A Performance Index as a Measure of the Host Suitability to Drosophila suzukii Matsumura (Diptera: Drosophilidae)
(Springer, 2024-01)Drosophila suzukii Matsumura, known as spotted wing drosophila (SWD), is an Asiatic invasive fruit pest that has spread over the world in the last 15 years, due to its high reproductive rate, its tolerance to different ... -
Improving the accuracy of beef cattle methane inventories in Latin America and Caribbean countries
(Elsevier, 2023-01)On-farm methane (CH4) emissions need to be estimated accurately so that the mitigation effect of recommended practices can be accounted for. In the present study prediction equations for enteric CH4 have been developed in ... -
Phytoremediation of Contaminated Sites to Produce Feedstock for Sustainable Biofuels
(ETA Florence Renewable Energies (ETA Srl), 2023-06-05)Biomass can play a higher role for energy availability and security in the context of decarbonisation; but land scarcity is a critical and limiting factor for the global biofuel production from energy crops. At the same ... -
Multiomics analyses reveal the roles of the ASR1 transcription factor in tomato fruits
(Oxford University Press, 2021-09)The transcription factor ASR1 (ABA, STRESS, RIPENING 1) plays multiple roles in plant responses to abiotic stresses as well as being involved in the regulation of central metabolism in several plant species. However, despite ... -
