Contrasting Embryogenic Trajectories Reveal Spatial Control as a Key Determinant of Embryogenic Competence in Theobroma cacao L. [PDF]

Physiol Plant
ABSTRACT Somatic embryogenesis (SE) in Theobroma cacao is a micropropagation technique of great importance but remains constrained by genotype recalcitrance. The cellular and molecular mechanisms distinguishing regenerative from non‐regenerative responses remain poorly understood.

Effect of composting on bacterial communities in poultry litter generated using conventional and organic production systems. [PDF]

J Environ Qual
Abstract Poultry production generates substantial quantities of poultry litter, which can be applied to agricultural soils as organic fertilizer. Although this production system is sustainable, it can increase the microbial numbers and change ecological interactions and trophic networks in the soil.

Network analysis uncovers putative genes affecting resistance to tick infestation in Braford cattle skin

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background Genetic resistance in cattle is considered a suitable way to control tick burden and its consequent losses for livestock production. Exploring tick-resistant (R) and tick-susceptible (S) hosts, we investigated the genetic mechanisms underlying

Peridomestic infestation by Triatoma pallidipennis and natural infection with Trypanosoma cruzi in Zacatepec, Morelos, Mexico Infestación peridoméstica por Triatoma pallidipennis e infección natural por Trypanosoma cruzi en Zacatepec, Morelos, México

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Entomological and community‐related risk factors for Chagas disease were assessed through peridomestic sampling, calculation of entomological indices and surveys of community knowledge, attitudes and practices. Forty‐six triatomines, all identified as Triatoma pallidipennis, were collected, and all specimens showed natural infection with Trypanosoma ...
