Parámetros genéticos de caracteres de interés agronómico en cuatro poblaciones espontáneas de Pappophorum vaginatum (Poaceae) en la región semiárida de la provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina

Lilloa, 2021
En Argentina, más específicamente en los pastizales del sur de la provincia fitogeográfica del Monte, Pappophorum vaginatum Buckley es prácticamente la única especie que provee forraje para los animales durante el verano. Debido a esto, se necesitan estudios orientados a lograr la mejora genética en esta especie que combine los efectos de la selección ...

A multidisciplinary approach to estimating wolf population size for long‐term conservation

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023
Abstract The wolf (Canis lupus) is among the most controversial of wildlife species. Abundance estimates are required to inform public debate and policy decisions, but obtaining them at biologically relevant scales is challenging. We developed a system for comprehensive population estimation across the Italian alpine region (100,000 km2), involving ...

Estimation of additive genetic variance when there are gene–environment correlations: Pitfalls, solutions and unexplored questions

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1245-1258, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Estimating the genetic variation underpinning a trait is crucial to understanding and predicting its evolution. A key statistical tool to estimate this variation is the animal model. Typically, the environment is modelled as an external variable independent of the organism, affecting the focal phenotypic trait via phenotypic plasticity.

Identifying Key Biodiversity Areas Based on Distinct Genetic Diversity

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are sites that contribute significantly to the global persistence of biodiversity. Distinct genetic diversity has been introduced as one of the metrics to estimate whether a site holds a threshold proportion of a species' global genetic diversity during the KBA identification process.

Is parvovirus B19 infection upsurge in 2023–2024 associated with adverse pregnancy outcome?

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 66, Issue 3, Page 307-313, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective A surge in parvovirus B19 infections has been reported in 2023–2024 across Europe and the USA, raising concerns about the associated perinatal risks. The aim of this study was to compare perinatal outcomes following maternal parvovirus B19 infection during the 2023–2024 period with those from a pre‐2023 cohort.

Anomalous latitudinal gradients in parasitoid wasp diversity—Hotspots in regions with larger temperature range

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 3, Page 410-422, March 2025.
Using the largest georeferenced molecular dataset for ichneumonoid parasitoid wasps, we implemented a macrogenetics approach to examine latitudinal patterns and predictors of intraspecific genetic diversity and explain the global distribution of genetic diversity in this group.

Fetal lower urinary tract obstruction: international Delphi consensus on management and core outcome set

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 64, Issue 5, Page 635-650, November 2024.
ABSTRACT Objectives To reach an international expert consensus on the diagnosis, prognosis and management of fetal lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO) by means of a Delphi procedure, and to use this to define a core outcome set (COS). Methods A three‐round Delphi procedure was conducted among an international panel of experts in fetal LUTO.

A multiple trait assessment provides insights into the short‐time viability of a newly founded population in an endangered island passerine

Animal Conservation, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 507-521, August 2024.
We evaluated the viability of a newly founded population of the endangered Gran Canaria blue chaffinch (Fringilla polatzeki). We performed a multiple trait assessment of genetic, body condition and breeding success data. Our findings suggest that the translocation program has been successful and provide insights on the effectiveness of the actions ...

Thermal plasticity has higher fitness costs among thermally tolerant genotypes of Tigriopus californicus

Functional Ecology, Volume 38, Issue 7, Page 1562-1577, July 2024.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Under climate change, ectotherms will likely face pressure to adapt to novel thermal environments by increasing their upper thermal tolerance and its plasticity, a measure of thermal acclimation. Ectotherm populations with high thermal tolerance are often less thermally
