An assessment of the genetic diversity of Cedrela balansae C. DC. (Meliaceae) in Northwestern Argentina by means of combined use of SSR and AFLP molecular markers
(2013-04)Cedrela balansae C.DC. is a native tree species in Argentina, severely exploited for its timber features. We performed a molecular analysis to understand the genetic diversity and its distribution in eight remaining ... -
Biomarker and hematological fieldwork with amphibians: is it necessary to sample all night?
(Springer, 2020-03)In the context of the global amphibian crisis, biomonitoring constitutes a valuable assessment tool to provide critical up to date information on the status and health of amphibians worldwide. The aim of the current study ... -
Carotenoids gene markers for sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas L. Lam): applications in genetic mapping, diversity evaluation and cross‑species transference
(Springer, 2014-04)Carotenoids play essential biological roles in plants, and genes involved in the carotenoid biosynthesis pathway are evolutionarily conserved. Orange sweetpotato is an important source of β-carotene, a precursor of vitamin ... -
Characterization of functional SSR markers in Prosopis alba and their transferability across Prosopis species
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (España), 2015)Aim of study: The aim of the study was to characterize functional microsatellite markers in Prosopis alba and examine the transferability to species from the Prosopis genus. Area of the study: samples were obtained from ... -
Crop species transferability of G-SSR and EST-SSR markers to Neltuma affinis spreng
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (España), 2024-03-18)Aim of study: To examine the transferability of G-SSR (genomic simple sequence repeats) and EST-SSR (expressed sequence tag simple sequence repeats) markers developed for several Neltuma species to N. affinis, a species ... -
De novo assembly and characterization of leaf transcriptome for the development of functional molecular markers of the extremophile multipurpose tree species Prosopis alba
(2013-10)Background: Prosopis alba (Fabaceae) is an important native tree adapted to arid and semiarid regions of north-western Argentina which is of great value as multipurpose species. Despite its importance, the genomic resources ... -
De novo transcriptome sequencing and SSR markers development for Cedrela balansae C.DC., a native tree species of northwest Argentina
(Plos One, 2018-12)The endangered Cedrela balansae C.DC. (Meliaceae) is a high-value timber species with great potential for forest plantations that inhabits the tropical forests in Northwestern Argentina.Research on this species is scarce ... -
Development of anthocyanin markers: gene mapping, genomic analysis and genetic diversity studies in Ipomoea species
(Academia Brasileira de Ciencias, 2022)The anthocyanins are pigments responsible for a wide range of colours in plants, from blue, red and purple, play essential biological roles as well as their genes are evolutionarily conserved. Purple sweet potatoes have ... -
Genetic variability of Araucaria angustifolia in the Argentinean Parana Forest and implications for management and conservation
(2018-08)The main forces shaping genetic variability of woody species in fragmented forest are the geographical distribution and demographic history of populations. We conducted molecular analyses to evaluate how these factors have ... -
Genomic-based multiple-trait evaluation in Eucalyptus grandis using dominant DArT markers
(2018-06)We investigated the impact of combining the pedigree- and genomic-based relationship matrices in a multiple-trait individual-tree mixed model (a.k.a., multiple-trait combined approach) on the estimates of heritability and ... -
Identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms [SNPs] at candidate genes involved in abiotic stress in two Prosopis species and hybrids
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (España), 2014)Aim of the study: Identify and compare SNPs on candidate genes related to abiotic stress in Prosopis chilensis, Prosopis flexuosa and interspecific hybrids Area of the study: Chaco árido, Argentina. Material and Methods: ... -
Mapping QTL for resistance to new virulent races of wheat stripe rust from two Argentinean wheat cultivars
(Crop Science Society of America, 2018)During the last two decades, new virulent and aggressive races of Puccinia striiformis Westend. f. sp. tritici (Pst) have spread worldwide, causing devastating epidemics and prompting the search for new sources of resistance ... -
Optimizing a regional white spruce tree improvement program: SNP genotyping for enhanced breeding values, genetic diversity assessment, and estimation of pollen contamination
(MDPI, 2023-11-01)The utilization of genotyping has gained significant popularity in tree improvement programs, aiding in enhancing the precision of breeding values, removing pedigree errors, the assessment of genetic diversity, and evaluating ... -
SSRs, SNPs and DArTs comparison on estimation of relatedness and genetic parameters’ precision from a small half-sib sample population of eucalyptus grandis
(2016)Simple sequence repeats (SSR) are the most widely used molecular markers for relatedness inference due to their multi-allelic nature and high informativeness. However, there is a growing trend toward using high-throughput ...
