Frog somatic indices: Importance of considering allometric scaling, relation with body condition and seasonal variation in the frog Leptodactylus latrans
(Elsevier, 2020)Snout-vent length (SVL) and liver, gonad, fat bodies and carcass weight data from 661 individual Leptodactylus latrans frogs collected over ten years in the Pampa Region of Argentina were analyzed to evaluate the best ... -
From farm scale to village scale trade-offs : cereal crop residues use in an agro-pastoral system of the Sudanian zone of Burkina Faso
(2015-03)Traditionally, cereal crop harvest residues are communally grazed by the ruminant herds of villagers and transhumant pastoralists in the agro-pastoral systems which predominate in the savannah zone of West Africa. We ... -
From Kyoto to Paris: Measuring renewable energy policy regimes in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Mexico and the United States
(2019-04)There are numerous strategies to lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions or to mitigate global climate change. One of them is to promote polices for developing renewable energy sources. There has been a growth in such policies ... -
From lignocellulosic metagenomes to lignocellulolytic genes : trends, challenges and future prospects
(2016)Lignocellulose is the most abundant biomass on Earth with immense potential to act as a primary resource for the production of a range of compounds currently obtained from fossil fuel sources. However, lignocellulosic ... -
From science to practice: The AGSUS protocol for monitoring and certification of sustainable soil management and carbon sequestration
(Elsevier, 2024-09)Sustainable soil management is indispensable for achieving the UN Sustainable Development goals and soil carbon sequestration for climate change mitigation has gained importance in recent years, yet there are few examples ... -
From traditional knowledge to novel adaptations of transhumant pastoralists the in face of new challenges in North Patagonia
(Elsevier, 2018-10)Transhumant pastoralism is a mobile livelihood strategy in many mountainous, arid and semi-arid regions worldwide. The knowledge of pastoral communities and their lifestyle are strongly rooted in the historical evolution ... -
Frost damage on grain number in wheat at different spike developmental stages and its modeling
(Elsevier, 2019-02)Frosts may damage wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) spikes and severely reduce their yield. The objective of this study was (i) to quantify the level of susceptibility to frost at different spike developmental stages, and (ii) ... -
Fruit Characteristics and a Simple Estimate of Oil Content in Twenty-Six Olive Genotypes in Argentina
(Tarbiat Modares University, 2021)There are more than two thousand varieties of olives grown worldwide, most of them native to the Mediterranean Region. However, in Argentina, only a small number of olive varieties are cultivated. In Mendoza Province, there ... -
Fruit flesh volatile and carotenoid profile analysis within the Cucumis melo L. species reveals unexploited variability for future genetic breeding
(2018-08)Aroma profile and carotenoids content of melon flesh are two important aspects influencing the quality of this fruit that have been characterized using only selected genotypes. However, the extant variability of the whole ... -
Fruit infestation patterns by Anastrepha fraterculus and Ceratitis capitata reveal that cross-recognition does not lead to complete avoidance of interspecific competition in nature
(Wiley, 2015-08)1. The avoidance of parasitized or infested hosts, which is a common phenomenon in parasitic wasps and phytophagous insects, may act both intra- and interspecifically. Most studies on chemically-mediated avoidance of ... -
Fruit metabolic and transcriptional programs differentiate among Andean tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) accessions
(Springer, 2019-09-16)Traditional landraces or “criollo” tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L.) from Andean areas of Argentina, selected for their fruit quality, were analysed in this study. We explored the metabolome and transcriptome of the ripe ... -
Fruit yield of strawberry plants inoculated with Azospirillum brasilense RLC1 and REC3 under field conditions
(Facultad de Agronomía y Zootecnia, Universidad Nacional de Tucumán, 2012-12)The beneficial effect of inoculating with Azospirillum brasilense on crop productivity has been widely described in different crops, but its extensive use in strawberry typical agricultural field environments is scarcely ... -
Fruit, mesocarp, and endocarp responses to crop load and to different estimates of source: sink ratio in olive (cv. Arauco) at final harvest
(2018-04-14)The annual fluctuations in olive crop load due to alternate bearing and other factors often lead to large differences in fruit size and oil content between years at harvest. A better understanding of how fruit parameters ... -
Fruit-localized photoreceptors increase phenolic compounds in berry skins of field-grown Vitis vinifera L. cv. Malbec
(2015-02)Sunlight exposure has multiple effect on fruits, as it affects the light climate perceived by fruit photoreceptors and fruit tissue temperature. In grapes (Vitis vinifera L.), light exposure can have a strong effect on ... -
Fruiting efficiency : an alternative trait to further rise wheat yield
(2015-07)Further improvements in wheat yields are critical, for which increases in grain number would be required. In the recent past, higher grain number was achieved through increased growth of the juvenile spikes before anthesis, ... -
Frutales de pepita : Cydia pomonella Linnaeus (Gusano de la pera y la manzana)
(2015)La capacidad de la producción frutícola argentina de abastecer tanto al mercado interno como a los mercados limítrofes y de ultramar obliga a poseer un acabado conocimiento de las exigencias oficiales de los ...
