Factors Affecting Tocopherol Concentrations in Soybean Seeds
(American Chemical Society, 2016-10-31)Soybean seeds contain several health-beneficial compounds, including tocopherols, which are used by the nutraceutical and functional food industries. Soybean tocopherol concentrations are, however, highly variable. Large ... -
Feasibility of lowering soybean planting density without compromising nitrogen fixation and yield
(American Society of Agronomy, 2014)Adjusting soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] density can be critical to reduce inter-plant competition for water, nutrients, and sunlight, and to increase intercepted radiation, photosynthesis, and biomass production. The ... -
Floral nectaries of Heliocarpus popayanensis and Luehea divaricata (Malvaceae-Grewioideae): structure and ultrastructure
(2018-03)The structure and ultrastructure on floral nectaries of Heliocarpus popayanensis Kunth. and Luehea divaricata Mart (Malvaceae-Grewioideae) were investigated for the first time. The floral nectaries of the analysed species ... -
Formulación y propiedades de biopolímero de recubrimiento para semillas de maní (Arachis hypogaea L.)
(Facultad de Ciencias Agropecuarias, Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, 2021-06-30)En este trabajo se presenta el diseño de una biopelícula de recubrimiento biodegradable, formulada con macromoléculas naturales como almidón, proteína y glicerol para ser aplicada sobre semillas de maní, a fin de aumentar ... -
Genetic variability for responses to short‐ and long‐term salt stress in vegetative sunflower plants
(Wiley, 2012-12)Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) has been rated as moderately salt‐resistant, and variability for salt resistance has been detected within this crop. However, variability in salt‐resistance mechanisms has not been assessed. ... -
Genotypic variation in response to salinity in a new sexual germplasm of Cenchrus ciliaris L.
(2016)As part of breeding program for new salt- tolerant sexual genotypes of Cenchrus ciliaris L., we evaluated the salt- stress response of two new sexual hybrids, obtained by controlled crosses, at seedling and germination stages. -
Germination characteristics of five coexisting neotropical species of Acacia in seasonally dry Chaco forests in Argentina
(Wiley, 2017-04)At a regional scale, habitat heterogeneity can play a very important role in allowing the coexistence of species through their specialization in the use of patches differing in environmental conditions. Here, we explore ... -
Glutathione, a key compound for As accumulation and tolerance in soybean plants treated with AsV and AsIII
(Elsevier, 2019-06)Despite soybean (Glycine max L.) is often cultivated in areas contaminated with arsenic (As) which causes deleterious effects on its growth, little is known about tolerance mechanisms in response to As exposure. In particular, ... -
Grupos sociales relevantes en busca de tecnologías agroecológicas para recuperar la fertilidad del suelo en sistemas hortícolas de Córdoba, Argentina = Relevant social groups in search of agroecological technologies to restore soil fertility in horticulture systems of Cordoba, Argentina
(Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional de Lomas de Zamora, 2023-05-26)En el artículo se analiza una porción de la diversidad de interpretaciones en relación a la propuesta tecnológica de enmiendas orgánicas (compost y bocashi) como una alternativa al problema de fertilidad de suelos hortícolas ... -
Heat and water stressed field-grown soybean : a multivariate study on the relationship between physiological-biochemical traits and yield
(Elsevier, 2018-04)Heat stress (HS) combined with water stress (WS) negatively impact soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] production. The aims of this research were to quantify the combined effect of HS and WS during grain filling (GF) on grain ... -
High night temperature during maize post-flowering increases night respiration and reduces photosynthesis, growth and kernel number
(Wiley, 2022-03-15)In the last years globally, daily night-time low temperatures have increased more than twice compared with maximum temperatures. There is little evidence about maize growth and yield responses to high night temperature ... -
High Sugar Concentration Inhibits TOR Signaling Pathway in Arabidopsis thaliana
(Springer, 2023-01-20)Sugars are not only energy sources, but also central molecular signals that regulate growth, development, and response to environmental stresses. It is well recognized that sugars activate TOR kinase, the key integrator ... -
Identification of QTLs for shoot and root growth under ionic–osmotic stress in Lotus, using a RIL population
(CSIRO Publishing, 2014-02-20)The genus Lotus includes a group of forage legume species including genotypes of agronomic interest and model species. In this work, an experimental hydroponic growth system allowed the discrimination of growth responses ... -
In vitro selection and characterization of buffelgrass somaclones with different responses to water stress
(2017-08)Buffelgrass is a forage grass that reproduces mainly by apomixis. In species with this reproduction mode, in vitro selection allows the incorporation of alternatives in a breeding program. The aims were to define a protocol ... -
Individual and combined effects of drought and heat on antioxidant parameters and growth performance in Buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) genotypes
(2018-11)Drought and heat stress are two critical threats to crop growth and sustainable agriculture worldwide. In the last decade, many studies focused on the response of crops to a single stress, nevertheless studying the response ... -
Interactions between soybean, Bradyrhizobium japonicum and Soybean mosaic virus: the effects depend on the interaction sequence
(2019-06-25)The symbiotic interaction between soybean and nitrogen-fixing rhizobia can lead to plant growth promotion and induced systemic responses. Symbiotic interactions may increase tolerance/resistance to abiotic/biotic stress ... -
Interspecific hybridization improves the performance of Lotus spp. under saline stress
