Ripening-related cell wall modifications in olive (Olea europaea L.) fruit: A survey of nine genotypes
(Elsevier, 2020-08-04)
The production of olive (Olea europaea L.) is very important economically in many areas of the world, and particularly in countries around the Mediterranean basin. Ripening-associated modifications in ...
New insights in the Spanish gene pool of olive (Olea europaea L.) preserved ex situ and in situ based on high-throughput molecular markers
(Frontiers Media, 2024-01-05)
In Spain, several local studies have highlighted the likely presence of
unknown olive cultivars distinct from the approximately 260 ones
previously described in the literature. Furthermore, recent ...
ʻFargaʼ Olive
(American Pomological Society, 2018-01)
‘Farga’ olive is an old and important cultivar grown in southeastern Spain for oil production (17,000 ha). Yet, scarce research has been conducted on its horticultural and oil characteristics. ‘Farga’ ...
Survey of over 4, 500 monumental olive trees preserved on-farm in the northeast Iberian Peninsula, their genotyping and characterization
(Elsevier, 2017-12-29)
Inventorying, characterising and conserving on-farm ancient olive trees is a priority for safeguarding their genetic, natural and agricultural value and for protecting ancient genotypes threatened with ...
A targeted foodomic approach to assess differences in extra virgin olive oils: Effects of storage, agronomic and technological factors
(Elsevier, 2023-09-20)
Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) quality and composition are mainly affected by genetics, agronomic and technological parameters, undergoing further modifications during storage. In this work, a chemometric ...
Utility of EST-SNP Markers for Improving Management and Use of Olive Genetic Resources: A Case Study at the Worldwide Olive Germplasm Bank of Córdoba
(MDPI, 2022-03-29)
Olive, the emblematic Mediterranean fruit crop, owns a great varietal diversity, which is maintained in ex situ field collections, such as the World Olive Germplasm Bank of Córdoba (WOGBC), Spain. ...
Optimizing the Malaxation Conditions to Produce an Arbequina EVOO with High Content of Bioactive Compounds
(MDPI, 2021-11-17)
To meet the growing demand for high-quality extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) with health-promoting properties and pleasant sensory properties, studies are needed to establish optimal production parameters. ...
High hydrostatic pressure enhances the formation of oleocanthal and oleacein in ‘Arbequina’ olive fruit
(Elsevier, 2023-10-30)
During olive oil production, the activity of endogenous enzymes plays a crucial role in determining the oil’s
phenolic composition. β-Glucosidase contributes to the formation of secoiridoids, while ...
Conservation of native wild ivory-white olives from the MEDES islands natural reserve to maintain virgin olive oil diversity
(MDPI, 2020-10-17)
Food diversity, and in particular genetic diversity, is being lost at an alarming rate. Protection
of natural areas is crucial to safeguard the world’s threatened species. The Medes Islands (MI), ...
Targeted metabolic profiling of the revived ancient ‘Corbella’ olive cultivar during early maturation
(Elsevier, 2023-07-26)
‘Corbella’ is an ancient olive cultivar whose cultivation has recently been revived and hence little is known about
its composition. This is the first work studying the metabolic profile of ‘Corbella’ ...
