Land use changes and bird diversity in subtropical forests: urban development as the underlying factor
(Springer, 2022-12-15)The Serrano Chaco forest is the least extended Gran Chaco forest type with a long his tory of human disturbances, such as ranching, urbanization, fires, an exotic tree species expansion, which have altered natural vegetation ... -
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 ... -
Unweaving the population structure and genetic diversity of Canadian shrub willow
(Springer Nature, 2022-10-14)Perennial shrub willow are increasingly being promoted in short-rotation coppice systems as biomass feedstocks, for phytoremediation applications, and for the diverse ecosystem services that can accrue. This renewed interest ... -
Improving lodgepole pine genomic evaluation using spatial correlation structure and SNP selection with single-step GBLUP
(Springer Nature, 2022-02-18)Modeling environmental spatial heterogeneity can improve the efficiency of forest tree genomic evaluation. Furthermore, genotyping costs can be lowered by reducing the number of markers needed. We investigated the impact ... -
Unveiling the increasingly altered patterns of wetland ecosystem functional diversity in the lower Delta of the Paraná River
(Wiley, 2022-07-08)Since climate, environmental and anthropic controls affect ecosystem functioning simul taneously, wetlands are permanently changing at different spatio–temporal scales. Thus, regionalizations based not only on structural, ... -
Statistically based soil climate exposure scenarios for aquatic pesticides fate modelling and exposure assessment in the Pampa Region of Argentina
(Wiley, 2022-09-05)Although pesticides are used intensively in Argentina's Pampa region, the possibility of performing an environmental risk assessment (ERA) remains limited due to the absence of readily available databases to run pesticide ... -
Multiple-trait analyses improved the accurary 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 ... -
A genome-wide association study unveils key chromosome regions involved in determining sodium accumulation in wheat under conditions of low potassium supply
(Elsevier, 2022-05-30)Improving nutrient use efficiency is an important objective in modern breeding programs. In this work, we examined potassium utilization efficiency (KUtE) and traits potentially related to it in a formerly genotyped, ... -
Allelic variation of puroindolines genes in Iranian common wheat landraces
(MDPI, 2022-08-10)Wheat is one of the most widely grown crops in the world. One of the traits that defines wheat quality is grain hardness, which is determined by puroindolines (PINA and PINB) proteins encoded with Pina-D1 and Pinb-D1 genes. ... -
Storage lipids and proteins of Euterpe edulis seeds
(Sociedad Latinoamericana de Microscopía Electrónica y Centro Regional de Investigaciones Científicas y Tecnológicas (Mendoza, Argentina), 2009)Comparative studies on fatty acid and protein composition of the endosperm and embryo of palmito (Euterpe edulis Martius) were conducted using gas-liquid chromatography and sodium dodecyl sulfate– polyacrylamide gel ... -
Precipitation is the main axis of tropical phylogenetic turnover across space and time
(BioRxiv, 2022-05-31)Early natural historians – Compte de Buffon, von Humboldt and De Candolle – established ecology and geography as two principal axes determining the distribution of groups of organisms, laying the foundations for biogeography ... -
Hierbas y especies culinarias : beneficios para la salud
(Foro de la Alimentación, la Nutrición y la Salud, 2021)Las especias y hierbas culinarias aportan sabor, aroma y color a alimentos y bebidas. Estos atributos se deben a sus constituyentes químicos, que además les confieren actividad biológica. La función principal de las especies ... -
Brazilian Flora 2020: Leveraging the power of a collaborative scientific network
(Wiley, 2022-02)The shortage of reliable primary taxonomic data limits the description of biological taxa and the understanding of biodiver sity patterns and processes, complicating biogeographical, ecological, and evolutionary studies. ... -
Protocolo de fácil aplicación en la regeneración in vitro de "peperina" (Minthostachys verticillata) (Griseb) Epling)
(Universidad de Morón, 2021-10-14)La peperina es una especie aromática y medicinal que actualmente se encuentra sobreexplotada en su medio natural. El empleo del cultivo in vitro de tejido vegetal es una herramienta utilizada por varias disciplinas y en ... -
Integrating genomic information and productivity and climate-adaptability traits into a regional white spruce breeding program
(Plos ONE, 2022-03)Tree improvement programs often focus on improving productivity-related traits; however, under present climate change scenarios, climate change-related (adaptive) traits should also be incorporated into such programs. ... -
Preliminary report of the toxicity of Lippia junelliana (Lamiales: Verbenaceae) and Elionorus muticus (Poales: Poaceae) on Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
(Sociedad Entomológica Argentina, 2022-01)Several phytochemicals, such as extracts and essential oils, are among the ecological alternatives that have been studied for the control of pathogens that affect humans, animals, and plants. Essential oils are aromatic ... -
