Genetic studies of various Prosopis species (Leguminosae, Section Algarobia) co- occurring in oases of the Atacama Desert (northern Chile)
(Wiley, 2021-03-01)In the Atacama Desert from northern Chile (19– 24°S), Prosopis (Leguminosae) individuals are restricted to oases that are unevenly distributed and isolated from each other by large stretches of barren landscape constituting ... -
Genetic variability of Araucaria angustifolia in the Argentinean Parana Forest and implications for management and conservation
(2018-08)The main forces shaping genetic variability of woody species in fragmented forest are the geographical distribution and demographic history of populations. We conducted molecular analyses to evaluate how these factors have ... -
Genomic evaluation for breeding and genetic management in Cordia africana, a multipurpose tropical tree species
(BMC, 2024-01-02)Planting tested forest reproductive material is crucial to ensure the increased resilience of intensively managed productive stands for timber and wood product markets under climate change scenarios. Single-step Genomic ... -
Genomic-based multiple-trait evaluation in Eucalyptus grandis using dominant DArT markers
(2018-06)We investigated the impact of combining the pedigree- and genomic-based relationship matrices in a multiple-trait individual-tree mixed model (a.k.a., multiple-trait combined approach) on the estimates of heritability and ... -
Glossy privet (Ligustrum lucidum) invasion decreases Chaco Serrano forest bird diversity but favors its seed dispersers
(Springer, 2020-11)Glossy privet (Ligustrum lucidum) is an aggressive invasive plant that replaces native forests and forms dense stands without understory in central Argentina. However, the consequences of these changes in terms of vegetation ... -
Grain mineral composition of Argentinean-adapted wheat cultivars: a case study
(CSIRO, 2021-02-23)Abstract. Improvement of the nutritional quality of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) has been quite challenging, due, in part, to the limited variation found in modern cultivars and the strong effect exerted by the environment, ... -
Green spaces in a tertiary care children`s hospital benefits, taxonomic survey, and perspective
(2018-04)El contacto del ser humano con espacios verdes naturales tiene un efecto físico, mental y social beneficioso. Con el primer objetivo de conocer las especies vegetales de los jardines del Hospital de Pediatría Garrahan ... -
Hierbas y especies culinarias : beneficios para la salud
(Foro de la Alimentación, la Nutrición y la Salud, 2021)Las especias y hierbas culinarias aportan sabor, aroma y color a alimentos y bebidas. Estos atributos se deben a sus constituyentes químicos, que además les confieren actividad biológica. La función principal de las especies ... -
Host selection, oviposition behaviour and leaf traits in a specialist willow sawfly on species of Salix (Salicaceae)
(Wiley, 2013-12)Plant genotype influences plant–herbivore interactions by affecting insect attraction, acceptance and development. Here we linked oviposition behaviour of the specialist willow sawfly Nematus oligospilus Förster (Hymenoptera: ... -
How does post-flowering sources/sink manipulation affect grain weight and commercial quality in Argentinean bread wheat genotypes with different baking aptitude?
(Elsevier, 2023-06-29)Context: Wheat is a crop of vital importance for food security. In contrast to the accumulated knowledge for yield determination, the effect of variations in the source/sink (S/S) ratio on grain quality, and its interaction ... -
Identification and joint modeling of competition effects and environmental heterogeneity in three Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii) trials
(2016-12)(Co)variance matrices for the assumed model, and thus the specification of the dispersion parameters, should take into account both the negative competition and the positive spatial correlations. In this context, we applied ... -
Identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms [SNPs] at candidate genes involved in abiotic stress in two Prosopis species and hybrids
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (España), 2014)Aim of the study: Identify and compare SNPs on candidate genes related to abiotic stress in Prosopis chilensis, Prosopis flexuosa and interspecific hybrids Area of the study: Chaco árido, Argentina. Material and Methods: ... -
Identification of smut resistance in wild arachis species and its introgression into peanut elite lines
(Crop Science Society of America, 2019-05-16)Peanut smut caused by Thecaphora frezii Carranza & Lindquist has been an issue for farmers and the peanut industry (Arachis hypogaea L.) in Argentina since the mid-1990s. This disease causes pod malformation due to hypertrophy ... -
Imidacloprid seed coating poses a risk of acute toxicity to small farmland birds: A weight-of-evidence analysis using data from the grayish baywing Agelaioides badius
(Elsevier, 2020-10)The aim of this study was to estimate the risk posed by imidacloprid (IMI) seed coating to passerine birds of the Pampa Region of Argentina using data specifically generated with the grayish baywing (Agelaioides badius). ... -
