Vaccination against δ-retroviruses : the bovine leukemia virus paradigm
(2014-06)Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) and human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) are closely related d-retroviruses that induce hematological diseases. HTLV-1 infects about 15 million people worldwide, mainly in subtropical ... -
Differences in sperm storage and remating propensity between adult females of two morphotypes of the Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) cryptic species complex
(Cambridge University Press, 2014-06)The South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus, is a complex of cryptic species composed of at least seven morphotypes. Some of them, such as the Peruvian and Brazilian 1 morphotypes (which include Argentinean ... -
Physiopathological effects of Escherichia coli O157:H7 inoculation in weaned calves fed with colostrum containing antibodies to EspB and Intimin
(Elsevier, 2014-06-24)Escherichia coli O157:H7 is responsible for severe intestinal disease and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a serious systemic complication which particularly affects children. Cattle are the primary reservoir for E. coli ... -
Detection of bovine herpesvirus 2 and bovine herpesvirus 4 DNA in trigeminal ganglia of naturally infected cattle by polymerase chain reaction
(Elsevier, 2014-06-25)Establishment of latent infection within specific tissues in the host is a common biological feature of the herpesviruses. In the case of bovine herpesvirus 2 (BoHV-2), latency is established in neuronal tissues, while ... -
Natural occurring epialleles determine vitamin E accumulation in tomato fruits
(2014-07)Vitamin E (VTE) content is a low heritability nutritional trait for which the genetic determinants are poorly understood. Here, we focus on a previously detected major tomato VTE quantitative trait loci (QTL; mQTL9-2-6) ... -
Estudio del proceso de apropiación por patentes de la tecnología de transgénesis vegetal en Argentina. Una visión desde las reivindicaciones
(Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales, 2014-07)La firma del ADPIC produjo, en nuestro país, la reforma de la legislación en materia de patentes. En efecto, el ADPIC establece estándares mínimos de protección y para adecuarse a ellos hubo que reformar la ley, lo cual ... -
Estudio de los cambios transcriptómicos producidos por infecciones virales en plantas, rol de fitohormonas y su vinculación con la progresión de síntomas
(Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 2014-08)Las pérdidas en cultivos ocasionadas por virus dependen mayormente de la severidad de los síntomas producidos. La comprensión de los mecanismos moleculares que subyacen a la producción de síntomas es de importancia para ... -
Pre-columbian mycobacterial genomes reveal seals as a source of new world human tuberculosis
(Springer Nature, 2014-08)Modern strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from the Americas are closely related to those from Europe, supporting the assumption that human tuberculosis was introduced post-contact1. This notion, however, is incompatible ... -
Polymorphisms at the 3′ untranslated region of SLC11A1 gene are associated with protection to Brucella infection in goats
(Elsevier, 2014-08-15)Goats are susceptible to brucellosis and the detection of Brucella-infected animals is carried out by serological tests. In other ruminant species, polymorphisms in microsatellites (Ms) of 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR) ... -
Experimental selection of long‐term intracellular mycobacteria
(Wiley, 2014-09)Some intracellular bacteria are known to cause long‐term infections that last decades without compromising the viability of the host. Although of critical importance, the adaptations that intracellular bacteria undergo ... -
First report of Trichinella spiralis from the white-eared (Didelphis albiventris) and the thick-tailed opossum (Lutreolina crassicaudata) in central Argentina
(Springer, 2014-09)Trichinellosis is a zoonotic disease caused by nematodes of the genus Trichinella. Humans, who are the final hosts, acquire the infection by eating raw or undercooked meat of different animal origin. Trichinella spiralis ... -
Ongoing speciation within the Anastrepha fraterculus cryptic species complex: the case of the Andean morphotype
(Wiley, 2014-09)The Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) cryptic species complex is currently composed of seven taxonomically recognized morphotypes. Both, pre‐ and post‐zygotic isolation has been documented among ... -
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 ... -
Alfalfa snakin-1 prevents fungal colonization and probably coevolved with rhizobia
(BMC Plant Biology, 2014-09-17)Background: The production of antimicrobial peptides is a common defense strategy of living cells against a wide range of pathogens. Plant snakin peptides inhibit bacterial and fungal growth at extremely low concentrations. ... -
Subclinical ketosis in dairy cows: prevalence and risk factors in grazing production system
(Wiley, 2014-10)The purpose of this study was to estimate the prevalence of Subclinical ketosis (SCK) between 4 and 19 days in milk (DIM) in a grazing production system and investigate the importance of potential risk factors for SCK. ... -
Vaccines against bovine babesiosis: where we are now and possible roads ahead
(Cambridge University Press, 2014-10)Bovine babesiosis caused by the tick-transmitted haemoprotozoans Babesia bovis, Babesia bigemina and Babesia divergens commonly results in substantial cattle morbidity and mortality in vast world areas. Although existing ... -
Comparative histopathological and immunological study of two field strains of chicken anemia virus
(BioMed Central, 2014-10)Infection of poultry with chicken anemia virus (CAV) is implicated in several field problems in broiler flocks due to the immunosuppression generated and, consequently, the increased susceptibility to secondary infections. ... -
Tomato Abscisic Acid Stress ripening (ASR) gene family revisited
(PLOS, 2014-10-13)Tomato ABSCISIC ACID RIPENING 1 (ASR1) was the first cloned plant ASR gene. ASR orthologs were then cloned from a large number of monocot, dicot and gymnosperm plants, where they are mostly involved in response to abiotic ... -
