Syrah and Grenache (Vitis vinifera) revealed different strategies to cope with high temperature
(Australian Society of Viticulture and Oenology, 2022-03-02)
Background and Aims: Global warming will threaten vineyard sustainability in warm and arid regions. Therefore, increasing water use efficiency (WUE) is essential for long-term viticulture sustainability. Nevertheless, ...
Amblyomma yucumense Krawczak, Martins & Labruna, 2015 (Acari: Ixodidae) in Argentina
(Systematic & Applied Acarology Society, 2018-05)
Amblyomma yucumense was recently described from specimens collected in the Turvo State Park, southern Brazil. In search of this tick species, free-living ticks were collected at the Moconá Provincial Park and the Yabotí ...
A dynamic model for sodium intoxication unravels salt tolerance in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) rootstocks
(Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, 2020-12)
A correct selection of salt-tolerant plants should consider the relative effects of the various existing tolerance mechanisms. When toxic ions, like Na+, reach the leaves, they affect the photosynthetic apparatus, reducing ...
History and status of local cotton Gossypium spp. in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Ecuador
(Springer, 2023-06)
Cotton (Gossypium spp.) contains more than 45 diploid (2n = 26) and at least five allotetraploid (2n = 4x = 52) species. The five allotetraploid (genome A and D) lineages that belong to the primary gene pool are indigenous ...
Characterization of Purple Carrot Germplasm for Antioxidant Capacity and Root Concentration of Anthocyanins, Phenolics, and Carotenoids
(MDPI, 2023-04)
The present study characterized a genetically and phenotypically diverse collection of 27 purple and two non-purple (one orange and one yellow) carrot accessions for concentration of root anthocyanins, phenolics, and ...
Firefly genomes illuminate parallel origins of bioluminescence in beetles
(eLife Sciences Publications, 2018-10-16)
Fireflies and their luminous courtships have inspired centuries of scientific study. Today firefly luciferase is widely used in biotechnology, but the evolutionary origin of bioluminescence
within beetles remains unclear. ...
Trends of aboveground net primary productivity of Patagonian meadows, the omitted ecosystem in desertification studies
(MDPI, 2023-05-08)
The United Nations defines desertification as the loss of productivity in arid and semiarid environments. The extended steppes of Patagonia harbor small meadows whose compounded area is comparatively small, but their ...
Influencia de las fechas de siembra sobre la productividad del cultivo de eneldo en invernadero en San Pedro, Buenos Aires, Argentina
(Asociación Argentina de Horticultura, 2023)
El eneldo se usa como condimento en alimentos y tiene propiedades medicinales. El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar la fecha de siembra óptima para el cultivo de eneldo en invernadero para su corte en fresco, en San ...
Enhancing Sustainability in Intensive Dill Cropping: Comparative Effects of Biobased Fertilizers vs. Inorganic Commodities on Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Crop Yield, and Soil Properties
(MDPI, 2022)
The treatment and valorization of organic solid waste has become a promising alternative to increase intensive crop productivity while reducing its environmental impact. Currently, reusing improved organic waste as novel ...
Integrating critical values of soil drivers for mitigating GHGs: An assessment in a sugarcane cropping system
(Elsevier, 2020-02)
Agricultural practices can reduce emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG). The definition of management practices toward mitigating GHG emissions could gain accuracy by integrating critical values of soil variables related to ...
