Using plant growth‑promoting microorganisms (PGPMs) to improve plant development under in vitro culture conditions
(Springer, 2022-05-05)
Plant in vitro culture techniques are highly useful to obtain signifcant amounts of true-to-type and disease-free
plant materials. One of these techniques is clonal micropropagation which consists on ...
Physiological Study of Ethephon‑ and ACC‑Induced Fruitlet and Leaf Abscission in Peach Trees Under Diferent Conditions of Temperature
(Springer, 2022-12-16)
The efect of temperature on the ability of 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid (ethephon, ETH) and the 1-aminocyclopropane carboxylic acid (ACC) to induce ethylene production in fruitlets and abscission of ...
Ecological and evolutionary drivers of phenotypic and genetic variation in the European crabapple [Malus sylvestris (L.) Mill.], a wild relative of the cultivated apple
(Oxford University Press, 2023-05-06)
Background and Aims
Studying the relationship between phenotypic and genetic variation in populations distributed across environmental gradients can help us to understand the ecological and evolutionary ...
Evaluation of Fungicides and Application Strategies for the Management of the Red Leaf Blotch Disease of Almond
(MDPI, 2022-06-04)
Red leaf blotch (RLB) of almond, caused by Polystigma amygdalinum, is an important foliar
disease of this nut tree in the Mediterranean basin and especially in Spain. In recent years, the

Identification of a new allele of the Dw gene causing brachytic dwarfing in peach
(BioMed Central, 2018-06-14)
Objective
Peach brachytic dwarfism determined by Dwarf gene (Dw) is an undesired trait segregating in some peach breeding programs. Recently, a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mutation in the ...
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 ...
Adventitious regeneration from haploid melon (Cucumis melo L.) leaves as an approach to increase the frequency of diploid plants
(Springer, 2023-02-16)
An efficient process of adventitious regeneration from haploid plant leaves to increase the proportion of diploid plants of six elite melon lines ‘Védrantais’ French cultivar, ‘Piel de Sapo’ Spanish ...
A collection of European sweet cherry phenology data for assessing climate change
(Nature Research, 2016-12-06)
Professional and scientific networks built around the production of sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) led to the collection of phenology data for a wide range of cultivars grown in experimental sites ...
Determination of spray drift and buffer zones in 3D crops using the ISO standard and new LiDAR methodologies
(Elsevier, 2020-01-15)
Spray drift generated in the application of plant protection products in tree crops (3D crops) is a major source of environmental contamination, with repercussions for human health and the environment. ...
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 ...
