Galacturonosyltransferase 4 silencing alters pectin composition and carbon partitioning in tomato
(2013-04)Pectin is a main component of the plant cell wall and is the most complex family of polysaccharides in nature. Its composition is essential for the normal growth and morphology pattern, as demonstrated by pectin-defective ... -
Galectin‐8 activates dendritic cells and stimulates antigen‐specific immune response elicitation
(2017-11)Galectin‐8 (Gal‐8) is a mammalian β‐galactoside‐binding lectin, endowed with proinflammatory properties. Given its capacity to enhance antigen‐specific immune responses in vivo, we investigated whether Gal‐8 was also able ... -
Generalized glycogenosis in Brahman-derived breeds: diagnosis and prevalence in Argentina
(Springer, 2019-08)Generalized glycogenosis is a lethal autosomal recessive disease caused by a deficient activity of the acidic 1,4-α-glucosidase enzyme and characterized by an accumulation of glycogen within lysosomes. Three mutations in ... -
Generation of a multi‑herbicide‑tolerant alfalfa by using base editing
(Springer, 2022-02)We present the first report on base editing in alfalfa. Specifically, we showed edited alfalfa with tolerance to both sulfonylurea- and imidazolinone-type herbicides. Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is one of the most important ... -
Genetic analysis of environmental strains of the plant pathogen Phytophthora capsici reveals heterogeneous repertoire of effectors and possible effector evolution via genomic island
(Oxford University Press, 2015-11)Phytophthora capsici is a virulent oomycete pathogen of many vegetable crops. Recently, it has been demonstrated that the recognition of the RXLR effector AVR3a1 of P. capsici (PcAVR3a1) triggers a hypersensitive response ... -
Genetic analysis of the 3′ untranslated region of the bovine SLC11A1 gene reveals novel polymorphisms
(Springer, 2013-01)Polymorphisms in microsatellites at the 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR) of the SLC11A1 (solute carrier family 11 member A1) gene have been associated with natural resistance to Brucella abortus and Mycobacterium bovis ... -
Genetic and productive background of Criollo cattle in Argentina, Mexico, Uruguay and the United States
(Elsevier, 2022-05)Cattle were first introduced to the Western Hemisphere in 1493 and by subsequent introductions from the Iberian Peninsula, providing the genetic background of the American Criollo cattle, with influences from Spanish, ... -
Genetic characterisation of PPARG, CEBPA and RXRA, and their influence on meat quality traits in cattle
(2016)Antecedentes: peroxisoma receptor gamma activado por el proliferador (PPARg), unión a CCAAT / potenciador de la proteína alfa (CEBPA) y el receptor de retinoides X alfa (RXRA) son factores de transcripción nuclear que ... -
Genetic dissection of vitamin E biosynthesis in tomato
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2011-07)Vegetables are critical for human health as they are a source of multiple vitamins including vitamin E (VTE). In plants, the synthesis of VTE compounds, tocopherol and tocotrienol, derives from precursors of the shikimate ... -
Genetic diversity and population structure in South African, French and Argentinian angora goats from genome-wide snp data
(2016)The Angora goat populations in Argentina (AR), France (FR) and South Africa (SA) have been kept geographically and genetically distinct. Due to country-specific selection and breeding strategies, there is a need to ... -
Genetic diversity in a world germplasm collection of tall fescue
(2013)Festuca arundinacea Schreb., commonly known as tall fescue, is a major forage crop in temperate regions. Recently, a molecular analysis of different accessions of a world germplasm collection of tall fescue has demonstrated ... -
Genetic diversity of maize landraces from lowland and highland agro‐ecosystems of Southern South America: implications for the conservation of native resources
(Wiley, 2012-05)The North of Argentina is one of the southernmost areas of maize landrace cultivation. Two distinct centres of diversity have been distinguished within this region: Northwestern Argentina (NWA), and Northeastern Argentina ... -
