(ASAHO, 2022-01)Aconcagua INTA is an Argentine widespread cucurbit cultivar with high yield and suitability for the dehydration industry, developed from an interspecific cross (Cucurbita maxima x Cucurbita moschata). Its seed production ... -
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, ... -
Plant dry weight and nutritive value of genetically diverse germplasm of false Rhodes grass [Leptochloa crinita (Lag.) P.M. Peterson and N.W. Snow], a native forage grass from arid regions of the Americas
(Wiley, 2021-12)The native forage, false Rhodes grass [Leptochloa crinita (Lag.) P.M. Peterson and N.W. Snow], represents an important component of the arid and semi-arid rangelands of the Americas, due to its large area of distribution ... -
Mulinum spinosum root extract, rich in antioxidant compounds, mitigates harmful effects in mice with diet-induced metabolic syndrome
(Elsevier, 2022-02)Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a health issue with a high incidence in adult population. Using herbal medicines for the management of serious complications of MetS, such as dyslipidemia and hyperglycemia, is ... -
El sistema semillero hortícola argentino = The argentinean vegetable seed system
(Asociación Argentina de Horticultura, 2020-12)El análisis del sistema de las semillas hortícolas en Argentina es un medio para establecer las fortalezas y debilidades de sus componentes, facilitando el diagnóstico de posibles acciones para mejorar el sistema. Este ... -
Ecophysiological groups of garlic cultivars: the updated Argentinean classification
(International Society for Horticultural Science, 2016-10)At the beginning of the 1990s, in an attempt to sort, in a practical and comprehensive way, the garlic varietal outlook of Argentina, a first Argentinean classification was proposed. Considering the natural dormancy length ... -
Variability of Allium sativum group sativum clones in Mendoza, Argentina
(International Society for Horticultural Science, 2012-12)Garlic came to Argentina mainly with the European immigration during the past century. Among the group sativum populations entered the most important were those brought by Italian and Spanish. Although accepted to belong ... -
Yield stability of ten garlic (Allium sativum) clonal cultivars in northern Patagonia, Argentina
(International Society for Horticultural Science, 2012-12)Since 1989, the Garlic Project of INTA (The National Institute of Agricultural Technology, Argentina) has obtained an important number of clonal cultivars by means of clonal selection. Those high yielding and top quality ... -
Determination of the effective radiation dose for mutation breeding in purple carrot (Daucus carota L.) and possible variations formed
(Springer, 2021-08)Background: Plant breeding allows altering the genetic structure of plants to meet human needs. The use of radiation technology for inducing mutations and -thereby- new phenotypic variants has become increasingly common ... -
Onion (Allium cepa L.) hybrid seed production: Sugar content variation during the flowering period
(Wiley, 2021-07)Honeybees are the most used pollinators for onion seed production. Two types of onion varieties are mainly grown worldwide: hybrids and open pollination (OP) cultivars. Although hybrids offer advantages to bulb growers, ... -
