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 ... -
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 ... -
