• Oxidative stress mitigation in horticultural crops using foliar applications of Ilex paraguariensis extract: a dose-dependent study 

      Yonny, Melisa Evangelina; Toscano Adamo, Maria L.; Rodriguez Torressi, Ariel; Reversat, Guillaume; Binqging, Zhou; Oger, Camille; Galano, Jean-Marie; Durand, Thierry; Vigor, Claire; Nazareno, Mónica Azucena (Wiley, 2023-11)
      Abiotic stress has been shown to induce the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plant cells. When the level of ROS surpasses the capacity of the endogenous defence mechanism, oxidative stress status is reached, ...
    • The economic cost of losing native pollinator species for orchard production 

      Pérez-Méndez, Néstor; Andersson, Georg K.S.; Requier, Fabrice; Hipólito, Juliana; Aizen, Marcelo Adrian; Morales, Carolina Laura; García, Nancy; Gennari, Gerardo Pablo; Garibaldi, Lucas Alejandro (Wiley, 2020)
      1. The alarming loss of pollinator diversity world-wide can reduce the productivity of pollinator-dependent crops, which could have economic impacts. However, it is unclear to what extent the loss of a key native pollinator ...
    • Transcription factors associated with leaf senescence in crops 

      Bengoa Luoni, Sofia Ailin; Astigueta, Francisco; Nicosia, Salvador; Moschen, Sebastian; Fernandez, Paula Del Carmen; Heinz, Ruth Amelia (MDPI, 2019-10)
      Leaf senescence is a complex mechanism controlled by multiple genetic and environmental variables. Different crops present a delay in leaf senescence with an important impact on grain yield trough the maintenance of the ...
