Spatio and temporal spread of Plum pox virus infecting European plum (Prunus domestica L. cv. D'agen) orchard in Mendoza, Argentina = Distribución espacial y temporal del Plum pox virus en un monte de ciruelo europeo (Prunus domestica L cv D'agen) de Mendoza, Argentina
(Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, 2020)Sharka, caused by Plum pox virus (PPV), is considered one of the most serious viral diseases of stone fruits worldwide due to the great yield losses in orchards. In Rama Caída, Mendoza, a 5-year study (2007-2011) was ... -
A strain of Bacillus subtilis subsp. subtilis shows a specific antagonistic activity against the soil-borne pathogen of onion Setophoma terrestris
(2015)Pink Root is among the major diseases of onion and its causal agent, Setophoma terrestris, is one of the most severe pathogens in soils of tropical and subtropical climates. The management of Pink Root is difficult and the ... -
Striking differences in the biological and molecular properties of onion and garlic isolates of onion yellow dwarf virus
(Springer, 2013-06)Complete nucleotide (nt) and deduced amino acid sequences of two onion yellow dwarf virus (OYDV) isolates showing mild and severe symptoms in onion but being unable to infect garlic were determined. The genomes consisted ... -
Switching between monocot and dicot crops in rotation schemes of Argentinean productive fields results in an increment of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi diversity
(2016-02)Despite the importance of mycorrhizal symbiosis, we understand little how different soil managements affect arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) communities. Crop rotation is recommended in sustainable agriculture because ... -
Temporal and spatial spread of potyvirus infection and its relationship to aphid populations visiting garlic crops
(Springer, 2014-11)The potyviruses Onion yellow dwarf virus (OYDV) and Leek yellow stripe virus (LYSV) are the main causes of serious losses in garlic crops worldwide. Both viruses are transmitted by aphid vectors in a non-persistent manner. ... -
The 18S–25S ribosomal RNA unit of yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis A. St.-Hil.)
(2016)We present the first report of the transcribed 18S–25S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) unit of the South American crop Ilex paraguariensis. This tree is consumed as an infusion named “mate”. Next-generation sequencing data were ... -
The DNAJ gene family in yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis): genome-wide identification, structural characterization, orthology based classification and expression analysis
