Addressing alternative approaches for spatial modeling of herbicide retention in soil
(2019)Glyphosate retention coefficient (Kd) is modeled as function of soil variables, from a regional sampling, using: Ordinary and Partial Least Square regression, Random Forest, Generalized Boosted regression (GB), and Bayesian ... -
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 ... -
Application of metal complexes as biomimetic catalysts on glycerol oxidation
(2020)Two biomimetic complexes were evaluated as catalysts in the H2O2 mediated oxidation of glycerol, namely a peroxidase mimetic Fe(III) protoporphyrin complex (hematin) and the superoxide-dismutase mimetic complex of Mn(III) ... -
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 ... -
Biophysical variables in fertile islands of the Argentinian Arid Chaco
(2020)Arid ecosystems usually present emergent tree species interspersed within a shrubby matrix, forming patches, known as “fertile islands” and result from the ecosystem dynamics in degraded environments where a major soil ... -
Combinations of Tagetes filifolia Lag. essential oil with chemical fungicides to control Colletotrichum truncatum and their effects on the biocontrol agent Trichoderma harzianum
(2020)Soybean [Glycine max (L.)], one of the most important crops in Argentina, is commonly infected by Colletotrichum truncatum, the causal agent of anthracnose. Tagetes filifolia essential oil (EO) is presented as a natural ... -
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 ... -
Development of a height estimation method based on the diameter at breast height of Prosopis alba Grisebach selected populations from a progeny trial in Santiago del Estero, Argentina
(2019)The main objective of this work was to develop a height estimation method of Prosopis alba based on the diameter at breast height (DBH) of populations with superior characteristics selected through a progeny trial located ... -
Dissipation of the insecticides pirimiphos-methyl and dichlorvos in stored maize (Zea mays L.) grains
(2020)The aim of this work was to analyze the dissipation dynamics of the insecticides pirimi-phos-methyl and dichlorvos in maize (Zea mays L.) grains after post-harvest spray applications. The recommendations for their use for ... -
Efecto de biocontrol y promoción del crecimiento en maní por Trichoderma harzianum y Bacillus subtilis en condiciones controladas y campo
(2020)La producción de maní en Argentina sufre severas fluctuaciones debido principalmente al daño provocado por enfermedades fúngicas; su control con productos sintéticos es ineficiente, siendo el control biológico una alternativa ... -
Effect of laccase from Trametes versicolor on the oxidative stability of edible vegetable oils
(2019)The increasing demand of natural food from consumers has limited the use of traditional methods to control the oxidation of lipids, such as synthetic antioxidants and hydrogenation. Besides, it has been reported that the ... -
Effect of wholewheat flour particle shape obtained by different milling processes on physicochemical characteristics and quality of bread
(2020)Research background. Wholewheat flour is a very good source of nutritional compoundsand functional ingredients for human diet. However, it causes negative effect on breadquality. Different milling techniques can be used ... -
Efficacy of citrulline supplementation to decrease the risk of pulmonary hypertension after congenital heart disease surgery. A local experience
(2020)Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a major cause of morbi-mortality among patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) and also a potentially severe complication after surgical repair. Oral citrulline, a precursor to NO ... -
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 ... -
Evaluation and comparison of protein composition and quality in half-sib families of opaque-2 maize (Zea mays L.) from Argentina
(2019)The objective of this study was to characterize and compare the protein composition of half-sib families of opaque-2 maize from Argentina through progeny testing. Grain hardness, protein fractions, amino acid content and ... -
Evaluation of cellular safety and the chemical composition of the peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) ethanolic extracts
(2020)Arachis hypogaea L. (Leguminosae) is distributed in tropical and subtropical areas. Peanut has high nutritional and commercial value. Scientific research showed that peanut has biological properties such as anticancer, ... -
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 ... -
Experimental and modelling approach to the legume-Rhizobium interaction: test of plant-host sanctions in co-inoculated plants with fixing and non-fixing strains
(2013)We tested the plant host sanction hypothesis using soybean plants co-inoculated with two rhizobial strains, a normally N2 fixing strain and a mutant derivative that lacks nitrogenase activity but has the same nodulation ... -
Factors influencing the abundance of pests in production fields and rates of interception of Dracaena marginata imported from Costa Rica
