Expression of miR159 Is Altered in Tomato Plants Undergoing Drought Stress
(MDPI, 2019)
In a scenario of global climate change, water scarcity is a major threat for agriculture, severely
limiting crop yields. Therefore, alternatives are urgently needed for improving plant adaptation
to drought stress. Among ...

Elucidating the mechanism of action of copper heptagluconate on the plant immune system against Pseudomonas syringae in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L)
(Wiley, 2018)
BACKGROUND: Phytopathogenic problems caused by the bacterial pathogenPseudomonas syringaein tomato are becomingmore serious due to the emergence of strains resistant to classical pesticides. This has led to research into ...
Plant feeding by Nesidiocoris tenuis: Quantifying its behavioral and mechanical components
(Elsevier, 2021-01)
Zoophytophagous predators play an important, though sometimes controversial, role in pest management programs in different crops. In tomato crops, damage caused by phytophagy of the mirid Nesidiocoris tenuis has mainly ...
Plant defense responses triggered by phytoseiid predatory mites (Mesostigmata: Phytoseiidae) are species-specific, depend on plant genotype and may not be related to direct plant feeding
(SpringerInternational Organization for Biological Control, 2021-01-25)
Zoophytophagous arthropods can elicit plant defense responses affecting potential prey beyond predation. Phytophagy prevails as the main trigger for these responses, as in the case of Euseius stipulatus (Athias-Henriot) ...
Controlled deficit irrigation as a water-saving strategy for processing tomato
(Elsevier, 2020-02-05)
In a complex scenario characterized by climate change and increasing population demand, it is
necessary to adopt production strategies involving a lower use of water. For this purpose,
controlled deficit irrigation, CDI, ...
Hormone and secondary metabolite profiling in chestnut during susceptible and resistant interactions with Phytophthora cinnamomi
(Elsevier, 2019-10)
Phytophthora cinnamomi (Pc) is a dangerous pathogen that causes root rot (ink disease) and threatens the production of chestnuts worldwide. Despite all the advances recently reported at molecular and physiological level, ...
Role of Jasmonic Acid Pathway in Tomato Plant-Pseudomonas syringae Interaction
(MDPI, 2020)
The jasmonic acid pathway has been considered as the backbone of the response against necrotrophic pathogens. However, a hemi-biotrophic pathogen, such as Pseudomonas syringae, has taken advantage of the crosstalk between ...
