Transcriptional regulation of tocopherol biosynthesis in tomato
(Springer, 2013-02)Tocopherols, compounds with vitamin E (VTE) activity, are potent lipid-soluble antioxidants synthesized only by photosynthetic organisms. Their biosynthesis requires the condensation of phytyl-diphosphate and homogentisate, ... -
Transcriptomic Analysis Reveals a Differential Gene Expression Profile Between Two Sunflower Inbred Lines with Different Ability to Tolerate Water Stress
(Springer, 2020-01)Although sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is categorized as a medium drought-sensitive crop, in a changing climate scenario and/or with the onset of early droughts, the crop may be affected by water stress. This study ... -
Transferability of microsatellite markers located in candidate genes for wood properties between Eucalyptus species
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (España), 2014)AIM OF STUDY: To analyze the feasibility of extrapolating conclusions on wood quality genetic control between different Eucalyptus species, particularly from species with better genomic information, to those less characterized. ... -
Transgenic citrange troyer rootstocks overexpressing antimicrobial potato snakin-1 show reduced citrus canker disease symptoms
(Elsevier, 2020-12)Citrus canker is a major disease caused by Xanthomonas citri pv. citri. Snakin-1 is an antimicrobial peptide, which was previously shown to be effective against different bacterial and fungal diseases in potato, wheat and ... -
Transgenic expression of tobacco mosaic virus capsid and movement proteins modulate plant basal defense and biotic stress responses in Nicotiana tabacum
(2012)Plant viruses cause metabolic and physiological changes associated with symptomatic disease phenotypes. Symptoms involve direct and indirect effects, which result in disruption of host physiology. We used transgenic ... -
Transient expression of VP2 in Nicotiana benthamiana and its use as a plant-based vaccine against Infectious Bursal Disease Virus
(Elsevier, 2013-05-28)Infectious Bursal Disease Virus (IBDV) is the etiological agent of an immunosuppressive and highly contagious disease that affects young birds. This disease causes important economic losses in the poultry industry worldwide. ... -
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, ... -
Transovarial transmission of anaplasma marginale in Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus ticks results in a bottleneck for strain diversity
(MDPI, 2023-08)Anaplasma marginale is an obligate intraerythrocytic bacterium of bovines, responsible for large economic losses worldwide. It is mainly transmitted by Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus ticks and, despite mounting evidence ... -
Tuberculosis in swine co-infected with Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis and Mycobacterium bovis in a cluster from Argentina
(Cambridge University Press, 2015-04)In Argentina little is known about the epidemiology of tuberculosis (TB) infection in swine. We characterized the epidemiological dynamics of Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infection in a swine population of Argentina ... -
Tuberculosis in wild pigs from Argentina
(Springer, 2024)Mycobacterium bovis, a member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC) and non-tuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM), may infect wild and domestic mammals, including humans. Although cattle are the main hosts and spreaders ... -
Tuberculosis vaccine candidates based on mycobacterial cell envelope components
(Elsevier, 2019-03)Even after decades searching for a new and more effective vaccine against tuberculosis, the scientific community is still pursuing this goal due to the complexity of its causative agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). ... -
TuMV infection alters the regulation of miR168/AGO1 and miR403/AGO2 systems in Arabidopsis
(Springer, 2024)Plant argonaute (AGO) proteins—chiefly AGO1 and 2—restrict viral infections. AGO1/2 also participate in developmental processes and are tightly regulated by microRNAs. Researchers have conducted extensive studies on the ... -
Two distinctive phenotypes of AcMNPV display different immune abilities and intracellular destiny
(2016-12-29)The budded phenotype (BV) of the baculovirus AcMNPV has been demonstrated to have strong immunostimulatory properties that are relevant for the development of vaccines and antiviral therapies. Although the occluded ... -
Type VI secretion system in pathogenic escherichia coli: structure, role in virulence, and acquisition
(Frontiers Media, 2019-08)Bacterial pathogens utilize a myriad of mechanisms to invade mammalian hosts, damage tissue sites, and evade the immune system. One essential strategy of Gram-negative bacteria is the secretion of virulence factors through ... -
Understanding the relationship between Mycobacterium bovis spoligotypes from cattle in Latin American Countries
(Elsevier, 2013-02)Spoligotyping is the most frequently used method for genotyping isolates of Mycobacterium bovis worldwide. In the current work, we compared spoligotypes from 1684 M. bovis isolates from Argentina (816), Brazil (412), Chile ... -
