The influence of protein restriction during mid- to late gestation on beef offspring growth, carcass characteristic and meat quality
(Elsevier, 2019-07)The objective of this study was to determine whether crude protein intake during the last three months of gestation affects growth performance, carcass characteristics and meat quality of steer progeny. At 134 ± 14 d of ... -
The Intake of Yogurt With Omega-3 Fatty Acids Affects Bone Quality in Growing Wistar Rats. Influence of Previous Nutritional Status
(Elsevier, 2023-07)Omega-3 fatty acids are important on cardiovascular health, inflammation, immune system, bone development, cognition among others. The objective was to analyze the effect of the administration of yogurt alone and added ... -
The Ixodes ricinus complex (Acari: Ixodidae) in the Southern Cone of America: Ixodes pararicinus, Ixodes aragaoi, and Ixodes sp. cf. I. affinis
(Springer, 2019-11)The goal of this study was to clarify the taxonomic status of the Ixodes ricinus complex in the Southern Cone of America, by using morphological characters and molecular markers (mitochondrial 16SrDNA and cox1 genes). The ... -
The jumping spider Tapsatella albocastanea, a new genus and species from Argentina (Araneae: Salticidae: Freyina)
(Peckham Society, 2020-03)Tapsatella albocastanea, new genus and species (Araneae, Salticidae) is described from specimens recently collected in a quebrachal forest in Chaco Province, Argentina. The dorsal stripes, shape of the tegulum, presence ... -
The key to egress? Babesia bovis perforin-like protein 1 (PLP1) with hemolytic capacity is required for blood stage replication and is involved in the exit of the parasite from the host cell
(Elsevier, 2021-07)Bovine babesiosis is a tick-borne disease caused by apicomplexan parasites of the Babesia genus that represents a major constraint to livestock production worldwide. Currently available vaccines are based on live parasites ... -
The Known Distribution and Ecological Preferences of the Tick Subgenus Boophilus (Acari: Ixodidae) in Africa and Latin America
(Springer, 2006-02)A compilation of the known distribution of Boophilus ticks in Africa and Latin America is presented, together with details on climate preferences. B. annulatus is recorded mainly in the western part of a strip from the ... -
The Lambda Variant in Argentina: Analyzing the Evolution and Spread of SARS-CoV-2 Lineage C.37
(MDPI, 2023-06-16)The second wave of COVID-19 occurred in South America in early 2021 and was mainly driven by Gamma and Lambda variants. In this study, we aimed to describe the emergence and local genomic diversity of the SARS-CoV-2 Lambda ... -
The management of extensive livestock systems and its relationship with greenhouse gas emissions
(Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, 2020-12)During food fermentation, the digestive system of bovines generates methane gas as agricultural waste. Considering this, this study intended to evaluate different relationships between production type and management ... -
The MARAS dataset, vegetation and soil characteristics of dryland rangelands across Patagonia
(Nature Research, 2020)We present the MARAS (Environmental Monitoring of Arid and Semiarid Regions) dataset, which stores vegetation and soil data of 426 rangeland monitoring plots installed throughout Patagonia, a 624.500 km2 area of southern ... -
The molecular characterization of the virus and virus-line agents present in Ta Tao 5 germplasm of Prunus persica
(Clemson University, 2007-12)Peach production in the southeastern United States is limited by late spring freezes. Ta Tao 5 germplasm, used either as an interstem or by chip bud inoculation, has been shown to delay bloom and avoid the effects of these ... -
The MVA vector expressing the F protein of bovine respiratory syncytial virus is immunogenic in systemic and mucosal immunization routes = El vector viral MVA que expresa la proteína F del virus respiratorio sincicial bovino es inmunogénico al administrarse por vía sistémica y por mucosas
(Elsevier, 2023-12)Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) affects both beef and dairy cattle, reaching morbidity and mortality rates of 60---80% and 20%, respectively. The aim of this study was to obtain a recombinant MVA expressing the ... -
The Neospora caninum-Spain 7 isolate induces placental damage, fetal death and abortion in cattle when inoculated in early gestation
(Elsevier, 2012-10)The Nc-Spain 7 isolate of Neospora caninum, which was newly obtained from an asymptomatic congenitally infected calf, demonstrated a similar virulence as Nc-1 strain in mouse models. The aim of this study was to characterize ... -
The number of tree species on Earth
(National Academy of Sciences, 2022-02-08)One of the most fundamental questions in ecology is how many species inhabit the Earth. However, due to massive logistical and financial challenges and taxonomic difficulties connected to the species concept definition, ... -
