A comprehensive analysis of the genetic diversity and environmental adaptability in worldwide Merino and Merino‑derived sheep breeds
(BioMed Central, 2023-04)Background: To enhance and extend the knowledge about the global historical and phylogenetic relationships between Merino and Merino-derived breeds, 19 populations were genotyped with the OvineSNP50 BeadChip specifically ... -
A look at polyploidy and plant breeding
(Heighten Science Publications, 2022-11)Polyploidization is a process that generates genetic variability and therefore one of the engines of biological evolution. Since polyploidization produces important changes in the phenotype, mainly an increase in the size ... -
A method for semi-field rearing of Varroa destructor (Acari: Varroidae) to obtain mites of controlled age and specific life cycle
(Les Amis d'Acarologia, 2023-03)Varroa destructor is one of the most devastating ectoparasites of the honey bee, Apis mellifera, worldwide. Given that V. destructor has very low survivability and exhibits no successful reproduction away from their natural ... -
A new variety of Solanum sisymbriifolium obtained by in vitro polyploidization
(Instituto de Pesquisas Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro, 2024)Solanum sisymbriifolium is a shrub native to South America and considered a weed of several important crops. Despite this, this species has proven nematicidal capacity and medicinal properties, due to its ability to produce ... -
A novel association of BoLA DRB3 alleles in BLV infected cattle with different proviral loads
(2017)Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is associated with the most common neoplastic disease of cattle. BLV has a silent dissemination in the herd due to infected cell exchange, thus the concentration of BLV-infected cells in blood ... -
A novel source of cytoplasmic male sterility in Calibrachoa pubescens
(2017)Calibrachoa pubescens is a species native from the south of Brazil, Uruguay and northeast Argentina. An accession identified as 7.3.1.1 was collected at San Martín Department in Corrientes Province, Argentina and is included ... -
A point of view on genetic resources and plant breeding
(Sociedade Brasileira de Floricultura e Plantas Ornamentais, 2022-03)Biodiversity is the set of living organisms that make up our battered planet and their interactions with the environment. It is made up of the Kingdoms: Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, and Monera. It provides the energy ... -
A synthesis of functional contributions of rhizobacteria to growth promotion in diverse crops
(Elsevier, 2022-12)The endophytic microbes are known to live asymptomatically inside their host and play crucial roles in the growth, development, fitness, and diversification of plants. The plant-endophyte association ranges from mutualism ... -
Absence of the nitrous oxide reductase gene cluster in commercial alfalfa inoculants is probably due to the extensive loss of genes during rhizobial domestication
(Springer, 2018-08)As other legume crops, alfalfa cultivation increases the emission of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O). Since legumesymbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria play a crucial role in this emission, it is important to understand ... -
Adh1 first intron polymorphisms in Argentinean populations of Ceratitis capitata
(2010-07)DNA size polymorphisms were utilized in a study of 24 natural populations of Ceratitis capitata Wiedemann (Diptera: Tephritidae) from Argentina. The first intron of alcohol dehydrogenase 1 gene (Adh1) was amplified using ... -
Age‑performance and intensity of grooming behavior toward Varroa destructor in resistant and susceptible Apis mellifera colonies
(Springer, 2022-10)Grooming behavior confers resistance to honey bees against Varroa destructor, being of interest to social immunity studies and breeding programs. The objective of this study was to characterize at the individual level the ... -
Alfalfa snakin-1 prevents fungal colonization and probably coevolved with rhizobia
(BMC Plant Biology, 2014-09-17)Background: The production of antimicrobial peptides is a common defense strategy of living cells against a wide range of pathogens. Plant snakin peptides inhibit bacterial and fungal growth at extremely low concentrations. ... -
An isopentenyl transferase transgenic wheat isoline exhibits less seminal root growth impairment and a differential metabolite profile under Cd stress
(Wiley, 2021-09)Cadmium is one of the most important contaminants and it induces severe plant growth restriction. In this study, we analyzed the metabolic changes associated with root growth restriction caused by cadmium in the early ... -
Analysis of the gut bacterial community of wild larvae of Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1: effect of host fruit, environment, and prominent stable associations of the genera Wolbachia, Tatumella, and Enterobacter
(Frontiers Media, 2022-03)The genus Anastrepha (Diptera Tephritidae) includes some of the most important fruit fly pests in the Americas. Here, we studied the gut bacterial community of 3rd instar larvae of Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1 through Next ... -
