Sorption of carbon dioxide by chickpeas packaged in modified atmospheres
(Elsevier, 2019-06-06)
Modified atmospheres (MAs) with high CO2 concentrations are used for packaging several commodities with different purposes, including as an alternative method for pest control. When used in gas-tight ...
Plant Growth Stimulation and Root Colonization Potential of In Vivo versus In Vitro Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Inocula
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 2013-07)
Inoculum of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, with growing use in horticulture, is
produced mainly in two technically different cultivation systems: in vivo culture in
symbiosis with living host plants ...
Blooming under Mediterranean Climate: Estimating Cultivar-Specific Chill and Heat Requirements of Almond and Apple Trees Using a Statistical Approach
(MDPI, 2019-11-15)
Climate change, and specifically global temperature increase, is expected to alter plant
phenology. Temperate deciduous fruit trees have cultivar-specific chill and heat requirements
to break dormancy ...
Rainfall homogenizes while fruiting increases diversity of spore deposition in Mediterranean conditions
(Elsevier, 2019-08-20)
There is a lack of knowledge regarding the main factors modulating fungal spore deposition in forest ecosystems. We have described the local spatio-temporal dynamics of fungal spore deposition along a ...
Lignin biosynthesis as a key mechanism to repress Polystigma amygdalinum, the causal agent of the red leaf blotch disease in almond
(Elsevier, 2019-03-23)
The red leaf blotch (RLB) of almond, caused by the fungus Polystigma amygdalinum, is considered as one of the most important leaf diseases of this fruit tree. Differential cultivar susceptibility to the ...
Exploring the use of tertiary reclaimed water in dairy cattle production
(Elsevier, 2019-04-30)
The objective of this study was to explore through both in vitro and in vivo experiments the use of reclaimed urban wastewater in dairy cattle production systems with the aim of improving water efficiency ...
Insight into the truffle brûlé: tripartite interactions between the black truffle (Tuber melanosporum), holm oak (Quercus ilex) and arbuscular mycorrhizal plants
(Springer Verlag, 2019-11-30)
Tuber melanosporum is an ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungus from Mediterranean transitional ecosystems where ECM trees start to dominate among arbuscular-mycorrhizal (AM) shrubs and herbs (companion plants). ...
Tuta absoluta (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) success on common solanaceous species from California tomato production areas
(Oxford University Press, 2019-10-09)
Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) is a devastating pest of tomato that has invaded many regions of the world. To date, it has not been detected in North America, but the pest reached Costa Rica in 2014 and seriously ...
Temporal dynamics of soil fungal communities after partial and total clear-cutting in a managed Pinus sylvestris stand
(Elsevier, 2019-07-10)
Forest management aimed to maximize timber production might impact soil fungi, especially those symbiotically associated to tree roots. In this study, we analyse the temporal dynamics of soil fungi along ...
Sequencing of Tuta absoluta genome to develop SNP genotyping assays for species identification
(Springer Verlag, 2019-04-11)
Tuta absoluta is one of the most devastating pests of fresh market and processing tomatoes. Native to South America, its detection was confined to that continent until 2006 when it was identified in ...
