Unravelling the responses of different apple varieties to water constraints by continuous field thermal monitoring
(Elsevier, 2022-03-03)
This research aimed at analyzing the response of apple tree varieties subjected to soil water deficit and atmospheric drought in a field phenotyping platform located in the Mediterranean area. The main ...
Modeling impacts of climate change on the water needs and growing cycle of crops in three Mediterranean basins
(Elsevier, 2021-02-20)
In this study, the suitability of major crops currently growing in three case study basins in Catalonia (NE Spain) was assessed for the first half of the 21st century. For this purpose, an estimation ...
Impact of invasive bees on plant-pollinator interactions and reproductive success of plant species in mixed Nothofagus antarctica forests
(Springer, 2020-07-30)
Invasive social bees can alter plant-pollinator interactions with detrimental effects on both partners. However, most studies have focused on one invasive bee species, while the interactions among two ...
Implementing the livelihood resilience framework: An indicator-based model for assessing mountain pastoral farming systems
(Elsevier, 2022-03-25)
Ongoing decreases in family farms and livestock numbers in European mountain areas are linked to
multiple interconnected challenges. The continuity of such farms concerns society at large since they ...
Regulation of climacteric fruit ripening in melon: recent advances and future challenges
(Oxford University Press ;Society for Experimental Biology, 2023-07-03)
Fruit ripening is a complex and highly regulated process where tomato and strawberry have been the model species classically used for studying climacteric and non-climacteric fleshy fruit ripening types, ...
CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing uncovers the roles of CONSTITUTIVE TRIPLE RESPONSE 1 and REPRESSOR OF SILENCING 1 in melon fruit ripening and epigenetic regulation
(Oxford University Press, 2022-04-08)
Melon (Cucumis melo) has emerged as an alternative model to tomato for studying fruit ripening due to the coexistence of climacteric and non-climacteric varieties. Previous characterization of a major ...
Diversity, functionality, and resilience under increasing harvesting intensities in woodlands of northern Patagonia
(Elsevier, 2020-07-03)
Sustainable forest management relies on the understanding of biodiversity response to disturbance and the ecological resilience of the system. The dynamic equilibrium hypothesis (DEM) predicts that site ...
Removing non-crop flowers within orchards promotes the decline of pollinators, not their conservation: A comment on McDougall et al. (2021)
(Wiley, 2023-05-17)
1. Abundant and diverse floral resources are needed for the preservation of pollinator populations and the services they provide to human societies. However, pollinators are negatively affected by several ...
Cultivar and tissue-specific changes of abscisic acid, its catabolites and individual sugars during postharvest handling of flat peaches (Prunus persica cv. platycarpa)
(Elsevier, 2021-08-20)
The role of abscisic acid (ABA) during postharvest ripening of peaches remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the temporal and tissue-specific changes in ABA, and ABA catabolites, of two flat ...
Development of a multiprimer metabarcoding approach to understanding trophic interactions in agroecosystems
(Wiley, 2021-12-14)
To understand trophic interactions and the precise ecological role of each predatory species, it is important to know which arthropod and plant resources are used by generalist predators in agroecosystems. ...
