      Background: Argentina has a long tradition of sunflower breeding, and its germplasm is a valuable genetic resource worldwide. However, knowledge of the genetic constitution and variability levels of the Argentinean germplasm ...
    • Seed dormancy QTL identification across a Sorghum bicolor segregating population 

      Cantoro, Renata; Fernandez, Luis German; Cervigni, Gerardo Domingo Lucio; Rodriguez, María V.; Gieco, Jorge Omar; Paniego, Norma Beatriz; Heinz, Ruth Amelia; Benech-Arnold, Roberto Luis (2016)
      Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) in Sorghum bicolor is one of the main constrains for its production in the central region of Argentina, as grain maturation often coincides with rainy or high environmental humidity conditions. ...
    • Snakin-1 affects reactive oxygen species and ascorbic acid levels and hormone balance in potato 

      Nahirñak, Vanesa; Rivarola, Maximo Lisandro; Almasia, Natalia Ines; Barrios Baron, María Pilar; Hopp, Horacio Esteban; Vile, Denis; Paniego, Norma Beatriz; Vazquez Rovere, Cecilia (PLOS, 2019-03-25)
      Snakin-1 is a member of the Solanum tuberosum Snakin/GASA family. We previously demonstrated that Snakin-1 is involved in plant defense to pathogens as well as in plant growth and development, but its mechanism of action ...
    • SNP genotyping by heteroduplex analysis 

      Paniego, Norma Beatriz; Fusari, Corina Mariana; Lia, Veronica Viviana; Puebla, Andrea Fabiana (Springer, 2015-10)
      Heteroduplex-based genotyping methods have proven to be technologically effective and economically efficient for low- to medium-range throughput single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) determination. In this chapter we describe ...
    • Sunflower germin-like protein HaGLP1 promotes ROS accumulation and enhances protection against fungal pathogens in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana 

      Beracochea, Valeria Cecilia; Almasia, Natalia Ines; Peluffo, Lucila; Nahirñak, Vanesa; Hopp, Horacio Esteban; Paniego, Norma Beatriz; Heinz, Ruth Amelia; Vazquez Rovere, Cecilia; Lia, Veronica Viviana (Springer, 2015-10)
      Germin-like proteins (GLPs) are a large, diverse and ubiquitous family of plant glycoproteins belonging to the Cupin super family. These proteins have been widely studied because of their diverse roles in important plant ...
    • Sunflower leaf senescence : a complex genetic process with economic impact on crop production 

      Moschen, Sebastian Nicolas; López Gialdi, Agustín I.; Paniego, Norma Beatriz; Fernandez, Paula del Carmen; Heinz, Ruth Amelia (2017)
      Leaf senescence is a complex process controlled by multiple genetic and environmental variables. In different crops, a delay in leaf senescence has an important impact on grain yield trough the maintenance of the photosynthetic ...
    • Transcript and metabolic adjustments triggered by drought in Ilex paraguariensis leaves 

      Acevedo, Raúl Maximiliano; Avico, Edgardo H.; Gonzalez, Sergio Alberto; Rodrigues Salvador, Acácio; Rivarola, Maximo Lisandro; Paniego, Norma Beatriz; Nunes Nesi, Adriano; Ruiz, Oscar Adolfo; Sansberro, Pedro Alfonso (Springer, 2019-08)
      Ilex paraguariensis (yerba mate) is cultivated in the subtropical region of South America, where the occurrence of drought episodes limit yield. To explore the mechanisms that allow I. paraguariensis to overcome dehydration, ...
    • Transcriptomic Survey of the Midgut of Anthonomus grandis (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) 

      Salvador, Ricardo; Perez Principi, Ricardo Dario; Berretta, Marcelo Facundo; Fernandez, Paula Del Carmen; Paniego, Norma Beatriz; Sciocco, Alicia Ines; Hopp, Horacio Esteban (Entomological Society of America, 2014-11)
