Effects of the source:sink ratio on the phenotypic plasticity of stem water potential in olive (Olea europaea L.)
(Society for Experimental Biology, 2011-06)
The aims of this work were to quantify (i) the effect of the source:sink ratio on stem water potential (SWP) and (ii) the phenotypic plasticity of SWP and its relationship to oil yield components in olive. Trees with a ...
Pollinator-mediated selection in a specialized pollination system: matches and mismatches among populations
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2010-09)
Most studies on pollinator-mediated selection have been performed in generalized rather than specialized pollination systems. This situation has impeded evaluation of the extent to which selection acts on attraction or ...
Surface Display of AcMNPV Occlusion-Derived P74 Does Not Enhance Oral Infectivity of Budded Viruses
(S. Karger AG, 2012-02)
Baculovirus occlusion-derived viruses (ODVs) and budded viruses (BVs) are morphologically and functionally distinct. ODVs are responsible for primary infection in insect hosts because of their high per os infectivity. On ...
Comparative characterization of Viperidae snake venoms from Peru reveals two compositional patterns of phospholipase A2 expression
(Elsevier, 2020)
Snake species within the Bothrops complex (sensu lato) are of medical relevance in Latin America, but knowledge on their venom characteristics is limited, or even unavailable, for some taxa. Perú harbors 17 species of pit ...
Application of crispr/cas9-based reverse genetics in leishmania braziliensis: Conserved roles for hsp100 and hsp23
(MDPI, 2020)
The protozoan parasite Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis (L. braziliensis) is the main cause of human tegumentary leishmaniasis in the New World, a disease affecting the skin and/or mucosal tissues. Despite its importance, ...
A Peruvian Child with 18p-/18q+ Syndrome and Persistent Microscopic Hematuria
(Thieme Gruppe, 2016)
Chromosome 18 pericentric inversion carriers could have offspring with recombinant chromosomes, leading to patients with clinical variable manifestations. Patients with 18p-/18q+ rearrangements share some clinical ...
Phenotypes and diagnosis in neuropathic painFenotipos y diagnóstico en dolor neuropático
(Sociedad Española Multidisciplinaria del Dolor, 2021)
Although all the clinical pictures of peripheral neuropathic pain have a common denominator as a characteristic, that is; damage or disease of the somatosensory nervous system, we must estimate that the underlying etiologies ...
Phenotypic selection by kelp gulls against pear-shaped shells of the Antarctic limpet Nacella concinna
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-10-30)
The Antarctic limpet (Nacella concinna) presents two ecotypes related to different water depths: littoral individuals have a robust and taller shell while sublittoral individuals are thinner and flatter. Among the environmental ...
The Southernmost Pre-Columbian Dogs in the Americas: Phenotype, Chronology, Diet and Genetics
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021-05)
The archaeological record shows the presence of medium-sized dogs with mesocephalic skulls in Southeast South America, from at least the end of the third millennium BP to historical times, along 700 km from southern Brazil ...
Prevalence and Association of Leishmania RNA Virus-1 (LRV-1) in Severe and Non-Severe Phenotypes of American Tegumentary Leishmaniasis from Peru
(Elsevier, 2018)
Background: American tegumentary leishmaniasis (ATL) comprises a discrete set of clinical presentations of leishmaniasis endemic to Latin America and particularly Peru. Leishmania RNA virus-1 (LRV-1) is a double stranded ...
