• Agronomic characterization of paspalum atratum swallen and P. lenticulare kunth 

      Marcón, Florencia; Urbani, Mario Hugo; Quarin, Camilo Luis; Acuña, Carlos Alberto (International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT), 2018-05-31)
      Paspalum atratum and P. lenticulare are perennial grasses, native to South America. The objective was to evaluate seasonal growth, frost tolerance, cattle preference, nutritional characteristics, seed yield and germination ...
    • Diversity in apomictic populations of Paspalum simplex Morong 

      Brugnoli, Elsa Andrea; Urbani, Mario Hugo; Quarin, Camilo Luis; Zilli, Alex Leonel; Martínez, Eric Javier; Acuña, Carlos Alberto (Crop Science Soc Amer, 2014)
      Paspalum is considered a genetic model for studying the sources of genotypic variability and breeding techniques in apomictic plants. Pas­palum simplex is a warm-season forage grass that well represents the genus since it ...
    • Diversity in diploid, tetraploid and mixed diploid-tetraploid populations of paspalum simplex 

      Brugnoli, Elsa Andrea; Urbani, Mario Hugo; Quarin, Camilo Luis; Martínez, Eric Javier; Acuña, Carlos Alberto (Crop Science Society of America, 2013-07)
      The tetraploid cytotype of Paspalum simplex has a wide geographical distribution and reproduces by apomixis, while the diploid grows in a restricted area in northern Argentina and behaves as cross-pollinated. The objective ...

      Mango, Analía; Urbani, Mario Hugo; Iglesias, María Cándida (Universidad Nacional del Nordeste. Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias. Instituto Agrotécnico "Pedro M. Fuentes Godo", 2017-11-30)
    • Genetic relationship among paspalum species of the subgenus anachyris : taxonomic and evolutionary implications 

      Zilli, Alex Leonel; Hojsgaard, Diego Hernán; Brugnoli, Elsa Andrea; Acuña, Carlos Alberto; Honfi, Ana Isabel; Urbani, Mario Hugo; Quarin, Camilo Luis; Martínez, Eric Javier (Elsevier, 2014-10)
      Paspalum is one of the most important genera of the Poaceae family due to its large number of species and diversity. The subgenus Anachyris comprises six species mainly from South America grouped together by sharing rare ...
    • Genetic transfer from several apomictic tetraploid paspalum species to an elite group of sexual plants 

      Novo, Patricia Elda; Acuña, Carlos Alberto; Urbani, Mario Hugo; Galdeano, Florencia; Espinoza, Francisco; Quarin, Camilo Luis (Crop Science Society of America, 2020)
      Basic findings from classical genetic studies are available for exploiting apomixis in the breeding of several forage grass genera. Most Paspalum species are multi- ploid with a sexual diploid cytotype and conspecific ...
    • Hybridization and heterosis in the plicatula group of paspalum 

      Novo, Patricia Elda; Acuña, Carlos Alberto; Quarin, Camilo Luis; Urbani, Mario Hugo; Marcón, Florencia; Espinoza, Francisco (Springer, 2017)
      Most forage cultivars released for thegenus Paspalum belong to a section named Plicatula.The species of Plicatula are mostly apomictic andconsequently the genetic diversity is locked for theirgeneticimprovement. The ...
    • Registration of ‘Boyero UNNE’ Bahiagrass 

      Urbani, Mario Hugo; Acuña, Carlos Alberto; Doval, D. W.; Sartor, María Esperanza; Galdeano, Florencia; Blount, A. R.; Quesenberry, K. H.; Mackowiak, Cheryl L.; Quarin, Camilo Luis (Crop Science Society of America, 2017-01)
      ‘Boyero UNNE’ (Reg. No. CV-5, PI 676021) bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flüggé) was registered with the National Register of Plant Cultivars and the National Register of Property for Plant Cultivars, Ministry of Agriculture, ...
    • Relative DNA content in diploid, polyploid, and multiploid species of Paspalum (Poaceae) with relation to reproductive mode and taxonomy 

      Galdeano, Florencia; Urbani, Mario Hugo; Sartor, María Esperanza; Honfi, Ana Isabel; Espinoza, Francisco; Quarin, Camilo Luis (Springer, 2016-03-10)
      It is generally accepted that polyploids have downsized basic genomes rather than additive values with respect to their related diploids. Changes in genome size have been reported in correlation with several biological ...
    • Utilización de agroinsumos en paspalum atratum cv. Cambá FCA 

      Krynski, Mariel A.; Romero, Amalia María Eugenia; Urbani, Mario Hugo (Universidad Nacional del Nordeste. Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias. Instituto Agrotécnico "Pedro M. Fuentes Godo", 2020-12-21)
      The aim of this work was to assess the effect of agro-inputs in biomass production of Paspalum atratum cv. Cambá and in soil biological activity. The sowing of pasture was carried out in pots with sandy soil. Seven treatments ...
