Patterns of resource distribution among conspecific larvae in two fruit fly species : Anastrepha fraterculus and Ceratitis capitata (diptera: tephritidae) by Liendo, Marí­a Clara, Devescovi, Francisco, Boca, Rosa Teresa, Cladera, Jorge Luis, Vera, María Teresa, Segura, Diego Fernando

“…Because larvae are incapable of leaving the fruit in search of non-infested fruit, they are forced to share nutritional resources and eventually compete with other larvae for these. 2 In the present study, we investigated the effect of intraspecific competition on the development of A. fraterculus and C. capitata larvae, and compared the strategies adopted by these species. 3 To this end, newly-hatched larvae were transferred into a container with a fixed amount of larval diet at increasing larval densities and several developmental parameters were measured. 4 The two species showed similarities and differences in the way in which they responded to an increasing density. …”

Xylanase production by cellulomonas phragmiteti using lignocellulosic waste materials by Buda, Kata, Fekete, Tünde, Ontañon, Ornella Mailen, Campos, Eleonora, Fehér, Csaba

“…Cell-free culture supernatants with xylanolytic activity were produced in all the conditions evaluated, but the highest xylanase activity (15.3 U/mL) was achieved in Luria–Bertani (LB) medium containing 1% waste paper. Under these conditions, almost negligible β-glucosidase, cellobiohydrolase, β-xylosidase, and α-arabinofuranosidase activity was detected. …”

How leaf rust disease and its control with fungicides affect dough properties, gluten quality and loaf volume under different N rates in wheat by Fleitas, María Constanza, Schierenbeck, Matías, Gerard, Guillermo Sebastián, Dietz, Juan Ignacio, Golik, Silvina Inés, Campos, Pablo Eduardo, Simón, María Rosa

“…Gluten tenacity (AlvP) was more affected than gluten extensibility (AlvL) resulting in doughs with lower AlvP/L ratio, minor gluten strength and inferior loaf volume. The treatment containing fluxapyroxad showed better levels of disease control and it also evidenced additional beneficial effects in most of the evaluated parameters compared to the treatment without this active ingredient.…”

Comparison of transient and stable expression of foot-and-mouth disease virus capsid proteins in mammalian cells by Mignaqui, Ana Clara, Ruiz, Vanesa, Wigdorovitz, Andres

“…However, the use of recombinant empty capsids as a subunit vaccine has been reported to be a promising candidate because it avoids the use of virus in the vaccine production. A plasmid containing the capsid precursor P12A and protease 3C sequences of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) was constructed and used to compare transient and stable expression in mammalian cells. …”
