What we know about poleroviruses : Advances in understanding the functions of polerovirus proteins
(Wiley, 2021-06)Poleroviruses are economically important plant viruses that infect cereal, vegetable, and fruit crops, and cause serious yield and quality losses worldwide. In this review we summarize the current knowledge of the function ... -
Negative modulation of SA signaling components by the capsid protein of tobacco mosaic virus is required for viral long-distance movement
(Wiley, 2021-05)An important aspect of plant–virus interaction is the way viruses dynamically move over long distances and how plant immunity modulates viral systemic movement. Salicylic acid (SA), a well-characterized hormone responsible ... -
Sunpheno : a deep neural network for phenological classification of sunflower images
(MDPI, 2024-07)Leaf senescence is a complex trait which becomes crucial for grain filling because photoassimilates are translocated to the seeds. Therefore, a correct sync between leaf senescence and phenological stages is necessary to ... -
In vitro and ex vivo activity of the fluoroquinolone DC-159a against mycobacteria
(Japan Antibiotics Research Association, 2024-05)Antimicrobial resistance is a global health problem. In 2021, it was estimated almost half a million of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) cases. Besides, non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are highly resistant to ... -
Exploring the cooperation between nitrogen-fixing and non-fixing alfalfa rhizobia
(Springer, 2024-07-05)Alfalfa plays a crucial role in agriculture due to its nitrogen-fixing partnership with rhizobia, resulting in nutritious forage. While the potential parasitic action of inefficient rhizobia has been extensively studied, ... -
Mobile forms of carbon in trees : metabolism and transport
(Oxford University Press, 2022-03)Plants constitute 80% of the biomass on earth, and almost two-thirds of this biomass is found in wood. Wood formation is a carbon (C)-demanding process and relies on C transport from photosynthetic tissues. Thus, understanding ... -
Antiviral efficacy of short-hairpin RNAs and artificial microRNAs targeting foot and-mouth disease virus
(Peer J Inc., 2021-06)RNA interference (RNAi) is a well-conserved mechanism in eukaryotic cells that directs post-transcriptional gene silencing through small RNA molecules. RNAi has been proposed as an alternative approach for rapid and specific ... -
Limited usefulness of the IS6110 touchdown-PCR in blood for tuberculin skin test false-negative cattle with serological response to Mycobacterium bovis
(Frontiers Media, 2024-05)Ante-mortem diagnosis of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is based mainly on the tuberculin skin test (TST) and the ɣ-IFN release assay (IGRA). Some infected animals escape screening tests, thus, limit herd sanitation. Previous ... -
Comparison of DRB3.2 alleles among false-negative and positive tuberculin skin test cattle with bovine tuberculosis
(European Society of Mycobacteriology, 2024-06)Introduction: M. bovis is worldwide distributed mainly affecting livestock. Caudal Fold-Tuberculin Skin Test (CF-TST) is the primary screening tool that detects the infection in herds. Some tuberculous animals remain ... -
Comparative study of two deleted Mycobacterium bovis strains in experimental animal models
(European Society of Mycobacteriology, 2024-06)Introduction: Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) constitutes a problem for livestock and Public Health due to its negative impact on farms and its zoonotic nature. In Argentina, the application of the National Control and Eradication ... -
Non-tuberculous mycobacteria isolated at the end of the world
(European Society of Mycobacteriology, 2024-06)Introduction: Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are a group of mycobacteria widely distributed in the environment (e.g. soil and water). NTM can also cause infections in different mammals, mostly in immunocompromised ... -
Enteroparasitosis en una población infantil del Municipio de Hurlingham, Buenos Aires = Enteroparasitosis in a child population of the Hurlingham District, Buenos Aires
(Fundación Revista Medicina, 2022-12)Introducción: Los parásitos intestinales tienen mayor impacto en las poblaciones infantiles ya que pueden, a largo plazo, conducir a un retraso en el crecimiento con alteración del desarrollo cognitivo. Sumado a esto, los ... -
Transmissibility of Mycobacterium pinnipedii in a murine model
(Frontiers Media, 2024-03)The causative agent of tuberculosis in pinnipeds is Mycobacterium pinnipedii, a member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC). The natural hosts are pinnipeds; however, other non-marine mammals, including humans, ... -
Evasion of maternal antibody protection by an IBDV Argentine variant
(Elsevier, 2024-03)Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is a viral disease that affects the ability of chickens to produce humoral immune responses. One way to prevent the disease is the passage of maternally derived antibodies (MDA) from dams ... -
Live attenuated Mycobacterium bovis strains combined with the encapsulated H65 antigen as a vaccine strategy against bovine tuberculosis in a mouse model
(Elsevier, 2024-04)Mycobacterium bovis is an etiological agent of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) that also infects other mammals, including humans. The lack of an effective vaccine for the control of bTB highlights the need for developing new ... -
Unveiling the defensive role of Snakin‑3, a member of the subfamily III of Snakin/GASA peptides in potatoes
(Springer, 2024-02)Snakin/GASA proteins share 12 cysteines in conserved positions in the C-terminal region. Most of them were involved in different aspects of plant growth and development, while a small number of these peptides were reported ... -
Xylanase production by cellulomonas phragmiteti using lignocellulosic waste materials
(MDPI, 2024-02)Lignocellulosic biomass holds promise as a renewable feedstock for various applications, but its efficient conversion requires cost-effective degradation strategies. The main objective of this study was to investigate the ... -
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 ... -
