Implication of the antioxidant system in chilling injury tolerance in the red peel of grapefruit
(Elsevier, 2016)
Previous observations have indicated that the red peel areas of grapefruit with high lycopene
concentrations were more tolerant to CI than yellow peel areas (Lado et al., 2015a). Because lycopene is a
carotene with ...
Citrus plants exude proline and phytohormones under abiotic stress conditions
(Springer Verlag, 2017)
Key message
This article describes the root exudation of proline and phytohormones in citrus and their involvement in salt- and heat-stress responses.
Abstract
Plants are constantly releasing several compounds to the ...
Activation of Secondary Metabolism in Citrus Plants Is Associated to Sensitivity to Combined Drought and High Temperatures
(Frontiers Media, 2017-01)
Drought and heat stresses are two of the most frequent environmental factors that take place simultaneously in the field constraining global crop productivity. Metabolism reconfiguration is often behind the adaptation of ...
Facing Climate Change: Biotechnology of Iconic Mediterranean Woody Crops
(Frontiers Media, 2019-04-16)
The Mediterranean basin is especially sensitive to the adverse outcomes of climate
change and especially to variations in rainfall patterns and the incidence of extremely
high temperatures. These two concurring adverse ...
Plant phenotype demarcation using nontargeted LC-MS and GC-MS metabolite profiling
(American Chemical Society, 2009)
The characterization of the metabolome is a critical aspect in basic research and plant breeding. In this work, the putative application of metabolomics for phenotyping closely related genotypes has been tested. Crude ...
Efficacy of Neoseiulus californicus and Phytoseiulus persimilis in suppression of Tetranychus urticae in young clementine plants
(Springer Netherlands, 2010-04)
Tetranychus urticae is one of the most damaging tetranychid mites affecting clementine orchards in Spain, where natural control is insufficient. Furthermore, in clementine nurseries, tender foliage is highly susceptible ...
Compatibility of Phytoseiulus persimilis and Neoseiulus californicus (Acari: Phytoseiidae) with imidacloprid to manage clementine nursery pests
(Elsevier, 2013-01)
Biological control is not common in citrus nurseries where chemical control is prevalent. The systemic neonicotinoid imidacloprid applied as a drench is effective against three out of four key pests of young clementine ...
La metabolómica como herramienta para la evaluación fisiológica y nutricional en citricultura
(Ediciones y Promociones LAV, 2014)
La metabolómica tiene como objetivo el análisis de todos los metabolitos de bajo peso molecular presentes en un organismo, tejido o tipo celular concreto en un estadio de desarrollo dado y bajo unas condiciones ambientales ...
Umbrales económicos para la araña roja Tetranychus urticae (acari: Tetranychidae) en mandarino
(Ediciones y Promociones LAV, 2014)
Tetranychus urticae es una plaga clave en cítricos, especialmente en mandarina clementina. Se evaluó el daño de este ácaro sobre la producción de 24 árboles de clementino durante tres años consecutivos. Los árboles fueron ...
Systemic resistance in citrus to Tetranychus urticae induced by conspecifics is transmitted by grafting and mediated by mobile amino acids
(Oxford University PressSociety for Experimental Biology, 2016-09)
Recent research suggests that systemic signalling and communication between roots and leaves plays an important role in plant defence against herbivores. In the present study, we show that the oviposition of the two-spotted ...
