Evaluation of a SUMO E2 conjugating enzyme involved in resistance to Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis in Solanum peruvianum, through a tomato mottle virus VIGS assay
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2015-12)"Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis (Cmm) causes bacterial wilt and canker of tomato. Currently, no Solanum lycopersicum resistant varieties are commercially available, but some degree of Cmm resistance has ... -
Physiological and molecular implications of plant polyamine metabolism during biotic interactions
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2014-03)"During ontogeny, plants interact with a wide variety of microorganisms. The association with mutualistic microbes results in benefits for the plant. By contrast, pathogens may cause a remarkable impairment of plant growth ... -
Overexpression of AtGRDP2, a novel glycine-rich domain protein, accelerates plant growth and improves stress tolerance
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2015-01)"Proteins with glycine-rich signatures have been reported in a wide variety of organisms including plants, mammalians, fungi, and bacteria. Plant glycine-rich protein genes exhibit developmental and tissue-specific expression ... -
Composition and function of P bodies in Arabidopsis thaliana
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2014-05)"mRNA accumulation is tightly regulated by diverse molecular pathways. The identification and characterization of enzymes and regulatory proteins involved in controlling the fate of mRNA offers the possibility to broaden ... -
A dehydrin-dehydrin interaction: the case of SK3 from Opuntia streptacantha
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2014-10)"Dehydrins belongs to a large group of highly hydrophilic proteins known as Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) proteins. It is well known that dehydrins are intrinsically disordered plant proteins that accumulate during the ... -
Molecular modeling and expression analysis of a MADS-box cDNA from mango (Mangifera indica L.)
(2014-08)"MADS-box genes are a large family of transcription factors initially discovered for their role during development of flowers and fruits. The MADS-box transcription factors from animals have been studied by X-ray protein ... -
High resistance to oxidative stress in the fungal pathogen Candida glabrata is mediated by a single catalase, Cta1p, and is controlled by the transcription factors Yap1p, Skn7p, Msn2p, and Msn4p
(2008-05)"We characterized the oxidative stress response of Candida glabrata to better understand the virulence of this fungal pathogen. C. glabrata could withstand higher concentrations of H2O2 than Saccharomyces cerevisiae and ... -
Subtelomeric silencing of the MTL3 locus of Candida glabrata requires yKu70, yKu80, and Rif1 proteins
(2010-10)"Candida glabrata is a haploid opportunistic fungal pathogen that is phylogenetically related to Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Even though C. glabrata has no known sexual cycle, it contains, like S. cerevisiae, three mating ... -
yKu70/yKu80 and Rif1 regulate silencing differentially at telomeres in Candida glabrata
(2008-12)"Candida glabrata, a common opportunistic fungal pathogen, adheres efficiently to mammalian epithelial cells in culture. This interaction in vitro depends mainly on the adhesin Epa1, one of a large family of cell wall ... -
Characterization of volatile compounds from ethnic Agave alcoholic beverages by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
(Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology, University of Zagreb, 2008)"Ethnic Agave alcoholic beverages such as raicilla, sisal, tequila, mezcal, bacanora, sotol and pulque have been analyzed by gas chromatography and headspace solid-phase microextraction- gas chromatography-mass spectrometry ... -
Genetic diversity of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex in San Luis Potosí, México
(2013)"Background Although epidemiologic and socioeconomic criteria and biomedical risk factors indicate high-priority for tuberculosis (TB) control in Mexico, molecular epidemiology studies of the disease in the country are ... -
Occurrence of killer Candida glabrata clinical isolates
(2012)"In this work we characterized the occurrence of killer activity in 64 Candida glabrata clinical isolates under different conditions. We found that only 6.25 % of the clinical isolates tested were positive for killer ... -
Optimization of bioethanol production from coffee mucilage
(2015-08)"A response surface methodology with 2(k) full factorial design was applied to obtain optimum conditions for bioethanol production using coffee mucilage (CM) as the substrate and Saccharomyces cerevisiae NRRL Y-2034 as the ... -
Differences in plant cover and species composition of semiarid grassland communities of central Mexico and its effects on net ecosystem exchange
(2013)"Changes in land use across the semiarid grasslands of northern Mexico have driven a decline of plant cover and alteration of plant species composition. A number of different plant communities have resulted from these ... -
Technical note: application of geophysical tools for tree root studies in forest ecosystems in complex soils
(2017-11)"While semiarid forests frequently colonize rocky substrates, knowledge is scarce on how roots garner resources in these extreme habitats. The Sierra San Miguelito Volcanic Complex in central Mexico exhibits shallow soils ... -
Butterfly conservation within cities: a landscape scale approach integrating natural habitats and abandoned fields in central Mexico
(2016-06)"Growing urbanization and the expansion of the agricultural frontier in tropical ecosystems have generated patchy landscapes composed of remnants of natural habitats and abandoned fields. This scenario offers an opportunity ... -
Regionalization and classification of bioclimatic zones in the central-northeastern region of México using principal component analysis (PCA)
(2007)"Utilizando un análisis de componentes principales, determinamos zonas climáticas en un gradiente topográfico en la zona centro-noreste de México. Se emplearon datos de precipitación y temperatura medias mensuales por un ... -
Potential distributional patterns of three wild ungulate species in a fragmented tropical region of northeastern Mexico
(2013)"In the northernmost American tropical forests of eastern Mexico, we analyzed the potential distribution of three ungulate species, Odocoileus virginianus, Mazama temama and Pecari tajacu, in response to several physical, ... -
