Biocontrol potential of Ampelomyces quisqualis strain CPA-9 against powdery mildew: Conidia production in liquid medium and efficacy on zucchini leaves
(Elsevier, 2020-03-13)
Ampelomyces quisqualis has been reported to be a promising biocontrol agent (BCA) against powdery mildew, and it has been commercialised as AQ10 Biofungicide®. However, isolated strains showed inconsistent ...
Elucidating the involvement of ethylene and oxidative stress during on- and off-tree ripening of two pear cultivars with different ripening patterns
(Elsevier, 2020-08-21)
Scarce information is available about the ripening process of European pears attached and detached from the tree. Accordingly, this study aimed to investigate the physiological and biochemical processes ...
Exploring thermosonication as non-chemical disinfection technology for strawberries
(Springer, 2021-11-27)
The scope of this work was to study the efcacy of the combination of sonication at 35 or 130 kHz with three temperature treatments: 20, 50 and 55 ºC, on the population of artifcially inoculated Listeria ...
The biological potential hidden in inclusion bodies
(MDPI, 2020-02-15)
Inclusion bodies (IBs) are protein nanoclusters obtained during recombinant protein production processes, and several studies have demonstrated their potential as biomaterials for therapeutic protein ...

Modeling impacts of climate change on the water needs and growing cycle of crops in three Mediterranean basins
(Elsevier, 2021-02-20)
In this study, the suitability of major crops currently growing in three case study basins in Catalonia (NE Spain) was assessed for the first half of the 21st century. For this purpose, an estimation ...
Pedigree analysis of 220 almond genotypes reveals two world mainstream breeding lines based on only three different cultivars
(Springer Nature, 2021-01-01)
Loss of genetic variability is an increasing challenge in tree breeding programs due to the repeated use of a reduced number of founder genotypes. However, in almond, little is known about the genetic ...
