• Genomic re-assessment of the transposable element landscape of the potato genome 

      Zavallo, Diego; Crescente, Juan Manuel; Gantuz, Magdalena; Leone, Melisa; Vanzetti, Leonardo Sebastian; Masuelli, Ricardo Williams; Asurmendi, Sebastian (Springer, 2020-05)
      Transposable elements (TEs) are DNA sequences with the ability to autoreplicate and move throughout the host genome. TEs are major drivers in stress response and genome evolution. Given their significance, the development ...
    • Immune receptor genes and pericentromeric transposons as targets of common epigenetic regulatory elements 

      Cambiagno, Damián Alejandro; Nota, María Florencia; Zavallo, Diego; Rius, Sebastián Pablo; Casati, Paula; Alvarez, Maria Elena; Asurmendi, Sebastian (Wiley, 2018-12)
      Pattern recognition receptors (PRR) and nucleotide‐binding leucine‐rich repeat proteins (NLR) are major components of the plant immune system responsible for pathogen detection. To date, the transcriptional regulation of ...
    • Regulatory mechanisms behind the phenotypic plasticity associated with Setaria italica water deficit tolerance 

      Suguiyama, Vanessa Fuentes; Rodriguez, Jae Diana Paredes; Santos, Tatiane Cristina Nicomedio dos; Lira, Bruno Silvestre; de Haro, Luis Alejandro; Silva, João Paulo Naldi; Borba, Eduardo Leite; Purgatto, Eduardo; Silva, Emerson Alves da; Bellora Pereyra, Nicolás; Carrari, Fernando; Centeno, Danilo da Cruz; Bermudez Salazar, Luisa; Rossi, Magdalena; de Setta, Nathalia (Springer, 2022-05)
      Drought is one of the main environmental stresses that negatively impacts vegetative and reproductive yield. Water deficit responses are determined by the duration and intensity of the stress, which, together with plant ...
