A multiplier peroxiporin signal transduction pathway powers piscine spermatozoa
(National Academy of Sciences, 2021-03-09)
The primary task of a spermatozoon is to deliver its nuclear payload to the egg to form the next-generation zygote. With polyandry repeatedly evolving in the animal kingdom, however, sperm competition ...
Horticultural performance of ‘Marinada’ and ‘Vairo’ almond cultivars grown on a genetically diverse set of rootstocks
(Elsevier, 2019-06-14)
Evolution of almond planted area and production has been mainly due to the arrival of new cultivars and rootstocks that have contributed to improve agronomic characters such as yield, precocity and ...
Occurrence of selected viral and bacterial pathogens and microbiological quality of fresh and frozen strawberries sold in Spain
(Elsevier, 2019-10-23)
Strawberry production and exports have been increasing in Spain in recent decades. However, little information is available about their microbiological quality. Due to the growing concern about the ...
Modeling of radio frequency heating of packed fluid foods moving on a conveyor belt: A case study for tomato puree
(Elsevier, 2023-05-20)
Computer simulation models were used to study radiofrequency heating of liquid foods moving on a conveyor belt between staggered-through field electrodes of non-uniform electric field distribution. ...
Utilisation of the marine microalgae Nannochloropsis sp. and Tetraselmis sp. as innovative ingredients in the formulation of wheat tortillas
(Elsevier, 2021-06-04)
Powdered biomass of Nannochloropsis sp. and Tetraselmis sp. were used as innovative ingredients in wheat tortillas at flour substitution levels of 0.5–3.0%. Incorporation of microalgae into the tortilla ...
Monitoring of bluetongue virus in zoo animals in Spain, 2007–2019
(Wiley, 2021-05-08)
Bluetongue (BT) is an emerging and re-emerging communicable vector-borne disease of animal health concern. A serosurvey was performed to assess exposure to BT virus (BTV) in zoo animals in Spain and to ...
Instrumental texture analysis on the surface of dry-cured ham to define the end of the process
(Elsevier, 2020-10-06)
The end of the elaboration process of dry-cured ham is currently decided by product weight loss and/or by an expert who carries out an evaluation of the tactile texture on the surface. The objective of ...
Activation of pro- and anti-inflammatory responses in lung tissue injury during the acute phase of PRRSV-1 infection with the virulent strain Lena
(Elsevier, 2020-06-02)
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) plays a key role in porcine respiratory disease complex modulating the host immune response and favouring secondary bacterial infections. ...
Effect of proteolysis index level on instrumental adhesiveness, free amino acids content and volatile compounds profile of dry-cured ham
(Elsevier, 2018-03-02)
Defective textures in dry-cured ham are a common problem that causes important economic losses in the ham industry. An increase of proteolysis during the dry-cured ham processing may lead to high ...
Below-ground hydraulic constraints during drought-induced decline in Scots pine
(Springer, 2018-11-20)
Key message
Below-crown hydraulic resistance, a proxy for below-ground hydraulic resistance, increased during drought in Scots pine, but larger increases were not associated to drought-induced defoliation. ...
