(BioMed Central, 2020-12)Background: Thrombospondin-related anonymous protein (TRAP) has been described as a potential vaccine candidate for several diseases caused by apicomplexan parasites. However, this protein and members of this family have ... -
Identification and characterization of contrasting sunflower genotypes to early leaf senescence process combining molecular and physiological studies (Helianthus annuus L.)
(2016)Leaf senescence is a complex mechanism ruled by multiple genetic and environmental variables that affect crop yields. It is the last stage in leaf development, is characterized by an active decline in photosynthetic rate, ... -
Identification and characterization of metabolite quantitative trait loci in tomato leaves and comparison with those reported for fruits and seeds
(Springer, 2019-04)Introduction: To date, most studies of natural variation and metabolite quantitative trait loci (mQTL) in tomato have focused on fruit metabolism, leaving aside the identification of genomic regions involved in the ... -
Identification and characterization of Pythium graminicola, causal agent of kikuyu yellows in Argentina
(Springer, 2017-08)Kikuyu grass (Pennisetum clandestinum) is a perennial plant that belongs to the Poaceae family. In Argentina, it is used in warm areas as tropical pasture, forage and grass in gardens and sports fields. Species of Pythium ... -
Identification and characterization of soluble binding proteins associated with host foraging in the parasitoid wasp Diachasmimorpha longicaudata
(Plos, 2021-06)The communication and reproduction of insects are driven by chemical sensing. During this process, chemical compounds are transported across the sensillum lymph to the sensory neurons assisted by different types of soluble ... -
Identification and evaluation of new Mycobacterium bovis antigens in the in vitro interferon gamma release assay for bovine tuberculosis diagnosis
(Elsevier, 2015-12)Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is a common zoonotic disease, caused by Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis), responsible for significant economic losses worldwide. Its diagnosis is based on the detection of cell mediated immunity ... -
Identification and molecular characterization of Orf virus infection in occupationally exposed women in South America
(Elsevier, 2023-06)Contagious Ecthyma (CE) is a severe exanthematous dermatitis caused by the Orf virus (ORFV) that mainly affects domestic small ruminants such as sheep and goats. It is a worldwide-distributed occupational zoonosis, ... -
Identification of a new cotton disease caused by an atypical cotton leafroll dwarf virus in Argentina
(2017)An outbreak of a new disease occurred in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) fields in northwest Argentina starting in the 2009–10 growing season and is still spreading steadily. The characteristic symptoms of the disease included ... -
Identification of bovine tuberculosis biomarkers to detect tuberculin skin test and IFNγ release assay false negative cattle
(Elsevier, 2019-02)Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is an important animal and zoonotic disease, which causes severe economic losses. The main focus of this study was to assess the predictive power of previously identified biomarkers of bTB in ... -
Identification of candidate genes associated with host-seeking behavior in the parasitoid wasp Diachasmimorpha longicaudata
(BioMed Central, 2024-02)Background: Diachasmimorpha longicaudata is a hymenopteran fruit fly endoparasitoid. Females of this species find their hosts for oviposition by using complex sensorial mechanisms in response to physical and chemical stimuli ... -
Identification of candidate genes associated with leaf senescence in cultivated sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)
(PLOS, 2014)Cultivated sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.), an important source of edible vegetable oil, shows rapid onset of senescence, which limits production by reducing photosynthetic capacity under specific growing conditions. ... -
Identification of four novel DC-SIGN ligands on Mycobacterium bovis BCG
(Springer, 2010-09)Dendritic-cell-specific intercellular adhesion molecule-3-grabbing non-integrin (DC-SIGN; CD209) has an important role in mediating adherence of Mycobacteria species, including M. tuberculosis and M. bovis BCG to human ... -
Identification of novel vaccine candidates against cryptosporidiosis of neonatal bovines by reverse vaccinology
(Elsevier, 2018-12)The apicomplexan protozoan Cryptosporidium parvum is an important causative agent of diarrhea of neonatal bovines. Vaccination has been proposed as an advantageous strategy against cryptosporidiosis of calves since besides ... -
