(Journal of Dairy Science, 2021-04-15)The consequences of supplementing Lys, Met, and Thr in milk replacers (MR) for calves have been widely studied, but scarce information exists about potential roles of other AA (whether essential or not). ... -
Using flower strips to promote green lacewings to control cabbage insect pests
(Journal of Pest Science, 2021-08-23)Habitat management improves biological control by increasing the abundance and fitness of natural enemies through the provision of floral resources along field edges or between crops. Among the natural ... -
Using fluorescence excitation-emission matrices to predict bitterness and pungency of virgin olive oil: A feasibility study
(Food Chemistry, 2022-06-29)Unlike other food products, virgin olive oil must undergo an organoleptic assessment that is currently based on a trained human panel, which presents drawbacks that might affect the efficiency and ... -
Using forced regrowth to manipulate Chardonnay grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) development to evaluate phenological stage responses to temperature
(Scientia Horticulturae, 2019-12-06)Time and environmental conditions, such as temperature and photoperiod, are the main drivers governing grapevine development over the growing season. The most obvious growth periods in grapevines are ... -
Using genome wide association studies to identify common QTL regions in three different genetic backgrounds based on Iberian pig breed
(Public Library of Science, 2018-03-09)One of the major limitation for the application of QTL results in pig breeding and QTN identification has been the limited number of QTL effects validated in different animal material. The aim of the ... -
Using plant growth‑promoting microorganisms (PGPMs) to improve plant development under in vitro culture conditions
(Planta, 2022-05-05)Plant in vitro culture techniques are highly useful to obtain signifcant amounts of true-to-type and disease-free plant materials. One of these techniques is clonal micropropagation which consists on ... -
Using plant, microbe, and soil fauna traits to improve the predictive power of biogeochemical models
(Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2018-09-11)Process‐based models describing biogeochemical cycling are crucial tools to understanding long‐term nutrient dynamics, especially in the context of perturbations, such as climate and land‐use change. ... -
