A look at polyploidy and plant breeding
(Heighten Science Publications, 2022-11)Polyploidization is a process that generates genetic variability and therefore one of the engines of biological evolution. Since polyploidization produces important changes in the phenotype, mainly an increase in the size ... -
A rapid and affordable amplicon-based method for next generation genome sequencing of the infectious bursal disease virus
(Elsevier, 2023-12)The infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) causes a severe immunosuppressive disorder in young chickens. IBDV evolution resulted in the emergence of strains with divergent genetic, antigenic, and pathogenic characteristics. ... -
Analysing nonsynonymous mutations between two Mycobacterium bovis strains with contrasting pathogenic profiles
(Elsevier, 2019-12)Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) is the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis, a chronic infectious disease that can affect cattle, other domesticated species, wild animals and humans. This disease produces important economic ... -
Análisis genómico de girasol: desarrollo de colecciones de ESTs y de una plataforma bioinformática para estudios de expresión de genes candidato en respuestas a estreses abióticos
(Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 2006)El girasol es uno de los principales cultivos oleaginosos del mundo por su volumen de producción y composición en ácidos grasos insaturados. En promedio, durante los últimos cinco años, la producción mundial se ha mantenido ... -
Ancient Human Mitogenome of the Beagle Channel (Tierra del Fuego): An Argentine Collaborative Project
(Cambridge University Press, 2023-05)The increasing use of massively parallel sequencing in the study of current and ancient human populations has enabled new approaches to bioanthropological and archaeological issues; however, its application to archaeological ... -
Aportes a la producción sustentable de soja mediante el mejoramiento genético de los rizobios
(Facultad de Farmacia y Bioquímica, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 2022-07-14)La soja es el cultivo que consume más inoculantes a nivel global. Estos inoculantes están basados casi en su totalidad en cepas relacionadas de las especies Bradyrhizobium japonicum y Bradyrhizobium diazoefficiens. ... -
Characterization of two GH5 endoglucanases from termite microbiome using synthetic metagenomics
(Springer, 2020-08)Here, we characterize two novel GH5 endoglucanases (GH5CelA and GH5CelB) from an uncultured bacterium identified in termite gut microbiomes. Both genes were codon-optimized, synthetized, cloned, and expressed as recombinant ... -
Chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes of tomato
(2016)This chapter summarizes the main features of the tomato plastid and mitochondrial genomes in the context of the current knowledge about “orthologue” genomes from other higher plants species in a historical perspective. ... -
Científicos secuencian el genoma del tomate
(Gerencia de Comunicación e Imagen Institucional, DNA SICC, INTA, 2011-04)Un consorcio internacional, en el que participa el INTA y otras instituciones nacionales, logró identificar el código genético de este cultivo. El hallazgo permitirá implementar estrategias de mejoramiento para optimizar ... -
Complete Genome Sequence of Bradyrhizobium sp. Strain C-145, a Nitrogen-Fixing Rhizobacterium Used as a Peanut Inoculant in Argentina
(2022-08-01)We present the complete genome sequence of Bradyrhizobium sp. strain C-145, one of the most widely used nitrogen-fixing rhizobacteria for inoculating peanut crops in Argentina. The genome consists of 9.53 Mbp in a single ... -
Coupling virus-induced gene silencing to exogenous green fluorescence protein expression provides a highly efficient system for functional genomics in arabidopsis and across all stages of tomato fruit development
(2011-07)Since the advent of the postgenomic era, efforts have focused on the development of rapid strategies for annotating plant genes of unknown function. Given its simplicity and rapidity, virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) ... -
CRISPR/Cas9 and genetic screens in malaria parasites : small genomes, big impact
(Portland Press, 2022-06)The ∼30 Mb genomes of the Plasmodium parasites that cause malaria each encode ∼5000 genes, but the functions of the majority remain unknown. This is due to a paucity of functional annotation from sequence homology, which ... -
Desarrollo de marcadores funcionales y evaluación de la diversidad genética en Eucalyptus globulus con énfasis en genes potencialmente involucrados en características de calidad de la madera
(Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 2011)Eucalyptus globulus es la especie forestal con mejor aptitud papelera y para la obtención de bioenergía a partir de celulosa, mayormente plantada en regiones templadas del mundo. Los proyectos genómicos en Eucalyptus han ... -
