First report of grapevine hammerhead viroid-like RNA infecting grapevine in Argentina
(Springer, 2025-02-13)Grapevine hammerhead viroid-like RNA (GHVd) is single- stranded circular RNA that shares structural features with viroids and was firstly detected in grapevines (Vitis vinifera L.) of the Pinot noir variety from Italy (Wu ... -
Detection of an Alphacoronavirus in a Brazilian Bat (Molossus sp.)
(Springer, 2025-04)Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainty about aspects of its origin, in recent years there has been an increased interest in investigating coronaviruses in wild animals. Bats are hosts of the greatest diversity ... -
M72 Fusion proteins in nanocapsules enhance BCG efficacy against bovine tuberculosis in a mouse model
(MDPI, 2025-06)Mycobacterium bovis is the causative pathogen of bovine tuberculosis (bTB), a disease that affects cattle and other mammals, including humans. Currently, there is no efficient vaccine against bTB, underscoring the need for ... -
Focus on translational research from arabidopsis to crop plants and beyond
(Oxford University Press, 2025-05)Over the past 4 decades, substantial research efforts in plant science worldwide have focused on the model system Arabidopsis thaliana (Provart et al. 2015). Many of us have dedicated years to the study of Arabidopsis, ... -
Engineering a commercial soybean inoculant to efficiently degrade glyphosate
(Elsevier, 2025-06)Nitrogen-fixing rhizobia possess the well-characterized phn operon, which encodes the C–P lyase enzymatic complex responsible for degrading phosphonates such as glyphosate. However, glyphosate exerts a bacteriostatic effect ... -
Genomic and physiological plasticity in natural variants of commercial soybean inoculants supports the non-GMO status of base-edited inoculants
(Springer, 2025-04)The regulatory classification of genome-edited microorganisms remains a topic of debate, particularly in the agricultural sector. In this study, we analyze the genomic and physiological differences of commercial variants ... -
Total free lipids from MDR strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis “M” reduce T cell activation and CTL activity in healthy individuals
(Elsevier, 2025-07)Increasing evidence highlights the role of cell wall components in the effectiveness of different Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) strains in modulating host immune response. We previously demonstrated that the outbreak ... -
Characterization of two GH10 enzymes with ability to hydrolyze pretreated Sorghum bicolor bagasse
(Springer, 2025-04)In this study, we characterized two novel enzymes of the glycoside hydrolase family 10 (GH10), Xyl10 C and Xyl10E, identified in the termite gut microbiome. The activities of both enzymes were assayed using beechwood xylan, ... -
Combining linkage and association mapping approaches to study the genetic architecture of verticillium wilt resistance in sunflower
(MDPI, 2025-04)Sunflower Verticillium Wilt and Leaf Mottle (SVW), caused by Verticillium dahliae Kleb., is a globally prevalent disease affecting sunflower production. In this study, we identified a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) ... -
Protection against rabies induced by the non-replicative viral vectors MVA and Ad5 expressing rabies glycoprotein
(MDPI, 2025-04)Rabies is a zoonotic viral disease that is preventable through vaccination. Effective control strategies should follow the “One Health” concept, as targeting zoonotic pathogens at their animal source is the most effective ... -
Field trial with vaccine candidates against bovine tuberculosis among likely infected cattle in a natural transmission setting
(MDPI, 2024-10)Background/Objectives: Vaccines may improve the control and eradication of bovine tuberculosis. However, the evaluation of experimental candidates requires the assessment of the protection, excretion, transmission and ... -
Arabidopsis research in 2030: Translating the computable plant
(Wiley, 2025-03)Plants are essential for human survival. Over the past three decades, work with the reference plant Arabidopsis thaliana has significantly advanced plant biology research. One key event was the sequencing of its genome ... -
Shedding light on risk: Seroprevalence of Q fever among farm animals and workers in Ecuador
(Elsevier, 2024-12)Q fever, caused by the bacterium Coxiella burnetii, is a zoonotic disease that has been largely overlooked despite presenting significant risks to both animal and public health. Although well studied in some countries, in ... -
Ecophysiological and Molecular Analysis of Contrasting Genotypes for Leaf Senescence in Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) Under Differential Doses of N in Soil
(MDPI, 2024-12)Leaf senescence in plants is the last stage of leaf development and is characterized by a decline in photosynthetic activity, an active degeneration of cellular structures, and the recycling of accumulated nutrients to ... -
FhaA plays a key role in mycobacterial polar elongation and asymmetric growth
(American Society for Microbiology, 2025-03)Mycobacteria, including pathogens like Mycobacterium tuberculosis, exhibit unique growth patterns and cell envelope structures that challenge our understanding of bacterial physiology. This study sheds light on FhaA, a ... -
Comprehensive Analysis of the Influence of Technical and Biological Variations on De Novo Assembly of RNA-Seq Datasets
