An assessment of the genetic diversity of Cedrela balansae C. DC. (Meliaceae) in Northwestern Argentina by means of combined use of SSR and AFLP molecular markers
(2013-04)Cedrela balansae C.DC. is a native tree species in Argentina, severely exploited for its timber features. We performed a molecular analysis to understand the genetic diversity and its distribution in eight remaining ... -
An assessor-specific Bayesian multi-threshold mixed model for analyzing ordered categorical traits in tree breeding
(Springer, 2013-12)Many traits of biological interest in tree breeding are assessed using more than two ordered discrete categories. These scores have a more or less arbitrary and subjective assignment by the assessors, which could lead to ... -

Behavioral and physiological changes in the passerine Agelaioides badius following the ingestion of coated seeds with imidacloprid in a 30-day experiment
(Elsevier, 2023-12)The wide use of neonicotinoid seed treatment represents a hazard for farmland birds that feed on treated seeds. This study aimed to characterize the long-term effects of the neonicotinoid imidacloprid (IMI) in the passerine ... -
Behavioral and physiological response of the passerine bird agelaioides badius to seeds coated with imidacloprid.
(Springer, 2023-09-01)Neonicotinoids are globally used insecticides, and there are increasing evidence on their negative efects on birds. This study is aimed at characterizing the behavioral and physiological efects of the neonicotinoid ... -
Biodiversity loss in deforestation frontiers: Linking occupancy modelling and physiological stress indicators to understand local extinctions
(Elsevier, 2019-05-27)Tropical deforestation is a main driver of the global biodiversity crisis. Impact assessments typically focus on species' presence, which means impacts are detected when local extinctions have occurred – and thus when it ... -
Biological evaluation of Valeriana extracts from Argentina with potent cholinesterase inhibition for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders and their comorbidities the case of Valeriana carnosa Sm. (Caprifoliaceae) studied in mice
(MDPI, 2023-01-01)Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder whose pathophysiology in cludes the abnormal accumulation of proteins (e.g., β-amyloid), oxidative stress, and alterations in neurotransmitter levels, mainly ... -
Biomarker and hematological fieldwork with amphibians: is it necessary to sample all night?
(Springer, 2020-03)In the context of the global amphibian crisis, biomonitoring constitutes a valuable assessment tool to provide critical up to date information on the status and health of amphibians worldwide. The aim of the current study ... -
Biomonitoring of alterations in fish that inhabit anthropic aquatic environments in a basin from semi-arid regions
