(Wiley, 2021-10)Serology testing for COVID-19 is important in evaluating active immune response against SARS-CoV-2, studying the antibody kinetics, and monitoring reinfections with genetic variants and new virus strains, in particular, ... -
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. ... -
Bioprospecting of microbial strains for biofuel production: metabolic engineering, applications, and challenges
(BMC, 2021-01)The issues of global warming, coupled with fossil fuel depletion, have undoubtedly led to renewed interest in other sources of commercial fuels. The search for renewable fuels has motivated research into the biological ... -
Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) molecular diversity in cattle, sheep, and goats from Latin America and the Caribbean: a systematic review
(Springer, 2021-09)This study aimed to systematically collect and appraise the scientific evidence to answer the research question: What MAP genotypes have been isolated from cattle, sheep, and goats in Latin America and the Caribbean? An ... -
Diversity structure of the microbial communities in the guts of four neotropical termite species
(Peer J Inc., 2021-04)The termite gut microbiome is dominated by lignocellulose degrading microorganisms. This study describes the intestinal microbiota of four Argentinian higher termite species with different feeding habits: Microcerotermes ... -
The role of glucose in the pathology of EHEC O157: H7
(Cambridge University Press, 2020-04)The pathogen enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157: H7 is responsible for hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome in humans [1]. During the colonization process in the gastrointestinal tract, EHEC needs ... -
Campylobacter fetus releases S-layered and immunoreactive outer membrane vesicles = Campylobacter fetus secreta vesículas de membrana externa inmunorreactivas que conservan la capa S
(Elsevier, 2021-08)The study of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) became relevant because of their probable important role in the transfer of virulence factors to host cells. Campylobacter fetus is mainly a mammal pathogen whose virulence ... -
The cytosolic invertase NI6 affects vegetative growth, flowering, fruit set, and yield in tomato
(Oxford University Press, 2021-03)Sucrose metabolism is important for most plants, both as the main source of carbon and via signaling mechanisms that have been proposed for this molecule. A cleaving enzyme, invertase (INV) channels sucrose into sink ... -
The conserved brassinosteroid-related transcription factor BIM1a negatively regulates fruit growth in tomato
(Oxford University Press, 2021-02)Brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroid hormones that play key roles in plant development and defense. Our goal is to harness the extensive knowledge of the Arabidopsis BR signaling network to improve productivity in crop ... -
Baculovirus transduction in mammalian cells is affected by the production of type I and III interferons, which is mediated mainly by the cGAS-STING pathway
(American Society for Microbiology, 2020-11)The baculovirus Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus is an insect virus with a circular double-stranded DNA genome, which, among other multiple biotechnological applications, is used as an expression vector ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Recent advances in non-specific immune memory against bovine tuberculosis
(Elsevier, 2021-04)Bovine tuberculosis is an important worldwide disease mainly related to cattle, although it also affects other mammals, including humans. In recent years, there have been considerable advances in the knowledge of the immune ... -
The heart microbiome of insectivorous bats from Central and South Eastern Europe
