(Plant Methods, 2022-08-27)Background: Genome complexity is largely linked to diversifcation and crop innovation. Examples of regions with duplicated genes with relevant roles in agricultural traits are found in many crops. In ... -
An improved melon reference genome with single-molecule sequencing uncovers a recent burst of transposable elements with potential impact on genes
(Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020-01-31)The published melon (Cucumis melo L.) reference genome assembly (v3.6.1) has still 41.6 Mb (Megabases) of sequences unassigned to pseudo-chromosomes and about 57 Mb of gaps. Although different approaches ... -
An LTR retrotransposon in the promoter of a PsMYB10.2 gene associated with the regulation of fruit f lesh color in Japanese plum
(Horticulture Research, 2022-09-13)Japanese plums exhibit wide diversity of fruit coloration. The red to black hues are caused by the accumulation of anthocyanins, while their absence results in yellow, orange or green fruits. In Prunus, ... -
An Overview of Rice Cultivation in Spain and the Management of Herbicide-Resistant Weeds
(Agronomy, 2021-05-28)Spain is the second highest rice-producing country in the European Union, with approximately 105,000 ha used to grow this crop. The major rice-producing regions in Spain are Andalusia, Extremadura, ... -
Analysing olive ripening with digital image RGB histograms
(Analytica Chimica Acta, 2023-10-09)Digital images are commonly used to monitor processes that are based on colour changes due to their simplicity and easy capture. Colour information in these images can be analysed objectively and ... -
Are geographical indication products fostering public goods? Some evidence from Europe
(Sustainability, 2019-01-08)Within the framework of multifunctional conceptualisation, the authors have investigated the level of public goods embedded in Agri-food geographical indication products. Moving from the concept of the ... -
Assessing automatic data processing algorithms for RGB-D cameras to predict fruit size and weight in apples
(Computers and Electronics in Agriculture, 2023-10-07)Data acquired using an RGB-D Azure Kinect DK camera were used to assess different automatic algorithms to estimate the size, and predict the weight of non-occluded and occluded apples. The programming ... -
Automatic Fruit Morphology Phenome and Genetic Analysis: An Application in the Octoploid Strawberry
(Plant Phenomics, 2021-05-12)Automatizing phenotype measurement will decisively contribute to increase plant breeding efficiency. Among phenotypes, morphological traits are relevant in many fruit breeding programs, as appearance ... -
