      Brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroid hormones that play key roles in plant development and defense. Our goal is to harness the extensive knowledge of the Arabidopsis BR signaling network to improve productivity in crop ...
    • Transcript and metabolic adjustments triggered by drought in Ilex paraguariensis leaves 

      Acevedo, Raúl Maximiliano; Avico, Edgardo H.; Gonzalez, Sergio Alberto; Rodrigues Salvador, Acácio; Rivarola, Maximo Lisandro; Paniego, Norma Beatriz; Nunes Nesi, Adriano; Ruiz, Oscar Adolfo; Sansberro, Pedro Alfonso (Springer, 2019-08)
      Ilex paraguariensis (yerba mate) is cultivated in the subtropical region of South America, where the occurrence of drought episodes limit yield. To explore the mechanisms that allow I. paraguariensis to overcome dehydration, ...
    • Transcriptome analysis of Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1 males, females, and embryos: insights into development, courtship, and reproduction 

      Scannapieco, Alejandra Carla; Conte, Claudia Alejandra; Rivarola, Maximo Lisandro; Wulff, Juan Pedro; Muntaabski, Irina; Ribone, Andrés Ignacio; Milla, Fabian Horacio; Cladera, Jorge Luis; Lanzavecchia, Silvia Beatriz (BioMed Central, 2020-12)
      Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1 is considered a quarantine pest in several American countries. Since chemical control applied in an integrated pest management program is the only strategy utilized against this pest, the ...
