A fijivirus major viroplasm protein shows RNA-stimulated ATPase activity by adopting pentameric and hexameric assemblies of dimers
(American Society for Microbiology, 2023-02)Fijiviruses replicate and package their genomes within viroplasms in a pro cess involving RNA-RNA and RNA-protein interactions. Here, we demonstrate that the 24 C-terminal residues (C-arm) of the P9-1 major viroplasm protein ... -
First Case Reports of Nontuberculous Mycobacterial (NTM) Lung Disease in Ecuador: Important Lessons to Learn
(MDPI, 2023-04)Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) lung infections are often misdiagnosed as tuberculosis, which can lead to ineffective antibiotic treatments. In this report, we present three cases of NTM lung infections in Ecuador that ... -

Variation in the VP1 Gene of Foot-And-Mouth Disease Virus Serotype a Associated with Epidemiological Characteristics of Outbreaks in the 2001 Epizootic in Argentina
(Sage Publishing, 2008)A mixed binomial Bayesian regression model was used to quantify the relation between nucleotide differences in the VP1 gene of Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) serotype A, and epidemiologic characteristics of the outbreaks ... -
The Use of Raw Poultry Waste as Soil Amendment Under Field Conditions Caused a Loss of Bacterial Genetic Diversity Together with an Increment of Eutrophic Risk and Phytotoxic Effects
(Springer, 2022-10-05)Poultry waste has been used as fertilizer to avoid soil degradation caused by the long-term application of chemical fertilizer. However, few studies have evaluated field conditions where livestock wastes have been used for ... -
Brucella canis Group 2 isolated in Argentina = Brucella canis Grupo 2 aislado en Argentina
(Elsevier, 2021-06)The aim of this study was to estimate the diversity and prevalence of both groups of Brucella canis 1 and 2 with and without deletion respectively in different areas of Argentina. A total of 104 bacterial cultures were ... -
The Gln15Arg mutation in the transcriptional factor PALM1 produces multifoliate alfalfa
(Springer, 2022-12)The CRISPR/Cas9 system has proven to be highly valuable for genome editing in several important crops, including the allogamous tetraploid cultivated alfalfa (Medicago sativa). However, the fact that most of the beneficial ... -
Genome-wide association studies in sunflower : towards sclerotinia sclerotiorum and diaporthe/phomopsis resistance breeding
(MDPI, 2022-12)Diseases caused by necrotrophic fungi, such as the cosmopolitan Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and the Diaporthe/Phomopsis complex, are among the most destructive diseases of sunflower worldwide. The lack of complete resistance ... -
Assessment of eucalypts wood lignin content by analytical pyrolysis, comparison with Klason and total lignin contents
(Taylor and Francis, 2021-10)Analytical pyrolysis can be used to determine the lignin content (Py-lignin) in eucalypt woods with a precision (0.37%) similar to the wet reference methods. Good correlations were found between the Py-lignin results and ... -
CRISPR/Cas9‑mediated knockout of SPL13 radically increases lettuce yield
(Springer, 2022-12)Cultivated lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is a diploid (2n = 2x = 18), autogamous species. This popular leafy vegetable is considered one of the first crops (Guo et al. 2022). Currently, lettuce is the third most consumed ... -
ICTV virus taxonomy profile : Sedoreoviridae 2022
(Microbiology Society, 2022-10)Sedoreoviridae is a large family of icosahedral viruses that are usually regarded as non- enveloped with segmented (10–12 linear segments) dsRNA genomes of 18–26 kbp. Sedoreovirids have a broad host range, infecting mammals, ... -
Morphological and genetic diversity of maize landraces along an altitudinal gradient in the Southern Andes
(BioRxiv, 2022-07)Maize (Zea mays ssp. mays) is a major cereal crop worldwide and is traditionally or commercially cultivated almost all over the Americas. The northwestern region of Argentina (NWA) constitutes one of the main diversity ... -
