Citrus psorosis virus coat protein-derived hairpin construct confers stable transgenic resistance in citrus against psorosis A and B syndromes
(2017-04)Citrus psorosis virus (CPsV) is the causal agent of psorosis, a serious and widespread citrus disease. Two syndromes of psorosis, PsA and PsB, have been described. PsB is the most aggressive and rampant form. Previously, ... -
Control de deriva génica desde alfalfas OGMs a alfalfas convencional
(EEA Manfredi, INTA, 2021-04-01)Se denomina Organismo Genéticamente Modificado o Modificado Genéticamente (OGM u OMG) a aquel cuyo material genético ha sido alterado usando técnicas de ingeniería genética. La ingeniería genética permite modificar organismos ... -
Cultivos transgénicos, el reto de crear una papa más resistente
(Ediciones INTA, 2019-04)Desde hace más de 20 años, un equipo de investigadores del INTA trabaja en el desarrollo de un producto que pueda resistir el ataque de las dos enfermedades virósicas más importantes del cultivo de papa. Con herramientas ... -
Developments in plant-based vaccines against diseases of concern in developing countries
(BENTHAM Open, 2010)Vaccination has been extensively used to prevent, eradicate and control infectious diseases. However, the development and implementation of new vaccines remains prohibitively expensive for middle and low income countries where ... -
Dispersión y mortalidad de larvas de Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) en híbridos de maíz convencional y transgénico Bt. Potenciales implicancias para el manejo de la resistencia
(Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias y Forestales, Universidad Nacional de La Plata, 2018-12)Spodoptera frugiperda es plaga clave del maíz en todo el continente americano. Actualmente la principal estrategia de control consiste en la utilización de cultivares de maíz genéticamente modificados Bt. La evolución de ... -
Efficacy of a BVDV subunit vaccine produced in alfalfa transgenic plants
(Elsevier, 2013-02-15)Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is considered an important cause of economic loss within bovine herds worldwide. In Argentina, only the use of inactivated vaccines is allowed, however, the efficacy of inactivated BVDV ... -
High-quality forage production under salinity by using a salt-tolerant AtNXH1-expressing transgenic alfalfa combined with a natural stress-resistant nitrogen-fixing bacterium
(Elsevier, 2018-06)Alfalfa, usually known as the “Queen of Forages”, is the main source of vegetable protein to meat and milk production systems worldwide. This legume is extremely rich in proteins due to its highly efficient symbiotic ... -
Isolation and characterization of the tissue and development-specific potato snakin-1 promoter inducible by temperature and wounding
(Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Valparaiso, 2010-09)Snakin-1 (StSN1) is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial peptide isolated from Solanum tuberosum. Homologous proteins have been identified in a wide range of species but there is no apparent consensus in the roles they play. A ... -
Minimizing the time and cost of production of transgenic alfalfa libraries using the highly efficient completely sequenced vector pPZP200BAR
(2016)Alfalfa is the most important forage legume worldwide. However, similar to other minor forage crops, it is usually harvested along with weeds, which decrease its nutrient quality and thus reduce its high value in the ... -
The overexpression of antifungal genes enhances resistance to rhizoctonia solani in transgenic potato plants without affecting arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis
(Elsevier, 2019-10)The biological control of fungal diseases through the use of genetically modified (GM) plants could decrease the input of chemical pesticides. To overcome possible losses in potato (Solanum tuberosum) yield because of ... -
Overexpression of snakin-1 gene enhances resistance to Rhizoctonia solani and Erwinia carotovora in transgenic potato plants
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2008-05)Snakin‐1 (SN1), a cysteine‐rich peptide with broad‐spectrum antimicrobial activity in vitro, was evaluated for its ability to confer resistance to pathogens in transgenic potatoes. Genetic variants of this gene were cloned ... -
pBAR–H3.2, a native-optimized binary vector to bypass transgene silencing in alfalfa
