The Use of Raw Poultry Waste as Soil Amendment Under Field Conditions Caused a Loss of Bacterial Genetic Diversity Together with an Increment of Eutrophic Risk and Phytotoxic Effects
(Springer, 2022-10-05)Poultry waste has been used as fertilizer to avoid soil degradation caused by the long-term application of chemical fertilizer. However, few studies have evaluated field conditions where livestock wastes have been used for ... -
Brucella canis Group 2 isolated in Argentina = Brucella canis Grupo 2 aislado en Argentina
(Elsevier, 2021-06)The aim of this study was to estimate the diversity and prevalence of both groups of Brucella canis 1 and 2 with and without deletion respectively in different areas of Argentina. A total of 104 bacterial cultures were ... -
The Gln15Arg mutation in the transcriptional factor PALM1 produces multifoliate alfalfa
(Springer, 2022-12)The CRISPR/Cas9 system has proven to be highly valuable for genome editing in several important crops, including the allogamous tetraploid cultivated alfalfa (Medicago sativa). However, the fact that most of the beneficial ... -
Genome-wide association studies in sunflower : towards sclerotinia sclerotiorum and diaporthe/phomopsis resistance breeding
(MDPI, 2022-12)Diseases caused by necrotrophic fungi, such as the cosmopolitan Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and the Diaporthe/Phomopsis complex, are among the most destructive diseases of sunflower worldwide. The lack of complete resistance ... -
Assessment of eucalypts wood lignin content by analytical pyrolysis, comparison with Klason and total lignin contents
(Taylor and Francis, 2021-10)Analytical pyrolysis can be used to determine the lignin content (Py-lignin) in eucalypt woods with a precision (0.37%) similar to the wet reference methods. Good correlations were found between the Py-lignin results and ... -
CRISPR/Cas9‑mediated knockout of SPL13 radically increases lettuce yield
(Springer, 2022-12)Cultivated lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is a diploid (2n = 2x = 18), autogamous species. This popular leafy vegetable is considered one of the first crops (Guo et al. 2022). Currently, lettuce is the third most consumed ... -
ICTV virus taxonomy profile : Sedoreoviridae 2022
(Microbiology Society, 2022-10)Sedoreoviridae is a large family of icosahedral viruses that are usually regarded as non- enveloped with segmented (10–12 linear segments) dsRNA genomes of 18–26 kbp. Sedoreovirids have a broad host range, infecting mammals, ... -
Morphological and genetic diversity of maize landraces along an altitudinal gradient in the Southern Andes
(BioRxiv, 2022-07)Maize (Zea mays ssp. mays) is a major cereal crop worldwide and is traditionally or commercially cultivated almost all over the Americas. The northwestern region of Argentina (NWA) constitutes one of the main diversity ... -
In search of hepatitis E virus infection in wild boar and cattle from Argentina
(Sociedad Argentina para el Estudio de los Mamíferos, 2022)Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a pathogen with zoonotic potential that affects domestic pigs, wild boar Sus scrofa, and humans, among other species. The HEV has been reported in wild boar from Argentina and Uruguay, but ... -
Current recommendations and novel strategies for sustainable management of soybean sudden death syndrome
(Wiley, 2021-10)The increase in food production requires reduction of the damage caused by plant pathogens, minimizing the environmental impact of management practices. Soil-borne pathogens are among the most relevant pathogens that affect ... -
Characterization of a novel GH10 alkali‑thermostable xylanase from a termite microbiome
(Springer Open, 2022-08)The aim of the present study was to assess the biochemical and molecular structural characteristics of a novel alkali-thermostable GH10 xylanase (Xyl10B) identified in a termite gut microbiome by a shotgun metagenomic ... -
Development of nanobodies against Mal de Río Cuarto virus major viroplasm protein P9‑1 for diagnostic sandwich ELISA and immunodetection
(Springer Nature, 2021-10)Mal de Río Cuarto virus (MRCV) is a member of the genus Fijivirus of the family Reoviridae that causes a devastating disease in maize and is persistently and propagatively transmitted by planthopper vectors. Virus replication ... -
Acinetobacter baumannii and Its relationship to carbapenem resistance : a meta-analysis
(MDPI, 2022-05)Infections by antibiotic-resistant bacteria are a significant and complex global health issue. In this context, Acinetobacter baumannii is particularly important because of its ability to withstand treatments by β-lactams, ... -
Retrotransposon and CRISPR/Cas9‑mediated knockout of NOD26 impairs the legume‑rhizobia symbiosis
(Springer, 2022-07)The multifunctional channel NOD26, identified and extensively studied (both biochemically and biophysically) in soybean, is a major protein component of the symbiosome membrane. The water and ammonia transport activities ... -
Rapid and cloning‑free screening of edited alfalfa via next‑generation sequencing
(Springer, 2022-07)The identification of full knockout plants is frequently the rate-limiting step of the research and commercial projects searching the complete loss of the function of target genes via the CRISPR/Cas9 system. This problem ... -
Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in a free‑ranging urban dog from Argentina
(Springer, 2022-02)Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium are the most important Mycobacteria isolated from diseased dogs, but Mycobacterium tuberculosis can be isolated as well, especially when close contact with humans exists. Free ... -
