Effect of different application rates of metamitron as fruitlet chemical thinner on thinning efficacy and fluorescence inhibition in Gala and Fuji apple
(Plant Growth Regulation, 2019-08-30)
Crop thinning is an important and difficult agricultural practice. Knowing the effect of the application dose of a product is a crucial element of any thinning program. The aims of this study were to ...
Agricultural soil organic carbon stocks in the north-eastern Iberian Peninsula: Drivers and spatial variability
(Science of the Total Environment, 2019-02-22)
Estimating soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks under agriculture, assessing the importance of their drivers and understanding the spatial distribution of SOC stocks are crucial to predicting possible future ...
Modelling physiological and environmental factors regulating relative fruit set and final fruit numbers in apple trees
(Journal of Horticultural Science and Biotechnology, 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. ...

Pedigree analysis of 220 almond genotypes reveals two world mainstream breeding lines based on only three different cultivars
(Horticulture Research, 2021-01-01)
Loss of genetic variability is an increasing challenge in tree breeding programs due to the repeated use of a reduced number of founder genotypes. However, in almond, little is known about the genetic ...
