Development of an Indirect ELISA Based on a Recombinant Chimeric Protein for the Detection of Antibodies against Bovine Babesiosis
(2018)The current method for Babesia spp. serodiagnosis based on a crude merozoite antigen is a complex and time-consuming procedure. An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA) based on a recombinant multi-antigen ... -
Influence of confluent marine currents in an ecotonal region of the South-West Atlantic on the distribution of larval anisakids (Nematoda: Anisakidae)
(BioMed Central, 2018)Background: In the marine environment, transitional zones between major water masses harbour high biodiversity, mostly due to their productivity and by containing representatives of species characteristic of adjacent ... -
Pre-breeding studies in Panicum coloratum var. coloratum: Characterization using agro-morphological traits and molecular markers = Estudios de pre-mejoramiento genético en Panicum coloratum var. coloratum : caracterización usando marcadores moleculares y caracteres agro-morfológicos
(CIAT, 2018)Panicum coloratum var. coloratum is a native African perennial C4 grass, introduced to Argentina. It is tolerant of salinity and cold and has good forage production. The scarce genotypic and phenotypic information about ... -
Diversidad de especies de micobacterias no tuberculosas aisladas en ambientes acuáticos de la ciudad de General Pico, La Pampa, Argentina = Species diversity of non-tuberculous mycobacteria isolated from aquatic environments of General Pico city, Province of La Pampa (Argentina)
(Asociación Argentina de Microbiología, 2018)Las micobacterias no tuberculosas (MNT) no solo se estudian por su importancia como patógenos oportunistas, sino también por sus aplicaciones en biotecnología y biorremediación. Nuestro objetivo fue determinar la presencia ... -
Simplified methodology for large scale isolation of homozygous transgenic lines of lettuce
(2018-01)Background: Lettuce is a globally important leafy vegetable and a model plant for biotechnology due to its adaptability to tissue culture and stable genetic transformation. Lettuce is also crucial for functional genomics ... -
Novel biotechnological platform based on baculovirus occlusion bodies carrying Babesia bovis small antigenic peptides for the design of a diagnostic enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
(Springer, 2018-01)Baculoviruses are large DNA virus of insects principally employed in recombinant protein expression. Its ability to form occlusion bodies (OBs), which are composed mainly of polyhedrin protein (POLH), makes them ... -
Distribution of anisakid nematodes parasitizing rajiform skates under commercial exploitation in the Southwestern Atlantic
(2018-02)In order to evaluate the infestation by anisakids present in elasmobranchs and their distribution in the Argentine Sea, this study was carried at a regional scale with the following aims: 1) to identify those anisakid ... -
Epidemiology of Babesia, Anaplasma and Trypanosoma species using a new expanded reverse line blot hybridization assay
(2018-02)Vector-borne hemoparasitic infections are a major problem that affects livestock industries worldwide, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions. In this work, a reverse line blot (RLB) hybridization assay was ... -
The genetic architecture of photosynthesis and plant growthrelated traits in tomato
(Wiley, 2018-02)To identify genomic regions involved in the regulation of fundamental physiological processes such as photosynthesis and respiration, a population of Solanum pennellii introgression lines was analyzed. We determined ... -
Utilization of molecular and conventional methods for the identification of nontuberculous mycobacteria isolated from different water sources
(Wolters Kluwer - Medknow, 2018-03)Background: The environment is the nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) reservoir, opportunistic pathogens of great diversity and ubiquity, which is observed in the constant description of new species capable of causing ... -
Mapping causal mutations by exome sequencing in a wheat TILLING population: a tall mutant case study
(Springer, 2018-04)Forward genetic screens of induced mutant plant populations are powerful tools to identify genes underlying phenotypes of interest. Using traditional techniques, mapping causative mutations from forward screens is a lengthy, ... -
Heterologous production and characterization of a thermostable GH10 family endo-xylanase from Pycnoporus sanguineus BAFC 2126
(Elsevier, 2018-04)Xylanases are key enzymes for agricultural biomass saccharification for the production of cellulosic ethanol. Success in enzymatic lignocellulose bioconversion is restricted by enzyme production costs, activity and stability ... -
Neuronal network analyses reveal novel associations between volatile organic compounds and sensory properties of tomato fruits
(Springer, 2018-05)Introduction The process of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) breeding has affected negatively the fruit organoleptic properties and this is evident when comparing modern cultivars with heirloom varieties. Flavor of tomato ... -
