Precipitation estimations based on remote sensing compared with data from weather stations over agricultural region of Argentina pampas
(Elsevier, 2021-08-01)
Global patterns of precipitation have changed due to the increase in temperature as a result of climate change. Measuring the amount of precipitation at a given location using surface instruments is relatively simple. ...
Wild halophytic species as forage sources: key aspects for plant breeding
(Wiley; British Grassland Society; European Grassland Federation, 2019-02-20)
The use of wild halophytic species as forage resources in saline environments has gained increasing attention. Argentina ranks third in area of saline soils in the world, with a third of its territory showing various degrees ...
Nutrient deficiency and hypoxia as constraints to Panicum coloratum growth in alkaline soils
(Wiley; British Grassland Society; European Grassland Federation, 2017-12)
Alkaline and saline–alkaline soils impose severe restrictions on plant growth. Panicum coloratum var. coloratum is a perennial C4 forage grass widely used in tropical and subtropical environments. Published information on ...
Basis for the Management of Schistocerca cancellata (Orthoptera: Acrididae)
(Oxford Academic Press, 2022-11)
The locust species Schistocerca cancellata Serville, endemic to South America, is known for its ability to form dense swarms, which reach the status of agricultural pest for several crops in southern South America. This ...
Transcriptomic Survey of the Midgut of Anthonomus grandis (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
(Entomological Society of America, 2014-11)
Anthonomus grandis Boheman is a key pest in cotton crops in the New World. Its larval stage develops within the flower bud using it as food and as protection against its predators. This behavior limits the effectiveness ...
The manifestation of secondary bias on the galaxy population from IllustrisTNG300
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-06)
We use the improved IllustrisTNG300 magnetohydrodynamical cosmological simulation to revisit the effect that secondary halo bias has on the clustering of the central galaxy population. With a side length of 205 h−1 Mpc and ...
Chemical compounds related to nutraceutical and industrial qualities of non‐transgenic soybean genotypes
(Wiley; Society of Chemical Industry, 2014-05)
BACKGROUND:
Information about the chemical profile of soybean seed is valuable for breeding programs aimed at obtaining value‐added products to meet the demands of niche markets. The objective of this study was to determine ...
Ecosystem services costs of metal mining and pressures on biomes
(Elsevier, 2020-01)
Metal mining has significant impacts on the land it uses. With increasing demand for metals, these impacts will continue to intensify. One way to look at land use and related environmental impacts is the concept of ecosystem ...
Nest survival of the Two-Banded Plover (Charadrius falklandicus) population in Northern Chubut Province, Patagonia Argentina
(American Ornithological Society, 2016)
Current efforts to monitoring the Two-Banded Plover (Charadrius falklandicus), an endemic shorebird to southern South America, have provided information on their breeding biology at beaches with human disturbance in northern ...
An evolutionary model for the gamma-ray system psr j1311-3430 and its companion
(Wiley-blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2013-06)
The most recent member of the millisecond pulsar with very low mass companions and short orbital periods class, PSR J1311−3430 (Pletsch et al. 2012) is a remarkable object in various senses. Besides being the first discovered ...
