Altitudinal distribution and body condition of migratory fish juveniles Megaleporinus obtusidens (Valenciennes) and Salminus brasiliensis (Cuvier) in the main channel of the Uruguay River, Southern Brazil
In this study, we analyzed the altitudinal distribution and body condition of the juvenile migratory fish Megaleporinus obtusidens and Salminus brasiliensis in the Uruguay River, a South American subtropical river. We used the presence/absence data and condition factor (K) of juveniles as indicators to try to characterize some recruitment patterns of migratory fish in the main channel of the Uruguay River. Gillnet sampling was conducted during two reproductive years, 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 (November and March of each reproductive year), in three Uruguay River stretches at different levels of altitude. The nets remained in...

Impact of phenylalanine on Hanseniaspora vineae aroma metabolism during wine fermentation
Int J Food Microbiol. 2024 Feb 17;415:110631. doi: 10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2024.110631. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHanseniaspora vineae exhibits extraordinary positive oenological characteristics contributing to the aroma and texture of wines, especially by its ability to produce great concentrations of benzenoid and phenylpropanoid compounds compared with conventional Saccharomyces yeasts. Consequently, in practice, sequential inoculation of H. vineae and Saccharomyces cerevisiae allows to improve the aromatic quality of wines. In this work, we evaluated the impact on wine aroma produced by increasing the concentration o...

Genomic characterization of Moraxella bovis and Moraxella bovoculi Uruguayan strains isolated from calves with infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis
Rev Argent Microbiol. 2024 Feb 24:S0325-7541(24)00004-X. doi: 10.1016/j.ram.2023.12.003. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTInfectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis (IBK) is an ocular disease that affects bovines and has significant economic and health effects worldwide. Gram negative bacteria Moraxella bovis and Moraxella bovoculi are its main etiological agents. Antimicrobial therapy against IBK is often difficult in beef and dairy herds and, although vaccines are commercially available, their efficacy is variable and dependent on local strains. The aim of this study was to analyze for the first time the genomes of Uruguayan cl...

What's in my Pot? Six Colletotrichum Species Causing Anthracnose in Brazilian Pecan Orchards
This study used morphological and molecular approaches to identify the Colletotrichum species causing anthracnose in pecan plantations in Southern Brazil. The isolates obtained from pecan fruits with anthracnose symptoms were grouped through quantitative morphological characteristics into three distinct morphotypes. Molecular analysis of nuclear genes allowed the identification of six species of Colletotrichum causing anthracnose in pecan: C. nymphaeae, C. fioriniae, C. gloeosporioides, C. siamense, C. kahawae, and C. karsti. Three of these species are reported for the first time as causal agents of anthracnose in pecan. T...
