Multiple‑trait analyses improved the accuracy of genomic prediction and the power of genome‑wide association of productivity and climate change‑adaptive traits in lodgepole pine
(BMC, 2022-07-23)Genomic prediction (GP) and genome-wide association (GWA) analyses are currently being employed to accelerate breeding cycles and to identify alleles or genomic regions of complex traits in forest trees species. Here, 1490 ... -
Multiscale spatial planning to maintain forest connectivity in the Argentine Chaco in the face of deforestation
(Resilience Alliance, 2018)Agricultural expansion threatens biodiversity due to habitat loss and fragmentation. In the Gran Chaco, a global deforestation hotspot, rampant cropland and pasture expansion raise concerns about the sustainability of these ... -
Munroa argentina, a grass of the South American transtion zone, survived the Andean uplift, aridification and glaciations of the quaternary
(2015-06-25)The South American Transition Zone (SATZ) is a biogeographic area in which not only orogeny (Andes uplift) and climate events (aridification) since the mid-Miocene, but also Quaternary glaciation cycles had an important ... -
Nanostructured voltammetric sensor for ultra-trace anabolic drug determination in food safety field
(2013-11)A sensitive electrochemical sensor for clenbuterol (CL) determination in bovine urine samples was designed. This drug was originally developed for the treatment of respiratory pathologies. However, in the livestock industry, ... -
Neurobehavioral evaluation and phytochemical characterization of a series of argentine valerian species
(Elsevier, 2020-12)Folkloric or galenic preparations of valerian roots and rhizomes have been used as sedatives/anxiolytics and sleep inducers since ancient times. “Valerianas” are plants that naturally grow in our region. Although some of ... -
New records of Petunia (Solanaceae) for theArgentinean flora
(Instituto de Botánica Darwinion, 2005)Petunia interior and P. guarapuavensis are reported for the first time for the Argentinean flora, andtheir geographical distributions are updated. -
New data on the endangered Chacoan peccary (Catagonus wagneri) link the core distribution with its recently discovered southern population
(De Gruyter, 2018-09)The endangered Chacoan peccary (Catagonus wagneri Rusconi, 1930) has been recorded in western Paraguay, southeastern Bolivia and northern Argentina, reaching the north of Santiago del Estero province. Recently, however, ... -
New insights into antibacterial and antioxidant activities of rosemary essential oils and their main components
(2013-05)Rosemary plants growing in Argentina were studied to evaluate any relationship between the chemical composition of their essential oils and the free radical scavenging capacity. The antibacterial activity against human ... -
New insights into the chemical biodiversity of Minthostachys mollis in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2014-12)Variations in the chemical composition of the essential oils of Minthostachys mollis Griseb. (Lamiaceae) collected in their natural habitat in Argentina were determined using GC-FID-MS analysis. Seventy five samples collected ... -
Nitrogen–sulfur fertilisation effects on gluten composition and industrial quality in Argentinean bread wheat cultivars differing in apparent sulfur recovery
(CSIRO, 2021-03-12)Increasing wheat yield and grain quality is crucial for achieving profitable production systems. Genotype has an important role in determining potential grain end-use quality, because it defines the protein subunits stored ... -
Non-monotonic vegetation activity trends in the Lower Delta of the Paraná River: masking evidence of wetland degradation?
(Elsevier, 2021-09-14)To understand the consequences of unsustainable management practices and global change, analyzing the patterns of ecosystem functioning and land degradation is as important as quantifying the spatio-temporal patterns of ... -
Novedades en Cyrtopodium (Orchidaceae) para la Argentina. II
(Instituto de Botánica del Nordeste, 2012)Se describe por primera vez para la flora argentina una especie del género Cyrtopodium, C. paniculatum (Ruiz & Pav.) Garay. Se incluyen sinónimos, observaciones ecológicas y una clave para diferenciarla de las entidades ... -
A novel individual-tree mixed model to account for competition and environmental heterogeneity: a Bayesian approach
(Springer, 2015-12)Negative correlation caused by competition among individuals and positive spatial correlation due to environmental heterogeneity may lead to biases in estimating genetic parameters and predicting breeding values (BVs) from ... -
Occupancy of avian foraging guilds in soybean fields and borders in Entre Ríos, Argentina: responses to vegetation structure and prey resources
(BMC, 2020-12)Reconciling agriculture and biodiversity conservation is a challenge given the growing demand for agricultural products. In recent decades, Argentina has witnessed agricultural expansion and intensification affecting ... -
On-farm assessment of yield and quality traits in durum wheat
(Wiley, 2023-08-15)Durum wheat is key source of calories and nutrients for many regions of the world. Demand for it is predicted toincrease. Further efforts are therefore needed to develop new cultivars adapted to different future scenarios. ... -
