Anatomophysiological modifications induced by solid agricultural waste (vermicompost) in lettuce seedlings (Lactuca sativa L.)
(2013)The objective of this work was to analyze the impact of a vermicompost treatment on anatomical and physiological modifications related to assimilate partitioning and growth in lettuce seedlings. The results showed that ... -
Aquacrop model calibration in potato and its use to estimate yield variability under field conditions
(2013)AquaCrop model estimates the crop pro ductivity decrease in response to water stress, determining the biomass (B) based on water productivity (WP) and accumulated transpiration (ΣTr); and the yield (Y) is calculated ... -
Detection and characterization of a Cucumber mosaic virus isolate infecting peperina, a species native to Argentina
(2013)Minthostachys mollis (Kunth.) Griseb., “peperina”, a member of the family Lamiaceae, is an aromatic species used in modern pharmacology and medicine. It is widely distributed in the Andes, from Venezuela and Colombia to ... -
Estimation of wheat area in Córdoba, Argentina, with multitemporal NDVI data of SPOT-Vegetation
(2013)Determining the area occupied by a crop is a prerequisite for estimating agricultural production in a region, and such information at present can be generated from satellite remote sensing systems. This study uses multitemporal ... -
Exergetic model of secondary successions for plant communities in Arid Chaco (Argentina)
(2013)Ecosystems are open systems where energy fluxes produce modifications over plant communities. According to the state and transition model, plant formations are defined by changes in natural conditions and disturbs. Based ... -
Factors influencing the abundance of pests in production fields and rates of interception of Dracaena marginata imported from Costa Rica
(2013)Importation of live nursery plants, like Dracaena marginata Lamoureux (Ruscaceae), can provide a significant pathway for the entry of foliar pests from overseas into the United States. We studied the abundance of foliar ... -
Fixed-precision sequential sampling plans for estimating alfalfa caterpillar, Colias lesbia, egg density in alfalfa, Medicago sativa, fields in Córdoba, Argentina
(2013)The alfalfa caterpillar, Colias lesbia (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae), is a major pest of alfalfa, Medicago sativa L. (Fabales: Fabaceae), crops in Argentina. Its management is based mainly on chemical control of ... -
Labile and recalcitrant carbon in crop residue and soil under no-till practices in central region of Argentina
(2013)We evaluated the effects of the amount and type of C compounds (labile/recalcitrant) of crop residues on the soil organic matter (SOM) components under no-tillage practices in semiarid region of Argentina, with the aim ... -
Phosphorus availability in the central area of the Argentine Pampean region. 1: Relationship between soil parameters, adsorption processes and wheat, soybean and corn yields in different soil and management environments
(2013)Retention of phosphorus in the soil solid phase is a complex process, caused by a combination of physical and chemical mechanisms that determine pools of compounds with different degrees of solubility. The amount of P ... -
Proximate composition and seed lipid components of kabuli-type chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) from Argentina
(2013)Chickpea is an important pulse crop with a wide range of potential nutritional benefits because of its chemical composition. The purpose of the current work was to provide the chemical composition of “kabuli”-type chickpea ... -
Resilience of nitrification process in agricultural and restored soils of central Argentina
(2013)The aim of this study was to assess the resilience degree of soil nitrification process (by nitrate content, nitrification rate, and nitrifier abundance measurements), in soils of central Argentina. Soil nitrification ... -
Response of different potato cultivars to the presence of Nacobbus aberrans
(2013)Nacobbus aberrans occurs in temperate and subtropical areas of South and North America. In Argentina, the species is widely distributed although accurate knowledge of the host range is unknown for many populations. In this ... -
Simple models to estimate soybean and corn percent ground cover with vegetation indices from MODIS
(2013)Remote sensing images are a good source of crop and soil information, which can be used to derive agronomic information for field management and yield prediction. Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) and corn (Zea mays L.) ... -
Simple sequence repeats together with mismatch repair deficiency can bias mutagenic pathways in Pseudomonas aeruginosa during chronic lung infection
(2013)Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that chronically infects the airways of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and undergoes a process of genetic adaptation based on mutagenesis. We evaluated the role of ... -
Sort communication. Genotype × environment interaction analysis in two chickpea RIL populations
(2013)In order to introduce new chickpea germplasm in Argentina, two recombinant inbred line (RIL)populations F6-7 of twenty lines, each one derived from crosses between kabuli an desi types, were evaluated for yield components ... -
Sustainability/resilience of soil organic matter components in an Argentinean arid region
(2013)This short communication presents a novel approach to determining the soil sustainability of productive practices in an Argentinean arid region, using the resilience degree of soil organic matter components. The study was ...
