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. ... -
Caracterización morfo-agronómica de poblaciones de zapallo criollo (cucurbita maxima Duch.) colectadas en los valles andinos de la Argentina
(2016-06)En los valles andinos de la Argentina las familias producen hortalizas en forma tradicional principalmente para el autoconsumo. El zapallo (Cucurbita maxima) es un cultivo americano de gran importancia en las economías ... -
Onion Hybrid Seed Production: Relation with Nectar Composition and Flower Traits
(2018-05)Onion (Allium cepa L.) is one of the main vegetable crops. Pollinators are required for onion seed production, being honeybees the most used. Around the world, two types of onion varieties are grown: open pollinated (OP) ... -
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, ... -
Changes in leaf size and in the rate of leaf production contribute to cytokinin-mediated growth promotion in Epipremnum aureum L. cuttings
(2013)The growth of ornamental foliage plants is often limited by pot size, which exerts a restriction on root growth and, therefore, on the production of root-synthesised cytokinins which play key regulatory roles in the ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Microsatellite analysis and marker development in garlic: distribution in EST sequence, genetic diversity analysis, and marker transferability across Alliaceae
(2018-04)Allium vegetables, such as garlic and onion, have understudied genomes and limited molecular resources, hindering advances in genetic research and breeding of these species. In this study, we characterized and compared the ... -
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 ... -
Reproductive biology of the native forage grass Trichloris crinita (Poaceae, Chloridoideae)
(2017-05)Trichloris crinita is a perennial forage grass species native to arid regions of the American continent. Due to its extensive area of distribution, good forage quality and resistance to drought and grazing, this species ... -
Role of ABA and Gibberellin A3 on gene expression pattern of sugar transporters and invertases in Vitis vinifera cv. Malbec during berry ripening
(2018-03)Sugars are key constituents that affect quality of grape berries, and consequently the grape metabolic profile relevant to wine’s industry. However, enzymes and transporter genes expression involved in sugar transport at ... -
Transcriptome changes in grapevine (Vitis viniferaL.) cv. Malbec leaves induced by ultraviolet-B radiation
(2010-10)Ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B, 280-315 nm) is a natural component of sunlight, which has numerous regulatory effects on plant physiology. The nature of the response to UV-B is dependent on fluence rate, dose, duration and ... -
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 ... -
ABA and GA3 regulate the synthesis of primary and secondary metabolites related to alleviation from biotic and abiotic stresses in grapevine
(2017-03)Plants are able to synthesize a large number of organic compounds. Among them, primary metabolites are known to participate in plant growth and development, whereas secondary metabolites are mostly involved in defense and ... -
ABA and GA 3 increase carbon allocation in different organs of grapevine plants by inducing accumulation of non-structural carbohydrates in leaves, enhancement of phloem area and expression of sugar transporters
(2016)Grape quality for winemaking depends on sugar accumulation and metabolism in berries. Abscisic acid (ABA) and gibberellins (GAs) have been reported to control sugar allocation in economically important crops, although the ... -
A high-quality carrot genome assembly provides new insights into carotenoid accumulation and asterid genome evolution
(2016)We report a high-quality chromosome-scale assembly and analysis of the carrot (Daucus carota) genome, the first sequenced genome to include a comparative evolutionary analysis among members of the euasterid II clade. We ... -
Allium sativum produces terpenes with fungistatic properties in response to infection with Sclerotium cepivorum
