      Bossio, Adrian Ezequiel; Diaz Paleo, Antonio Horacio; Del Vas, Mariana; Baroli, Irene; Acevedo, Alberto; Rios, Raul Daniel (Springer, 2013-02)
      Somatic embryogenesis in scutella of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a well documented phenomenon and it has been shown through transcriptome analysis that genes involved in antioxidant responses, particularly in glutathione ...
    • Stress-induced expression of IPT gene in transgenic wheat reduces grain yield penalty under drought
