Crop diversification and digestate application effect on the productivity and efficiency of irrigated winter crop systems
(Elsevier, 2023-05-23)
Irrigated winter crops can reduce input demands when compared with irrigated summer cropping systems in the Mediterranean area. The sustainability of these systems can be further improved resorting to ...
Differential contribution of the two major polygalacturonases from Penicillium digitatum to virulence towards citrus fruit
(Elsevier, 2018-05-31)
The fungus Penicillium digitatum is the causal agent of the citrus green mould, the major postharvest diseases of citrus fruit. Lesions on the surface of infected fruits first appear as soft areas around ...

Endogenous CO2 Overpressure Effect on Higher Alcohols Metabolism during Sparkling Wine Production
(MDPI, 2023-06-22)
Higher alcohols produced by yeast during the fermentation of sparkling wine must have the greatest impact on the smell and taste of wine. At present, the metabolic response to methanol and higher alcohols ...
Composition and properties of the polyphenolic extracts obtained from industrial plum pomaces
(Elsevier, 2014-12-10)
The polyphenol composition of purified extracts obtained from plum pomace gathered from production lines of a modern fruit transformation plant was characterized. The extraction of polyphenols from ...
Natural plant extracts as inhibitors of potato polyphenol oxidase: The green tea case study
(Elsevier, 2021-09-18)
Natural plant extracts have emerged as a potential alternative to sulphites in minimally processed potatoes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the inhibitory capacity of various plant extracts on ...
Agricultural policies against invasive species generate contrasting outcomes for climate change mitigation and biodiversity conservation
(The Royal Society, 2022-10-19)
Direct consequences of biological invasions on biodiversity and the environment have been largely documented. Yet collateral indirect effects mediated by changes in agri-environmental policies aimed at ...
Determining a robust indirect measurement of leaf area index in California vineyards for validating remote sensing-based retrievals
(Springer Verlag, 2018-12-05)
Accurate ground-based measurements of leaf area index (LAI) are needed for validation of remote sensing-based retrievals used in models estimating plant water use, stress, carbon assimilation and other ...
