The barley chloroplast mutator (cpm) mutant: all roads lead to the Msh1 gene
(MDPI, 2022-02)The barley chloroplast mutator (cpm) is a nuclear gene mutant that induces a wide spectrum of cytoplasmically inherited chlorophyll deficiencies. Plastome instability of cpm seedlings was determined by identification of a ... -
The benefits of foliar inoculation with Azospirillum brasilense in soybean are explained by an auxin signaling model
(2018-09)Azospirillum sp. is one of the most studied genera of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). The ability of Azospirillum sp. to promote plant growth has been associated with its ability to produce several phytohormones, ... -
The chlorotic symptom induced by Sunflower chlorotic mottle virus is associated with changes in redox-related gene expression and metabolites
(Elsevier, 2012-08-18)Systemic infections are commonly associated with changes in host metabolism and gene expression. Sunflower chlorotic mottle virus (SuCMoV) causes systemic infection with sugar increase, photoinhibition and increase in ... -
The chromosome region including the earliness per se locus Eps-Am1 affects the duration of early developmental phases and spikelet number in diploid wheat
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2008-10)Earliness per se genes are those that regulate flowering time independently of vernalization and photoperiod, and are important for the fine tuning of flowering time and for the wide adaptation of wheat to different ... -
The complex dependence of non-enzymatic browning development on processing conditions in maize snacks
(Elsevier, 2021-04-30)The complex dependence of non-enzymatic browning development on processing conditions was analyzed in the production of maize snacks. The influence of the amount of water added to maize flour, toasting time, and toasting ... -
The conserved brassinosteroid-related transcription factor BIM1a negatively regulates fruit growth in tomato
(Oxford University Press, 2021-02)Brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroid hormones that play key roles in plant development and defense. Our goal is to harness the extensive knowledge of the Arabidopsis BR signaling network to improve productivity in crop ... -
The Current and Future Role of Microbial Culture Collections in Food Security Worldwide
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2021-01-14)Food security is the pillar of nutritional wellbeing for food availability, and is necessary to satisfy all physiological needs to thus maintain the general wellbeing of populations. However, global agricultural deficiencies ... -
The cytosolic invertase NI6 affects vegetative growth, flowering, fruit set, and yield in tomato
(Oxford University Press, 2021-03)Sucrose metabolism is important for most plants, both as the main source of carbon and via signaling mechanisms that have been proposed for this molecule. A cleaving enzyme, invertase (INV) channels sucrose into sink ... -
The DNAJ gene family in yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis): genome-wide identification, structural characterization, orthology based classification and expression analysis
(Instituto de Pesquisas Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro, 2023-05-08)Dry leaves and twigs of yerba mate are widely infusion-consumed in southern Southamerica. Endemic and adapted to the Atlantic Forest, its extensive full-sun monoculture links to diverse biotic (pest, pathogens) and abiotic ... -
The dynamics of three shrub species in a fire-prone temperate savanna: the interplay between the seed bank, seed rain and fire regime
(Springer, 2013-01)A model was developed to assess how the seed rain and fire regime affect seed bank dynamics and seedling establishment of three native shrub species (Acanthostyles buniifolius, Baccharis pingraea and Baccharis dracunculifolia) ... -
The effect of Leucaena leucocephala on beef production and its toxicity in the Chaco Region of Argentina
(CIAT, 2014)Hedgerows of the fodder tree legume, Leucaena leucocephala ssp. glabrata (leucaena), planted with a companion grass, provide productive, profitable and sustainable tropical pasture (Shelton and Dalzell 2007). Although ... -
The Effect of X-Rays on Cytological Traits of Tuta absoluta (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)
(2016)The tomato leafminer, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) is one of the most important pests of tomato. With the purpose of developing environmentally friendly control tactics such as the inherited sterility ... -
The effects of high hydrostatic pressure at subzero temperature on the quality of ready-to-eat cured beef carpaccio
(Elsevier, 2012-12)We compared the application of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) on unfrozen carpaccio (HHP at 20 °C) and on previously-frozen carpaccio (HHP at − 30 °C). HHP at 20 °C changed the color. The pressure increase from 400 to 650 ... -
The efficacy of Steinernema feltiae in the control of Cydia pomonella in organic apple and pear orchards of Patagonia Argentina and its impact on local populations of entomopathogenic nematodes
