Plant growth-promoting genes can switch to be virulence factors via horizontal gene transfer
(Springer, 2018-10)There are increasing evidences that horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is a critical mechanism of bacterial evolution, while its complete impact remains unclear. A main constraint of HGT effects on microbial evolution seems ... -
Plant-based vaccine candidate against Infectious bursal disease: an alternative to inactivated vaccines for breeder hens
(Elsevier, 2019-08)Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is an acute, highly contagious immunosuppressive disease that affects young birds causing important economic losses in the poultry industry worldwide. Strict hygiene management together with ... -
Plant-based vaccine for livestock : key points to unleash platform translation in developing countries
(2016-12)Ten years ago the first plant-based vaccine was licensed (DowAgrosciences). It was only 20 years after the first report of a recombinant protein obtained through plant transformation technology. Back then, this vaccine was ... -
Plant‐produced viral bovine vaccines: what happened during the last 10 years?
(Wiley, 2015-10)Vaccination has proved to be an efficient strategy to deal with viral infections in both human and animal species. However, protection of cattle against viral infections is still a major concern in veterinary science. ... -
Plastome genomics in South American maize landraces: chloroplast lineages parallel the geographic structuring of nuclear gene pools
(Oxford University Press, 2021-03)Background and Aims: The number of plastome sequences has increased exponentially during the last decade. However, there is still little knowledge of the levels and distribution of intraspecific variation. The aims of this ... -
Plastome mutations and recombination events in barley chloroplast mutator seedlings
(2016)The barley chloroplast mutator (cpm) is an allele of a nuclear gene that when homozygous induces several types of cytoplasmically inherited chlorophyll deficiencies. In this work, a plastome Targeting Induced Local Lesions ... -
Pollen aquaporins : the solute factor
(2016)In the recent years, the biophysical properties and presumed physiological role of aquaporins (AQPs) have been expanded to specialized cells where water and solute exchange are crucial traits. Complex but unique processes ... -
Pollen-specific aquaporins NIP4;1 and NIP4;2 are required for pollen development and pollination in Arabidopsis thaliana
(2016)In flowers with dry stigmas, pollen development, pollination, and pollen tube growth require spatial and temporal regulation of water and nutrient transport. To better understand the molecular mechanisms involved in ... -
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) ... -
Polymorphisms of 20 regulatory proteins between Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis
(2016)Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis are responsible for tuberculosis in humans and animals, respectively. Both species are closely related and belong to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC). M. ... -
Polyparasitism and zoonotic parasites in dogs from a rural area of the Argentine Chaco
(Elsevier, 2019-04)Dogs play an important role as reservoirs and hosts of multiple pathogens shared with humans and wildlife, which contribute significantly to the global burden of disease. Here, we assessed the occurrence of a broad range ... -
Population Development of the Invasive Species Thaumastocoris peregrinus (Hemiptera: Thaumastocoridae) on four Eucalyptus Species of the Subgenus Symphyomyrtus
(Springer, 2018-06)Thaumastocoris peregrinus Carpintero & Dellapé (Hemiptera: Thaumastocoridae) is a small sap-sucking insect that feeds on Eucalyptus L’Hér. leaves. Although it is native to Australia, it currently has a global distribution ... -
Population genetics structure of glyphosate‐resistant Johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense L. Pers) does not support a single origin of the resistance
(Wiley, 2013-09)Single sequence repeats (SSR) developed for Sorghum bicolor were used to characterize the genetic distance of 46 different Sorghum halepense (Johnsongrass) accessions from Argentina some of which have evolved toward ... -
Population structure and genetic diversity characterization of a sunflower association mapping population using SSR and SNP markers
(BMC, 2015-02)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 ... -
Post-mortem findings in southern right whales Eubalaena australis at Península Valdés, Argentina, 2003-2012
(2016)Between 2003 and 2012, 605 southern right whales (SRW; Eubalaena australis) were found dead along the shores of Península Valdés (PV), Argentina. These deaths included alarmingly high annual losses between 2007 and 2012, ... -
Potato snakin-1 gene enhances tolerance to Rhizoctonia solani and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in transgenic lettuce plants
