Exploring sunflower responses to Sclerotinia head rot at early stages of infection using RNA‑seq analysis
(Springer Nature, 2020-08)Sclerotinia head rot (SHR), caused by the necrotrophic fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, is one of the most devastating sunflower crop diseases. Despite its worldwide occurrence, the genetic determinants of plant resistance ... -
The ALS gene as genetic target in CRISPR/ cas approaches: what have we learned so far?
(Crimson Publishers, 2020-08)Specific mutations in the conserved domains of the acetolactate synthase (ALS) gene conduct to different key amino acid substitutions that can confer herbicide resistance in different plant species. This outcome has been ... -
Genetic variation and heteroplasmy of Varroa destructor inferred from ND4 mtDNA sequences
(Springer, 2020-02)Varroa destructor, a parasitic mite of the western honey bee, Apis mellifera L., is a serious threat to colonies and beekeeping worldwide. Population genetics studies of the mite have provided information on two mitochondrial ... -
Infestation of fruit by conspecific and heterospecific females deters oviposition in two Tephritidae fruit fly species
(Wiley, 2020-09)Tephritidae fruit fly larvae develop entirely in the host chosen by the females. To improve the fitness of their progeny, females would benefit from rejecting previously exploited hosts. Anastrepha fraterculus and Ceratitis ... -
A new molecular method for the rapid subtyping of bovine herpesvirus 1 field isolates
(Sage Publications, 2020-02)Bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) causes several clinical syndromes in cattle worldwide. There are 3 subtypes of BoHV-1: 1.1, 1.2a, and 1.2b. Several molecular methods are commonly used in the detection and characterization ... -
Synthetic multi-antibiotic resistant plasmids in plant-associated bacteria from agricultural soils
(Elsevier, 2020-09)Objectives: Unlike higher organisms such as domestic animals and cultivated plants, which display a robust reproductive isolation and limited dispersal ability, microbes exhibit an extremely promiscuous gene flow and can ... -
Wolbachia pipientis associated with tephritid fruit fly pests: from basic research to applications
(Frontiers Media, 2020-06)Members of the true fruit flies (family Tephritidae) are among the most serious agricultural pests worldwide, whose control and management demands large and costly international efforts. The need for cost-effective and ... -
Exploring the factors involved in the absence of parasitism of Chaetosiphon fragaefolii by generalist parasitoids in strawberry
(Springer, 2020-08)Chaetosiphon fragaefolii Cockerell (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is a worldwide strawberry pest with scarce records of parasitoids for its control. The parasitization rate of two generalist parasitoids, Aphidius colemani Viereck ... -
Development and diagnostic validation of an ELISA based on an antigenic mixture for the detection of bovine tuberculosis
(Elsevier, 2020-02)Programs for the eradication of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) focus on the tuberculin skin test (TST) and slaughter of reactor cattle. However, the disease remains an animal health concern in several countries and improving ... -
In silico identification of immunotherapeutic and diagnostic targets in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol metabolism of the coccidian Sarcocystis aucheniae
(Wiley, 2020-07)Meat of the South American camelids (SACs) llama and alpaca is an important source of animal protein and income for rural families in the Andes, and a product with significant growth potential for local and international ... -
Susceptibility of agricultural pests of regional importance in South America to a Bacillus thuringiensis Cry1Ia protein
(Elsevier, 2020-05)Bacillus thuringiensis toxins of the Cry1I class have dual specificity for insects in the orders Coleoptera and Lepidoptera. We assessed the toxicity of a Cry1Ia protein from an Argentinian B. thuringiensis strain against ... -
Genetic variants in Argentinean isolates of Spodoptera frugiperda Multiple Nucleopolyhedrovirus
(Springer, 2020)The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (JE Smith) is a key pest in the Americas. Control strategies are mainly carried out by use of chemical insecticides and transgenic crops expressing Bacillus thuringiensis toxins. ... -
Highly sensitive nested PCR and rapid immunochromatographic detection of Babesia bovis and Babesia bigemina infection in a cattle herd with acute clinical and fatal cases in Argentina
(Wiley, 2020-07)Bovine babesiosis is a tick‐transmitted haemoparasitic disease caused by Babesia bovis and B. bigemina affecting cattle of tropical and subtropical regions around the world. Pathogens are transmitted by the tick vector ... -
High genetic diversity and differentiation of the babesia ovis population in Turkey
(Wiley, 2020-07)Babesia ovis is a tick‐transmitted protozoan haemoparasite causing ovine babesiosis in sheep and goats leading to considerable economic loss in Turkey and neighbouring countries. There are no vaccines available, therapeutic ... -
Molecular diagnosis of Leishmania spp. in dogs of a subtropical locality of Argentina
(Wiley, 2020-07)Leishmaniosis is a tropical and subtropical vector‐borne disease caused by hemoparasites of the genus Leishmania. The disease can infect humans, as well as domestic and wildlife animals. Dogs are the main reservoir for L. ... -
