Metabolomics of Disease Resistance in Crops
(Horizon Scientific Press, 2016)
Plants are continuously exposed to the attack of invasive microorganisms, such as fungi
or bacteria, and also viruses. To fight these attackers, plants develop different metabolic
and genetic responses whose final ...
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 ...
Folivory elicits a strong defense reaction in Catharanthus roseus: metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses reveal distinct local and systemic responses
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
Plants deploy distinct secondary metabolisms to cope with environment pressure and to face bio-aggressors notably through the production of biologically active alkaloids. This metabolism-type is particularly elaborated in ...
Effect of different substrates for organic agriculture in seedling development of traditional species of Solanaceae
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA), 2016)
Sowing of seedlings is one of the most critical processes on the establishment of a crop, since the future development of the plant depends largely on its health when is planted on the field. Moreover, organic agriculture ...
Protocol for Increasing Carotenoid Levels in the Roots of Citrus Plants
(Bio-protocol LLC, 2016)
Carotenoids in plants play several key functions such as acting as light-harvesters, antioxidants (Lado et al., 2016) or being precursors of strigolactones, abscisic acid, volatiles and other signaling compounds (Arbona ...
Pest categorisation of potato virus Y (non-EU isolates)
(European Food Safety AuthorityWiley, 2020-01-09)
Following a request from the EU Commission, the Panel on Plant Health has addressed the pest
categorisation of non-EU isolates of potato virus Y (PVY). The information currently available on
geographical distribution, ...
Effect of pollen provision on life-history parameters of phytoseiid predators under hot and dry environmental conditions
(Wiley, 2020-12-01)
Biological control can be severely disrupted under climate change conditions. This is the case of the spider mite Tetranychus urticae in Spanish citrus orchards, where the omnivorous phytoseiid Euseius stipulatus, the most ...
Hormonal and metabolic responses of Mexican lime plants to CTV infection
(Elsevier, 2019-05-15)
Plant viral infections alter gene expression and metabolism in infected host. To study the molecular responses of Mexican lime to CTV infection, an analysis of plant metabolome in response to infection with severe (T318) ...
Oxylipin mediated stress response of a miraculin-like protease inhibitor in Hexanoic acid primed eggplant plants infested by Colorado potato beetle
(Elsevier, 2017-08)
Insect-plant interactions are governed by a complex equilibrium between the mechanisms through which plant recognize insect attack and orchestrate downstream signaling events that trigger plant defense responses, and the ...
Pest categorisation of Ips typographus
(Wiley, 2017-07-06)
The Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of the eight-toothed spruce bark beetle,
Ips typographus L. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae), for the EU. I. typographus is a well-defined
and distinguishable ...
