(Springer, 2024-01)Drosophila suzukii Matsumura, known as spotted wing drosophila (SWD), is an Asiatic invasive fruit pest that has spread over the world in the last 15 years, due to its high reproductive rate, its tolerance to different ... -
A phenotypic characterization of two isolates of a multidrug-resistant outbreak strain of mycobacterium tuberculosis with opposite epidemiological fitness
(Hindawi, 2020-04)Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, primarily affecting the lungs. The M. tuberculosis strain of the Haarlem family named M was responsible for a large multidrug-resistant TB ... -
A pictorial key to differentiate the recently detected exotic Haemaphysalis longicornis Neumann, 1901 (Acari, Ixodidae) from native congeners in North America
(Pensoft Publishers, 2019-01)Until recently, only two haemaphysaline species, Haemaphysalis chordeilis (Packard, 1869) and Haemaphysalis leporispalustris (Packard, 1869), were known to occur in the United States, and neither was considered to be of ... -
A plasmid encoding the extracellular domain of CD40 ligand and MontanideTM GEL01 as adjuvants enhance the immunogenicity and the protection induced by a DNA vaccine against BoHV-1
(Elsevier, 2021-02)DNA vaccines are capable of inducing humoral and cellular immunity, and are important to control bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1), an agent of the bovine respiratory disease complex. In previous work, a DNA plasmid that encodes ... -
A point of view on genetic resources and plant breeding
(Sociedade Brasileira de Floricultura e Plantas Ornamentais, 2022-03)Biodiversity is the set of living organisms that make up our battered planet and their interactions with the environment. It is made up of the Kingdoms: Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, and Monera. It provides the energy ... -
A practical guide to estimating the light extinction coefficient with nonlinear models—a case study on maize
(Springer Nature, 2021-06-12)The fraction of intercepted photosynthetically active radiation (fPARi) is typically described with a non-linear function of leaf area index (LAI) and k, the light extinction coefficient. The parameter k is used to make ... -
A preliminary study of spatial distribution and plant density in a leucaena-grass planting in north Corrientes, Argentina
(CIAT, 2019)In northeast Argentina, most beef cattle graze naturalized range pastures continuously, with limited winter supplementation and restricted access to improved pastures. Calving rates are low, averaging 40‒50% annually and ... -
A preliminary study on the effects of a transgenic corn event on the non-target pest Dalbulus maidis (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae)
(Elsevier, 2010-06)The inclusion of the cry gene in corn may produce direct effects on non-target pests. Our research was focused on the relationship between Bt corn germplasm, expressing the cry1F protein to control the fall armyworm ... -
