• Developing integrated crop knowledge networks to advance candidate gene discovery 

      Hassani-Pak, Keywan; Castellote, Martín Alfredo; Esch, Maria; Hindle, Matthew; Lysenko, Artem; Taubert, Jan; Rawlings, Christopher John (Elsevier, 2016-12)
      The chances of raising crop productivity to enhance global food security would be greatly improved if we had a complete understanding of all the biological mechanisms that underpinned traits such as crop yield, disease ...
    • Fósforo disponible en suelos agrícolas de la región Pampeana y ExtraPampeana argentina 

      Sainz Rozas, Hernan Rene; Echeverria, Hernan Eduardo; Angelini, Hernán Pablo (Gerencia de Comunicación e Imagen Institucional, DNA SICC, INTA, 2012-04)
      La respuesta de los cultivos a la aplicación de fósforo (P) depende del nivel de disponible (P-Bray) en el suelo. Los objetivos de este trabajo fueron determinar la distribución de la concentración de P-Bray en suelos ...
    • Inclusion of cover crops in cropping sequences with soybean predominance in the southeast of the Humid Argentine Pampa 

      Martinez, Juan Pablo; Barbieri, Pablo Andres; Sainz Rozas, Hernan Rene; Echeverria, Hernan Eduardo (2013)
      The incorporation of a cover crop (CC) may be an alternative to increase soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) supply in crop sequences with a high frequency of soybean. The aims of this study were (i) to determine shoot biomass ...
    • Maize–soybean intensification alternatives for the Pampas 

      Monzón, Juan Pablo; Mercau, Jorge Luis; Andrade, José Francisco; Caviglia, Octavio; Cerrudo, Aníbal Alejandro; Cirilo, Alfredo Gabriel; Vega, Claudia Rosa Cecilia; Andrade, Fernando Hector; Calviño, P.A. (2014-06)
      Cultivating multiple crops as a land use alternative could increase system productivity and sustainability, providing options to soybean monoculture for the Argentinean Pampas. This study evaluates the performance of ...
    • Nitrogen balance for potato crops in the southeast pampas region, Argentina 

      Giletto, Claudia Marcela; Echeverria, Hernan Eduardo (Springer, 2013-01)
      The aim of this work was to build an N mass balance for the potato crop under irrigation conditions in the southeast pampas (Argentina) as a function of N rate and gravitational water. The experiment was developed in a ...
    • Persistencia del herbicida imazapir en el suelo y efectos fitotóxicos sobre cultivos de invierno y de verano 

      Gianelli, Valeria Rosana; Bedmar, Francisco; Monterubbianesi, María Gloria (Gerencia de Comunicación e Imagen Institucional, DNA SICC, INTA, 2011-04)
      Imazapir es un herbicida de amplio espectro de control, perteneciente al grupo químico de las imidazolinonas. En Argentina es aplicado a gran escala en los cultivos de girasol y maíz Clearfield. Debido a su acción residual ...
    • Potential for crop production increase in Argentina through closure of existing yield gaps 

      Aramburu Merlos, Fernando; Monzon, Juan Pablo; Mercau, Jorge Luis; Taboada, Miguel Angel; Andrade, Fernando Hector; Hall, Antonio Juan; Jobbagy Gampel, Esteban Gabriel; Cassman, Kenneth G.; Grassini, Patricio (Elsevier, 2015-12)
      Favorable climate and soils for rainfed crop production, together with a relatively low population density, results in 70–90% of Argentina grain production being exported. No assessment to date has tried to estimate the ...
    • Potential, attainable, and current levels of global crop diversity 

      Aramburu Merlos, Fernando; Hijmans, Robert J. (IOP Publishing, 2022-04-04)
      High levels of crop species diversity are considered beneficial. However, increasing diversity might be difficult because of environmental constraints and the reliance on a few major crops for most food supply. Here we ...
    • The scale dependency of spatial crop species diversity and its relation to temporal diversity 

      Aramburu Merlos, Fernando; Hijmans, Robert J. (National Academy of Sciences, 2020-10-20)
      Increasing crop species diversity can enhance agricultural sustainability, but the scale dependency of the processes that shape diversity and of the effects of diversity on agroecosystems is insufficiently understood. We ...
