PEACH: predicting frost events in peach orchards using IoT technology
(EAI, 2016)In 2013, 85% of the peach production in the Mendoza region (Argentina) was lost because of frost. In a couple of hours, farmers can lose everything. Handling a frost event is possible, but it is hard to predict when it ... -
Predation by invasive rainbow trout on the critically endangered Pehuenche Spiny‐chest Frog
(Wiley, 2020-11)The Pehuenche Spiny‐chest Frog Alsodes pehuenche is an endemic species from the Andes of Argentina and Chile and is considered to be Critically Endangered. Its population has been declining over the last ten years, principally ... -
Promising olive varieties for extra virgin oil production in Mendoza, Argentina
(Elsevier, 2023)There are more than 2000 varieties of olives grown worldwide, of which only a few (2 %) are cultivated in Argentina. Mendoza is one of the main oil-producing provinces in the country due to its adequate agroecological ... -
Pruning effects on ring width and wood hydrosystem of Prosopis flexuosa DC from arid woodlands
(2015-10)Pruning is a silvicultural practice that could potentially improve the productivity in arid woodlands. However, there is not enough information about the influence of this practice on the tree-ring wood anatomy of desert ... -
Relationships between olive yield components and simulated irradiance within hedgerows of various row orientations and spacings
(2016-01-26)An model of distribution of irradiance within hedgerows is shown to explain well the distribution of fruit size and oil concentration, and less so fruit density, within a range of super-high density (SHD) rectangular olive ... -
Resistencia a heladas en plantas frutales
(Universidad de Colima, 2013)El daño por congelación en los tejidos vegetales es considerado un estrés abiótico principal en los cultivos frutales. Sin embargo, las plantas han desarrollado mecanismos de resistencia al frío. Para una especie y ... -
Response of inflorescence structure and oil yield components to source-sink manipulation by artificial shading in olive
(Springer, 2022-03)Olive yield components are first determined during flowering, ovary growth, and fruit set. However, variations of the assimilates available during these important processes have been little studied. The aims of this study ... -
Response of Oil Production and Quality to Hedgerow Design in Super-High-Density Olive cv. Arbequina Orchards
(MDPI, 2021-08)An analysis is presented of the response of olive oil production and quality parameters, viz. fatty acids (palmitic, oleic and linoleic acids), phenolic compounds and oxidative stability to hedgerow spacing and orientation ... -
Row orientation: applications to productivity and design of hedgerows in horticultural and olive orchards
(2015-05-13)Hedgerow systems, that have been established in various crops to facilitate mechanical harvesting to reduce costs and more rapid management, are a recent innovation in olive production. They were introduced two decades ago ... -
Short-term responses to flooding stress of three Prunus rootstocks
(2017-10-20)In fruit trees, flooding stress can affect plant survival and growth, and tolerance to root anoxia is determined by rootstock characteristics. Similarly to almond, peach trees are also among the Prunus species proving most ... -
Spatial and temporal synchronicity in the phenological events of Prosopis flexuosa in the Central Monte Desert = Sincronización espacial y temporal de los eventos fenológicos de Prosopis flexuosa en el Desierto del Monte Central
(Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional de Cuyo, 2020-06)Some desert plant species are capable of using underground water and are therefore independent of rainfall events. Species of the genus Prosopis are thought to be facultative phreatophytes, since they have deep and shallow ... -
Spiraea sp. new natural host of Plum pox virus (Sharka)
(Springer, 2021-01)Plum pox virus (PPV) was detected in Argentina for the first time in 2004. After eradication of the initial outbreaks, establishment of quarantine areas and strict control of nursery stock plants, no evidence of disease ... -
Spring reproductive and vegetative phenology of olive (Olea europaea L.) cultivars at different air temperatures along a latitudinal-altitudinal gradient in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2022-10)Detailed spring phenology studies are scarce in olive trees growing in non-Mediterranean climates despite crop expansion into new regions in the last few decades. Additionally, the vegetative phenology of olive trees has ... -
Temperaturas previas y aclimatación en yemas florales de duraznero [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch.] expuestas a congelación
(Universidad de Colima, 2018-05)Los árboles frutales caducifolios poseen un periodo de reposo durante el invierno, que les permite tolerar temperaturas bajas extremas con un mínimo de actividad, minimizando también el daño a sus órganos. Durante este ... -
The effect of water status on productive and flowering variables in young ‘Arbequina’ olive trees under limited irrigation water availability in a semiarid region of Chile
(Springer, 2018-12)The intense drought affecting olive production in Northern Chile underscores the need to research non-traditional irrigation strategies to obtain the best crop performance. Accordingly, this study aimed to obtain preliminary ... -
Two south American new species of Neophyllaphis subgenus chileaphis (Hemiptera: Aphididae)
(Florida Entomological Society, 2008-09)Two South American new species of Neophyllaphis Takahashi (Aphididae Neuquenaphidinae) are described, Neophyllaphis cuschensis Nieto Nafría & Delfino sp. nov. collected on Podocarpus glomeratus D. Don in Cusco (Peru) and ... -
Vegetative structure and distribution of oil yield components and fruit characteristics within olive hedgerows (cv. Arbosana) mechanically pruned annually on alternating sides in San Juan, Argentina
(2018)In olive hedgerows mechanical pruning is needed to control hedgerow dimensions for canopy illumination and access by harvesting machinery but yield responses to pruning strategies remain unclear. This study records the ...
