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 ... -
Incomplete milkings in automatic milking systems
(2019)Automatic milking systems (AMS) rely on voluntary and distributed attendance of cows to the dairy facility throughout lactation. This generates variation in milking intervals (MI), defined as the period of time that elapses ... -
Introgression of peanut smut resistance from landraces to elite peanut cultivars (Arachis hypogaea L.)
(2019)Smut disease caused by the fungal pathogen Thecaphora frezii Carranza & Lindquist is threatening the peanut production in Argentina. Fungicides commonly used in the peanut crop have shown little or no effect controlling ... -
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 ... -
Mass appraisal of land values using random forest with spatial restriction
(2020)The advancement of computational software and machine learning practice has facilitated enhanced uptake of mass appraisal methodologies for price modelling and prediction of land value. Since the characteristics of properties ... -
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 ... -
Preliminary studies of elemental spatial redistribution in breast tumors
(2013)Synchrotron radiation combined with capillary optics has been used as an optimal x-ray source for microanalysis. It can be used to excite x-ray fluorescence and this approach leads to very low detection limits on micrometric ... -
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 ... -
Response of yield and oil fatty acid composition to the temperature and intercepted solar radiation of traditional and high oleic canola sown in Argentine : New findings on the behaviour of spring canola
(2013)Canola represents a promising alternative to diversify crop production in Argentina. Previous work showed that fatty acid composition and yield of winter traditional canola are affected by environmental conditions during ... -
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 ... -
Site index for Prosopis alba plantations in the semi-arid chaco through mixed models
(2019)The classification of sites through curves of Site Index allows to predict the yield of the planted forests at a certain age of the stand and to plan cultural treatments. The goal of this research was to compare linear and ... -
Site-specific data on herbicide soil retention and ancillary environmental variables
(2019)This article presents original geospatial data on soil adsorption coefficient (Kd) for two widely used herbicides in agriculture, glyphosate and atrazine. Besides Kds, the dataset includes site-specific soil data: pH, total ... -
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 ... -
Two step procedure to model site specific herbicide soil persistence
(2020)Soil herbicide persistence is the length of time the herbicide molecule remains active in soil and it is crucial to describe risks of diffuse contamination in agriculture. Persistence is characterized by ?half-life?, which ... -
Utilization of kañawa (chenopodium pallidicaule aellen) flour in pasta making
(2019)Kañawa (Chenopodium pallidicaule Aellen) is an Andean crop harvested in Bolivia and Perú. Because of the characteristics and properties of kañawa seed, its flour can be used to replace partially wheat flour in pasta to ... -
Variability of stone pine (Pinus pinea L.) fruit traits impacting pine nut yield
(2019)Key message: Cone to pine nut yield (PY), an important commercial feature of stone pine cropping, was higher in Chile than in main producer countries. PY is highly variable along years and depends on pine nut number inside ...
