Decoupling of height growth and drought or pest resistance tradeoffs is revealed through multiple commongarden experiments of lodgepole pine by Liu, Yang, Erbilgin, Nadir, Cappa, Eduardo Pablo, Chen, Charles, Ratcliffe, Blaise, Wei, Xiaojing, Klutsch, Jennifer G., Ullah, Aziz, Sebastian Azcona, Jaime, Thomas, Barb R., El-Kassaby, Yousry A.

“…Further, we found that the study populations exhibiting functional tradeoffs or synergies to various degrees in test sites were driven by non-adaptive evolutionary processes rather than adaptive evolution or plasticity. Finally, we found positive genetic relationships between height and drought or pest resistance metrics and probed five loci showing potential genetic tradeoffs between northernmost and the other populations. …”

Atmospheric dust dynamics in southern South America: A 14-year modern dust record in the loessic Pampean region by Cosentino, Nicolas Juan, Gaiero, Diego Marcelo, Torre, Gabriela, Pasquini, Andrea Ines, Coppo, Renata, Arce, Juan Mateo, Velez, Georgina

“…El Niño Southern Oscillation probably plays a role in controlling interannual horizontal dust flux periodicities. Finally, preliminary comparisons between modern vertical dust fluxes and loess accumulation rates point to the Pampas as a more powerful dust sink during the last deglaciation and Antarctic Cold Reversal (18–12.5 ka).…”

Effect of stand density and pruning on growth of ponderosa pines in NW Patagonia, Argentina by Gyenge, Javier Enrique, Fernandez, Marí­a Elena, Schlichter, Tomas Miguel

“…Pruning reduced diameter growth in both SPS treatments, at least until 2 years after pruning, with a more marked effect in the pruning treatment with the higher amount of extracted foliage. Carbon fixation reduction in addition to changes in carbon allocation within different plant parts after pruning could be the responsible of observed stem growth reductions. …”

Baculovirus vectors induce the production of interferons in swine : their potential in the development of antiviral strategies by Molina, Guido Nicolas, Amalfi, Sabrina, Otero, Ignacio, Taboga, Oscar Alberto, Molinari, Maria Paula

“…Moreover, the inoculation of AcMNPV in piglets led to the production of type I and II IFNs in sera from inoculated animals and antiviral activities against vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) and FMDV measured by in vitro assays. Finally, it was demonstrated that the pseudotyping of AcMNPV with VSV-G protein, but not the enrichment of the AcMNPV genome with specific immunostimulatory CpG motifs for the porcine TLR9, improved the ability to induce IFN-α production in PBMCs in vitro. …”

Selection of a suitable probability model for the analysis of biochemical data from soil by Rossi, Maria Sol, Mon, Rodolfo, Irurtia, Carlos Bernardino

“…These data lead to the idea that the interrelation of biochemical variables from soil could be used as an accessor of the degree of current compaction of soil. Finally the effect of mechanical decompaction of soil on biochemical variables for 3 years under no-tillage as a management system was tested.…”

Agroecosystem’s contributions to people: how ranchers and specialists perceive threatened Espinal forests used for cattle-grazing by Rojido, Ignacio Jose, Anderson, Christopher B., Tagliaferro, Marina Beatriz, Canavelli, Sonia Beatriz

“…Both groups valued regulating and non-material NCP above material contributions and considered that forests are very important for physical and mental health. Finally, only rancher perceptions varied with tested variables, depending on degradation levels of forests with which they have the most contact and/or carry out their activities, the number of uses and recreational activities they carry out in forests, their knowledge of forests, and their place of residence. …”

Cocina a leña de eficiencia mejorada con calentador de agua para uso doméstico by Sosa, Carlos Sebastián, Karol, Ana, Rodriguez Ibañez, Griselda Yanina, Aguilera, María Paula

“…El artefacto ha sido diseñado y desarrollado teniendo en cuenta las condiciones materiales, culturales, y socio-ambientales particulares de la comunidad de Mogna, por lo que antes de ser implementado en otras comunidades, recomendamos hacer un análisis de las condiciones particulares de las mismas, para determinar su pertinencia o necesidad de adaptaciones y/o cambios que permitan dar respuesta a las necesidades concretas y/o expectativas de los usuarios finales de la tecnología. En especial, recomendamos no construir el artefacto descripto en la presente cartilla en caso que los destinatarios de la tecnología no cuenten con el servicio de distribución permanente de agua por red, ya que éste está preparado para funcionar correctamente sólo en estas condiciones. …”

On the spatio-temporal coherence of extreme precipitation indices in subtropical Argentina by Ricetti, Lorenzo, Hurtado, Santiago Ignacio, Agosta Scarel, Eduardo A.

“…The Accumulated index, particularly using the 95th percentile as a threshold, emerged as the most representative, effectively synthesizing extreme precipitation characteristics in STAr. Finally, the necessity of validating the spatio-temporal internal coherence of clustering algorithms outputs is emphasized to avoid mischaracterization and ensure robust regionalization results.…”

Enzymes for production of whey protein hydrolysates and other value‑added products by Irazoqui, Jose Matias, Santiago, Gonzalo Manuel, Mainez, María Esperanza, Amadio, Ariel, Eberhardt, María Florencia

“…Moreover, we discuss metagenomics as a tool to identify novel proteolytic enzymes, from both cultivable and uncultivable microorganisms, which are expected to have new interesting activities. Finally enzymes for the transformation of whey sugar are reviewed. …”

Differential lipidome remodeling during postharvest of peach varieties with different susceptibility to chilling injury by Bustamante, Claudia Anabel, Brotman, Yavid, Monti, Laura L., Gabilondo, Julieta, Budde, Claudio Olaf, Lara, María Valeria, Fernie, Alisdair R., Drincovich, María Fabiana

“…When comparing susceptible and resistant varieties, the relative abundance of certain species of the lipid classes phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and digalactosyldiacylglycerol correlated with the tolerance to CI, reflecting the importance of the plasma membrane in the development of CI symptoms and allowing the identification of possible lipid markers for chilling resistance. Finally, transcriptional analysis of genes involved in galactolipid metabolism revealed candidate genes responsible for the observed changes after cold exposure. …”
