(Frontiers Media S.A., 2021-01-14)Food security is the pillar of nutritional wellbeing for food availability, and is necessary to satisfy all physiological needs to thus maintain the general wellbeing of populations. However, global agricultural deficiencies ... -
The cytosolic invertase NI6 affects vegetative growth, flowering, fruit set, and yield in tomato
(Oxford University Press, 2021-03)Sucrose metabolism is important for most plants, both as the main source of carbon and via signaling mechanisms that have been proposed for this molecule. A cleaving enzyme, invertase (INV) channels sucrose into sink ... -
The Effect of X-Rays on Cytological Traits of Tuta absoluta (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae)
(2016)The tomato leafminer, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) is one of the most important pests of tomato. With the purpose of developing environmentally friendly control tactics such as the inherited sterility ... -

The genetic architecture of photosynthesis and plant growthrelated traits in tomato
(Wiley, 2018-02)To identify genomic regions involved in the regulation of fundamental physiological processes such as photosynthesis and respiration, a population of Solanum pennellii introgression lines was analyzed. We determined ... -
The genome of the stress-tolerant wild tomato species Solanum pennellii
(Nature Publishing Group, 2014-09)Solanum pennellii is a wild tomato species endemic to Andean regions in South America, where it has evolved to thrive in arid habitats. Because of its extreme stress tolerance and unusual morphology, it is an important ... -
The Gln15Arg mutation in the transcriptional factor PALM1 produces multifoliate alfalfa
(Springer, 2022-12)The CRISPR/Cas9 system has proven to be highly valuable for genome editing in several important crops, including the allogamous tetraploid cultivated alfalfa (Medicago sativa). However, the fact that most of the beneficial ... -
The glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein repertoire of Babesia bovis and its significance for erythrocyte invasion
(2014-04)Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins are abundant on the surface of pathogenic protozoans and might play an important role for parasite survival. In the present work, the relevance of GPI-anchored proteins for ... -
The heart microbiome of insectivorous bats from Central and South Eastern Europe
(Elsevier, 2021-04)Host associated microbiome not only may affect the individual health-status or provide insights into the species- or group specific bacterial communities but may act as early warning signs in the assessment of zoonotic ... -
The key to egress? Babesia bovis perforin-like protein 1 (PLP1) with hemolytic capacity is required for blood stage replication and is involved in the exit of the parasite from the host cell
(Elsevier, 2021-07)Bovine babesiosis is a tick-borne disease caused by apicomplexan parasites of the Babesia genus that represents a major constraint to livestock production worldwide. Currently available vaccines are based on live parasites ... -
The MVA vector expressing the F protein of bovine respiratory syncytial virus is immunogenic in systemic and mucosal immunization routes = El vector viral MVA que expresa la proteína F del virus respiratorio sincicial bovino es inmunogénico al administrarse por vía sistémica y por mucosas
(Elsevier, 2023-12)Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) affects both beef and dairy cattle, reaching morbidity and mortality rates of 60---80% and 20%, respectively. The aim of this study was to obtain a recombinant MVA expressing the ... -
The origin and genetic diversity of the causal agent of Asian soybean rust, Phakopsora pachyrhizi, in South America
(Wiley, 2015-06)A sequence‐based approach was used to investigate molecular genetic variations in Phakopsora pachyrhizi, an obligate biotrophic pathogen that causes Asian soybean rust. In Argentina, the samples came from uredinium‐bearing ... -
The P0 protein encoded by cotton leafroll dwarf virus (CLRDV) inhibits local but not systemic RNA silencing
(2014-02)Plants employ RNA silencing as a natural defense mechanism against viruses. As a counter-defense, viruses encode silencing suppressor proteins (SSPs) that suppress RNA silencing. Most, but not all, the P0 proteins encoded ... -
The pest kill rate of thirteen natural enemies as aggregate evaluation criterion of their biological control potential of Tuta absoluta
(Springer, 2021-05-24)Ecologists study how populations are regulated, while scientists studying biological pest control apply population regulation processes to reduce numbers of harmful organisms: an organism (a natural enemy) is used to reduce ... -
