraints, such as those having natric ...
