• Exploring gene networks in two sunflower lines with contrasting leaf senescence phenotype using a system biology approach 

      Moschen, Sebastian; Marino, Johanna; Nicosia, Salvador; Higgins, Janet; Alseekh, Saleh; Astigueta, Francisco; Bengoa Luoni, Sofia Ailin; Rivarola, Maximo Lisandro; Fernie, Alisdair R.; Blanchet, Nicolas; Langlade, Nicolas B.; Paniego, Norma Beatriz; Fernandez, Paula Del Carmen; Heinz, Ruth Amelia (BMC, 2019-10)
      Background: Leaf senescence is a complex process, controlled by multiple genetic and environmental variables. In sunflower, leaf senescence is triggered abruptly following anthesis thereby limiting the capacity of plants ...
    • Genome-enabled and phenotypic selection of alfalfa for widely-diversified cropping environments 

      Annicchiarico, Paolo; Nazzicari, Nelson; Bouizgaren, Abdelaziz; Hayek, Taoufik; Laouar, Meriem; Cornacchione, Monica; Basigalup, Daniel Horacio; Brummer, Edward Charles; Pecetti, Luciano (2018-11-11)
      The decrease of rainfall amount due to climate change, and the reduction of irrigation water caused by growing water demand for non-agricultural uses, emphasize the importance of breeding novel alfalfa varieties that are ...
    • Performance of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) populations to salinity stress under field condition in a semiarid environment 

      Cornacchione, Monica; Prieto Angueira, Salvador (Centro Regional Córdoba, INTA, 2021-09)
      The identification and evaluation of an alfalfa population with improved salinity tolerance on the field would provide some tools for dealing with salt stress. Screening populations in the field is difficult due to the ...
    • Quinoa Phenotyping Methodologies: An International Consensus 

      Stanschewski, Clara S.; Rey, Elodie; Fiene, Gabriele; Craine, Evan B.; Wellman, Gordon; Melino, Vanessa J.; Patiranage, Dilan S.R.; Johansen, Kasper; Schmöckel, Sandra M.; Erazzu, Luis Ernesto; Tester, Mark (MDPI, 2021-08)
      Quinoa is a crop originating in the Andes but grown more widely and with the genetic potential for significant further expansion. Due to the phenotypic plasticity of quinoa, varieties need to be assessed across years and ...
