What Factors Control the Crude Protein Content Variation of a Basaltic “Campos” Native Grassland of South America?
(MDPI, 2022-08)Native grasslands are the main source of food for livestock in the Campos region of South America. These forage resources are heterogeneous in species composition, grazing management, and soil fertility within a context ... -
What factors explain the price of top quality wines?
(Emerald, 2018-03)Dada la creciente oferta de vinos y la gran cantidad de nuevos consumidores con poder adquisitivo pero que carecen del conocimiento de las sutilezas de los vinos de alta calidad, las opiniones de los expertos se utilizan ... -
What is hot in tree rings? The wood density of surviving Douglas-firs to the 2003 drought and heat wave
(Elsevier, 2008-08)In a global warming scenario, drought and heat waves like the one that occurred in 2003 in Europe are expected to become more intense and frequent. This extreme climate event strongly affected the hydraulic balance in many ... -
What is meat in Argentina?
(2017-10)Due to its strong cultural significance, the term “meat” in Argentina has been historically associated with beef, despite its wider definition in the Argentine Food Code. Only by the end of the last century did other meats ... -
What to Expect as Corn Yields Face a Third Straight La Niña
(University of Illinois, 2022-07-11)Meteorologists are forecasting a third consecutive year of La Niña. The occurrence of two successive La Niña winters in the Northern Hemisphere is common, however, having three in a row is relatively rare. A triple La Niña ... -
Wheat curl mite, Aceria tosichella, and transmitted viruses: an expanding pest complex affecting cereal crops
(Springer, 2013-02)The wheat curl mite (WCM), Aceria tosichella, and the plant viruses it transmits represent an invasive mite-virus complex that has affected cereal crops worldwide. The main damage caused by WCM comes from its ability to ... -
Wheat grains damaged by Fusarium graminearum: alterations in yield, toxicity and protein composition
(Springer, 2019-08-26)The aim of this study was to investigate alterations on wheat grains, in relation to yield and quality parameters, such as infection degree, protein composition and toxicity caused by isolates of Fusarium graminearum with ... -
Wheat lines, suffering structural rearrangements between wheat-1BS and rye-1RS chromosomes, display differential patterns of magnesium accumulation
(Sociedad Argentina de Fisiología Vegetal, 2023-10-24)Two near isogenic lines, designated as 1RS and 1RW, resulting from the recombination of the rye (Secale cereale) chromosome 1RS with chromosome 1BS of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum), differ in a relatively small region ... -
Wheat Outlook After Five Months of War in Ukraine
(University of Illinois, 2022-08-01)Even with the projection of increased wheat production in some countries, the world harvest is expected to be a little smaller as a result of effects of the war in Ukraine. Global production for the marketing year 2022/2023 ... -
Wheat plant height locus RHT25 encodes a PLATZ transcription factor that interacts with DELLA (RHT1)
(National Academy of Sciences, 2023-05-01)Plant height is an important agronomic trait with a significant impact on grain yield, as demonstrated by the positive effect of the REDUCED HEIGHT (RHT) dwarfing alleles (Rht1b) on lodging and harvest index in the “Green ... -
Wheat Ppd-1 allelic combination modulates photoperiod sensitivity
(Sociedad Argentina de Fisiología Vegetal, 2018-11)ABSTRACT: a model linking Ppd-1 allelic composition to photoperiod response curve would allow replacing expensive and time consuming phenologic trials. In Ppd-1 near isogenic lines grown under different photoperiods we ... -
Wheat pre-anthesis development as affected by photoperiod sensitivity genes (Ppd-1) under contrasting photoperiods
(2018-01)Fine tuning wheat phenology is of paramount importance for adaptation. A better understanding of how genetic constitution modulates the developmental responses during pre-anthesis phases would help to maintain or even ... -
Wheat spike fertility : inheritance and relationship with spike yield components in early generations
(2015)In wheat, grain number is considered as the product of spike dry weight (SDW) and the number of grains per unit of SDW, that is an indicator of spike fertility (SF). The aim of this study was to determine the heritability ... -
Wheat yield progress and stability during the last five decades in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2021-07)Improvement of grain yield (GY) at farm level, which is closely related to GY potential, seems to be the main alternative to increase wheat (Triticum aestivum L) production. The aim of current research was to assess the ... -
When neglected species gain global interest: Lessons learned from quinoa's boom and bust for teff and minor millet
(Elsevier, 2022-03)Until recently, many so-called neglected and underutilized species (NUS) were not present in global markets despite playing a pivotal role in the local livelihoods in their places of origin. Today, some NUS receive substantial ... -
When we cannot have it all: Ecosystem services trade-offs in the context of spatial planning
(2017)Spatial planning has to deal with trade-offs between various stakeholders’ wishes and needs as part of planning and management of landscapes, natural resources and/or biodiversity. To make ecosystem services (ES) trade-off ... -
Where are the males? The influence of bottom-up and top-down factors and sociability on the spatial distribution of a territorial ungulate
