Molecular tracking of insect dispersal to verify arthropod predator movement from an alfalfa field to a peach orchard
(Elsevier, 2020-12-10)
Implementation of landscape approaches to conservation biological control programs requires the confirmation of putative sources that contribute to predator colonization of crops. Several predator species ...
Emerging thermal imaging techniques for seed quality evaluation: Principles and applications
(Elsevier, 2020-01-22)
Due to the massive progress occurred in the past few decades in imaging, electronics and computer
science, infrared thermal imaging technique has witnessed numerous technological advancement and
smart ...
GENOMES UNCOUPLED1-independent retrograde signaling targets the ethylene pathway to repress photomorphogenesis
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2020-11-19)
When germinating in the light, Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) seedlings undergo photomorphogenic development, characterized by short hypocotyls, greening, and expanded cotyledons. Stressed chloroplasts ...
A retrospective study of porcine epidemic diarrhoea virus (PEDV) reveals the presence of swine enteric coronavirus (SeCoV) since 1993 and the recent introduction of a recombinant PEDV‐SeCoV in Spain
(Wiley, 2020-06-08)
A retrospective evaluation of PEDV positive samples recovered in Spain before and after the re‐emergence of this coronavirus in several European countries was carried out. We described for the first ...
Quantitation of endogenous amount of ethanol, methanol and acetaldehyde in ripe fruits of different Spanish olive varieties
(Wiley, 2020-02-25)
BACKGROUND The use of healthy olives and their good management along the production process are necessary to obtain the best quality virgin olive oils. One parameter related to the health of the olives ...
Activation of pro- and anti-inflammatory responses in lung tissue injury during the acute phase of PRRSV-1 infection with the virulent strain Lena
(Elsevier, 2020-06-02)
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) plays a key role in porcine respiratory disease complex modulating the host immune response and favouring secondary bacterial infections. ...
Metabolome and proteome changes in skeletal muscle and blood of pre-weaning calves fed leucine and threonine supplemented diets
(Elsevier, 2020-02-03)
In pre-weaning calves, both leucine and threonine play important roles in growth and muscle metabolism. In this study, metabolomics, proteomics and clinical chemistry were used to assess the effects of ...
Fine mapping of the peach pollen sterility gene (Ps/ps) and detection of markers for marker-assisted selection
(Springer, 2020-06-10)
In peach, pollen sterility, expressed as absence of pollen in the anthers, segregates as an undesired trait in breeding programs. Pollen fertility screening in progenies is not a common practice mainly ...
Oviposition behavior of the mirid Macrolophus pygmaeus under risk of intraguild predation and cannibalism
(Wiley, 2020-01-09)
Zoophytophagous mirid species, that feed and develop either on prey or plant resources, are often found simultaneously on the same host. Hence, these species can engage in both intraguild predation and ...
Solar drying in the vineyard: a sustainable technology for the recovery of nutrients from winery organic waste
(IWA Publishing, 2020-07-09)
The present study describes a pilot-scale experimental validation of a forced-convection greenhouse solar dryer, combined with a biofilter, for controlled atmospheric emissions. This set-up was applied ...
