Exploring the cellulolytic activity of environmental mycobacteria
(Elsevier, 2024-07)Although studies on non-tuberculous mycobacteria have increased in recent years because they cause a considerable proportion of infections, their cellulolytic system is still poorly studied. This study presents a ... -
ICTV virus taxonomy profile : Spinareoviridae 2022
(Microbiology Society, 2022-11)Spinareoviridae is a large family of icosahedral viruses that are usually regarded as non-enveloped with segmented (9–12 linear segments) dsRNA genomes of 23–29 kbp. Spinareovirids have a broad host range, infecting animals, ... -
Genome-wide diversity in lowland and highland maize landraces from southern South America: population genetics insights to assist conservation
(BioRxiv, 2024-02)Maize (Zea mays ssp. mays L.) landraces are traditional American crops with high genetic variability that conform a source of original alleles for conventional maize breeding. Northern Argentina, one the southernmost regions ... -
Reference gene selection for gene expression studies using RT-qPCR in virus-infected planthoppers
(BioMed Central, 2011-12)Background: Planthoppers not only severely affect crops by causing mechanical damage when feeding but are also vectors of several plant virus species. The analysis of gene expression in persistently infected planthoppers ... -
Baculovirus vectors induce the production of interferons in swine : their potential in the development of antiviral strategies
(MDPI, 2021-11)The huge variety of viruses affecting swine represents a global threat. Since vaccines against highly contagious viruses last several days to induce protective immune responses, antiviral strategies for rapid control of ... -
Discoidin domain receptor 1 regulates ErbB2/ErbB3 signaling in mammary epithelial cells
(Wiley, 2022-11)The ErbB2 receptor tyrosine kinase plays a key role in mammary gland development. It forms large clusters which serve as signaling platforms for integration of extracellular information. The discoidin domain receptor (DDR) ... -
Efficient CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing in alfalfa using a public germplasm
(Frontiers Media, 2021-07)Because its ability to acquire large amounts of nitrogen by symbiosis, tetraploid alfalfa is the main source of vegetable proteins in meat and milk production systems in temperate regions. Alfalfa cultivation also adds ... -
Multiomics analyses reveal the roles of the ASR1 transcription factor in tomato fruits
(Oxford University Press, 2021-09)The transcription factor ASR1 (ABA, STRESS, RIPENING 1) plays multiple roles in plant responses to abiotic stresses as well as being involved in the regulation of central metabolism in several plant species. However, despite ... -
Study of coinfection with local strains of infectious bursal disease virus and infectious bronchitis virus in specific pathogen-free chickens
(Elsevier, 2023-12)Immunosuppressive diseases cause great losses in the poultry industry, increasing the susceptibility to infections by other pathogens and promoting a suboptimal response to vaccination. Among them, infectious bursal disease ... -
Evaluation of hydrothermal and alkaline pretreatment routes for xylooligosaccharides production from sugar cane bagasse using different combinations of recombinant enzymes
(Springer, 2023-10)Xylan is the most abundant constituent of hemicellulose fraction of lignocellulosic biomass. Short xylooligosaccharides (XOS), obtained via xylan hydrolysis, have well-known prebiotic and antioxidant properties that are ... -
Biological inoculants and chemical fertilizers application produce differential effects on rhizobacterial community structure associated to peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) and maize (Zea mays L.) plants
(Springer, 2023-11)The use of biological inoculants in replacement of the application of chemical fertilizers is a desirable strategy taking into account it is more sustainable and economically less costly. Considering that agricultural ... -
Evaluation of different nitrogen sources on growth and fermentation performance for enhancing ethanol production by wine yeasts
(Elsevier, 2023-12)The utilization of grape juice from low oenological value grape varieties for bioethanol production represent an alternative for diversification and value addition in viticulture. Optimizing Very High Gravity (VHG) ... -
Assessing the hidden diversity underlying consensus sequences of SARS-CoV-2 using VICOS, a novel bioinformatic pipeline for identification of mixed viral populations
(Elsevier, 2023-02)Introduction: Coinfection with two SARS-CoV-2 viruses is still a very understudied phenomenon. Although next generation sequencing methods are very sensitive to detect heterogeneous viral populations in a sample, there is ... -
Subfunctionalization probably drives the emergence of plant growth‑promoting genes
(Springer, 2022-07)The duplication and divergence of stress-related genes might help microbes adapt to different environments. However, little is known about this type of subfunctionalization process in microbes. We here examined the evolution ... -
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 antigens produced in transgenic lettuce effective as an oral vaccine in mice
(Springer, 2023-10)Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 is a food-borne pathogen where ruminant farm animals, mainly bovine, serve as reservoirs. Bovine vaccination has been used to prevent disease outbreaks, and the current ... -
Identification and molecular characterization of Orf virus infection in occupationally exposed women in South America
(Elsevier, 2023-06)Contagious Ecthyma (CE) is a severe exanthematous dermatitis caused by the Orf virus (ORFV) that mainly affects domestic small ruminants such as sheep and goats. It is a worldwide-distributed occupational zoonosis, ... -
Argentine navy icebreaker ship “Almirante Irizar” sludge microbial composition analysis for biohydrogen production

On the origin of neo-sex chromosomes in the neotropical dragonflies Rhionaeschna bonariensis and R. planaltica (Aeshnidae, Odonata)
(MDPI, 2022-12)Odonata have holokinetic chromosomes. About 95% of species have an XX/X0 sex chromosome system, with heterogametic males. There are species with neo-XX/neo-XY sex chromosomes resulting from an X chromosome/autosome fusion. ... -
