      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 ...
    • Genome-wide diversity in lowland and highland maize landraces from southern South America: population genetics insights to assist conservation 

      Dominguez, Pia Guadalupe; Gutierrez, Ángela Verónica; Fass, Monica Irinia; Filippi, Carla Valeria; Vera, Pablo; Puebla, Andrea; Defacio, Raquel Alicia; Paniego, Norma Beatriz; Lia, Veronica Viviana (BioRxiv, 2024-02)
      Maize (Zea mays ssp. mays L.) landraces are traditional American crops with high genetic variability that conform a source of original alleles for conventional maize breeding. Northern Argentina, one the southernmost regions ...
    • On-field phenotypic evaluation of sunflower populations for broad-spectrum resistance to Verticillium leaf mottle and wilt 

      Montecchia, Juan Francisco; Fass, Monica Irina; Cerrudo, Ignacio; Quiroz, Facundo Jose; Nicosia, Salvador Maria; Maringolo, Carla Andrea; Di Rienzo, Julio A.; Troglia, Carolina Beatriz; Hopp, Horacio Esteban; Escande, Alberto; Gonzalez, Julio Horacio; Alvarez, Daniel; Heinz, Ruth Amelia; Lia, Veronica Viviana; Paniego, Norma Beatriz (Springer Nature, 2021-06)
      Sunflower Verticillium Wilt and Leaf Mottle (SVW), caused by Verticillium dahliae (Kleb.; Vd), is a soil-borne disease affecting sunflower worldwide. A single dominant locus, known as V1, was formerly effective in controlling ...
    • Plastome genomics in South American maize landraces: chloroplast lineages parallel the geographic structuring of nuclear gene pools
