Assessment of phenotypic variability among EEA INTA Pergamino sunflower lines: Its relationship with the grain yield and oil content
(2021-05)The aims of the present study were to assess the phenotypic diversity among 221 sunflower accessions of INTA Pergamino Sunflower Breeding Program, to obtain discriminant functions that allow the classification of new ... -
Breeding effects on canopy light attenuation in maize: a retrospective and prospective analysis
(Oxford University Press, 2022-03)The light attenuation process within a plant canopy defines energy capture and vertical distribution of light and nitrogen (N). The vertical light distribution can be quantitatively described with the extinction coefficient ... -
Climate impacts on crop yields in Central Argentina. Adaptation strategies
(2018-02)The Pampas is among the major agricultural regions in the world; a large proportion of Argentina crop production is originated in this region. The exportation of grain and oil crop represents more than 40% of the total ... -
Ecophysiological traits in maize hybrids and their parental inbred lines: Phenotyping of responses to contrasting nitrogen supply levels
(Elsevier, 2009-10)Maize (Zea mays L.) breeding based primarily on final grain yield has been successful in improving this trait since the introduction of hybrids. Contrarily, understanding of the variation in ecophysiological processes ... -
Environmental control of malting barley response to nitrogen in the Pampas, Argentina
(2018-04)Twenty five single-year field experiments were established in order to assess the effects of nitrogen fertilization on grain yield, size, and protein concentration, and to explain its response to fertilization with soil, ... -
Expressing the sunflower transcription factor HaHB11 in maize improves waterlogging and defoliation tolerance
(Oxford University Press, 2022-05)The sunflower (Helianthus annuus) transcription factor HaHB11 (H. annuus Homeobox 11) belongs to the homeodomain-leucine zipper family and confers improved yield to maize (Zea mays) hybrids (HiII × B73) and lines. Here we ... -
Higher than expected N2O emissions from soybean crops in the Pampas Region of Argentina: Estimates from DayCent simulations and field measurements
(Elsevier, 2022-08)In developing countries, agriculture generally represents a large fraction of GHG emissions reported in National Inventories, and emissions are typically estimated using Tier 1 IPCC guidelines. However, field data and ... -
Phenotypic plasticity for biomass partitioning in maize : genotype effects across a range of environments
(Elsevier, 2020-10)El rendimiento en grano de maíz está determinado por el genotipo (G), el ambiente (E) y los efectos de la interacción G × E que influyen en la expresión de los rasgos a lo largo del ciclo del cultivo. Líneas endocriadas e ... -
Prospects for plant productivity: from the canopy to the nucleus
(Oxford University Press, 2021-05)Population growth has been closely associated with agricultural production, since the first famine predicted by Malthus (1798) up to the Green Revolution of the past century. Today, we continue to face increasing demand ... -
Timing is everything: how planting period shapes nutritional quality, mycobiota characteristics, and mycotoxin contamination in maize (Zea mays) grains
(Springer Nature, 2024-01)Maize (Zea mays L.) is crucial in global grain markets and food/feed production. Fungal contamination in ears can adversely affect crop yield and diminish the nutritional value of grains. Moreover, many of the main pathogens ... -
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 ...
