A review about the status of the knowledge on septoria leaf blotch with emphasis in investigations carried out in Argentina is presented

The first-year dataset of the three year experiment has been analysed. To find out, which genotype is recommended for intensive and which one is for extensive cultivation, the performances of the varieties were characterized under low and also under favourable nitrogen supply. The varieties were also ranked based on the increased level of their performance due to the nitrogen supply. Correlations between the measured phenotypic data and the NUE parameters were also calculated.

The poster describes a non-destructive method to assess biomass based on remote sensing techniques. This method is suitable for field phenotyping and it is useful to assess biomass evolution as well as to estimate radiation use efficiency.

Rice seeds loose germination capacity with ageing. Loses in genetic integrity was found to occur during artificial ageing at a time when percentage germination declined to 54%.

Analysis of the genomic structure of a wheat NIL population segregating for resistance to glume blotch with a 90k ILLUMINA SNP chip

High Resolution GC-TOFMS and GC×GC-TOFMS are useful for a non-target comprehensive characterization of petroleum through a petroleomic approach, and can also provide targeted analysis of chemical markers.

High Resolution GC-TOFMS analysis with high resolution and high mass accuracy is crucial for identification of crude oil and asphaltene pyrolysis products by unequivocal chemical formula assignment, with enhancement of sensitivity and selectivity.

Thermal desorption coupled to GC×GC-TOFMS and GC-HRT were effective tools for enhancing the number of compounds identifiable in suspended sediment without wet chemistry. GC×GC-TOFMS provides high chromatographic resolution for unknown identification with 2D deconvolution and mass spectral library database searching. GC-HRT provides high mass resolution and selectivity for unknown identification with High Resolution Deconvolution™.

Proper sample preparation is critical for the analysis of complex samples. GC-HRT provides high quality, accurate mass data for:
-Spectral similarity searches (NIST, Wiley, etc.)
-Formula determination (fragment, molecular, and adduct ions)

Analyses of the M. truncatula extracts were performed, and data processing focused on qualitative analyses. This provided the opportunity for known analyte verification and unknown identification in a meaningful matrix and the demonstration of the key attributes and benefits of GC-HRT.

High resolution GC-TOFMS on the Pegasus GC-HRT allowed for quick and easy non-targeted screening of extractables from a common consumer product: the ubiquitous cell phone case. Most components could be identified with high similarity scores against commercial libraries. However, even when faced with low similarity scores against commercial libraries, such as in the case of Biphenol AF, the ability to rely on high mass accuracy allowed for confident identification of components.
