A regionalised life cycle assessment model to globally assess the environmental implications of soil salinization in irrigated agriculture
(American Chemical Society, 2020-02-21)
We present a global, locally resolved life cycle assessment (LCA) model to assess the potential effects on soil quality due to the accumulation of water-soluble salts in the agricultural soil profile, ...
Assessment of cytotoxicity in ten strains of Gambierdiscus australes from Macaronesian Islands by neuro-2a cell-based assays
(Springer, 2018-06-15)
Within the dinoflagellate genus Gambierdiscus several species are well-known producers of ciguatoxins (CTXs) and maitotoxins (MTXs). These compounds are potent marine toxins that accumulate through the ...
The effect of spray‐dried porcine plasma on gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) intestinal microbiota
(Wiley, 2020-01-24)
The effect of spray‐dried porcine plasma (SDPP) on the intestinal histological organization and autochthonous microbiota composition was evaluated in Sparus aurata. Fish were fed a basal diet (51 g/kg ...
Transfer of manure as fertilizer from livestock farms to crop fields: The case of Catalonia
(Elsevier, 2020-06-20)
Intensive livestock production might have a negative environmental impact, by producing large amounts of animal manure, which, if not properly managed, can contaminate nearby water bodies with nutrient ...
The ecology of predatory hoverflies as ecosystem-service providers in agricultural systems
(Elsevier, 2020-08-12)
The main contemporary challenge for agriculture is to meet the food demands of the increasing world population while becoming more environmentally sustainable. One way to achieve this is through the ...
Evaluation of a sanitizing washing step with different chemical disinfectants for the strawberry processing industry
(Elsevier, 2020-08-08)
Strawberries are often consumed fresh or only receive minimal processing, inducing a significant health risk to the consumer if contamination occurs anywhere from farm to fork. Outbreaks of foodborne ...
Colorimetric DNA-based assay for the specific detection and quantification of Ostreopsis cf. ovata and Ostreopsis cf. siamensis in the marine environment
(Elsevier, 2019-03-16)
Ostreopsis is a toxic benthic dinoflagellate largely distributed worldwide in tropical and temperate areas. In the Mediterranean Sea, periodic summer blooms have been reported and have become a serious ...
Integral procedure to predict bitter pit in ‘Golden Smoothee’ apples based on calcium content and symptom induction
(Elsevier, 2020-11-01)
Bitter pit has been described as one of the most important physiological disorders of apple fruit whose symptoms appear late in the season and during storage and which can cause high economic losses. ...
Contrasting outcomes of Vibrio harveyi pathogenicity in gilthead seabream, Sparus aurata and European seabass, Dicentrachus labrax
(Elsevier, 2019-06-11)
Vibrio harveyi has been reported as the dominant heterotrophic bacterial species in western Mediterranean coastal areas during warm seasons, and is recognized as an economically significant pathogen for ...
Parentage assignment, estimates of heritability and genetic correlation for growth-related traits in meagre Argyrosomus regius
(Elsevier, 2019-11-04)
Meagre is a relatively new aquaculture species with great potential in large scale European aquaculture. The primary objective of the study was to describe, for the first time, parentage allocation and ...
