Agroinoculation of a full-length cDNA clone of cotton leafroll dwarf virus (CLRDV) results in systemic infection in cotton and the model plant Nicotiana benthamiana
(2013-07)Cotton blue disease is the most important viral disease of cotton in the southern part of South America. Its etiological agent, cotton leafroll dwarf virus (CLRDV), is specifically transmitted to host plants by the aphid ... -
Discrimination of infested cotton squares by females of Anthonomus grandis
(2017)The avoidance of infested squares of Gossypium hirsutum as oviposition substrate by females of Anthonomus grandis was studied following two approaches. First, the preference for oviposition in infested versus non-infested ... -
Evaluation of hydrolytic enzyme activities from digestive fluids of Anthonomus grandis (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
(Wiley, 2020-08)The cotton boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis, is a major pest of cotton crops in South America. In this work, partial biochemical characterizations of (hemi) cellulases and pectinases activities in the digestive system (head‐ ... -
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 ... -
Induced mutations in crop plants : mutants of scientific and/or agronomic interest at the Institute of Genetics “Ewald A. Favret” = Mutaciones inducidas en plantas cultivadas : mutantes de interés interés científico y/o agronómico en el Instituto de Genética “Ewald A. Favret”
(Universidad San Francisco de Quito, 2021-05)The use of induced mutations techniques in crop plants at Instituto de Genética "Ewald A. Favret" (IGEAF) INTA, started in 1949, with the pioneer work of Ewald Favret, who studied the effects of physical and chemical ... -
Midgut Genes Knockdown by Oral dsRNA Administration Produces a Lethal Effect on Cotton Boll Weevil
(Springer, 2021-02)The “cotton boll weevil” (Anthonomus grandis Boheman) is a key pest in America whose larval stage develops within the cotton flower bud. During its development, the larva uses the flower bud as food and as a shelter from ... -
P0 protein of cotton leafroll dwarf virus-atypical isolate is a weak RNA silencing suppressor and the avirulence determinant that breaks the cotton Cbd gene-based resistance
(Wiley, 2019-08)Cotton blue disease (CBD) is the most important disease present in cotton crops in South America and cotton leafroll dwarf virus (CLRDV) is the causal agent. The disease has been controlled by sowing cotton varieties ... -
RNAi Expression in Cotton for Control of Herbivorous Insects
(Springer, 2022)Cultivated cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is heavily attacked by various species of insects worldwide and breeding of new varieties resistant to pests is still a hard battle to win. RNAi technology is an important reverse ... -
Selection of Bacillus thuringiensis strains toxic to cotton boll weevil (Anthonomus grandis, Coleoptera: Curculionidae) larvae = Selección de cepas de Bacillus thuringiensis tóxicas para larvas del picudo del algodonero (Anthonomus grandis, Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
(Asociación Argentina de Microbiología, 2017-09)Preliminary bioassays with whole cultures (WC) of 124 Bacillus thuringiensis strains were performed with neonate larvae of Anthonomus grandis, a major cotton pest in Argentina and other regions of the Americas. Three exotic ... -
The P0 protein encoded by cotton leafroll dwarf virus (CLRDV) inhibits local but not systemic RNA silencing
(2014-02)Plants employ RNA silencing as a natural defense mechanism against viruses. As a counter-defense, viruses encode silencing suppressor proteins (SSPs) that suppress RNA silencing. Most, but not all, the P0 proteins encoded ... -
Transcriptomic Survey of the Midgut of Anthonomus grandis (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
(Entomological Society of America, 2014-11)Anthonomus grandis Boheman is a key pest in cotton crops in the New World. Its larval stage develops within the flower bud using it as food and as protection against its predators. This behavior limits the effectiveness ...
