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 ...
Genetic regulation of volatile production in two melon introgression line collections with contrasting ripening behavior
(Oxford University Press, 2024-01-16)
The importance of melon aroma in determining fruit quality has been highlighted in recent years. The fruit volatile profile is influenced by the type of fruit ripening. Non-climacteric fruits contain ...
Cephalonomia tarsalis (Hymenoptera: Bethylidae) for the control of the sawtoothed grain beetle, either alone or in combination with the predatory mite Blattisocius tarsalis
(Elsevier, 2024-01-19)
The sawtoothed grain beetle Oryzaephilus surinamensis (L.) (Coleoptera: Silvanidae) is an important pest of stored cereals. Due to the phasing out of many active compounds registered as insecticides and ...
Sustainability Assessment after Twenty Years of Sewage Sludge Application on Calcareous Soil Following N or P Criterion
(MDPI, 2024-03-11)
Sewage sludge is a valuable source of nutrients when applied to the soil. Research on its agricultural use has been focused on chemical parameters to prevent heavy metal buildup. However, soil quality ...
Ppe.RPT/SSC‑1: from QTL mapping to a predictive KASP test for ripening time and soluble solids concentration in peach
(Nature Research, 2024-01-17)
Genomic regions associated with ripening time (RPT) and soluble solids concentration (SSC) were
mapped using a pedigreed population including multiple F1 and F2 families from the Clemson
University ...
Cambios en la presencia de especies de oribátidos (Acarina, Oribatida) asociados a la fertilización con purín porcino en clima Mediterráneo seco
(AIDA, 2024-03-01)
En sistemas agrícolas de secano, la sostenibilidad de las prácticas de fertilización con productos de origen orgánico requiere de indicadores que avalen su idoneidad. Los ácaros oribátidos, por su ciclo ...
Whole genome comparisons of Fragaria, Prunus and Malus reveal different modes of evolution between Rosaceous subfamilies
(BMC, 2012-04-04)
Background: Rosaceae include numerous economically important and morphologically diverse species.
Comparative mapping between the member species in Rosaceae have indicated some level of synteny. ...
Development and Evaluation of a 9K SNP Array for Peach by Internationally Coordinated SNP Detection and Validation in Breeding Germplasm
(Public Library of Science, 2012-04-20)
Although a large number of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers covering the entire genome are needed to
enable molecular breeding efforts such as genome wide association studies, fine mapping, ...
Analysing olive ripening with digital image RGB histograms
(Elsevier, 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 ...
Lobularia maritima as a nutrient-rich floral food source for two parasitoid wasps of Tuta absoluta
(Schweizerbart Science Publishers, 2024-03-21)
Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) is one of the main pests threatening tomato production worldwide. Since its detection in the Mediterranean basin, it has been the target of research ...
