Soil erosion rates and nutrient loss in rangelands of Southern Patagonia by Peri, Pablo Luis, Lasagno, Romina Gisele, Chartier, Marcelo Pablo, Roig Junent, Fidel Alejandro, Rosas, Yamina Micaela, Martinez Pastur, Guillermo José

“…We highlight that soil protection is critical to sustain the capacity of rangeland ecosystems to supply provisioning (lamb and cattle meat, sheep wool) supporting (nutrient cycling, biodiversity, habitat) and regulating (carbon fixation, water flow regulation) ecosystem services for human wellbeing. We used a dendrogeomorphological method to determine soil erosion rates against datable exposed roots. …”

Non-monotonic vegetation activity trends in the Lower Delta of the Paraná River: masking evidence of wetland degradation? by Aquino, Diego Sebastián, Sica, Yanina Vanesa, Quintana, Rubén Darío, Gavier Pizarro, Gregorio Ignacio

“…Our results provide evidence that even though regional hydro-climatic patterns remain as main drivers of wetland vegetation dynamics, human influence and its negative effects increase in the context of adverse hydro-climatic scenarios. …”

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O22:H8 isolated from cattle reduces E. coli O157:H7 adherence in vitro and in vivo by Martorelli, Luisina, Albanese, Adriana Andrea, Vilte, Daniel Alejandro, Cantet, Rodolfo Juan Carlos, Bentancor, Adriana Beatriz, Zolezzi, Gisela, Chinen, Isabel, Ibarra, Cristina E., Rivas, Marta, Mercado, Elsa Cristina, Cataldi, Angel Adrian

“…Conclusions: These results suggest that E. coli O22:H8, a serotype rarely associated with human illness, might compete with O157:H7 at the bovine recto-anal junction, making non-O157 carrying-calves less susceptible to O157:H7 colonization and shedding of the bacteria to the environment.…”

Immune response in calves vaccinated with type three secretion system antigens and shiga toxin 2B subunit of Escherichia coli O157:H7 by Martorelli, Luisina, Garbaccio, Sergio Gabriel, Vilte, Daniel Alejandro, Albanese, Adriana Andrea, Mejías, María Pilar, Palermo, Marina Sandra, Mercado, Elsa Cristina, Ibarra, Cristina E., Cataldi, Angel Adrian

“…Ruminants are the primary reservoir of Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O157:H7 and the main source of infection for humans. The aim of this study was to assess the immunogenic properties of a candidate vaccine consisting on the recombinant proteins of E. coli O157:H7 IntiminC280, the carboxy-terminal fraction of Intimin γ, EspB and the fusion protein between the B subunit of Stx2 and Brucella Lumazine Synthase (BLS)(BLS-Stx2B), in Holstein Fresian calves.To accomplish this goal we vaccinated calves with two doses of different vaccine formulations: 2 antigens (IntiminC280, EspB), 3 antigens (IntiminC280, EspB, BLS-Stx2B), BLS-Stx2B alone and a control non-vaccinated group. …”

Genotypic Characterization of Non-O157 Shiga Toxin–Producing Escherichia coli in Beef Abattoirs of Argentina by Masana, Marcelo Oscar, D’Astek, Beatriz A., Palladino, Pablo Martin, Galli, Lucia, Del Castillo, Lourdes, Carbonari, Claudia Carolina, Leotta, Gerardo A., Vilacoba, E., Irino, K., Rivas, Marta

“…In this survey, 4.8% (39 of 811) of the bovine carcasses appeared to be contaminated with nonO157 STEC strains potentially capable of producing sporadic human disease, and a lower proportion (0.25%) with strains able to produce outbreaks of severe disease.…”

Evaluating the impacts and benefits of sheldgeese on crop yields in the Pampas region of Argentina: a contribution for mitigating the conflicts with agriculture by Gorosabel, Antonella, Pedrana, Julieta, Bernad, Lucía, Caballero, Veronica Jorgelina, Muñoz, Sebastián Darío, Maceira, Nestor Oscar

“…However, these birds can also provide a variety of benefits that humanity can obtain from nature. There are three migratory and endemic sheldgeese (Ruddy-headed Goose Chloephaga rubidiceps, Ashy-headed Goose Chloephaga poliocephala and Upland Goose Chloephaga picta) which are species of conservation concern in Argentina. …”

A first record of bulk atmospheric deposition patterns of major ions in southern South America by Carnelos, D.A., Portela, Silvina Isabel, Jobbagy Gampel, Esteban Gabriel, Jackson, R.B., Di Bella, Carlos Marcelo, Panario, D., Fagúndez, C., Piñeiro Guerra, J.M., Grion, L., Piñeiro, G.

“…Spatial changes in the sea-salt component of atmospheric deposition were primarily associated with proximity to the sea—as observed in other regions of the world—whereas non-sea-salt components of atmospheric deposition of terrestrial origin were primarily associated with the size of the human population surrounding collection sites. Atmospheric deposition showed a strong interannual variability (CV 50%) mainly associated with variations in the non-sea salt components of terrestrial origin and were within observed values for other relatively unpolluted sites of South America and globally. …”

Optimized adenoviral vector that enhances the assembly of FMDV O1 virus-like particles in situ increases its potential as vaccine for serotype O viruses by Ziraldo, Micaela, Bidart, Juan Esteban, Prato, Cecilia A., Tribulatti, María Virginia, Zamorano, Patricia Ines, Mattion, Nora Marta, D’Antuono, Alejandra

“…Although replication-defective human adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) vectors that express in situ the capsid-encoding region of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) have been proven to be effective as vaccines in relevant species for several viral strains, the same result was not consistently achieved for the O1/Campos/Brazil/58 strain. …”

Resilience Management at the Landscape Level: An Approach to Tackling Social Ecological Vulnerability of Agroforestry Systems. by Cavallero, Laura, Easdale, Marcos Horacio, Carranza, Carlos, Ledesma, Marcela, Peri, Pablo Luis, Lopez, Dardo Ruben

“…It has been estimated that more than half of the earth’s natural ecosystems have been modified by anthropogenic activities for the provision of ecosystem goods (Millennium Ecosystem Assessment 2005). Both human well-being and natural ecosystems are directly affected by social activities and/or conditions, as well as by stochastic climatic events (Butler and Oluoch-Kosura 2006; Fremier et al. 2013). …”
