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 ...
Chemical and Sensory Characterization of Nine Spanish Monovarietal Olive Oils: An Emphasis on Wax Esters
(MDPI, 2021-02-19)
Olive oil is an essential part of the so-called “Mediterranean diet”, purportedly one of the healthiest gastronomic traditions in the world. The wax content in olive oil is regulated under European Union ...
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 ...
Inheritance of Fruit Red-Flesh Patterns in Peach
(MDPI, 2023-01-14)
Fruit color is an important trait in peach from the point of view of consumer preference, nutritional content, and diversification of fruit typologies. Several genes and phenotypes have been described ...
Prospective exploration of hazelnut’s unsaponifiable fraction for geographical and varietal authentication: A comparative study of advanced fingerprinting and untargeted profiling techniques
(Elsevier, 2024-01-04)
This study compares two data processing techniques (fingerprinting and untargeted profiling) to authenticate
hazelnut cultivar and provenance based on its unsaponifiable fraction by GC–MS. PLS-DA ...
Influence of Regulated Deficit Irrigation on Arbequina’s Crop Yield and EVOOs Quality and Sensory Profile
(MDPI, 2022-12-22)
Regulated deficit irrigation in super-high-density (SHD) olive orchards is a well-known strategy to save water and control plant vigor, without decreasing fruit or oil yield. As there is controversial ...
Non-volatile signals and redox mechanisms are required for the responses of Arabidopsis roots to Pseudomonas oryzihabitans
(Oxford University Press, 2022-08-24)
Soil bacteria promote plant growth and protect against environmental stresses, but the mechanisms involved remain poorly characterized, particularly when there is no direct contact between the roots and ...
Influence of the Ripening Stage and Extraction Conditions on the Phenolic Fingerprint of ‘Corbella’ Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
(MDPI, 2021-05-30)
The ancient ‘Corbella’ olive variety from the center-north of Catalonia is being recovered to obtain quality extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) with unique organoleptic properties. The aim of this work was ...
Oleacein and Oleocanthal: Key Metabolites in the Stability of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
(MDPI, 2023-09-18)
The oxidative stability of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) depends on its composition, primarily, phenolic compounds and tocopherols, which are strong antioxidants, but also carotenoids,
squalene, and ...
Identification and characterization of Diaporthe spp. associated with twig cankers and shoot blight of almonds in Spain
(MDPI, 2020-07-23)
Two hundred and twenty-five Diaporthe isolates were collected from 2005 to 2019 in almond orchards showing twig cankers and shoot blight symptoms in five different regions across Spain. Multilocus DNA ...
