The chromosome region including the earliness per se locus Eps-Am1 affects the duration of early developmental phases and spikelet number in diploid wheat
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2008-10)Earliness per se genes are those that regulate flowering time independently of vernalization and photoperiod, and are important for the fine tuning of flowering time and for the wide adaptation of wheat to different ... -
The dynamics of three shrub species in a fire-prone temperate savanna: the interplay between the seed bank, seed rain and fire regime
(Springer, 2013-01)A model was developed to assess how the seed rain and fire regime affect seed bank dynamics and seedling establishment of three native shrub species (Acanthostyles buniifolius, Baccharis pingraea and Baccharis dracunculifolia) ... -
The phylogenetic relationships of four monospecific caesalpinioids (Leguminosae) endemic to southern South America
(Wiley, 2012-08)Balsamocarpon, Lophocarpinia, Stenodrepanum and Zuccagnia are monospecific endemic genera from arid or saline areas of southern South America (Argentina, Paraguay, Chile). Several molecular studies have explored relationships ... -
The potential impact of economic policies on future land-use conversions in Argentina
(2018)Agricultural expansion and intensification drive the conversion of natural areas worldwide. Scenarios are powerful tools to explore possible future changes in agricultural land use, how these may affect the environment, ... -
The problem with implementing fish farms in agricultural regions: A trial in a pampean pond highlights potential risks to both human and fish health
(Elsevier, 2020-09)The safety of creating fish farms in agricultural settings was evaluated by growing Piaractus mesopotamicus in a pond, while crops where cultivated in a nearby field under a pesticide application regime typical of the Pampa ... -
The role of soybean production as an underlying driver of deforestation in the South American Chaco
(2017-07)South America’s tropical dry forests and savannas are under increasing pressure from agricultural expansion. Cattle ranching and soybean production both drive these forest losses, but their relative importance remains ... -
Tissue distribution and sublethal effects of imidacloprid in the South American grayish baywing (Agelaioides badius)
(Elsevier, 2021-12)The neonicotinoids are globally used insecticides, which have been shown to cause negative impacts on birds. The current study aimed to evaluate the distribution of the neonicotinoid imidacloprid (IMI) in the tissues of a ... -
Toward sustainable environmental quality: Identifying priority research questions for Latin America
(2018-02)The Global Horizon Scanning Project (GHSP) is an innovative initiative that aims to identify important global environmental quality research needs. Here we report 20 key research questions from Latin America (LA). Members ... -
Toxicities of glyphosate- and cypermethrin-based pesticides are antagonic in the tenspotted livebearer fish (Cnesterodon decemmaculatus)
(2016)Although pesticide contamination of surface waters normally occurs in the form of mixtures, the toxicity and interactions displayed by such mixtures have been little characterized until now. The present study examined ... -
Toxicity to Rhinella arenarum tadpoles (Anura, Bufonidae) of herbicide mixtures commonly used to treat fallow containing resistant weeds: glyphosateedicamba and glyphosateeflurochloridone
(Elsevier, 2020-04-01)Glyphosate (GLY)-dicamba (DIC) and GLY-flurochloridone (FLC) are herbicide mixtures which are widely used for treating fallow containing glyphosate resistant weeds. The aim of this study was to evaluate the acute toxic ... -
Trade‐offs between biodiversity and agriculture are moving targets in dynamic landscapes
(Wiley, 2020-07)Understanding how biodiversity responds to intensifying agriculture is critical to mitigating the trade‐offs between them. These trade‐offs are particularly strong in tropical and subtropical deforestation frontiers, yet ... -
Transcriptional signatures of wheat inforescence development
(Springer Nature, 2022-10-14)In order to maintain global food security, it will be necessary to increase yields of the cereal crops that provide most of the calories and protein for the world’s population, which includes common wheat (Triticum aestivum ... -
Transcriptome survey of Patagonian southern beech Nothofagus nervosa (= N. Alpina): assembly, annotation and molecular marker discovery
(Genomics 13: 291 (2012), 2012-07-02)Nothofagus nervosa is one of the most emblematic native tree species of Patagonian temperate forests. Here, the shotgun RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) of the transcriptome of N. nervosa, including de novo assembly, functional ... -
Trends in reference evapotranspiration and associated climate variables over the last 30 years (1984–2014) in the Pampa region of Argentina
(2018-07-21)Agricultural production is sensitive to weather and thus directly affected by climate change. In Argentina, the geographic region known as the “Pampa” is at the heart of agricultural production. In this context, the objective ... -
Ultra sensitive microfluidic immunosensor for determination of clenbuterol in bovine hair samples using electrodeposited gold nanoparticles and magnetic micro particles as bio-affinity platform
(Elsevier, 2013-03-15)In this article, we report the first integrated microfluidic immunosensor coupled to a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) applied to determination of clenbuterol (CLB) in bovine hair samples. CLB is a member of the ... -
Unveiling the increasingly altered patterns of wetland ecosystem functional diversity in the lower Delta of the Paraná River
(Wiley, 2022-07-08)Since climate, environmental and anthropic controls affect ecosystem functioning simul taneously, wetlands are permanently changing at different spatio–temporal scales. Thus, regionalizations based not only on structural, ... -
Unweaving the population structure and genetic diversity of Canadian shrub willow
