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 ... -
Phylodynamic analysis of foot-and-mouth disease virus evolution in Mar Chiquita, Argentina
(Springer, 2024-05)Foot-and-mouth disease is a highly contagious disease affecting cloven-hoofed animals, resulting in considerable economic losses. Its causal agent is foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), a picornavirus. Due to its error-prone ... -
Phylogenetic analysis of ORF viruses from five contagious ecthyma outbreaks in Argentinian goats
(2018-06)Orf virus (ORFV) is the etiological agent of Contagious Ecthyma (CE) disease that mainly affects sheep, goats, wild ruminants, and humans with a worldwide distribution. To date, only two strains from Argentinian sheep have ... -
Phylogeny of digitaria sections Trichachne and Trichophorae (Poaceae, Panicoideae, Paniceae) : a morphological and molecular analysis. New circumscription and synopsis
(2017)The present study provides evidence for taxonomic delimitation of Digitaria sect. Trichachne based on morphological data (micro- and macromorphology) and molecular data. A phylogenetic analysis was performed using 121 ... -
Phylogeographic analysis of the 2000-2002 foot-and-mouth disease epidemic in Argentina
(2016)Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly transmissible disease of hooved livestock. Although FMD has been eradicated from many countries, economic and social consequences of FMD reintroductions are devastating. After ... -
Phytochrome-dependent temperature perception modulates isoprenoid metabolism
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2020-07)Changes in environmental temperature influence many aspects of plant metabolism; however, the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood. In addition to their role in light perception, phytochromes (PHYs) ... -
PIP aquaporin pH sensing is regulated by the length and charge of the C-terminal region
(Wiley, 2021-07)Plant PIP aquaporins play a central role in controlling plant water status. The current structural model for PIP pH-gating states that the main pH sensor is located in loopD and that all the mobile cytosolic elements ... -
Plant beneficial rhizobacteria community structure changes through developmental stages of peanut and maize
(Elsevier, 2021-09)Our objective in this study was to analyze the structure of the rhizobacterial community during different growth stages of peanut and maize plants. Microcosm assays were performed using pots containing unsterile soil from ... -
Plant-based vaccine candidate against Infectious bursal disease: an alternative to inactivated vaccines for breeder hens
(Elsevier, 2019-08)Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is an acute, highly contagious immunosuppressive disease that affects young birds causing important economic losses in the poultry industry worldwide. Strict hygiene management together with ... -
Plastome genomics in South American maize landraces: chloroplast lineages parallel the geographic structuring of nuclear gene pools
(Oxford University Press, 2021-03)Background and Aims: The number of plastome sequences has increased exponentially during the last decade. However, there is still little knowledge of the levels and distribution of intraspecific variation. The aims of this ... -
Polymorphisms of 20 regulatory proteins between Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis
(2016)Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis are responsible for tuberculosis in humans and animals, respectively. Both species are closely related and belong to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC). M. ... -
Polyparasitism and zoonotic parasites in dogs from a rural area of the Argentine Chaco
(Elsevier, 2019-04)Dogs play an important role as reservoirs and hosts of multiple pathogens shared with humans and wildlife, which contribute significantly to the global burden of disease. Here, we assessed the occurrence of a broad range ... -
Population genetics structure of glyphosate‐resistant Johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense L. Pers) does not support a single origin of the resistance
(Wiley, 2013-09)Single sequence repeats (SSR) developed for Sorghum bicolor were used to characterize the genetic distance of 46 different Sorghum halepense (Johnsongrass) accessions from Argentina some of which have evolved toward ... -
Population structure and genetic diversity characterization of a sunflower association mapping population using SSR and SNP markers
(BMC, 2015-02)Background: Argentina has a long tradition of sunflower breeding, and its germplasm is a valuable genetic resource worldwide. However, knowledge of the genetic constitution and variability levels of the Argentinean germplasm ... -
Potato snakin-1 gene enhances tolerance to Rhizoctonia solani and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in transgenic lettuce plants
(Elsevier, 2018-10)Snakin-1 is a cysteine-rich antimicrobial peptide (AMP) isolated from potato tubers, with broad-spectrum activity. It belongs to the Snakin/GASA family, whose members have been studied because of their diverse roles ... -
