MADERA: a standardized pan-amazonian dataset for tropical timber species
We compiled and presented a dataset for all timber species reported in the Amazon region from all nine South American Amazonian countries. This was based on official information from every country, as well as from two ... -
Manglares de las Américas
El presente monográfico “Manglares de las Américas” cuenta con siete artículos provenientes de cuatro países diferentes como son Colombia (Ruíz-Roldán et al. 2023; Ardilla y Sandoval 2022), Cuba (Muñoz et al. 2023), Ecuador ... -
Mechanisms involved in drought stress tolerance triggered by rhizobia strains in wheat
Rhizobium spp. is a well-known microbial plant biostimulant in non-legume crops, but little is known about the mechanisms by which rhizobia enhance crop productivity under drought stress. This work analyzed the mechanisms ... -
Medicago sativa and Medicago truncatula show contrasting root metabolic responses to drought
Drought is an environmental stressor that affects crop yield worldwide. Understandingplant physiological responses to stress conditions is needed to secure food in futureclimate conditions. In this study, we applied a ... -
Metschnikowia pulcherrima as an efficient biocontrol agent of Botrytis cinerea infection in apples: unraveling protection mechanisms through yeast proteomics
The results obtained in this study show that the Mp-30 strain of Metschnikowia pulcherrima is able to completely prevent Botrytis cinerea infection in apples, which is a major postharvest disease of fruits throughout the ... -
Microorganisms as biocontrol agents against bacterial citrus diseases
Citrus represents one of the most widely grown crops on the planet, extensively cultivated for both the fresh fruit and juice markets. The productivity of citrus orchards can be seriously affected by highly aggressive ... -
The moderate oxidative stress induced by glyphosate is not detected in Amaranthus palmeri plants overexpressing EPSPS
The present study aimed to determine whether glyphosate-induced oxidative stress is directly related to the action mechanism of this herbicide (5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase or EPSPS inhibition) and analyse ... -
ModulaTransprot: explorando el uso de la nutrición amoniacal para reducir contenidos de nitrato en hortalizas de hoja en sistemas de cultivo sin suelo
Encontrar alternativas a través del diseño de productos y sistemas sostenibles que aumenten la eficiencia en el uso del nitrógeno y disminuya los contenidos de nitratos en tejidos comestibles es una necesidad científica, ... -
Monitoring rainfed alfalfa growth in semiarid agrosystems using Sentinel-2 imagery
The aim of this study was to assess the utility of Sentinel-2 images in the monitoring of the fractional vegetation cover (FVC) of rainfed alfalfa in semiarid areas such as that of Bardenas Reales in Spain. FVC was sampled ... -
Multifunctional properties of a bacillus thuringiensis strain (BST-122): beyond the parasporal crystal
Chemical products still represent the most common form of controlling crop pests and diseases. However, their extensive use has led to the selection of resistances. This makes the finding of new solutions paramount to ... -
Municipal solid waste management in a decentralized composting scenario: assessment of the process reproducibility and quality of the obtained composts
Over the last several years, the models for organic waste management have changed to implement circular economy in the productive cycle. In this context, new scenarios have emerged, where the management of different organic ... -
New in vivo approach to broaden the thioredoxin family interactome in chloroplasts
Post-translational redox modifications provide an important mechanism for the control of major cellular processes. Thioredoxins (Trxs), which are key actors in this regulatory mechanism, are ubiquitous proteins that catalyse ... -
A new oxidative pathway of nitric oxide production from oximes in plants
(Cell Press, 2024) Artículo / ArtikuluaNitric oxide (NO) is an essential reactive oxygen species and a signal molecule in plants. Although several studies have proposed the occurrence of oxidative NO production, only reductive routes for NO production, such ... -
A novel biosensor to monitor proline in pea root exudates and nodules under osmotic stress and recovery
Background and aims: Plant and bacteria are able to synthesise proline, which acts as a compound to counteract the negative effects of osmotic stresses. Most methodologies rely on the extraction of compounds using destructive ... -
A novel use of Nesidiocoris tenuis (Reuter) (Hemiptera: Miridae) as inoculative agent of baculoviruses
Background: Alphabaculoviruses are Lepidoptera-specific virulent pathogens that infect numerous pests, including the Spodoptera complex. Due to their low environmental persistence, the traditional use of Alphabaculoviruses ... -
NTRC and thioredoxin f overexpression differentially induces starch accumulation in tobacco leaves
Thioredoxin (Trx) f and NADPH-dependent Trx reductase C (NTRC) have both been proposed as major redox regulators of starch metabolism in chloroplasts. However, little is known regarding the specific role of each protein ... -
Nucleopolyhedrovirus coocclusion technology: a new concept in the development of biological insecticides
Nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPV, Baculoviridae) that infect lepidopteran pests have an established record as safe and effective biological insecticides. Here, we describe a new approach for the development of NPV-based ... -
Overexpression of thioredoxin m in chloroplasts alters carbon and nitrogen partitioning in tobacco
In plants, there is a complex interaction between carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) metabolism, and its coordination is fundamental for plant growth and development. Here, we studied the influence of thioredoxin (Trx) m on C and ... -
Overview of the use of biochar from main cereals to stimulate plant growth
The total global food demand is expected to increase up to 50% between 2010 and 2050; hence, there is a clear need to increase plant productivity with little or no damage to the environment. In this respect, biochar is a ... -
The Pbo cluster from Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola NPS3121 is thermoregulated and required for phaseolotoxin biosynthesis
The bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola NPS3121 synthe-sizes phaseolotoxin in a thermoregulated way, with optimum production at 18 °C. Gene PSPPH_4550 was previously shown to be ...
