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 ... -
New contributions in the production and processing of Broccoli (Brassica oleracea L var. italic Plenck): a review = Nuevos aportes en la producción y procesamiento de Brócoli (Brassica oleracea L var. itálica Plenck): una revisión
(Asociación Argentina de Horticultura (ASAHo), 2022-12)El brócoli, Brassica oleracea L. var. itálica Plenck, es una hortaliza de la familia Brassicaceae que se caracteriza por su riqueza en compuestos bioactivos que podrían reducir el riesgo de contraer enfermedades cardiovasculares, ... -
New insight into how thigmomorphogenesis affects Epipremnum aureum plant development
(2018-09)Climbing Epipremnum aureum plants develop larger leaves than unsupported, hanging plants. This effect may be regarded, in part, as a thigmomorphogenic response, but gravimorphogenetic effect may also be involved, since ... -
Nitric oxide and abscisic acid regulate osmoprotective and antioxidative mechanisms related to water stress tolerance of grapevines
(Wiley, 2021-03)Background and Aims: Exogenously applied nitric oxide (NO) and abscisic acid (ABA) are known to improve the tolerance of plants to abiotic stress. The effects of NO and ABA applications on physiological and metabolic ... -
Nutritional quality of orange tomatoes for fresh consumption and processing products
(International Society for Horticultural Science, 2017)In Argentina, commercial tomatoes for fresh consumption as well for processed products traditionally have red fruits. Although other fruit colors (yellow, purple) are present in the “cherry” types, orange tomatoes for ... -
Onion (Allium cepa L.) hybrid seed production: Sugar content variation during the flowering period
(Wiley, 2021-07)Honeybees are the most used pollinators for onion seed production. Two types of onion varieties are mainly grown worldwide: hybrids and open pollination (OP) cultivars. Although hybrids offer advantages to bulb growers, ... -
Onion Cultivars Released by La Consulta Experiment Station, INTA, Argentina
(American Society for Horticultural Science, 2000-12)The onion crop is of great importance in Argentina and, with garlic (Allium sativum L.), is the main fresh vegetable exported. The principal market for Argentine onions is Brazil, with significant exports to Europe and the ... -
Onion Hybrid Seed Production: Relation with Nectar Composition and Flower Traits
(2018-05)Onion (Allium cepa L.) is one of the main vegetable crops. Pollinators are required for onion seed production, being honeybees the most used. Around the world, two types of onion varieties are grown: open pollinated (OP) ... -
Organosulfur and phenolic content of garlic (Allium sativum L.) and onion (Allium cepa L.) and its relationship with antioxidant activity
(2016)Garlic and onion have a role in decreasing risks of chronic diseases due to their antioxidant activity. These biological effects have been attributed in part to organosulfur and flavonoid compounds present in Allium. The ... -
Physicochemical properties, degradation kinetics, and antioxidant capacity of aqueous anthocyanin-based extracts from purple carrots compared to synthetic and natural food colorants
