Remotely Sensed Spatiotemporal Variation in Crude Protein of Shortgrass Steppe Forage by Irisarri, Jorge Gonzalo Nicolás, Durante, Martin, Derner, Justin D., Oesterheld, Martin, Augustine, David J.

“…In a set of shortgrass steppe paddocks with contrasting botanical composition, we (1) modeled the spatiotemporal variation in field estimates of CP content against seven spectral MODIS bands, and (2) used the model to assess the risk of reaching the 8% CP content threshold during the grazing season for paddocks with light, moderate, or heavy grazing intensities for the last 22 years (2000–2021). …”

Modelling woody carbon dynamics in tropical dry forests: A case study of the Dry Chaco region by Filip, Iván Daniel, Peri, Pablo Luis, Fernandez, Pedro David, Loto, Dante, Kees, Sebastian Miguel, Banegas, Natalia Romina, Nasca, Jose Andres, Sacido, Mónica, Faverin, Claudia, Vibart, Ronaldo

“…This is particularly meaningful for the Argentinean Dry Chaco, a deforestation frontier where silvopastoral systems could expand on more than 18 million hectares. Here, we evaluate long term forest and woody carbon dynamics of two silvopastoral systems: Forest management integrated with livestock (herein MBGI) and traditional silvopastoral (TSP), and compared these with undisturbed primary native forests. …”

Multiclass Compatible Sample Preparation for UHPLC–MS/MS Determination of Aflatoxin M1 in Raw Milk by Michlig, Nicolás, Repetti, María Rosa, Chiericatti, Carolina, García, Silvia R., Gaggiotti, Monica Del Carmen, Basílico, Juan Carlos, Beldoménico, Horacio Ramón

“…Regarding AFM1, satisfactory linearity was achieved and appropriate sensitivity was maintained, using matrix-matched calibration to compensate for the heavy ion suppression. The accuracy and precision, which were determined through recovery studies, were 70–95 %, with the relative standard deviation below 15 % in all of the cases. …”

A morphological and phylogenetic analysis of Ornithodoros marinkellei (Acari: Argasidae), with additional notes on habitat and host usage by Venzal, José Manuel, Nava, Santiago, Hernández, Ligia V., Miranda, Jorge, Marcili, Arlei, Labruna, Marcelo B.

“…Because some morphometric differences were observed between O. marinkellei larvae from Colombia and Brazil, it was proposed that further investigations were needed to assess whether the differences could be attributed to intra- or inter-specific polymorphism. Herein, we collected O. marinkellei specimens in the type locality of Colombia, in Brazil, and in a new locality in Nicaragua, expanding the distribution of the species to Nicaragua. …”

Biological control of a non-honeydew producer mediated by a distinct hierarchy of honeydew quality by Tena, Alejandro, Llácer, Elena, Urbaneja, Alberto

“…However, a high content of energy reserves in honeydew-fed parasitoids does not imply an increase of their fitness because honeydew may be relatively unsuitable. Herein, we studied the feeding behavior and fitness (longevity and fecundity) of a parasitoid, Aphytis melinus DeBach (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae), which host does not produce honeydew, when it had access to honeydew excreted by five common hemipterans in citrus: Aleurothrixus floccosus (Maskell) (Aleyrodidae), Aphis spiraecola Patch (Aphididae), Coccus hesperidum L. …”
