Main and epistatic QTL analyses for Sclerotinia Head Rot resistance in sunflower
(PLOS, 2017-12)Sclerotinia Head Rot (SHR), a disease caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, is one of the most limiting factors in sunflower production. In this study, we identified genomic loci associated with resistance to SHR to support ... -
Mal de Río Cuarto virus (MRCV) genomic segment S3 codes for the major core capsid protein
(Springer, 2009-06)Mal de Río Cuarto virus (MRCV) is a newly described species of the genus Fijivirus, family Reoviridae. Compared with other plant-infecting genus of the family, the function and localization of MRCV and other Fijivirus ... -
Mal de Río Cuarto virus infection causes hormone imbalance and sugar accumulation in wheat leaves
(BMC, 2019-03)Background; Mal de Río Cuarto virus (MRCV) infects several monocotyledonous species including maize and wheat. Infected plants show shortened internodes, partial sterility, increased tillering and reduced root length. To ... -
Mal de Río Cuarto Virus infection triggers the production of distinctive viral-derived siRNA profiles in wheat and Its planthopper vector
(2017)Plant reoviruses are able to multiply in gramineae plants and delphacid vectors encountering different defense strategies with unique features. This study aims to comparatively assess alterations of small RNA (sRNA) ... -
Mapping causal mutations by exome sequencing in a wheat TILLING population: a tall mutant case study
(Springer, 2018-04)Forward genetic screens of induced mutant plant populations are powerful tools to identify genes underlying phenotypes of interest. Using traditional techniques, mapping causative mutations from forward screens is a lengthy, ... -
Matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry identification of mycobacterium bovis in bovinae
(The Japanese Society of Veterinary Science, 2019-10)In this study, Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-Time-of-Flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry was used to identify Mycobacterium bovis from cattle and buffalo tissue isolates from the North and South regions of ... -
Metabolic analyses of interspecific tomato recombinant inbred lines for fruit quality improvement
(Springer, 2015-10)Elucidating the determinants of tomato nutritional value and fruit quality to introduce improved varieties on the international market represents a major challenge for crop biotechnology. Different strategies can be ... -
Metabolic and miRNA profiling of TMV infected plants reveals biphasic temporal changes
(2011-12-12)Plant viral infections induce changes including gene expression and metabolic components. Identification of metabolites and microRNAs (miRNAs) differing in abundance along infection may provide a broad view of the pathways ... -
Metabolic profile of mycobacterium smegmatis reveals Mce4 proteins are relevant for cell wall lipid homeostasis
(2016)Introduction The Mce proteins are encoded in a variable number of operons (from one to eight) in all Mycobacterium species. A role in the transport of host and mycobacterial lipids has been demonstrated for some Mce proteins ... -
MicroRNA analysis of Taenia crassiceps cysticerci under praziquantel treatment and genome-wide identification of Taenia solium miRNAs
(2017-09)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that have emerged as important regulators of gene expression and perform critical functions in development and disease. In spite of the increased interest in miRNAs from helminth ... -
Modeling tobacco mosaic virus proliferation in protoplasts
(2016)The tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is one of the most studied viruses. It is frequently used as a model in the research of virus-host interactions. The interest in understanding the mechanism of its proliferation stems basically ... -
Molecular characterization of Mycobacterium bovis infection in cattle and buffalo in Amazon Region, Brazil
(Wiley, 2020-02)The aim of this study was to characterize Mycobacterium bovis from cattle and buffalo tissue samples, from two Brazilian states, and to analyse their genetic diversity by spoligotyping. Tissue samples from tuberculosis ... -
Molecular identification of a cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase-producing microorganism and phylogenetic assessment of enzymatic activities
(Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2019-10)Cyclodextrin glycosyltransferases (CGTases) are important enzymes in the biotechnology field because they catalyze starch conversion into cyclodextrins and linear oligosaccharides, which are used in food, pharmaceutical ... -
Molecular identification of Anaplasma marginale in two autochthonous South American wild species revealed an identical new genotype and its phylogenetic relationship with those of bovines
(2016)Background: Anaplasma marginale is a well-known cattle pathogen of tropical and subtropical world regions. Even though, this obligate intracellular bacterium has been reported in other host species different than bovine, ... -
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 ... -
Morphological and molecular evidence for a new species of Pseudanisakis Layman & Borovkova, 1926 (Nematoda: Ascaridida), parasitizing Rajiformes in southern Southwest Atlantic waters
(2017-07)Pseudanisakis argentinensis n. sp. is proposed to accommodate parasitic nematodes found in six skate species (Rajidae and Arhynchobatidae) examined from southern Southwest Atlantic waters. The new species differs from its ... -
Multiomics analyses reveal the roles of the ASR1 transcription factor in tomato fruits
(Oxford University Press, 2021-09)The transcription factor ASR1 (ABA, STRESS, RIPENING 1) plays multiple roles in plant responses to abiotic stresses as well as being involved in the regulation of central metabolism in several plant species. However, despite ... -
Multiple challenges in the development of commercial crops using CRISPR technology
