A look at polyploidy and plant breeding
(Heighten Science Publications, 2022-11)Polyploidization is a process that generates genetic variability and therefore one of the engines of biological evolution. Since polyploidization produces important changes in the phenotype, mainly an increase in the size ... -
A novel source of cytoplasmic male sterility in Calibrachoa pubescens
(2017)Calibrachoa pubescens is a species native from the south of Brazil, Uruguay and northeast Argentina. An accession identified as 7.3.1.1 was collected at San Martín Department in Corrientes Province, Argentina and is included ... -
A point of view on genetic resources and plant breeding
(Sociedade Brasileira de Floricultura e Plantas Ornamentais, 2022-03)Biodiversity is the set of living organisms that make up our battered planet and their interactions with the environment. It is made up of the Kingdoms: Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, and Monera. It provides the energy ... -
Allelic differences in a vacuolar invertase affect Arabidopsis growth at early plant development
(2016)Improving carbon fixation in order to enhance crop yield is a major goal in plant sciences. By quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping, it has been demonstrated that a vacuolar invertase (vac-Inv) plays a key role in ... -
Aplicaciones y perspectivas de la edición génica de plantas mediante CRISPR-Cas9 = Applications and perspectives of plant gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9
(Universidad de Morón, 2022)Los avances en materia de genética y biotecnología, introducen una dimensión novedosa en la utilización de herramientas de edición génica en plantas. En el presente trabajo se relevaron 164 publicaciones científicas que ... -
Biotechnological improvement of ornamental plants
(2017)The discovery of commercial transgenic varieties of orange petunias sold in Europe and the United States although they had never reached the approved status, and the consequent recommendation to destroy them, was the trigger ... -
Crop metabolomics : from diagnostics to assisted breeding
(Springer, 2018-11)Background Until recently, plant metabolomics have provided a deep understanding on the metabolic regulation in individual plants as experimental units. The application of these techniques to agricultural systems subjected ... -
Dissecting maize diversity in lowland South America : genetic structure and geographic distribution models
(2016)Background: Maize landraces from South America have traditionally been assigned to two main categories: Andean and Tropical Lowland germplasm. However, the genetic structure and affiliations of the lowland gene pools have ... -
Identification of a new cotton disease caused by an atypical cotton leafroll dwarf virus in Argentina
(2017)An outbreak of a new disease occurred in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) fields in northwest Argentina starting in the 2009–10 growing season and is still spreading steadily. The characteristic symptoms of the disease included ... -
Integrating transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis to understand natural leaf senescence in sunflower
(2016)Leaf senescence is a complex process, which has dramatic consequences on crop yield. In sunflower, gap between potential and actual yields reveals the economic impact of senescence. Indeed, sunflower plants are incapable ... -
Interaction of Mal de Río Cuarto virus (Fijivirus genus) proteins and identification of putative factors determining viroplasm formation and decay
(2017)Mal de Río Cuarto virus (MRCV) is a member of the Fijivirus genus, within the Reoviridae family, that repli-cates and assembles in cytoplasmic inclusion bodies called viroplasms. In this study, we investigatedinteractions ... -
On-field phenotypic evaluation of sunflower populations for broad-spectrum resistance to Verticillium leaf mottle and wilt
(Springer Nature, 2021-06)Sunflower Verticillium Wilt and Leaf Mottle (SVW), caused by Verticillium dahliae (Kleb.; Vd), is a soil-borne disease affecting sunflower worldwide. A single dominant locus, known as V1, was formerly effective in controlling ... -
PCR identification of petunia male sterile cytoplasm = Identificação por PCR de citoplasma macho estéril em Petunia
(Sociedade Brasileira de Floricultura e Plantas Ornamentais, 2019-12)Petunia is a very important ornamental plant with a broad range of flower colour and size, and most of the cultivars grown are propagated through seeds. Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is a maternally inherited character ... -
Phenotyping sunflower genetic resources for Sclerotinia head rot response: assessing variability for disease resistance breeding
(The American Phytopathological Society, 2017-11)Sclerotinia head rot (SHR) is one of the most serious constraints to sunflower (Helianthus annuus L. var. macrocarpus) production worldwide. Here, we evaluated the response to SHR in a sunflower inbred panel from a large ... -
Pre-breeding studies in Panicum coloratum var. coloratum: Characterization using agro-morphological traits and molecular markers = Estudios de pre-mejoramiento genético en Panicum coloratum var. coloratum : caracterización usando marcadores moleculares y caracteres agro-morfológicos
(CIAT, 2018)Panicum coloratum var. coloratum is a native African perennial C4 grass, introduced to Argentina. It is tolerant of salinity and cold and has good forage production. The scarce genotypic and phenotypic information about ... -
Taking advantage og organelle genomes in plant breeding: an integrated approach = Aprovechando los genomas de las organelas en el mejoramiento genético de plantas: un enfoque integrado
(Sociedad Argentina de Genética, 2019-07)Plant cells carry their genetic information in three compartments: the nucleus, the plastids and the mitochondria. In last years, next-generation sequencing has allowed the development of genomic databases, which are ...
