Microorganisms as biocontrol agents against bacterial citrus diseases
(Elsevier, 2021-07)
Citrus represents one of the most widely grown crops on the planet, extensively cultivated for both the fresh fruit and juice markets. The productivity of citrus orchards can be seriously affected by highly aggressive ...
Evaluation of a lyophilized CRISPR-Cas12 assay for a sensitive, specific, and rapid detection of SARS-CoV-2
(MDPI, 2021-03)
We evaluated a lyophilized CRISPR-Cas12 assay for SARS-CoV-2 detection (Lyo-CRISPR SARS-CoV-2 kit) based on reverse transcription, isothermal amplification, and CRISPR-Cas12 reaction. From a total of 210 RNA samples extracted ...
N-Glycosylation in piroplasmids : Diversity within simplicity
(MDPI, 2021-01)
N-glycosylation has remained mostly unexplored in Piroplasmida, an order of tick-transmitted pathogens of veterinary and medical relevance. Analysis of 11 piroplasmid genomes revealed three distinct scenarios regarding ...
An improved DNA vaccine against bovine herpesvirus-1 using CD40L and a chemical adjuvant induces specific cytotoxicity in mici
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2021-03)
Bovine herpesvirus-1 (BoHV-1) uses many mechanisms to elude the immune system; one of them is spreading intracellularly, even in the presence of specific antiviral antibodies. Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are necessary ...
Molecular characterization of novel Ehrlichia genotypes in Ixodes auritulus from Uruguay
(Elsevier, 2021-04)
Ehrlichia are small intracellular Gram-negative bacteria transmitted by ticks. These microorganisms cause ehrlichiosis, a complex of life-threatening emerging zoonoses and diseases of global veterinary relevance. The aim ...
Irrigation management transfer: The experience of the Río Dulce Irrigation Scheme, Argentina
(Wiley, 2021-01-31)
Many governments and international agencies have promoted irrigation management transfer (IMT) in order to reduce operations and maintenance costs and satisfy farmers' willingness to improve their irrigation service by ...
Influence of the time of fungicide application in the production of trichothecenes on field inoculated spikes from wheat grown in Argentina
(Springer, 2021-04-08)
Fusarium graminearum is considered the main causative agent of Fusarium Head Blight in wheat. The fungus produces mycotoxins of the trichothecene family that pose a significant threat to the health of animals and humans. ...
Early Selection for high spike fertility index in early generations increases grain number per unit area (and yield) of advanced breeding lines in bread wheat
(Wiley, 2023-03)
Spike fertility index (a.k.a. fruiting efficiency) at maturity (FEm -grain number per spike/g spike chaff at maturity-) and spike harvest index (SHI -grain weight per spike/g spike chaff weight at maturity-) are considered ...
Efectos de cultivos de cobertura sobre el agua del suelo, el aporte de carbono al sistema y el rendimiento de soja en diferentes ambientes
(Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional del Litoral, 2022-02)
La sustentabilidad de los ambientes agrícolas en la región pampeana húmeda argentina es afectada por el monocultivo de soja (Glycine max (L.) Merr.). La baja eficiencia en el uso de los recursos del ambiente durante los ...
Main factors influencing floral differentiation and fruit establishment in squash (Cucurbita spp.) = Principales factores que influyen en la diferenciación floral y el cuaje de frutos en zapallo (Cucurbita spp.)
(Asociación Argentina de Horticultura, 2021-08)
Different agronomic practices can be implemented to increase productivity in squashes (Cucurbita spp.), although they do not always render the same results. They depend on environmental factors such as temperature, ...
