Partitioning the effects of habitat loss hunting and climate change on the endangered Chacoan peccary
(Wiley, 2023-04-04)Aim: Land-use change and overexploitation are major threats to biodiversity, and cli mate change will exert additional pressure in the 21st century. Although there are strong interactions between these threats, our ... -
Behavioral and physiological changes in the passerine Agelaioides badius following the ingestion of coated seeds with imidacloprid in a 30-day experiment
(Elsevier, 2023-12)The wide use of neonicotinoid seed treatment represents a hazard for farmland birds that feed on treated seeds. This study aimed to characterize the long-term effects of the neonicotinoid imidacloprid (IMI) in the passerine ... -
Variation in seed dormancy of Chaco seasonally dry forest species: Effects of seed traits and population environmental conditions
(MDPI, 2023-04-27)The persistence of subtropical seasonally dry forests urgently requires the implementation of ex situ conservation and restoration programs. We studied variation in seed traits and dormancy of six native species growing ... -
How does post-flowering sources/sink manipulation affect grain weight and commercial quality in Argentinean bread wheat genotypes with different baking aptitude?
(Elsevier, 2023-06-29)Context: Wheat is a crop of vital importance for food security. In contrast to the accumulated knowledge for yield determination, the effect of variations in the source/sink (S/S) ratio on grain quality, and its interaction ... -
Breeding value predictive accuracy for scarcely recorded traits in a Eucalyptus grandis breeding population using genomic selection and data on predictor traits
(Springer, 2023-07-18)Genomic selection methods are particularly useful for traits that are difcult or expensive to measure. We investigated the impact of using predictor growth traits and/or genomic information to increase the breeding value ... -
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. ... -
Impact of different on-farm management practices on breat wheat quality: a case study in the Yaqui Valley
(Wiley, 2023-08-15)Continuous development of new wheat varieties is necessary to satisfy the demands of farmers, industry, and consumers. The evaluation of candidate genotypes for commercial release under different on-farm conditions is a ... -
Behavioral and physiological response of the passerine bird agelaioides badius to seeds coated with imidacloprid.
(Springer, 2023-09-01)Neonicotinoids are globally used insecticides, and there are increasing evidence on their negative efects on birds. This study is aimed at characterizing the behavioral and physiological efects of the neonicotinoid ... -
Wheat plant height locus RHT25 encodes a PLATZ transcription factor that interacts with DELLA (RHT1)
(National Academy of Sciences, 2023-05-01)Plant height is an important agronomic trait with a significant impact on grain yield, as demonstrated by the positive effect of the REDUCED HEIGHT (RHT) dwarfing alleles (Rht1b) on lodging and harvest index in the “Green ... -
On-farm impact on bread wheat quality under different management practices: a case study in the Yaqui Valley
(Wiley, 2023-03-24)Continuous development of new wheat varieties is necessary to satisfy the demands of farmers, industry, and consumers. The evaluation of candidate genotypes for commercial release under different on-farm conditions is a ... -
Water management infrastructure alters plant species composition, functional diversity and soil condition in a livestock impaired mosaic of wetlands
(Wiley, 2022-11-24)Wetlands are fundamental in conserving biodiversity, regulating pollution, and as natural reservoirs of water, among several other contributions to people. Wetlands not only harbor for a great number of animal species, but ... -
Decoupling of height growth and drought or pest resistance tradeoffs is revealed through multiple commongarden experiments of lodgepole pine
(Oxford University Press, 2023-03)The environment could alter growth and resistance tradeoffs in plants by affecting the ratio of resource allocation to various competing traits. Yet, how and why functional tradeoffs change over time and space is poorly ... -
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 ... -
Biomonitoring of alterations in fish that inhabit anthropic aquatic environments in a basin from semi-arid regions
(MDPI, 2023-01-12)Industrial, agricultural, and urban areas can be sources of pollution and a cause of habitat fragmentation. The Conlara River located in the northeast of San Luis Province suffers different environmental pressures along ... -
