Asociación simbiótica de dos cepas de Azospirillum con cultivares de Digitaria eriantha: respuestas al estrés abiótico
(2017)
Digitaria eriantha Steudel es una especie forrajera adaptada a áreas de pastoreo, pero con sensibilidad a bajas temperaturas, estrés hídrico y salinidad. Las poblaciones bacterianas promotoras de crecimiento vegetal ...
Assessment of lead tolerance on Glycine max (L.) Merr. at early growth stages
(Springer Heidelberg, 2021-05)
Lead (Pb) contamination of agricultural soils, and subsequently of crops, has been widely reported. Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) has been indicated as a plant that accumulates Pb, even in soils that do not exceed the ...
An update on nitric oxide production and role under phosphorus scarcity in plants
(Frontiers Media, 2020-04-15)
Phosphate (P) is characterized by its low availability and restricted mobility in soils, and also by a high redistribution capacity inside plants. In order to maintain P homeostasis in nutrient restricted conditions, plants ...
GlyPh: a low-cost platform for phenotyping plant growth and water use
(Csiro Publishing, 2012-09)
Breeding drought-tolerant crop varieties with higher water use efficiency could help maintain food supply to a growing population and save valuable water resources. Fast and accurate phenotyping is currently a bottleneck ...
The homologous HD-Zip i transcription factors HaHB1 and AtHB13 confer cold tolerance via the induction of pathogenesis-related and glucanase proteins
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2012-01)
Plants deal with cold temperatures via different signal transduction pathways. The HD-Zip I homologous transcription factors HaHB1 from sunflower and AtHB13 from Arabidopsis were identified as playing a key role in such ...
The era of nitric oxide in plant biology: Twenty years tying up loose ends
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2019-04-01)
Nitric oxide (NO) is an essential signal molecule to maintain cellular homeostasis in uni and pluricellular organisms. Conceptually, NO intervenes as much in sustaining basal metabolic processes, as in firing cellular ...
Breeding strategies in Melilotus albus Desr., a salt-tolerant forage legume
(Springer, 2018-02)
Melilotus albus Desr. is recognized as one of the species with greatest potential as a forage source for ruminants in saline rangelands. The objectives of the current research were threefold: (1) to estimate heritability ...

Lead (Pb) contamination of agricultural soils, and subsequently of crops, has been widely reported. Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) has been indicated as a plant that accumulates Pb, even in soils that do not exceed the ...
Environmental context of endophyte symbioses: Interacting effects of water stress and insect herbivory
(University of Chicago Press, 2011-05)
Symbiotic associations between grasses and fungal endophytes are generally regarded as mutualistic, yet benefits to host plants may vary with environmental context. Previous studies have emphasized how endophytes influence ...
Individual and combined effects of drought and heat on antioxidant parameters and growth performance in Buffel grass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) genotypes
(Elsevier Science, 2018-11)
Drought and heat stress are two critical threats to crop growth and sustainable agriculture worldwide. In the last decade, many studies focused on the response of crops to a single stress, nevertheless studying the response ...
