Cross-talk between gibberellins and salicylic acid in early stress responses in Arabidopsis thaliana seeds
Landes Bioscience (2009)Salicylic acid (SA) is a plant hormone mainly associated with the induction of defense mechanism in plants, although in the last years there is increasing evidence on the role of SA in plant responses to abiotic stress. ... -
Are the palms Washingtonia filifera and Chamaerops humilis suitable hosts for the red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Col. Curculionidae)?
Blackwell Verlag GmbH (2009)The red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) (Coleoptera, Curculionidae), is a widely distributed pest which has recently become the major pest of palms in the Mediterranean Basin. This weevil has been recorded ... -
Drought tolerance in Arabidopsis is controlled by the OCP3 disease resistance regulator
Wiley (2009)Water scarcity and corresponding abiotic drought stress is one of the most important factors limiting plant performance and yield. In addition, plant productivity is severely compromised worldwide by infection with microbial ... -
The ATAF1 transcription factor: At the convergence point of ABA-dependent plant defense against biotic and abiotic stresses
Nature Publishing Group (2009)Because of their sessile lifestyle, plants have evolved sophisticated ways of coping with the various biotic and abiotic stresses they can encounter during their life. There is increasing evidence that transcription ... -
Los aceites minerales pueden ser una alternativa al uso de acaricidas para el control de araña roja
Ediciones y Promociones LAV (2009)Los aceites minerales pueden ser una alternativa muy interesante a los acaricidas para el control de la araña roja, Tetranychus urticae Koch, una plaga que actualmente está produciendo importantes daños en el cultivo ... -
Belowground ABA boosts aboveground production of DIMBOA and primes induction of chlorogenic acid in maize
Landes Bioscience (2009)Plants are important mediators between above- and below- ground herbivores. Consequently, interactions between root and shoot defenses can have far-reaching impacts on entire food webs. We recently reported that infestation ... -
Evaluation of the efficacy of Steinernema carpocapsae against the Red Palm Weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus in Phoenix canariensis
Springer Verlag (2009)The red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) (Coleoptera, Curculionidae), is an important pest of palms. It has recently colonized the Mediterranean Basin, where it is a serious problem on ornamental Phoenix ... -
Control químico de Pezothrips Kellyanus, nueva plaga de los cítricos, y sus efectos sobre la entomofauna auxiliar
Ediciones y Promociones LAV (2009)Pezothrips kellyanus (Bagnall) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) es una nueva plaga para los cítricos en España. Este trips se alimenta de los frutos recién formados produciendo una escarificación circular alrededor del peciolo ... -
Efecto del manejo de la cubierta vegetal en el control biológico de Tetranychus Urticae (Acari: Prostigmata) en Clementino
Ediciones y Promociones LAV (2009)Tetranychus urticae ocasiona manchas en fruto que son especialmente temidas en mandarinas. Puesto que esta fruta se destina mayoritariamente al consumo en fresco, su valor comercial puede verse seriamente afectado. Como ... -
The use of a calcium carbonate residue from the stone industry in manufacturing of ceramic tile bodies
Elsevier (2009)The substitution of clayey raw materials for other wastes, in this case sludge rich in calcium carbonate, in the production of traditional ceramics could give rise into cost savings due to the utilisation and recycling of ... -
The use of sewage sludge and marble residues in the manufacture of ceramic tile bodies
Elsevier (2009)The substitution of clayey raw materials for other wastes, in this case urban sewage sludge and marble sludge, in the production of traditional ceramics could be cost effective from the utilisation and recycling of these ... -
Mineralogy and firing transformations of Permo-Triassic clays used in the manufacturing of ceramic tile bodies
Elsevier (2009)This study is focussed on the behaviour of Permo-Triassic ceramic clays from the area around Castellon (Spain) having a large ceramic industry. The aim of this work is to establish the mineralogical composition of ... -
Underivatized polyamine analysis in plant samples by ion pair LC coupled with electrospray tandem mass spectrometry
Elsevier (2009)Polyamines are key regulators of cell development and many plant responses to environmental challenges, however, their functions still remain unclear in complex interactions with other hormones and in biotic or abiotic ... -
A novel in vitro tissue culture approach to study salt stress responses in citrus
Springer Verlag (2009)In citrus, a major crop throughout the world, growth and yield are seriously affected by salinity. Different approaches, including agronomical, physiological and molecular methods, have been used to address this problem. ... -
Evidence for a Role of Gibberellins in Salicylic Acid-Modulated Early Plant Responses to Abiotic Stress in Arabidopsis Seeds
American Society of Plant Biologists (2009)Exogenous application of gibberellic acid (GA3) was able to reverse the inhibitory effect of salt, oxidative, and heat stresses in the germination and seedling establishment of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), this ... -
Signal signature of aboveground-induced resistance upon belowground herbivory in maize
Wiley (2009)Plants activate local and systemic defence mechanisms upon exposure to stress. This innate immune response is partially regulated by plant hormones, and involves the accumulation of defensive metabolites. Although local ... -
Membrane transporters and carbon metabolism implicated in chloride homeostasis differentiate salt stress responses in tolerant and sensitive Citrus rootstocks
Springer-Verlag (2009)Salinity tolerance in Citrus is strongly related to leaf chloride accumulation. Both chloride homeostasis and specific genetic responses to Cl− toxicity are issues scarcely investigated in plants. To discriminate the ... -
Morphology and Development of the Immature Stages of Brachyufens osborni (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae), an Egg Parasitoid of Broad-Nosed Weevil Species (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
Entomological Society of America (2009)The external morphology and development of the immature stages of Brachyufens osborni (Dozier) (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae), a Nearctic solitary endoparasitoid of the eggs of Pachnaeus spp. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), ... -
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 ... -
