Not all toxic butterflies are toxic: high intra- and interspecific variation in sequestration in subtropical swallowtails
(2017-12)
Many herbivorous insects make use of plant secondary metabolites by consuming and storing
these toxic compounds in their body tissue or integument, thereby obtaining chemical defense against their
natural enemies. ...
The Morphological Basis of vicuña wool: Skin and gland structure in Vicugna vicugna (Molina 1782)
(2016-04)
The vicuña (Vicugna vicugna) is the smallest member of the Camelidae with one of the most valuable fibers in the world. However, little is known of the structural basis for this fiber or of the skin glands used in chemical ...
An In Vitro Method for Studying the Three-Way Interaction between Soybean, Rhizophagus irregularis and the Soil-Borne Pathogen Fusarium virguliforme
(2017-06)
In this work, we described an in vitro system adequate for investigating the pathosystem soybean/arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF)/Fusarium virguliforme. Pre-mycorrhized plantlets with Rhizophagus irregularis were infected ...
Meat quality traits in the Greater rhea (Rhea americana) as influenced by muscle, sex and age
(2018-02)
Meat from the Greater rhea (Rhea americana) could compete with traditional red meats, diversifying the market of protein products of animal origin. The meat from 32 rheas was used to study quality aspects and this included ...
Efecto del porcentaje de pildorado sobre la implantación y productividad de alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.)
(2017-05-19)
El pildorado consiste en revestir a la semilla de alfalfa con una mezcla de
rizobios, un fungicida o un insecticida, carbonato de calcio y un aglutinante.
El objetivo fue comparar porcentajes de pildorado (10%, 20%, 30%, ...
Distribution of anisakid nematodes parasitizing rajiform skates under commercial exploitation in the Southwestern Atlantic
(2018-02)
In order to evaluate the infestation by anisakids present in elasmobranchs and their distribution in the Argentine Sea, this study was carried at a regional scale with the following aims: 1) to identify those anisakid ...
Plant microRNAs: Recent Advances and Future Challenges
(2014-12)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small ∼20–24 nt species of non-coding RNAs that modulate plant gene expression by means of gene silencing through sequence-specific inhibition of target mRNAs. MiRNAs derive from pol-II transcription ...
Combined high hydrostatic pressure and thermal treatments fully inactivate trypsin inhibitors and lipoxygenase and improve protein solubility and physical stability of calcium-added soymilk
(2016-06)
The objective of this work was to assess the possibility of obtaining calcium-added soymilk with acceptable characteristics regarding protein solubility and physical stability, and inactivation of trypsin inhibitors and ...
Overexpression of glycine-rich RNA-binding protein in tomato renders fruits with higher protein content after cold storage
(2018)
Glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins (GR-RBPs) are involved in RNA processing and also some of them are output signals of the circadian clock. In tomato, one GR-RBP gene family (LeGRP1) is composed by three highly homologous ...
The relative importance of soil properties and regional climate as drivers of productivity in southern Patagonia’s Nothofagus antarctica forests
(2018-06)
Soil texture and temperature-related variables were the variables that most contributed to Nothofagus antarctica forest height in southern Patagonia. This information may be useful for improving forest management, for ...
