Durum wheat in the Mediterranean Rim: historical evolution and genetic resources
(Springer, 2020-03-11)
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. subsp. durum (Desf.) van Slageren) is an important crop in the Mediterranean Rim, and it is deeply rooted in the history and tradition of this region. Recently, several ...
Effect of tree type and rootstock on the long-term performance of ‘Gala’, ‘Fuji’ and ‘Honeycrisp’ apple trees trained to Tall Spindle under New York State climatic conditions
(Elsevier, 2018-11-26)
In 2006, two 0.3 ha orchard trials were established at two sites (Dressel farm in Southeastern New York State and VandeWalle farm in Western New York State) to compare two tree types (feathered trees ...
Multi-environment QTL analysis using an updated genetic map of a widely distributed Seri × Babax spring wheat population
(Springer, 2019-08-30)
Seri/Babax spring wheat RIL population was developed to minimize the confounding effect of phenology in the genetic dissection of abiotic stress traits. An existing linkage map (< 500 markers) was updated ...
Modeling soil accretion and carbon accumulation in deltaic rice fields
(Elsevier, 2023-07-17)
Rice cultivation is popular in low-lying areas such as deltas, but climate change threatens the viability of the crop. In recent decades, the resilience of deltas to sea level rise (SLR) has been ...
New insights in the Spanish gene pool of olive (Olea europaea L.) preserved ex situ and in situ based on high-throughput molecular markers
(Frontiers Media, 2024-01-05)
In Spain, several local studies have highlighted the likely presence of
unknown olive cultivars distinct from the approximately 260 ones
previously described in the literature. Furthermore, recent ...
Comparative transcriptional profiling analysis of developing melon (Cucumis melo L.) fruit from climacteric and non-climacteric varieties
(BMC, 2015-06-09)
Background: In climacteric fruit-bearing species, the onset of fruit ripening is marked by a transient rise in
respiration rate and autocatalytic ethylene production, followed by rapid deterioration ...
Effects of the application of a moderate alternate wetting and drying technique on the performance of different European varieties in Northern Italy rice system
(Elsevier, 2021-07-03)
Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) technique has been developed and evaluated on rice (Oryza sativa) systems in several countries worldwide for increasing water use efficiency and reducing negative ...
Breeding strategies for identifying superior peach genotypes resistant to brown rot
(Elsevier, 2018-11-01)
A sustainable approach to control the incidence of brown rot in pre- and post-harvest management is to select genotypes with high contents of antioxidant compounds and tolerance to Monilinia laxa (Aderh. ...
Molecular and biochemical differences underlying the efficacy of lovastatin in preventing the onset of superficial scald in a susceptible and resistant Pyrus communis L. cultivar
(Elsevier, 2020-12-24)
The molecular and biochemical events underlying the onset of superficial scald in two pear cultivars with different susceptibility (‘Blanquilla’ and ‘Conference’) was investigated in fruit untreated and ...
Interpreting genotype-by-environment interaction for biomass production in hybrid poplars under short-rotation coppice in Mediterranean environments
(Wiley Open Access, 2015-10-20)
Understanding genotype 9 environment interaction (GEI) is crucial to optimize the deployment of clonal
material to field conditions in short-rotation coppice poplar plantations. Hybrid poplars are grown ...
