• Assessment of physiological races of Exserohilum turcicum isolates from maize in Argentina and Brazil 

      Navarro, Barbara Ludwig; Ramos Romero, Lucía; Kistner, María Belén; Iglesias, Juliana; Von Tiedemann, Andreas (Springer, 2021-02)
      Northern corn leaf blight (NCLB) is one of the most important diseases in maize worldwide. It is caused by the fungus Exserohilum turcicum, which exhibits a high genetic variability for virulence, and hence physiological ...
    • Field-grown transgenic wheat expressing the sunflower gene HaHB4 significantly outyields the wild type 

      Gonzalez, Fernanda Gabriela; Capella, Matías; Ribichich, Karina Fabiana; Curín, Facundo; Giacomelli, Jorge Ignacio; Ayala, Francisco; Watson, Gerónimo; Otegui, María Elena; Lía Chan, Raquel (2019-02)
      HaHB4 is a sunflower transcription factor belonging to the homeodomain-leucine zipper I family whose ectopic expression in Arabidopsis triggers drought tolerance. The use of PCR to clone the HaHB4 coding sequence for wheat ...
    • Photoperiod-sensitivity genes shape floret development in wheat 

      Perez Gianmarco, Thomas; Slafer, Gustavo A.; Gonzalez, Fernanda Gabriela (2019-02)
      Lengthening the pre-anthesis period of stem elongation (or late-reproductive phase, LRP) through altering photoperiod sensitivity has been suggested as a potential means to increase the number of fertile florets at anthesis ...
    • Updated guidelines for gene nomenclature in wheat 

      Boden, S.A.; McIntosh, R.A.; Uauy, C.; Krattinger, S.G.; Dubcovsky, Jorge; Rogers, W.J.; Xia, X.C.; Badaeva, E.D.; Bentley, A.R.; Brown-Guedira, G.; Gonzalez, Fernanda Gabriela; Zhang, Y. (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 ...
