Water-mediated changes in plant–plant and biological soil crust–plant interactions in a temperate forest ecosystem
(Copernicus Publications, 2019-04-09)In the quest to understand how biotic interactions respond to climate change, one area that remains poorly explored is how interactions involving organisms other than vascular plants will respond. However the interactions ... -
Weak trophic links between a crab-spider and the effective pollinators of a rewardless orchid
(2015-01)Sit and wait predators hunting on flowers are considered to be exploiters of plant–pollinator mutualisms. Several studies have shown that plant–pollinator interactions can be highly susceptible to the impact of a third ... -
What can possibly go wrong? The risks of introducing soil microorganisms from Antarctica into South America = ¿Qué puede salir mal? : Los riesgos de introducir microorganismos del suelo de la Antártida en América del Sur
(2015)Endophytic fungi form mutualistic associations with plant roots which can increase plant survival and resistance to stress. Recently, it has been proposed that endophytic fungi from Antarctica should be used to facilitate ... -
What do domestic livestock eat in northern Patagonian rangelands?
(CSIRO Publishing, 2013-02)The Patagonian rangelands are dominated by steppes interspersed with meadows (locally called mallines), which are small but permanently humid areas, characterised by high spring–summer quality and productivity of grasses ... -
What do we talk about when we talk about Social-Ecological Systems? A Literature Review
(2018-08-20)In the last decade, probably in response to global changes and the environmental crisis, the use of the term “social-ecological system” (SES) in scientific literature has grown. This is certainly a sign that the need and ... -
What is hot in tree rings? The wood density of surviving Douglas-firs to the 2003 drought and heat wave
(Elsevier, 2008-08)In a global warming scenario, drought and heat waves like the one that occurred in 2003 in Europe are expected to become more intense and frequent. This extreme climate event strongly affected the hydraulic balance in many ... -
Where to find structural grade timber: a case study in ponderosa pine based on stand and tree level factors
(Elsevier, 2020-03-01)Using portable acoustic tools, measurements of dynamic modulus of elasticity (Ed) were made in standing ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa (Dougl. ex Laws)) trees (n =437) growing in 22 stands encompassing the range of ... -
Why do Pinus species have different growth dominance patterns than Eucalyptus species? A hypothesis based on differential physiological plasticity
(Elsevier, 2011-03-15)It has been observed that Eucalyptus stands show high growth dominance levels while Pinus stands show null or low growth dominance levels. We hypothesized that this differential behaviour is linked to a higher degree of ... -
Wind disrupts trail pheromone communication in the leaf-cutting ant Acromyrmex lobicornis
(Elsevier, 2022-10)Although wind is a ubiquitous component of ecological systems and might affect pheromone communication, its effects have not been studied in depth. To test whether wind impacts trail pheromone behaviour, we studied the ... -
Within-population variability in architectural traits and suitability to forestry conditions in Nothofagus nervosa (= N. alpina; Nothofagaceae)
(2013-07)Context: There is evidence that Nothofagus nervosa (= N. alpina) is suitable for timber production in temperate regions due to its wood quality and fast growth. However, high intra-specific variability in the architectural ... -
Wood density proxies of adaptive traits linked with resistance to drought in Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco)
(Springer, 2014-10)A comparison of dead and surviving Douglas fir trees following the 2003 drought was made to define proxies of adaptive traits for resistance to drought. Increment cores were sampled from trees from three French regions: ... -
Wood phenotyping tools: properties, functions and quality : Reporte técnico final. Período que cubre este reporte: desde el 01/04/2015 al 31/03/2019
(EEA Bariloche, INTA, 2020-09)Muchos aspectos de la ecología de bosques y la cadena de valor de la industria forestal se relacionan con propiedades de la madera. Estas propiedades se pueden optimizar mediante mejoramiento genético, operaciones silvícolas ... -
Worldwide diversity of endophytic fungi and insects associated with dormant tree twigs
(Springer, 2022-03)International trade in plants and climate change are two of the main factors causing damaging tree pests (i.e. fungi and insects) to spread into new areas. To mitigate these risks, a large-scale assessment of tree-associated ... -
¿Y porqué no cultivar sorgo?
(2015)El cultivo de sorgo en Valle Medio, siempre ha estado relegado y ha sido el “hermano feo” del maíz. Debemos cambiar esa mirada y darle la posibilidad que se merece para demostrar todo su potencial. -
Yeast and yeast‐like fungi associated with dry indehiscent fruits of Nothofagus nervosa in Patagonia, Argentina
(Oxford Academic Press, 2012-04)Nothofagus nervosa (Raulí) is a native tree species that yields valuable timber. It was overexploited in the past and is currently included in domestication and conservation programs. Several research programs have focused ... -
“Yo encontré a la Comunicación en el INTA, y el INTA me metió a la Comunicación en la cabeza”
(EEA Alto Valle, INTA, 2020)Por una u otra razón, no estamos institucionalmente habituados a reconocer (destacar) (señalar) a los Extensionistas o Investigadores que hicieron la historia de las Estaciones Experimentales del INTA. Menudo trabajito ... -
Yuyos que matan
(Universidad Nacional del Comahue, 2020)Desde principio del siglo pasado se han identificado diferentes plantas tóxicas que afectan al ganado de la región patagónica. Nuevos conocimientos hacen posible mejorar su manejo, para evitar intoxicaciones. -
Zero net livelihood degradation - the quest for a multidimensional protocol to combat desertification
(2016)Recientemente se propuso el concepto de degradación de la tierra neta nula como base para un futuro protocolo de la Convención de las Naciones Unidas de lucha contra la desertificación para reducir la degradación mundial ... -
Zonas genéticas de lenga y ñire en Argentina. Y su aplicación en la conservación y manejo de los recursos forestales
(Ediciones INTA, 2017)Nothofagus pumilio, lenga, y Nothofagus antartica, ñire, son dos especies relevantes para Argentina y la Región Andino Patagónica. Son las únicas especies arbóreas que se encuentran en toda la región, creciendo en ambientes ... -
