Functional characterization and intracellular localization of a Lotus tenuis NHX antiporter
(Springer, 2021-05)Lotus tenuis is a perennial forage legume widely scattered in the flooding Pampa region of Argentina. Even when it is considered a salt-tolerant species, the molecular basis underlying this trait still remains unknown. ... -
Fungicide resistance in Cercospora species causing cercospora leaf blight and purple seed stain of soybean in Argentina
(Wiley, 2020-12)Cercospora species cause cercospora leaf blight (CLB) and purple seed stain (PSS) on soybean. Because there are few resistant soybean varieties available, CLB/PSS management relies heavily upon fungicide applications. ... -
Galacturonosyltransferase 4 silencing alters pectin composition and carbon partitioning in tomato
(2013-04)Pectin is a main component of the plant cell wall and is the most complex family of polysaccharides in nature. Its composition is essential for the normal growth and morphology pattern, as demonstrated by pectin-defective ... -
Generation of a multi‑herbicide‑tolerant alfalfa by using base editing
(Springer, 2022-02)We present the first report on base editing in alfalfa. Specifically, we showed edited alfalfa with tolerance to both sulfonylurea- and imidazolinone-type herbicides. Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is one of the most important ... -
Genetic dissection of vitamin E biosynthesis in tomato
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2011-07)Vegetables are critical for human health as they are a source of multiple vitamins including vitamin E (VTE). In plants, the synthesis of VTE compounds, tocopherol and tocotrienol, derives from precursors of the shikimate ... -
Genetic diversity of maize landraces from lowland and highland agro‐ecosystems of Southern South America: implications for the conservation of native resources
(Wiley, 2012-05)The North of Argentina is one of the southernmost areas of maize landrace cultivation. Two distinct centres of diversity have been distinguished within this region: Northwestern Argentina (NWA), and Northeastern Argentina ... -
Genetic diversity of Mycobacterium avium complex strains isolated in Argentina by MIRU-VNTR
(2017-05)Mycobacterium avium sp. avium (MAA), M. avium sp. hominissuis (MAH), and M. avium sp. paratuberculosis (MAP) are the main members of the M. avium complex (MAC) causing diseases in several hosts. The aim of this study was ... -
Genetic diversity of Mycobacterium avium sp. Paratuberculosis by mycobacterial interspersed repetitive unit–variable number tandem repeat and multi‑locus short‑sequence repeat one‑sentence summary : genetic diversity of Mycobacterium avium sp. Paratuberculosis isolates
(Wolters Kluwer Medknow, 2021-03)Background: Paratuberculosis is an enteric disease caused by Mycobacterium avium sp. paratuberculosis (MAP) that affects mainly ruminant producing losses to the livestock industry. Many molecular epidemiological methods ... -
Genome-wide analysis of the snakin/GASA gene family in solanum tuberosum cv. Kennebec
(2016-04)Snakin/GASA proteins have been involved in different aspects of plant growth and development although their exact role is still intriguing. All of them maintain 12 cysteines of the C-terminus in highly conserved positions ... -
Genome-wide and comparative phylogenetic analysis of senescence-associated NAC transcription factors in sunflower (Helianthus annuus)
(Springer, 2021-12)Background: Leaf senescence delay impacts positively in grain yield by maintaining the photosynthetic area during the reproductive stage and during grain filling. Therefore a comprehensive understanding of the gene families ... -
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 ... -
Genome-wide data (ChIP-seq) enabled identification of cell wall-related and aquaporin genes as targets of tomato ASR1, a drought stress-responsive transcription factor
(BMC, 2014-01)Background: Identifying the target genes of transcription factors is important for unraveling regulatory networks in all types of organisms. Our interest was precisely to uncover the spectrum of loci regulated by a widespread ... -
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 ... -
Genome-wide identification of microRNA targets in the neglected disease pathogens of the genus Echinococcus
(2017-06)MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of small non-coding RNAs, are key regulators of gene expression at posttranscriptional level and play essential roles in biological processes such as development. MiRNAs silence target mRNAs by ... -
Genome-wide identification of MITE-derived microRNAs and their targets in bread wheat
(BioMed Central, 2022-02)Background: Plant miRNAs are a class of small non-coding RNAs that can repress gene expression at the post-transcriptional level by targeting RNA degradation or promoting translational repression. There is increasing ... -
Genomic comparison of two strains of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis with contrasting pathogenic phenotype
(Elsevier, 2023-01)In a previous study, we evaluated the degree of virulence of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (Map) strains isolated from cattle in Argentina in a murine model. This assay allowed us to differentiate between ... -
Genomic re-assessment of the transposable element landscape of the potato genome
