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
(Elsevier, 2022-04)As a mans to evaluate the potential of carrot anthocyanins as food colorants and nutraceutical agents, we investigated the physicochemical stability and antioxidant capacity of purple carrot extracts under different pH ... -
A physiological indicator to estimate allicin content in garlic during storage
(2013-08)The aim of the present work was to evaluate the application of a physiological indicator as marker of allicin content during postharvest storage at different temperatures. Sureño INTA garlic cultivar was stored at room ... -
Plant dry weight and nutritive value of genetically diverse germplasm of false Rhodes grass [Leptochloa crinita (Lag.) P.M. Peterson and N.W. Snow], a native forage grass from arid regions of the Americas
(Wiley, 2021-12)The native forage, false Rhodes grass [Leptochloa crinita (Lag.) P.M. Peterson and N.W. Snow], represents an important component of the arid and semi-arid rangelands of the Americas, due to its large area of distribution ... -
Potential of native Sphaeralceas to develop cultivars with xerolandscape value in Mendoza, Argentina = Caracterización de Sphaeralceas nativas para la obtención de cultivares con valor en xeropaisajismo en Mendoza, Argentina
(Asociación Argentina de Horticultura (ASAHo), 2022-12)Debido a la cada vez más escasa disponibilidad de agua en la Provincia de Mendoza, los espacios verdes se van reduciendo. El reemplazo de especies exóticas por nativas, con menor consumo hídrico, aportaría a la sustentabilidad ... -
