Acrotomopus atropunctellus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) preference for large sugarcane shoots mitigates damage to sugarcane crop
(BioOne, 2017-09)The sugarcane weevil, Acrotomopus atropunctellus (Boheman) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is an increasingly important sugarcane pest in Argentina. Its emergence period overlaps with early stages of sugarcane phenology. ... -
Desbrotado químico en el cultivo de tomate
(Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional del Litoral, 2014)En las plantas de tomate, la extracción de los brotes axilares es una práctica necesaria durante el desarrollo del cultivo. Con el objetivo de simplificar esta tarea, que insume tiempo y gastos en mano de obra, se probó ... -
Dynamics of shoot and fruit growth following fruit thinning in olive trees: same season and subsequent season responses
(2015-07-01)The need to understand how the balance between vegetative and reproductive growth in olive trees is modified by different crop loads has become more important over the last 20 years due to increasing planting densities and ... -
High temperature during the budswell phase of grapevines increases shoot water transport capacity
(Elsevier, 2020-09)Knowledge about heat acclimation in perennial plants is limited. Our hypotheses were (i) that high temperature during budswell before budbreak elicits acclimation in grapevines that is mediated by greater water transport ... -
Shoot- and tuber-based critical nitrogen dilution curves for the prediction of the N status in potato
(Elsevier, 2020-09)Critical nitrogen (N) dilution curves describe the critical N concentration in plant tissues during crop growth and they are used to estimate the N nutriton status of whole plants in potato. Little is known, however, about ... -
Structural aspects of dormancy in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa): Importance and possible action mechanisms of the seed coat
(2015-05)Two possible sources of resistance to pre-harvest sprouting were evaluated in quinoa. They showed dormancy at harvest and significant variations in dormancy level in response to environmental conditions experienced during ... -
The allocation of assimilated carbon to shoot growth: in situ assessment in natural grasslands reveals nitrogen effects and interspecific differences
(2014-04)In grasslands, sustained nitrogen loading would increase the proportion of assimilated carbon allocated to shoot growth (A shoot), because it would decrease allocation to roots and also encourage the contribution of species ...
