Arabidopsis Plants Sense Non-self Peptides to Promote Resistance Against Plectosphaerella cucumerina
(Frontiers Media, 2020-05-08)
Peptides are important regulators that participate in the modulation of almost every physiological event in plants, including defense. Recently, many of these peptides have been described as defense elicitors, termed ...
Influence of controlled deficit irrigation on tomato functional value
(Elsevier, 2018-06-30)
The effect of controlled deficit irrigation (CDI) on the accumulation of carotenoids, polyphenols and l-ascorbic acid was studied in conventional and high lycopene tomato cultivars. Plants were initially irrigated to cover ...
Development of an attract-and-infect system to control Rhynchophorus ferrugineus with the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana
(Wiley, 2018)
BACKGROUND: A new Beauveria bassiana-based attract and infec t device (AID) to control Rhynchophorus ferrugineus Olivier(Coleoptera: Curculionidae) was developed. The virulence and persistence of the fungal formulation u ...
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 ...

(Publicacions de la Universitat Jaume I. Servei de Comunicació i Publicacions, 2020)
Introducción: En función de la conocida popularmente «regla de los cinco
segundos» se decidió realizar un estudio experimental que comprobara la
veracidad y la rigurosidad científica que sugiere el dicho popular. En este ...
Which came first: The disease or the pest? Is there a host mediated spread of Beauveria bassiana (Ascomycota: Hypocreales) by invasive palm pests?
(Elsevier, 2019-03)
The red palm weevil (RPW) Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is threatening the
palm family worldwide, causing important economic losses. Current tactics to manage the weevil are largely
based ...
Phytohormone participation during Citrus sinensis non-host response to Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria
(Elsevier, 2018)
Citrus, one of the most valuable fruit crops around the world, are severely damaged by biotic stress and huge
economical losses are caused by pathogen infections. Non-host response is an essential plant defense ...
Chloroplasts Modulate Elongation Responses to Canopy Shade by Retrograde Pathways Involving HY5 and Abscisic Acid
(American Society of Plant Biologists, 2019-02)
Plants use light as energy for photosynthesis but also as a signal of competing vegetation. Using different concentrations of norflurazon and lincomycin, we found that the response to canopy shade in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis ...
Early Molecular Responses of Tomato to Combined Moderate Water Stress and Tomato Red Spider Mite Tetranychus evansi Attack
(MDPI, 2020)
Interaction between plants and their environment is changing as a consequence of the climate
change and global warming, increasing the performance and dispersal of some pest species which
become invasive species. Tetranychus ...
A customizable method to characterize Arabidopsis thaliana transpiration under drought conditions
(BMC, 2019)
Background: Characterization of the dynamic response of plant transpiration to decreasing soil water content in
a reproducible way is required for the correct phenotyping of traits related to water saving strategies. ...
