Bot-graphy: An original technique for plant anatomy study based o metallography
(Cambridge University Press, 2021-07-30)Plant anatomists are recurrently looking for safer and faster methods to improve the observations of plants tissues, searching for images with better resolution. Nevertheless, some plant materials are difficult to handle ... -
Both Volatiles and Cuticular Plant Compounds Determine Oviposition of the Willow Sawfly Nematus oligospilus on Leaves of Salix spp. (Salicaceae)
(Springer, 2015-11)Plant volatile organic compounds play a role in selection of host plants by herbivorous insects. Once the insect reaches the plant, contact cues determine host acceptance. Although the willow sawfly Nematus oligospilus ... -
Bottom-up effect of nitrogen fertilization on the density of the corn leafhopper and its impact on both disease incidence and natural parasitism
(Springer, 2022-04-15)The corn leafhopper Dalbulus maidis is a specialist herbivore that attacks maize in the tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas. It is the vector of three relevant plant pathogens that are responsible for severe ... -
Bovine colostral cells : the often forgotten component of colostrum
(American Veterinary Medical Association, 2017-05)Because bovine maternal and fetal blood supplies are kept separate in utero, calves are immunologically naïve immediately after birth, which puts them at high risk for disease. The acquisition of passive immunity, generally ... -
Bovine colostral cells—the often forgotten component of colostrum
(American Veterinary Medical Association, 2017-05)At birth, neonatal calves have all the essential immune components they need as adult cattle; however, it takes at least 2 to 4 weeks for those components to become fully functional.1,2 The immune system does not become ... -
Bovine coronavirus in Uruguay: genetic diversity, risk factors and transboundary introductions from neighboring countries
(Springer, 2019-11)Bovine coronavirus (BCoV) is a recognized cause of severe neonatal calf diarrhea, with a negative impact on animal welfare, leading to economic losses to the livestock industry. Cattle production is one of the most important ... -
Bovine dendritic cell activation, T cell proliferation and antibody responses to foot-and-mouth disease, is similar with inactivated virus and virus like particles
(Frontiers Media, 2020-09)Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious disease of cloven-hoofed animals that causes severe economic losses in the livestock industry. Currently available vaccines are based on the inactivated FMD virus (FMDV). ... -
Bovine interferon lambda Is a potent antiviral against SARS-CoV-2 infection in vitro
(Frontiers Media, 2020-11)Interferon lambda (IFN-λ) is an antiviral naturally produced in response to viral infections, with activity on cells of epithelial origin and located in the mucosal surfaces. This localized activity results in reduced ... -
Bovine leukemia virus becomes established in dairy herds before the first lactation
(2016)In this work, we studied seven groups of pregnant heifers from a consortium of dairy farms heavily infected with bovine leukemia virus (BLV). ELISA testing showed that the seroprevalence ranges of BLV in heifers between ... -
Bovine leukemia virus encoded blv-miR-b4-3p microRNA is associated with reduced expression of anti-oncogenic gene in vivo
(PLOS, 2023-02)Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is a retrovirus that causes malignant B-cell lymphoma in up to ten-percent of infected cattle. To date, the mechanisms of BLV linked to malignant transformation remain elusive. Although BLV-encoded ... -
Bovine leukemia virus infection in neonatal calves. Risk factors and control measures
(Frontiers Media, 2018-10)Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is the causative agent of enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL). Although efficient eradication programs have been successfully implemented in most European countries and Oceania, BLV infection rates ... -
Bovine leukemia virus small noncoding RNAs are functional elements that regulate replication and contribute to oncogenesis in vivo
(2016-04)Retroviruses are not expected to encode miRNAs because of the potential problem of self-cleavage of their genomic RNAs. This assumption has recently been challenged by experiments showing that bovine leukemia virus (BLV) ... -
Bovine macrophages responses to the infection with virulent and attenuated Leptospira interrogans serovar Pomona
(Elsevier, 2019-06)Leptospirosis is a zoonosis, caused by pathogenic spirochetes of the genus Leptospira. Although cattle are usually the maintenance hosts of serovar Hardjo, Pomona is the most frequent serovar circulating in Argentina. The ... -
Bovine respiratory syncytial virus seroprevalence and risk factors in feedlot cattle from Córdoba and Santa Fe, Argentina = Seroprevalencia del virus respiratorio sincicial bovino y factores de riesgo asociados en engordes a corral de Córdoba y Santa Fe, Argentina
(2018-09)Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) is one of the causative agents of respiratory disease in cattle all over the world, leading to important economic losses. The aim of this work was to determine the seroprevalence ... -
Bovine rotavirus strains circulating in beef and dairy herds in Argentina from 2004 to 2010
(Elsevier, 2012-08-17)Bovine Group A Rotavirus (RVA) is one of the main causes of neonatal calf diarrhea worldwide. The present study reports the genotyping of bovine RVA strains circulating in Argentinean cattle from 2004 to 2010. Additionally, ... -
Bovine tuberculosis in domestic pigs: Genotyping and distribution of isolates in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2015-12)Bovine tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium bovis and affects primarily cattle, among many other mammal species. In this study, 250 isolates of M. bovis collected from pigs slaughtered in Argentina were typed by ... -
El bovino Criollo Argentino: principales características de la raza
(Asociación Latinoamericana de Producción Animal, 2021-06)El bovino Criollo Argentino tiene sus orígenes en el ganado introducido a América por los españoles durante la colonización. Fenotípicamente se caracteriza por la gran diversidad de colores de capa y por ... -
Brazilian Flora 2020: Leveraging the power of a collaborative scientific network
(Wiley, 2022-02)The shortage of reliable primary taxonomic data limits the description of biological taxa and the understanding of biodiver sity patterns and processes, complicating biogeographical, ecological, and evolutionary studies. ... -
Breeding for Drought Tolerance by Monitoring Chlorophyll Content
(Longdom Publishing, 2021-05-17)Crop yields have increased substantially during the last 50 years, but the traits that drove these remarkable improvements, such as plant architecture, have a little remaining potential for improvement. New traits such ... -
