A unique race of the wheat stem rust pathogen with virulence on Sr31 identified in Spain and reaction of wheat and durum cultivars to this race
(Wiley, 2022-01-28)
Wheat stem rust, caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici, is a re-emerging disease, posing a threat to wheat production. In Spain, stem rust has been rarely detected since the 1970s, but infection ...
Parameterization of Soil Hydraulic Parameters for HYDRUS-3D Simulation of Soil Water Dynamics in a Drip-Irrigated Orchard
(MDPI, 2020-06-28)
Although surface drip irrigation allows an efficient use of water in agriculture, the heterogeneous distribution of soil water complicates its optimal usage. Mathematical models can be used to simulate ...
Efect of freezing, fast‑freezing by liquid nitrogen or refrigeration to preserve premium extra virgin olive oil during storage
(Springer, 2022-07-09)
During storage, premium extra virgin olive oils (PEVOO), which are oils of exceptional sensory quality, may lose the organoleptic characteristics that define them. This study assessed the effect of ...
Effect of Hopper Loading on the Formation of Alkyl Alcohols in Olive Fruits and Its Relationship with Sensory Quality Losses of Virgin Olive Oil
(MDPI, 2023-07-07)
The storage of olives in large hoppers is a widespread practice in oil mills, but these large
volumes and their unloading can cause a physical deterioration of the olives that will affect the quality
of ...
Yield and profitability of ‘Conference’ pear in five training systems in North East of Spain
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA), 2017-12-21)
Training systems are key to manage the tree canopy to take advantage of the tree productivity potential. Assessment of yearly cropping, labor requirements, fruit quality, and orchard profitability were ...
Efficacy mechanisms research progress of the active components in the characteristic woody edible oils
(Wiley, 2023-10-10)
Woody edible oils are a type of vegetable oil. Woody edible oils like olive oil have greater quantities of unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs), particularly essential FAs, as well as vitamin E, phytosterols, ...
Fungal bioconversion of brewery by-products: assessment of fatty acids and sterols profiles
(Codon Publications, 2022-11-11)
Waste management of brewery by-products is economically and environmentally problematic. In the frame of bio-recycling, this study aims to investigate the bioconversion of brewery by-products by filamentous ...
Ethylene biosynthesis and response factors are differentially modulated during the interaction of peach petals with Monilinia laxa or Monilinia fructicola
(Elsevier, 2020-07-13)
Monilinia spp. may infect stone fruit at any growth stage, although susceptibility to brown rot depends on both host properties and climatological conditions. This said, no studies deciphering the host ...
Metabolomic analyses of highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) cultivars revealed mechanisms of resistance to aluminum toxicity
(Elsevier, 2020-12-02)
Aluminum (Al) is an important factor that limits plant growth under acidic soil conditions. However, several
plant species developed distinct mechanisms that limit the damage caused by high Al ...
Use of wood and cork in biofilters for the simultaneous removal of nitrates and pesticides from groundwater
(Elsevier, 2022-12-07)
About 13% and 7% of monitored groundwater stations in Europe exceed the permitted levels of nitrates (50 mg NO3− L−1) or pesticides (0.1 μg L−1), respectively. Although slow sand filtration can remove ...
