Impact Of Chill And Heat Exposures Under Diverse Climatic Conditions On Peach And Nectarine Flowering Phenology
(MDPI, 2023-01-29)
The present study aims to generalize cultivar-specific tree phenology responses to winter and spring temperatures and assess the effectiveness of the Tabuenca test and various chill and heat accumulation ...
Quantitation of endogenous amount of ethanol, methanol and acetaldehyde in ripe fruits of different Spanish olive varieties
(Wiley, 2020-02-25)
BACKGROUND The use of healthy olives and their good management along the production process are necessary to obtain the best quality virgin olive oils. One parameter related to the health of the olives ...
Carbon stocks and changes in biomass of Mediterranean woody crops over a six-year period in NE Spain
(Springer, 2022-09-15)
Carbon sequestration and storage in biomass is one of the most important measures to mitigate climate change. Mediterranean woody crops can sequestrate carbon in the biomass of their permanent structures ...

(Elsevier, 2020-01-23)
The potato psyllid Bactericera cockerelli (Hemiptera: Triozidae) has recently emerged as a serious pest of potatoes and other solanaceous crops. It causes direct feeding damage and also vectors Candidatus ...
The Effects of the Cultivar and Environment on the Phenolic Contents of Hazelnut Kernels
(MDPI, 2022-11-11)
Different climatic conditions are known to affect the synthesis of primary and secondary metabolites. Therefore, the phenolic contents in new growing areas could affect the quality and flavor of hazelnuts. ...
Mediterranean clonal selections evaluated for modern hedgerow olive oil production in Spain
(University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources, 2011-01-01)
Traditional olive oil production is
limited by its high cost, mainly due
to labor expenses for harvesting and
pruning. A new olive planting system
based on hedgerows and harvesting
machines could ...
Using fluorescence excitation-emission matrices to predict bitterness and pungency of virgin olive oil: A feasibility study
(Elsevier, 2022-06-29)
Unlike other food products, virgin olive oil must undergo an organoleptic assessment that is currently based on a trained human panel, which presents drawbacks that might affect the efficiency and ...
Using plant growth‑promoting microorganisms (PGPMs) to improve plant development under in vitro culture conditions
(Springer, 2022-05-05)
Plant in vitro culture techniques are highly useful to obtain signifcant amounts of true-to-type and disease-free
plant materials. One of these techniques is clonal micropropagation which consists on ...
Modelling physiological and environmental factors regulating relative fruit set and final fruit numbers in apple trees
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-02-19)
Chemical thinning of apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) has been practised for 50 years but it remains an unpredictable part of apple production with large variations from year to year and within years. ...
