New validated eucalyptus SSR markers located in candidate genes involved in growth and plant development
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (España), 2020)Aim of study: To validate and characterize new microsatellites or Simple Sequence Repeats (SSR) markers, located within genomic transcribed sequences related to growth and plant developmental traits, in Eucalyptus ... -
Validation of reference genes for quantitative PCR in Johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense L.) under glyphosate stress
(MDPI, 2021-08)Weeds are one of the main causes of the decrease in crop yields, with Johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense L.) being one of the most significant. Weeds can be controlled by herbicides, but some have developed resistance. ... -
Expanding the benefits of Tnt1 for the identification of dominant mutations in polyploid crops: A single allelic mutation in the MsNAC39 gene produces multifoliated alfalfa
(Frontiers Media, 2022-04)Most major crops are polyploid species and the production of genetically engineered cultivars normally requires the introgression of transgenic or gene-edited traits into elite germplasm. Thus, a main goal of plant research ... -
Editorial : Plant transformation
(Frontiers Media, 2022-04)Plant transformation provides a key tool for much basic research, such as the study of gene functions and interactions, protein–protein interactions, developmental processes, as well as applications for crop improvement ... -
Citrus genetic transformation: an overview of the current strategies and insights on the new emerging technologies
(Frontiers Media, 2021-11)Citrus are among the most prevailing fruit crops produced worldwide. The implementation of effective and reliable breeding programs is essential for coping with the increasing demands of satisfactory yield and quality of ... -
State of the art of genetic engineering in potato: from the first report to its future potential
(Frontiers Media, 2022-01)Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a crop of world importance that produces tubers of high nutritional quality. It is considered one of the promising crops to overcome the challenges of poverty and hunger worldwide. However, ... -
Replication and transmission features of two experimental vaccine candidates against bovine tuberculosis subcutaneously administrated in a murine model
(Elsevier, 2022-05)Cattle vaccination is an attractive approach in compliance with control and eradication programs against Bovine Tuberculosis (bTB). Today, there is no anti bTB vaccine licensed. Two vaccine candidates, MbΔmce2 and MbΔmce2-phoP ... -
Genome-wide identification of MITE-derived microRNAs and their targets in bread wheat
(BioMed Central, 2022-02)Background: Plant miRNAs are a class of small non-coding RNAs that can repress gene expression at the post-transcriptional level by targeting RNA degradation or promoting translational repression. There is increasing ... -
Thrombospondin related anonymous protein superfamily in vector-borne apicomplexans: the parasite’s toolkit for cell invasion
(Frontiers Media, 2022-04)Apicomplexan parasites transmitted by vectors, including Babesia spp. and Plasmodium spp., cause severe disease in both humans and animals. These parasites have a complex life cycle during which they migrate, invade, and ... -
The key to egress? Babesia bovis perforin-like protein 1 (PLP1) with hemolytic capacity is required for blood stage replication and is involved in the exit of the parasite from the host cell
(Elsevier, 2021-07)Bovine babesiosis is a tick-borne disease caused by apicomplexan parasites of the Babesia genus that represents a major constraint to livestock production worldwide. Currently available vaccines are based on live parasites ... -
Structural and molecular dynamics investigations of ligand stabilization via secondary binding site interactions in Paenibacillus xylanivorans GH11 xylanase
(Elsevier, 2021-03)Glycoside hydrolases (GHs) are essential for plant biomass deconstruction. GH11 family consist of endo-β-1,4-xylanases which hydrolyze xylan, the second most abundant cell wall biopolymer after cellulose, into small ... -
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 ... -
Pathogenesis of domestic pigs submitted to mycobacterial sensitizations previous to experimental infection with Mycobacterium bovis
(INIA (España), 2022-03)Aim of study: To demonstrate the virulence of a Mycobacterium bovis local pig isolate in order to contribute to a better understanding of the pathological and immunological consequences of M. bovis infection in previous ... -
Generation of a multi‑herbicide‑tolerant alfalfa by using base editing
(Springer, 2022-02)We present the first report on base editing in alfalfa. Specifically, we showed edited alfalfa with tolerance to both sulfonylurea- and imidazolinone-type herbicides. Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is one of the most important ... -
Exploring the role of the NO‑detoxifying enzyme HmpA in the evolution of domesticated Alfalfa Rhizobia
(Springer, 2022-02)We have previously shown the extensive loss of genes during the domestication of alfalfa rhizobia and the high nitrous oxide emission associated with the extreme genomic instability of commercial inoculants. In the present ... -
