Reference gene selection for gene expression studies using RT-qPCR in virus-infected planthoppers
(BioMed Central, 2011-12)Background: Planthoppers not only severely affect crops by causing mechanical damage when feeding but are also vectors of several plant virus species. The analysis of gene expression in persistently infected planthoppers ... -
Regulatory mechanisms behind the phenotypic plasticity associated with Setaria italica water deficit tolerance
(Springer, 2022-05)Drought is one of the main environmental stresses that negatively impacts vegetative and reproductive yield. Water deficit responses are determined by the duration and intensity of the stress, which, together with plant ... -
Relationships between bioactive compound content and the antiplatelet and antioxidant activities of six allium vegetable species
(2017)Allium sp. vegetables are widely consumed for their characteristic flavour. Additionally, their consumption may provide protection against cardiovascular disease due to their antiplatelet and antioxidant activities. Although ... -
Relevancia clínica, diversidad y variabilidad genética de distintas especies del género Mycobacterium
(2017)Introducción: El término micobacterias no tuberculosas (MNT) incluye distintas especies ambientales capaces de enfermar humanosy/o animales incluso mediante una probable transmisión zoonótica Objetivos. Determinar: la ... -
Replication and transmission features of two experimental vaccine candidates against bovine tuberculosis subcutaneously administrated in a murine model
(Elsevier, 2022-05)Cattle vaccination is an attractive approach in compliance with control and eradication programs against Bovine Tuberculosis (bTB). Today, there is no anti bTB vaccine licensed. Two vaccine candidates, MbΔmce2 and MbΔmce2-phoP ... -
Research Note : Characterization and phylodynamic analysis of new infectious bursal disease virus variants circulating in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2024-06)Infectious Bursal Disease is a highly contagious disease that affects young chickens and leads to significant economic losses. Its causal agent is a double-stranded RNA virus that, due to its high error rate during the ... -
Respuesta inmune en terneros experimentalmente infectados con diferentes dosis de Mycobacterium bovis
(Gerencia de Comunicación e Imagen Institucional, DNA SICC, INTA, 2011-08)La tuberculosis bovina es una enfermedad zoonótica producida por Mycobacterium bovis que afecta a animales de producción causando pérdidas económicas y representa, además, un problema para la salud pública. El conocimiento ... -
Retrotransposon and CRISPR/Cas9‑mediated knockout of NOD26 impairs the legume‑rhizobia symbiosis
(Springer, 2022-07)The multifunctional channel NOD26, identified and extensively studied (both biochemically and biophysically) in soybean, is a major protein component of the symbiosome membrane. The water and ammonia transport activities ... -
Role of PhoPR in the response to stress of Mycobacterium bovis
(Elsevier, 2021-02)PhoP is part of the two-component PhoPR system that regulates the expression of virulence genes of Mycobacteria. The goal of this work was to elucidate the role of PhoP in the mechanism that Mycobacterium bovis, the causative ... -
Rv2577 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a virulence factor with dual phosphatase and phosphodiesterase functions
(Frontiers Media, 2020-10)Tuberculosis, a lung disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), is one of the ten leading causes of death worldwide affecting mainly developing countries. Mtb can persist and survive inside infected cells through ... -
Rv2617c and P36 are virulence factors of pathogenic mycobacteria involved in resistance to oxidative stress
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-12)In this study, we characterized the role of Rv2617c in the virulence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Rv2617c is a protein of unknown function unique to M. tuberculosis complex (MTC) and Mycobacterium leprae. In vitro, this ... -
Salicylic acid determines differential senescence produced by two turnip mosaic virus strains involving reactive oxygen species and early transcriptomic changes
(2013-12)Losses produced by virus diseases depend mostly on symptom severity. Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) is one of the most damaging and widespread potyvirus infecting members of the family Brassicaceae, including Arabidopsis ... -
SARS-CoV-2 RBD protein enhances the oncolytic activity of the vesicular stomatitis virus
(Frontiers Media, 2023-01)Despite recent advances in the research on oncolytic viruses (OVs), a better understanding of how to enhance their replication is key to improving their therapeutic index. Understanding viral replication is important to ... -
Secretion systems of pathogenic escherichia coli
(Springer International Publishing, 2016)Protein secretion plays a central role in modulating the interactions of bacteria with their environments. Bacterial ribosomes synthesize up to 8000 different proteins. Almost half of these become integrated in membranes ... -
Secretome profile of Cellulomonas sp. B6 growing on lignocellulosic substrates
(Wiley; Society for Applied Microbiology, 2018-12)Aims: Lignocellulosic biomass deconstruction is a bottleneck for obtaining biofuels and value‐added products. Our main goal was to characterize the secretome of a novel isolate, Cellulomonas sp. B6, when grown on residual ... -
Seed dormancy QTL identification across a Sorghum bicolor segregating population
(2016)Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) in Sorghum bicolor is one of the main constrains for its production in the central region of Argentina, as grain maturation often coincides with rainy or high environmental humidity conditions. ... -
Sequence analysis of genome segments S5 and S10 of Mal de Río Cuarto virus (Fijivirus, Reoviridae)
(Springer, 2005-06)Mal de Río Cuarto virus (MRCV) was recently described as a new species of the genus Fijivirus, family Reoviridae. The nucleotide sequence of two MRCV genome segments was determined. MRCV S5 and S10 were predicted to encode ... -
Silencing of the tomato Sugar Partitioning Affecting protein (SPA) modifies sink strength through a shift in leaf sugar metabolism
