Inheritance and QTL analysis of chilling and heat requirements for flowering in an interspecific almond x peach (Texas x Earlygold) F2 population
(Springer Verlag, 2020-03-04)Blooming in temperate fruit species is triggered by chilling and heat requirements (CR and HR), with a wide range of requirements within the same species. CR for flower bud dormancy release has become ... -
Inheritance of esters and other volatile compounds responsible for the fruity aroma in strawberry
(Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022-08-12)Cultivated strawberry, Fragaria × ananassa, has a complex aroma due to the presence of more than 350 volatile organic compounds (VOCs). However, a mixture of only 19 compounds, called Key Volatile ... -
Inheritance of Fruit Red-Flesh Patterns in Peach
(Plants, 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 ... -
Inheritance of spheroid body and plastid in the raphid diatom Epithemia (Bacillariophyta) during sexual reproduction
(Phycologia, 2021-04-21)Diatoms belonging to the family Epithemiaceae have endosymbiont ‘spheroid bodies’, which have received attention as a model to provide new insights into the early stages of organelle evolution. Uniparental ... -
Inhibition of Biogenic Amines Formation in Fermented Foods by the Addition of Cava Lees
(Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022-01-28)Food safety can be compromised by some bioactive compounds such as biogenic amines that can be specially found in fermented foods due to the bacterial decarboxylation of some amino acids by fermentative ... -
Initial characterisation of Metarhizium anisopliae CPMA1502 for the development of a biopesticide against the oil palm fruit scraper Demotispa neivai (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)
(Journal of Oil Palm Research, 2022-12-09)Entomopathogenic fungi are key components of biological pest control programs. Among these, Metarhizium anisopliae is one of the best-studied and has been demonstrated to be particularly effective against ... -
Innovations in spray drying technology for liquid food processing: Design, mechanisms, and potential for application
(Applied Food Research, 2023-12-20)Spray drying is a well-established approach to converting liquid food into powder. This review discusses four types of spray drying techniques currently being used for that purpose, namely: pulse ... -
Innovative strategies to enhance the sensory quality of dry fermented sausages containing lactic ingredients by the addition of exogenous enzymes
(Food Science and Technology International, 2021-06-09)This study investigated the impact of the addition of exogenous enzymes (Accelerzyme CPG, Debitrase DBP20) or cellular preparations (FlavoGard), traditionally used in the cheese industry, to accelerate ... -
Innovative vs classical methods for drying heterotrophic Chlorella vulgaris: Impact on protein quality and sensory properties
(Food Research International, 2024-02-18)Drying is a necessary step in the microalgae production chain to reduce microbial load and oxidative degradation of the end product. Depending on the differences in applied temperature and treatment ... -
Inoculation of in vitro cultures with rhizosphere microorganisms improve plant development and acclimatization during immature embryo rescue in nectarine and pear breeding programs
(Scientia Horticulturae, 2020-08-14)In the present study, two fungi Cladosporium ramotenellum strain PGP02 and Phoma spp. strain PGP03 and the bacterium Pseudomonas oryzihabitans PGP01 were isolated from Pyrus and Prunus in vitro rescued ... -
Inoculum and infection dynamics of Polystigma amygdalinum in almond orchards in Spain
(Plant Disease, 2020-02-20)Red leaf blotch (RLB) disease of almond, caused by Polystigma amygdalinum, is an important foliar disease in most production regions of the Mediterranean basin and the Middle East because severe infections ... -
Insect glycerol transporters evolved by functional co-option and gene replacement
(Nature Communications, 2015-07-17)Transmembrane glycerol transport is typically facilitated by aquaglyceroporins in Prokaryota and Eukaryota. In holometabolan insects however, aquaglyceroporins are absent, yet several species possess ... -
