A consensus map for quality traits in durum wheat based on genome-wide association studies and detection of ortho-meta QTL across cereal species
(Frontiers Media, 2022-08-30)
The present work focused on the identification of durum wheat QTL hotspots from a collection of genome-wide association studies, for quality traits, such as grain protein content and composition, yellow ...
The economic cost of losing native pollinator species for orchard prodution
(Wiley, 2020-01-19)
The alarming loss of pollinator diversity world‐wide can reduce the productivity of pollinator‐dependent crops, which could have economic impacts. However, it is unclear to what extent the loss of a key ...
An Overview of Rice Cultivation in Spain and the Management of Herbicide-Resistant Weeds
(MDPI, 2021-05-28)
Spain is the second highest rice-producing country in the European Union, with approximately 105,000 ha used to grow this crop. The major rice-producing regions in Spain are Andalusia, Extremadura, ...
Exploring the Genetic Architecture of Root-Related Traits in Mediterranean Bread Wheat Landraces by Genome-Wide Association Analysis
(MDPI, 2020-04-25)
Background: Roots are essential for drought adaptation because of their involvement in water and nutrient uptake. As the study of the root system architecture (RSA) is costly and time-consuming, it is ...
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 ...
Recombination in the wheat stem rust pathogen mediated by an indigenous barberry species in Spain
(Frontiers Media, 2024-01-15)
The comeback of wheat stem rust in Europe, caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici, and the prevalence of the alternate (sexual) host in local areas have recently regained attention as a potential ...
Genome-wide association analysis od senescence-related traits in maize
(MDPI, 2022-12-14)
Senescence is a programmed process that involves the destruction of the photosynthesis apparatus and the relocation of nutrients to the grain. Identifying senescence-associated genes is essential to ...
Two Indigenous Berberis Species From Spain Were Confirmed as Alternate Hosts of the Yellow Rust Fungus Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici
(American Phytopathological Society, 2021-10-28)
Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, which causes yellow (or stripe) rust on wheat, is a macrocyclic and heteroecious fungus. In this study, we investigated whether Berberis vulgaris subsp. seroi and ...
Global loss of climatically suitable areas for durum wheat growth in the future
(IOP Publishing, 2021-10-19)
Durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) is a minor cereal crop of key importance for making pasta, couscous, burghul, puddings, bread and many other traditional foods, due to its physical and chemical ...
Unravelling consensus genomic regions conferring leaf rust resistance in wheat via meta-QTL analysis
(Wiley Open Access, 2021-12-17)
Leaf rust, caused by the fungus Puccinia triticina Erikss (Pt), is a destructive disease affecting wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and a threat to food security. Developing resistant cultivars represents ...
