Dairy cattle slurry fertilization management in an intensive Mediterranean agricultural system to sustain soil quality while enhancing rapeseed nutritional value
(Elsevier, 2020-08-14)
Animal excreta are commonly recycled as fertilizers, although attention should be given to environmental impacts. Legislation must also be adapted to new research findings. The framework of this study ...
Effectiveness landscape of crop pollinator assemblages: Implications to pollination service management
(Elsevier, 2023-02-22)
There is a growing consensus that the world is facing a pollination crisis. To mitigate crop pollination deficits, some management strategies include the massive introduction of managed bee species, yet ...
From landraces to improved cultivars: Assessment of genetic diversity and population structure of Mediterranean wheat using SNP markers
(Public Library of Science, 2019-07-15)
Assessment of genetic diversity and population structure in crops is essential for breeding and germplasm conservation. A collection of 354 bread wheat genotypes, including Mediterranean landraces and ...
Field Plant Monitoring from Macro to Micro Scale: Feasibility and Validation of Combined Field Monitoring Approaches from Remote to in Vivo to Cope with Drought Stress in Tomato
(MDPI, 2023-11-14)
Monitoring plant growth and development during cultivation to optimize resource use efficiency is crucial to achieve an increased sustainability of agriculture systems and ensure food security. In this ...
Unravelling consensus genomic regions conferring leaf rust resistance in wheat via meta-QTL analysis
(Wiley Open Access, 2021-12-17)
Leaf rust, caused by the fungus Puccinia triticina Erikss (Pt), is a destructive disease affecting wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and a threat to food security. Developing resistant cultivars represents ...
Uncovering the genetic basis for quality traits in the Mediterranean old wheat germplasm and phenotypic and genomic prediction assessment by cross-validation test
(Frontiers Media, 2023-01-27)
The release of new wheat varieties is based on two main characteristics, grain yield and quality, to meet the consumer’s demand. Identifying the genetic architecture for yield and key quality traits has ...
Sustainability Assessment after Twenty Years of Sewage Sludge Application on Calcareous Soil Following N or P Criterion
(MDPI, 2024-03-11)
Sewage sludge is a valuable source of nutrients when applied to the soil. Research on its agricultural use has been focused on chemical parameters to prevent heavy metal buildup. However, soil quality ...
Cambios en la presencia de especies de oribátidos (Acarina, Oribatida) asociados a la fertilización con purín porcino en clima Mediterráneo seco
(AIDA, 2024-03-01)
En sistemas agrícolas de secano, la sostenibilidad de las prácticas de fertilización con productos de origen orgánico requiere de indicadores que avalen su idoneidad. Los ácaros oribátidos, por su ciclo ...
