Are the agronomic performance and grain quality characteristics of bread wheat Mediterranean landraces related to the climate prevalent in their area of origin?
(Elsevier, 2022-04-15)
This study analyses the relationship between the climate of the countries where wheat landraces are specifically adapted, and their agronomic and grain quality characteristics. Regions with similar ...
Candidate genes underlying QTL for flowering time and their interactions in a wide spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cross
(Elsevier, 2020-11-18)
Response to vernalization and photoperiod are the main determinants controlling the time to flowering in temperate cereals. While the individual genes that determine a plant’s response to these environmental ...
Dairy cattle slurry fertilization management in an intensive Mediterranean agricultural system to sustain soil quality while enhancing rapeseed nutritional value
(Elsevier, 2020-08-14)
Animal excreta are commonly recycled as fertilizers, although attention should be given to environmental impacts. Legislation must also be adapted to new research findings. The framework of this study ...
Soil porosity changes in orchards with subsurface irrigation: quantification and interpretation
(Sociedad Geológica Mexicana, 2018-11-07)
In order to assess the irrigation efficiency under
water-limiting conditions, four different treatments of subsurface irrigation of peach trees in a
semi-arid Mediterranean climate near Lleida ...
Classification of Different Irrigation Systems at Field Scale Using Time-Series of Remote Sensing Data
(IEEE, 2022-11-17)
Maps of irrigation systems are of critical value for a better understanding of the human impact on the water cycle, while they also present a very useful tool at the administrative level to monitor ...
Unravelling the responses of different apple varieties to water constraints by continuous field thermal monitoring
(Elsevier, 2022-03-03)
This research aimed at analyzing the response of apple tree varieties subjected to soil water deficit and atmospheric drought in a field phenotyping platform located in the Mediterranean area. The main ...
Impact of Deficit Irrigation Strategies Using Saline Water on Soil and Peach Tree Yield in an Arid Region of Tunisia
(MDPI, 2024-02-27)
Sustainable fruit orchard development in arid areas is severely affected by the scarcity of fresh water. To mitigate the lack of fresh water, the use of low-quality water for irrigation is becoming a ...
PrISM at Operational Scale: Monitoring Irrigation District Water Use during Droughts
(MDPI, 2024-03-22)
Efficient water management strategies are of utmost importance in drought-prone regions, given the fundamental role irrigation plays in avoiding yield losses and food shortages. Traditional methodologies ...
Durum Wheat Landraces from East and West Regions of the Mediterranean Basin Are Genetically Distinct for Yield Components and Phenology
(Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018-02-08)
Genetic diversity of durum wheat landraces is a powerful tool for the introgression of new alleles of commercial interest in breeding programs. In a previous study, our team structured a collection of ...
