Nutrient deficiency and hypoxia as constraints to Panicum coloratum growth in alkaline soils
(Wiley; British Grassland Society; European Grassland Federation, 2017-12)Alkaline and saline–alkaline soils impose severe restrictions on plant growth. Panicum coloratum var. coloratum is a perennial C4 forage grass widely used in tropical and subtropical environments. Published information on ... -
Obtaining sexual genotypes for breeding in buffel grass
(2013-09)Buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris L. syn. Pennisetum ciliare (L.) Link) is a species that is highly tolerant to drought and is used primarily as forage in drier regions throughout the subtropics and tropics. It reproduces ... -
Partial and total defoliation during the filling period affected grain industrial and nutraceutical quality in soybean
(Wiley, 2022-01-08)BACKGROUND: Little is known about soybean grain chemical composition response to defoliation. The objectives of our study were: (i) to quantify the impact of different levels and timing of defoliation during the filling ... -
Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase function at very early symbiont perception: a local nodulation control under stress conditions?
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2018-04)Root hair curling is an early and essential morphological change required for the success of the symbiotic interaction between legumes and rhizobia. At this stage rhizobia grow as an infection thread within root hairs and ... -
Physiological and anatomical traits associated with tolerance to long‐term partial submergence stress in the Lotus genus: responses of forage species, a model and an interspecific hybrid
(2018-09)Cattle production based on natural pastures is often subject to flooding periods, which affect plant performance and as a result, forage production. Although most forage legumes are not tolerant to flooding, Lotus spp. are ... -
Physiological causes for decreased productivity under high salinity in Boma, a tetraploid Chloris gayana cultivar
(CSIRO Publishing, 2001)Rhodes grass (Chloris gayana Kunth) is widely cultivated in the semi-arid tropics and favoured for salt tolerance; nevertheless, productivity decreases significantly under saline conditions, especially in tetraploid ... -
Physiological characterization of four model Lotus diploid genotypes: L. japonicus (MG20 and Gifu), L. filicaulis, and L. burttii under salt stress
(Elsevier, 2009-09-25)The genus Lotus comprises a heterogeneous group of annual and perennial species. Lotus japonicus (with MG20 and Gifu ecotypes) has been adopted as one of the model legumes in genetic and genomic studies. Other Lotus species, ... -
Plant Biology: New Insight into How Roots 'Mask Up'
(Cell Press, 2021-03-08)Extra- and trans-cellular barriers are essential for root function under even mild stress. New research shows that establishing both the lignin and suberin barriers in the Arabidopsis endodermis requires phenylpropanoid ... -
Plasticity in sunflower leaf and cell growth under high salinity
(Wiley, 2015-01)A group of sunflower lines that exhibit a range of leaf Na+ concentrations under high salinity was used to explore whether the responses to the osmotic and ionic components of salinity can be distinguished in leaf expansion ... -
Polyamines and flavonoids : key compounds in mycorrhizal colonization of improved and unimproved soybean genotypes
(Springer, 2018-11)Modern breeding programs might have caused a reduction in plant responsiveness to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). Flavonoids and polyamines (PAs) are hypothesized to play a role in this symbiosis. We tested the effects ... -
Polyamines and Legumes: Joint Stories of Stress, Nitrogen Fixation and Environment
(Frontiers Media, 2019-11-04)Polyamines (PAs) are natural aliphatic amines involved in many physiological processes in almost all living organisms, including responses to abiotic stresses and microbial interactions. On other hand, the family Leguminosae ... -
Potential Uses of Wild Germplasms of Grain Legumes for Crop Improvement
(2017)Challenged by population increase, climatic change, and soil deterioration, crop improvement is always a priority in securing food supplies. Although the production of grain legumes is in general lower than that of cereals, ... -
Prospective genetic gain to improve salinity tolerance in a population of Panicum coloratum var. coloratum with two different selection methods
(CIAT, 2021)Panicum coloratum var. coloratum is a subtropical grass for potentially increasing forage production in lowly productive environments where cattle-raising activities have been relocated. Heritability was estimated for ... -
Provenance matters: variability under saline stress in young plants of four populations of a Prosopis (mesquite) species from dry forests of Argentina
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2021-01-04)The planting of native perennial woody species tolerant to variable salt concentrations can facilitate the recovery of degraded dry forests. The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare, under experimentally ... -
La recula, como alternativa productiva en los sistemas hortícolas Pampeanos
(Facultad de Agronomía, Universidad Nacional de La Pampa, 2020-12)La horticultura pampeana, se sustenta en hortalizas de hoja cultivadas en invernaderos, la rúcula ocupa el cuarto puesto en lo que respecta a superficie y producción. En la última década, el cultivo comienza a ser importante ... -
Redox systemic signaling and induced tolerance responses during soybean–bradyrhizobium japonicum interaction: involvement of nod factor receptor and autoregulation of nodulation
(Frontiers Media, 2019-02)The symbiotic relationship between legumes and nitrogen-fixing rhizobia induces local and systemic responses, which ultimately lead to nodule formation. The autoregulation of nodulation (AON) is a systemic mechanism related ... -
Redox-related metabolites and gene expression modulated by sugar in sunflower leaves: similarities with Sunflower chlorotic mottle virus-induced symptom
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)Sugars are part of an integrated redox system, since they are key regulators of respiration and photosynthesis, and therefore of the levels of reducing power, ATP and ROS. These elements are major determinants of the ... -
Reductions in Maize Root-tip Elongation by Salt and Osmotic Stress do not Correlate with Apoplastic O2•− Levels
(Oxford Academic Press, 2008-10)Background and Aims: Experimental evidence in the literature suggests that O2•− produced in the elongation zone of roots and leaves by plasma membrane NADPH oxidase activity is required for growth. This study explores ... -
Response of determinate and indeterminate soybean cultivars to basal and topdressing N fertilization compared to sole inoculation with Bradyrhizobium
(Elsevier, 2016-08)Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) new cultivars have high N demands to sustain increasing grain yields. One may ask whether these cultivars would need basal and/or topdressing N application as perhaps symbiotic N2 fixation ... -
