Discovering consensus genomic regions in wheat for root-related traits by QTL meta-analysis
(Nature Research, 2019-07-22)
Root system architecture is crucial for wheat adaptation to drought stress, but phenotyping for root traits in breeding programmes is difficult and time-consuming owing to the belowground characteristics ...
Impact Of Chill And Heat Exposures Under Diverse Climatic Conditions On Peach And Nectarine Flowering Phenology
(MDPI, 2023-01-29)
The present study aims to generalize cultivar-specific tree phenology responses to winter and spring temperatures and assess the effectiveness of the Tabuenca test and various chill and heat accumulation ...
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 ...
Preserving habitat quality at local and landscape scales increases wild bee diversity in intensive farming systems
(Elsevier Masson, 2019-02-13)
Biological diversity is influenced by many environmental factors, which can act either at a local scale (e.g. quality and quantity of feeding and nesting resources, habitat type) or at a landscape scale ...
Dissecting the old Mediterranean durum wheat genetic architecture for phenology, biomass and yield formation by association mapping and QTL meta-analysis
(Public Library of Science, 2017-05-25)
Association mapping was used to identify genome regions affecting yield formation, crop phenology and crop biomass in a collection of 172 durum wheat landraces representative of the genetic diversity ...
Integrated QTL detection for key breeding traits in multiple peach progenies
(BMC, 2017-06-06)
Background: Peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) is a major temperate fruit crop with an intense breeding activity.Breeding is facilitated by knowledge of the inheritance of the key traits that are often ...
Effects of long-term controlled atmosphere storage, minimal processing, and packaging on quality attributes of calçots (Allium cepa L.)
(SAGE Publications, 2019-12-23)
Calçots are the immature floral stems of the second-year onion (Allium cepa L.) resprouts. Modified atmosphere packaging or vacuum packaging are suitable alternatives to preserve fresh-cut vegetables. ...
Cultivar differences in the hormonal crosstalk regulating apple fruit development and ripening: relationship with flavour components and postharvest susceptibility to Penicillium expansum
(Elsevier, 2023-08-17)
The hormonal interplay during the on-tree development and ripening of three apple cultivars with known differences in their postharvest ripening patterns was studied, at the biochemical and targeted ...
Genetic Dissection of the Seminal Root System Architecture in Mediterranean Durum Wheat Landraces by Genome-Wide Association Study
(MDPI, 2019-07-09)
Roots are crucial for adaptation to drought stress. However, phenotyping root systems
is a difficult and time-consuming task due to the special feature of the traits in the process of being
analyzed. ...
Carbon stocks and changes in biomass of Mediterranean woody crops over a six-year period in NE Spain
(Springer, 2022-09-15)
Carbon sequestration and storage in biomass is one of the most important measures to mitigate climate change. Mediterranean woody crops can sequestrate carbon in the biomass of their permanent structures ...
