Genome-Wide Diversity in Lowland and Highland Maize Landraces From Southern South America: Population Genetics Insights to Assist Conservation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays ssp. mays L.) landraces are traditional American crops with high genetic variability that conform a source of original alleles for conventional maize breeding. Northern Argentina, one the southernmost regions of traditional maize cultivation in the Americas, harbours around 57 races traditionally grown in two regions with ...

Variables that intervene in the weight of rotifer biomass and fatty acids
Abstract The biomass of rotifers is used as live food in aquaculture; their quality is determined by the content of the main polyunsaturated fatty acids and the weight it acquires over time. The objective of this work was to evaluate the variables involved in this process to achieve higher quality.

Abstract Chondracanthus chamissoi is part of the diet of coastal people from Peru and is exported dehydrated to Asian countries for direct consumption. Although it is considered endemic to Peru and Chile, its range has extended to distant regions, such as Korea, Japan, and France. Using morphological and molecular approaches, we examined specimens from

The Key Role of Cultural Preservation in Maize Diversity Conservation in the Argentine Yungas
Farmers’ decisions on what to grow and why can contribute in understanding the conservation of agrobiodiversity. Culture and ethnicity are indicated as first‐class factors leading preservation of heirloom cultivars but this has been little considered in studies examining factors that influence the loss or preservation of agrobiodiversity.
