Evaluation of water-assisted UV-C light and its additive effect with peracetic acid for the inactivation of Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enterica and murine norovirus on whole and fresh-cut strawberries during shelf-life
(Wiley, 2022-04-04)
BACKGROUND: The purpose of the present study was to examine the inactivation of Salmonella enterica (50 ∼L; 109 CFU g−1),
Listeria monocytogenes (50 ∼L; 109 CFU g−1), and murine norovirus (MNV-1; 50 ...
Molecular Marker Technology for Crop Improvement
(MDPI, 2020-09-24)
Since the 1980s, agriculture and plant breeding have changed with the development of molecular marker technology. In recent decades, different types of molecular markers have been used for different ...
Multiple environmental benefits of alternate wetting and drying irrigation system with limited yield impact on European rice cultivation: The Ebre Delta case
(Elsevier, 2021-09-16)
The AWD is an irrigation technology for rice cultivation, consisting in implementing alternate draining and flooded periods over the growing season, that delivers multiple environmental benefits, such ...
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 ...
Improvement of Alternaria Leaf Blotch and Fruit Spot of Apple Control through the Management of Primary Inoculum
(MDPI, 2022-12-30)
Alternaria spp. is the causal agent of apple leaf blotch and fruit spot, diseases of recent appearance in Spain. The overwinter inoculum of Alternaria spp. is the source of primary infections in apple, ...
Genetic dissection of aroma biosynthesis in melon and its relationship with climacteric ripening
(Elsevier, 2021-03-05)
Aroma is an essential trait in melon fruit quality, but its complexity and genetic basis are still poorly understood. The aim of this study was the identification of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) ...
Genomic analyses provide insights into peach local adaptation and responses to climate change
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2021-03-09)
The environment has constantly shaped plant genomes, but the genetic bases underlying how plants adapt to environmental influences remain largely unknown. We constructed a high-density genomic variation ...
Geographical authentication of virgin olive oil by GC-MS sesquiterpene hydrocarbon fingerprint: Scaling down to the verification of PDO compliance
(Elsevier, 2022-04-26)
Nowadays, 144 Protected Designations of Origin (PDO) and Protected Geographical Indications (PGI) under the EU quality schemes correspond to extra virgin olive oil (EVOO). As endorsed by the EU Food ...
Biopreservation of fresh-cut pear using Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and effect on quality and volatile compounds
(Elsevier, 2017-09-18)
In recent years, the consumption of minimally processed fruit has increased. However, unfortunately,
these products could be an appropriate vehicle for the transmission of foodborne pathogens. In ...
Biocontrol efficacy of Meyerozyma guilliermondii LMA-Cp01 against post-harvest pathogens of fruits
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2023-09-01)
This work aimed to broaden the spectrum biocontrol activity of Meyerozyma guilliermondii LMA-Cp01. Inhibition of postharvest pathogens, viz., Alternaria alternata, Penicillium italicum, P. digitatum, ...
