Fine mapping of LrSV2, a race-specific adult plant leaf rust resistance gene on wheat chromosome 3BS
(Springer, 2014-05)Three leaf rust resistance genes were identified in the durable leaf rust resistant Argentinean wheat variety Sinvalocho MA: the seedling resistance gene Lr3 on distal 6BL and two adult plant resistance genes, LrSV1 and ... -
Canarypox virus expressing infectious bursal disease VP2 protein as immunogen for chickens
(Sociedade Brasileira de Microbiologia, 2014-05)Canarypox viruses (CNPV) carrying the coding sequence of VP2 protein from infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) were obtained. These viruses were able to express VP2 protein in vitro and to induce IBDV-neutralizing ... -
Differences in sperm storage and remating propensity between adult females of two morphotypes of the Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) cryptic species complex
(Cambridge University Press, 2014-06)The South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus, is a complex of cryptic species composed of at least seven morphotypes. Some of them, such as the Peruvian and Brazilian 1 morphotypes (which include Argentinean ... -
Estudio del proceso de apropiación por patentes de la tecnología de transgénesis vegetal en Argentina. Una visión desde las reivindicaciones
(Facultad Latinoamericana de Ciencias Sociales, 2014-07)La firma del ADPIC produjo, en nuestro país, la reforma de la legislación en materia de patentes. En efecto, el ADPIC establece estándares mínimos de protección y para adecuarse a ellos hubo que reformar la ley, lo cual ... -
Ongoing speciation within the Anastrepha fraterculus cryptic species complex: the case of the Andean morphotype
(Wiley, 2014-09)The Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) cryptic species complex is currently composed of seven taxonomically recognized morphotypes. Both, pre‐ and post‐zygotic isolation has been documented among ... -
Alfalfa snakin-1 prevents fungal colonization and probably coevolved with rhizobia
(BMC Plant Biology, 2014-09-17)Background: The production of antimicrobial peptides is a common defense strategy of living cells against a wide range of pathogens. Plant snakin peptides inhibit bacterial and fungal growth at extremely low concentrations. ... -
Genetics and biology of Anastrepha fraterculus: research supporting the use of the sterile insect technique (SIT) to control this pest in Argentina
(BMC, 2014-12)Two species of true fruit flies (taxonomic family Tephritidae) are considered pests of fruit and vegetable production in Argentina: the cosmopolitan Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata Wiedemann) and the new world ... -
Microsatellite markers from the ‘South American fruit fly’ Anastrepha fraterculusa: valuable tool for population genetic analysis and SIT applications
(BioMed Central, 2014-12-01)Background: Anastrepha fraterculus Wiedemann is a horticultural pest which causes significant economic losses in the fruit-producing areas of the American continent and limits the access of products to international markets. ... -
Alteraciones neuroinmunes inducidas por exposición a estrés prenatal. Participación de citoquinas y neurotrofinas. Influencia del sexo de la cría
(Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 2015)En el presente trabajo estudiamos el efecto del estrés prenatal (EP) en la respuesta neuroinmune en animales adultos. Observamos que machos y hembras respondieron diferente ante el EP, tanto a nivel inmunológico como ... -
Potential contribution of genomics and biotechnology in animal production
(Biblioteca Básica de Agricultura, 2015)Integration of Latin American countries into international agricultural markets requires animal production systems to be competitive. Demand of animal products is increasing due to population growth, and changes in lifestyle ... -
