Antimicrobial Resistant Salmonella in Chelonians: Assessing Its Potential Risk in Zoological Institutions in Spain
(Veterinary Sciences, 2022-05-31)Salmonella is mostly noted as a food-borne pathogen, but contact with chelonians has also been reported as a source of infection. Moreover, high levels of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) have been ... -
MAGGnet: An international network to foster mitigation of agricultural greenhouse gases
(Carbon Management, 2016-05-31)Research networks provide a framework for review, synthesis and systematic testing of theories by multiple scientists across international borders critical for addressing global-scale issues. In 2012, ... -
Treatment of swine manure: case studies in European’s N-surplus areas
(Scientia Agricola, 2016-09)In this study, eight different manure treatment plants were monitored. The plants were four on-farm and four centralized treatment plants, all of them at full-scale level. Assessment includes a total ... -
Genome-Wide Differentiation of Various Melon Horticultural Groups for Use in GWAS for Fruit Firmness and Construction of a High Resolution Genetic Map
(Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016-09-22)Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is a phenotypically diverse eudicot diploid (2n = 2x = 24) has climacteric and non-climacteric morphotypes and show wide variation for fruit firmness, an important trait for ... -
Research Note: Persistent Salmonella problems in slaughterhouses related to clones linked to poultry companies
(Poultry Science, 2022-05-21)Salmonellosis remains one of the main foodborne zoonoses in Europe, with poultry products as the main source of human infections. The slaughterhouse has been identified as a potential source for Salmonella ... -
Imaging technologies to study the composition of live pigs: a review
(Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2016-08-31)Image techniques are increasingly being applied to livestock animals. This paper overviews recent advances in image processing analysis for live pigs, including ultrasound, visual image analysis by ... -
Short communication: Emergence of a new race of leaf rust with combined virulence to Lr14a and Lr72 genes on durum wheat
(Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2016-08-31)Leaf rust is a foliar disease caused by the fungus Puccinia triticina that may severely reduce durum wheat yield. Resistance to this pathogen is common in modern durum germplasm but is frequently based ... -
Functional inclusion bodies produced in the yeast Pichia pastoris
(Microbial Cell Factories, 2016-10-01)Background: Bacterial inclusion bodies (IBs) are non‑toxic protein aggregates commonly produced in recombinant bacteria. They are formed by a mixture of highly stable amyloid‑like fibrils and releasable ... -
Extended methane mitigation capacity of a mid-season drainage beyond the rice growing season: a case in Spain
(Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2022-08-05)Rice cultivation is a major source of methane (CH4) emissions. Intermittent irrigation systems in rice cultivation, such as the mid-season drainage (MSD), are effective strategies to mitigate CH4 emissions ... -
