Intercropping of aromatic plants in truffle orchards: short-term effect on extraradical truffle mycelium and aromatic plant growth
(Springer, 2023-06-09)
Background and Aims
Intercropping of truffle-producing trees with aromatic plants is used to improve profitability of truffle orchards during the initial 4–7 years. However, after that period the ...
Genomic analysis of fruit size and shape traits in apple: unveiling candidate genes through GWAS analysis
(Oxford University Press, 2023-12-19)
Genomic tools facilitate the efficient selection of improved genetic materials within a breeding program. Here, we focus on two apple fruit quality traits: shape and size. We utilized data from 11 fruit ...
The haplotype-resolved T2T reference genome highlights structural variation underlying agronomic traits of melon
(Oxford University Press, 2023-09-04)
Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is an important vegetable crop that has an extensive history of cultivation. However, the genome of wild and semi-wild melon types that can be used for the analysis of agronomic ...
Effect of thinning with metamitron, NAA, BA and naphthenic acids on apple (Malus domestica) trees
(Springer, 2023-02-06)
The successful use of chemical thinners on apples requires programs employing multiple chemistries over the thinning period. A thinning program can be designed using various active ingredients in single ...
Effectiveness landscape of crop pollinator assemblages: Implications to pollination service management
(Elsevier, 2023-02-22)
There is a growing consensus that the world is facing a pollination crisis. To mitigate crop pollination deficits, some management strategies include the massive introduction of managed bee species, yet ...
AmodalAppleSize_RGB-D dataset: RGB-D images of apple trees annotated with modal and amodal segmentation masks for fruit detection, visibility and size estimation
(Elsevier, 2023-12-30)
The present dataset comprises a collection of RGB-D apple tree images that can be used to train and test computer vision-based fruit detection and sizing methods. This dataset encompasses two distinct ...
Identification of Vitis vinifera L. Local Cultivars Recovered in Andalusia (Spain) by Using Microsatellite Markers
(MDPI, 2023-02-28)
In Andalusia (Spain), there are different wine regions that have a great recognized tradition. In these regions, the cultivation of the vine is ancient and there are still vineyards planted with local ...
Almond population genomics and non-additive GWAS reveal new insights into almond dissemination history and candidate genes for nut traits and blooming time
(Oxford University Press, 2023-09-25)
Domestication drastically changed crop genomes, fixing alleles of interest and creating different genetic populations. Genome-wide
association studies (GWASs) are a powerful tool to detect these alleles ...
Field Plant Monitoring from Macro to Micro Scale: Feasibility and Validation of Combined Field Monitoring Approaches from Remote to in Vivo to Cope with Drought Stress in Tomato
(MDPI, 2023-11-14)
Monitoring plant growth and development during cultivation to optimize resource use efficiency is crucial to achieve an increased sustainability of agriculture systems and ensure food security. In this ...
A hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)-based coating inhibits ethylene-dependent quality changes and reduces superficial scald incidence and blue mould severity during postharvest handling of two apple varieties
(Elsevier, 2023-10-12)
The search of new alternatives to substitute postharvest treatments based on synthetic chemicals has gained attention on recent years due to social pressure and stricter legislative policies. Consequently, ...
