Halotolerant native bacteria Enterobacter 64S1 and Pseudomonas 42P4 alleviate saline stress in tomato plants
(Wiley, 2022-06)Salinity is one of the principal abiotic stresses that limit the growth and productivity of crops. The use of halotolerant plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) that increase the growth of salt-stressed crops is an ... -
Heritability of floral traits in Allium cepa L. populations from biparental crosses
(Wiley, 2024-02)Onions (Allium cepa L.) are one of the main vegetable crops worldwide. As an allogamous species with entomophilous pollination, floral traits play a critical role in seed production. Improving seed yield, especially for ... -
High Temperature Alters Anthocyanin Concentration and Composition in Grape Berries of Malbec, Merlot, and Pinot Noir in a Cultivar-Dependent Manner
(MDPI, 2022-03)Climate is determinant for grapevine geographical distribution, berry attributes, and wine quality. Due to climate change, a 2–4 °C increase in mean diurnal temperature is predicted by the end of the century for the most ... -
A high-quality carrot genome assembly provides new insights into carotenoid accumulation and asterid genome evolution
(2016)We report a high-quality chromosome-scale assembly and analysis of the carrot (Daucus carota) genome, the first sequenced genome to include a comparative evolutionary analysis among members of the euasterid II clade. We ... -
History, evolution and domestication of garlic: a review
(Springer, 2023-09)The center of origin of garlic (Allium sativum L.) and its closest wild relative, Allium longicuspis, is considered Central Asia. Religious writings, historical records and ancient medical texts, especially from the ... -
In vivo and in vitro screening for resistance against Penicillium allii in garlic accessions
(Springer, 2019-11-14)Garlic blue mold disease, caused by Penicillium allii, is responsible for important economic losses produced yearly in garlic field crops and in postharvest storage. The identification of genetic resistance sources may ... -
Influence of Fusarium spp. isolate and inoculum density on resistance screening tests in onion
(Brazilian Phytopathological Society, 2014)Fusarium basal rot (FBR), which is caused predominantly by Fusarium oxysporum and F. proliferatum, is the main limiting factor of onion crops. Resistant cultivars obtained in other countries do not behave as such in ... -
Influence of irrigation regime and seasonal temperatures on nut quality and the oil fatty acid profile of walnuts (Juglans regia L.)
(Elsevier, 2023-08)Walnut production is expanding worldwide due to the high demand for natural products with proven nutraceutical properties. This expansion includes new growing areas, such as central–western Argentina, where crop water ... -
Influence of Seed Vigor and Preplant Herbicides on Emergence, Growth, and Yield of Tomato
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 1990-03)The interactions of seed vigor with herbicides were studied with respect to seedling emergence, growth, and fruit yield of processing tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. UC204C). Seed vigor (speed of germination) ... -
Inheritance of Vernalization Requirement in Carrot
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 2007-07)Carrot (Daucus carota L.) is a cool-season vegetable normally classified as a biennial or winter annual species, requiring vernalization to induce flowering. Nevertheless, some cultivars adapted to warmer climates require ... -
Is the Nectar Sugar Content the Key to Improving Onion and Bunching Onion Seed Yield?
(MDPI, 2023-06)Bunching onion as well as onion show great variability in seed yield among cultivars. Understanding the role of floral rewards and attractants to pollinator species is crucial to improving crop seed yield. Nectar sugar ... -
Loss of anthocyanins and modification of the anthocyanin profiles ingrape berries of Malbec and Bonarda grown under high temperature conditions
(2017)Malbec and Bonarda are the two most widely cultivated grape varieties in Argentina, and their derivedred wines are recognized worldwide, being their intense color a major quality trait. The temperature dur-ing fruit ripening ... -
Main factors influencing floral differentiation and fruit establishment in squash (Cucurbita spp.) = Principales factores que influyen en la diferenciación floral y el cuaje de frutos en zapallo (Cucurbita spp.)
(Asociación Argentina de Horticultura, 2021-08)Different agronomic practices can be implemented to increase productivity in squashes (Cucurbita spp.), although they do not always render the same results. They depend on environmental factors such as temperature, ... -
Microsatellite analysis and marker development in garlic: distribution in EST sequence, genetic diversity analysis, and marker transferability across Alliaceae
(2018-04)Allium vegetables, such as garlic and onion, have understudied genomes and limited molecular resources, hindering advances in genetic research and breeding of these species. In this study, we characterized and compared the ... -
Molecular mapping of vernalization requirement and fertility restoration genes in carrot
(2013-02)Carrot (Daucus carota L.) is a cool-season vegetable normally classified as a biennial species, requiring vernalization to induce flowering. Nevertheless, some cultivars adapted to warmer climates require less vernalization ... -
Mulinum spinosum root extract, rich in antioxidant compounds, mitigates harmful effects in mice with diet-induced metabolic syndrome
(Elsevier, 2022-02)Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a health issue with a high incidence in adult population. Using herbal medicines for the management of serious complications of MetS, such as dyslipidemia and hyperglycemia, is ... -
Multiallelic digenic control of vernalization requirement in carrot (Daucus carota L.)
(Springer, 2019-02)Carrots are typically classified as annual or biennial, depending on their vernalization requirement for flowering, a trait that is genetically-conditioned. Wild carrots are predominantly annual, requiring less hours of ... -
Nectar and flower traits of different onion male sterile lines related to pollination efficiency and seed yield of F1 hybrids
(Entomological Society of America, 2013-06)Honey bees are the main pollinators of onion crops for seed production, but owing to low attractiveness of flowers, pollination is often inadequate. Pollination problems result in low seed yields. This problem is accentuated ... -
