Unravelling the complexity of maize resistance to bacterial and fungal diseases: an integrative perspective
(Springer Nature, 2022-02)Maize is one of the most important cereals for both human and animal nutrition, and diseases that affect the crop pose a major threat to global food security. Breeders are racing against time to develop genotypes resistant ... -
Updated guidelines for gene nomenclature in wheat
(Springer Nature, 2023-03)The last decade has seen a proliferation in genomic resources for wheat, including reference- and pan-genome assemblies with gene annotations, which provide new opportunities to detect, characterise, and describe genes ... -
Variabilidad, tendencia y eventos extremos en los rendimientos agrícolas a nivel de partidos en la Provincia de Buenos Aires
(Facultad de Ciencias Económicas, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 2022-06-09)Climate variability is the main determinant of fluctuations in the productive and economic results of agriculture. Due to Climate Change, extreme events are expected to occur with greater frequency and intensity in the ... -
Volatile compounds released by maize grains and silks in response to infection by Fusarium verticillioides and its association with pathogen resistance
(2016)Many plants respond to fungal infections by producing and/or emitting a specific blend of oxylipins, some of them through the lipoxygenase (LOX) pathway. In vitro bioassays revealed that volatiles from silks and grains of ... -
Water and nitrate exchange between cultivated ecosystems and groundwater in the Rolling Pampas
(Elsevier, 2009-12)Understanding nitrogen (N) exchange between cultivated ecosystems and groundwater becomes crucial in the Rolling Pampas where high and variable water table levels are accompanied by increasing N-fertilization rates. Field ... -
Water and radiation use efficiencies in maize: breeding effects on single-cross Argentine hybrids released between 1980 and 2012
(Elsevier, 2019-11)Water deficit has been signaled as an important determinant of grain yield (GY) gaps between potential and actual GYs. Breeding for improved water as well as solar radiation productivities is a sustainable means to reduce ... -
Wheat pre-anthesis development as affected by photoperiod sensitivity genes (Ppd-1) under contrasting photoperiods
(2018-01)Fine tuning wheat phenology is of paramount importance for adaptation. A better understanding of how genetic constitution modulates the developmental responses during pre-anthesis phases would help to maintain or even ... -
Wheat yield progress and stability during the last five decades in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2021-07)Improvement of grain yield (GY) at farm level, which is closely related to GY potential, seems to be the main alternative to increase wheat (Triticum aestivum L) production. The aim of current research was to assess the ... -
Yield determinants, root distribution and soil water uptake in maize (Zea mays) hybrids differing in canopy senescence under post-silking drought
(CSIRO Publishing, 2021-05)Delayed canopy senescence or ‘stay-green’ (SG) trait in maize (Zea mays L.) could improve drought tolerance. Two field trials comparing four to six maize hybrids with different senescence rate were carried out at Buenos ...
