Subzero Temperature Storage to Preserve the Quality Attributes of Veiled Virgin Olive Oil
(MDPI, 2023-03-13)
Unfiltered olive oils (UO) have gained popularity in the global market, but they lose their quality characteristics faster than filtered oils (FO). In this work, refrigeration and freezing temperatures ...
Agronomical and Physiological Behavior of Spanish Hazelnut Selection “Negret-N9” Grafted on Non-suckering Rootstocks
(Frontiers Media, 2022-02-01)
“Negret” is the most widely planted hazelnut cultivar in Northeastern Spain, where it is highly appreciated by the local kernel marked for its favorable nut traits. Its main disadvantages are the high ...
The apple REFPOP—a reference population for genomics-assisted breeding in apple
(Springer Nature, 2020-11-01)
Breeding of apple is a long-term and costly process due to the time and space requirements for screening selection candidates. Genomics-assisted breeding utilizes genomic and phenotypic information ...
Mediterranean Green Roof Simulation in Caldes de Montbui (Barcelona): Thermal and Hydrological Performance Test of Frankenia laevis L., Dymondia margaretae Compton and Iris lutescens Lam
(MDPI, 2018-12-05)
Green roofs provide a number of environmental advantages like increasing urban
biodiversity, reducing pollution, easing burdens on drainage systems, and lowering energy costs
thanks to thermal insulation. ...
The role of rootstocks for grape growing adaptation to climate change. Meta-analysis of the research conducted in Spanish viticulture
(International Viticulture and Enology Society (IVES), 2023-05-30)
Rootstock election is one of the key decisions when designing a vineyard. Although the research performed to determine the effect they induce in the behaviour of scion varieties is not scarce, it is not ...

Resynthesis: Marker-Based Partial Reconstruction of Elite Genotypes in Clonally-Reproducing Plant Species
(Frontiers Media, 2020-08-07)
We propose a method for marker-based selection of cultivars of clonally-reproducing plant species which keeps the basic genetic architecture of a top-performing cultivar (usually a partly heterozygous ...
A targeted foodomic approach to assess differences in extra virgin olive oils: Effects of storage, agronomic and technological factors
(Elsevier, 2023-09-20)
Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) quality and composition are mainly affected by genetics, agronomic and technological parameters, undergoing further modifications during storage. In this work, a chemometric ...
