(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria, 2012-01-18)
The California red scale, Aonidiella aurantii (Maskell), was first detected in citrus groves in Catalonia, Northern Spain, in
2000, and has since spread slowly and irregularly. New foci of infestation ...
Temporal response to drought stress in several Prunus rootstocks and wild species
(MDPI, 2020-09-14)
Prunus species are important crops in temperate regions. In these regions, drought periods are predicted to occur more frequently due to climate change. In this sense, to reduce the impact of climate ...
Infection risk of Monilinia fructicola on stone fruit during cold storage and immersion in the dump tank
(Elsevier, 2019-06-28)
Monilinia spp. is the main pathogen responsible for postharvest losses of stone fruit. Several studies have examined the conditions for Monilinia spp. infection in the field, but very limited information ...
Looking behind occlusions: A study on amodal segmentation for robust on-tree apple fruit size estimation
(Elsevier, 2023-04-21)
The detection and sizing of fruits with computer vision methods is of interest because it provides relevant information to improve the management of orchard farming. However, the presence of partially ...
Similar Bacterial Communities among Different Populations of a Newly Emerging Invasive Species, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick)
(MDPI, 2022-03-03)
Microorganisms in the guts of insects enhance the adaptability of their hosts with different lifestyles, or those that live in different habitats. Tuta absoluta is an invasive pest that is a serious ...

A domestication-associated gene, CsLH, encodes a phytochrome B protein that regulates hypocotyl elongation in cucumber
(Springer, 2021-06-16)
Plant height is an important agronomic trait; tall plants are prone to collapse (lodging) and are unsuitable for high-density planting (Li et al., 2020). During the Green Revolution, a multitude of genes ...
A proposal of nitrogen balance in a very high density olive orchard
(El Oued University, 2016-05-01)
The nitrogen (N) balance was estimated in a very high density olive orchard in north- east of Spain, in order to calculate the inputs and outputs of N related to tree response and soil nitrogen availability. ...
