A physiological indicator to estimate allicin content in garlic during storage
(2013-08)The aim of the present work was to evaluate the application of a physiological indicator as marker of allicin content during postharvest storage at different temperatures. Sureño INTA garlic cultivar was stored at room ... -
Epigenetic patterns newly established after interspecific hybridization in natural populations of Solanum
(Wiley, 2013-10)Interspecific hybridization is known for triggering genetic and epigenetic changes, such as modifications on DNA methylation patterns and impact on phenotypic plasticity and ecological adaptation. Wild potatoes (Solanum, ... -
Volatile organic compounds characterized from grapevine (Vitis vinifera L. cv. Malbec) berries increase at pre-harvest and in response to UV-B radiation
(2013-12)Ultraviolet-B solar radiation (UV-B) is an environmental signal with biological effects in plant tissues. Recent investigations have assigned a protective role of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in plant tissues submitted ... -
Influence of Fusarium spp. isolate and inoculum density on resistance screening tests in onion
(Brazilian Phytopathological Society, 2014)Fusarium basal rot (FBR), which is caused predominantly by Fusarium oxysporum and F. proliferatum, is the main limiting factor of onion crops. Resistant cultivars obtained in other countries do not behave as such in ... -
Evaluación de cultivares de zanahoria en el Valle de Uco, Mendoza = Carrot cultivar evaluation in Uco Valley, Mendoza
(Asociación Argentina de Horticultura, 2014)En Argentina se cultivan entre 7.000 y 9.900 hectáreas con zanahoria abasteciendo el mercado interno y con un excedente que se exporta. Mendoza es la principal provincia productora. El objetivo del trabajo fue evaluar la ... -
Analysis of phenolic compounds in onion nectar by miniaturized off-line solid phase extraction-capillary zone electrophoresis
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014)Onion is an important vegetable crop which depends heavily on cross-pollinating insects for any significant increase in seed production. Nectar is the most important floral reward offered by plants. Minor components such ... -
Diversity, genetic mapping, and signatures of domestication in the carrot (Daucus carota L.) genome, as revealed by Diversity Arrays Technology (DArT) markers
(2014-03)Carrot is one of the most economically important vegetables worldwide, but genetic and genomic resources supporting carrot breeding remain limited. We developed a Diversity Arrays Technology (DArT) platform for wild and ... -
Comparison of two detection systems to reveal AFLP markers in plants
(2014-06)Since their development, AFLP (amplified fragment length polymorphism) markers have been used for a wide variety of analyses and, up to this day, are considered highly informative, robust, and reproducible molecular markers. ... -
Efecto de la densidad de plantas en el cultivo de zapallo tipo Anco (Cucurbita moschata) sobre la producción de frutos y semillas
(ASAHO, 2014-08)El zapallo es una hortaliza de alto valor social y económico para la Argentina. Las cultivares Frontera INTA y Cuyano INTA pertenecen a la especie Cucurbita moschata y poseen diferente arquitectura de planta que hace ... -
Solar UV-B radiation modifies the proportion of volatile organic compounds in flowers of field-grown grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) cv. Malbec
(2014-11)Ultraviolet-B solar radiation (UV-B) is an environmental signal with biological effects in different plant tissues. Recent investigations reported dramatic changes of terpenes with a protective role in plant tissues submitted ... -
Characterization of Capsicum germplasm collected in Northwestern Argentina based on morphological and quality traits
(2014-12)Paprika production is concentrated in Northwestern Argentina, where around 1500 ha are annually grown. Farmers mainly from Andean valleys, maintain their local landraces or “criollas” under different environmental conditions, ... -
A gene-derived SNP-based high resolution linkage map of carrot including the location of QTL conditioning root and leaf anthocyanin pigmentation
(2014-12)Purple carrots accumulate large quantities of anthocyanins in their roots and leaves. These flavonoid pigments possess antioxidant activity and are implicated in providing health benefits. Informative, saturated linkage ... -
Effects of combined or single exogenous auxin and/or cytokinin applications on growth and leaf area development in Epipremnum aureum
(2015)We have analysed the effects of combined auxin and cytokinin treatments on whole plant growth and leaf development in Epipremnum aureum and compared both morphological and physiological variables to those obtained with a ... -
Exogenous cytokinin promotes Epipremnum aureum L. growth through enhanced dry weight assimilation rather than through changes in partitioning
(SCIENCEDOMAIN international, 2015)Aims: Benzylaminopurine (BAP) sprays have been shown to increase leaf size and leaf appearance rate, as well as biomass accumulation in pot-grown Epipremnum aureum L. BAP-mediated enhanced growth could either be the ... -
Azospirillum brasilense ameliorates the response of Arabidopsis thaliana to drought mainly via enhancement of ABA levels
(2015-01)Production of phytohormones is one of the main mechanisms to explain the beneficial effects of plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) such as Azospirillum sp. The PGPRs induce plant growth and development, and reduce ... -
Catechin and quercetin attenuate adipose inflammation in fructose‐fed rats and 3T3‐L1 adipocytes
(Wiley, 2015-04)Scope This study evaluated the capacity of dietary catechin (C), quercetin (Q), and the combination of both (CQ), to attenuate adipose inflammation triggered by high fructose (HFr) consumption in rats and by tumor necrosis ... -
Adjustment of a rapid method for quantification of Fusarium spp. spore suspensions in plant pathology = Ajuste de un método rápido para la cuantificación de suspensiones de esporas de Fusarium spp. en fitopatología
(2015-06)The use of a Neubauer chamber is a broadly employed method when cell suspensions need to be quantified. However, this technique may take a long time and needs trained personnel. Spectrophotometry has proved to be a rapid, ... -
Short‐term hybridisation activates Tnt1 and Tto1 Copia retrotransposons in wild tuber‐bearing Solanum species
(2015-07)Interspecific hybridisation in tuber‐bearing species of Solanum is a common phenomenon and represents an important source of variability, crucial for adaptation and speciation of potato species. In this regard, the effects ... -
