• Breeding for Drought Tolerance by Monitoring Chlorophyll Content 

      Monteoliva, Mariela Ines; Guzzo, María Carla; Posada, Gisella Anabel (Longdom Publishing, 2021-05-17)
      Crop yields have increased substantially during the last 50 years, but the traits that drove these remarkable improvements, such as plant architecture, have a little remaining potential for improvement. New traits such ...
    • Drought induces distinct growth response, protection, and recovery mechanisms in the maize leaf growth zone 

      Avramova, Viktoriya; AbdElgawad, Hamada; Zhang, Zhengfeng; Fotschki, Bartosz; Casadevall, Romina; Vergauwen, Lucia; Knapen, Dries; Taleisnik, Edith; Guisez, Yves; Asard, Han; Beemster, Gerrit T.S. (2015-10)
      Drought is the most important crop yield-limiting factor, and detailed knowledge of its impact on plant growth regulation is crucial. The maize (Zea mays) leaf growth zone offers unique possibilities for studying the ...
    • Leaf Photosynthesis and Senescence in Heated and Droughted Field-grown Soybean with Contrasting Seed Protein Concentration 

      Ergo, Verónica Vanesa; Veas, Rodolfo Ezequiel; Vega, Claudia Rosa Cecilia; Lascano, Hernan Ramiro; Carrera, Constanza Soledad (Elsevier, 2021-06-06)
      Soybean plants under heat and drought generate a multiplicity of responses in photosynthesis and senescence, impairing growth, yield, and seed quality. The goal of this study was to analyze and quantify independent and ...
    • Low water availability increases susceptibility to peanut smut (Thecaphora frezzii) in peanut crop 

      Paredes, Juan Andrés; Guzzo, María Carla; Monguillot, Joaquín Humberto; Asinari, Florencia; Posada, Gisella A.; Oddino, Claudio M.; Giordano, Damian F.; Morichetti, Sergio A.; Torres, Adriana M.; Rago, Alejandro Mario; Monteoliva, Mariela Ines (Wiley, 2023-10-23)
      Peanut smut (causal agent Thecaphora frezzii) and seasonal drought are the two main factors reducing peanut yields in Argentina. There are no previous studies about the effect of drought on peanut smut occurrence. We ...
    • Morpho‐physiological traits associated with drought responses in soybean (Glycine max L.) 

      Guzzo, María Carla; Costamagna, Carla; Salloum, María Soraya; Rotundo, Jose Luis; Monteoliva, Mariela Ines; Luna, Celina Mercedes (2020-08-26)
      Drought is currently a major constraint to soybean production worldwide and is becoming more widespread due to increased aridity and warmer temperatures in the context of global climate change. In this context, breeding ...
