(Elsevier, 2019-08-07)
A field experiment with 31 rootstocks representing a genetically diverse group of rootstocks featuring ‘Honeycrisp’ as the scion was planted in 2010 at Geneva, NY USA. Rootstocks included three from the ...
Are geographical indication products fostering public goods? Some evidence from Europe
(MDPI, 2019-01-08)
Within the framework of multifunctional conceptualisation, the authors have investigated the level of public goods embedded in Agri-food geographical indication products. Moving from the concept of the ...
The Efficacy of Four Sunburn Mitigation Strategies and Their Effects on Yield, Fruit Quality, and Economic Performance of Honeycrisp Cv. Apples under Eastern New York (USA) Climatic Conditions
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-04-22)
Sunburn is a serious economic problem in practically all apple-growing regions of the world. Losses of apple fruit due to sunburn can range from 10% as high as 50%. Several years ago, this problem started ...
Phenotypic and molecular selection of a superior Solanum pennellii introgression sub-line suitable for improving quality traits of cultivated tomatoes
(Frontiers Media, 2019-02-22)
The Solanum pennellii Introgression Line (IL) population can be exploited to identify favorable alleles that can improve yield and fruit quality traits in commercial tomato varieties. Over the past few ...
Environmental accounting of closed-loop maize production scenarios: Manure as fertilizer and inclusion of catch crops
(Elsevier, 2019-04-09)
The agri-food sector has moved towards a more linear production economy, partly caused by worldwide food demand. One clear example is the intensification of livestock production, with consequent ...
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 ...
Double-sided battle: The role of ethylene during Monilinia spp. infection in peach at different phenological stages
(Elsevier, 2019-10-02)
Controversy exists on whether ethylene is involved in determining fruit resistance or susceptibility against biotic stress. In this work, the hypothesis that ethylene biosynthesis in peaches at different ...
