Understanding pollen and ovule fertility as factors influencing fruit and seed set is important in cassava breeding. Extended daylength with red light (RL) and plant growth regulators (PGRs) have been used to induce flowering and fruit set in cassava...

Massive propagation of cork oak (Quercus suber) individuals tolerant to Phytophthora cinnamomi (Pc) is probably the most important challenge for cork production. Screening for resistance to Pc of ca. 200 seedlings obtained from a single cork oak tree...

Holm oak (Quercus ilex) is one of the most widely distributed tree species in the Mediterranean basin. High mortality rates have been observed in holm oak populations in the southwest of the Iberian Peninsula as a result of oak decline syndrome. Sele...

Vitis vinifera is an important fruit crop which is mainly consumed fresh or used for the production of wine. Genetic improvement programs through New Genomic Techniques (NGTs) aim to develop grapevine varieties resistant to biotic and abiotic stresse...

Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) is one of the most widely cultivated crops worldwide and is valued for its nutritional, economic, and ecological benefits. The regulation of defense mechanisms against herbivores, along with osmotic loss and environmenta...

Electromembranes increase the efficiency of metal transport in liquid-phase microextraction systems by applying an electric potential, which accelerates the transport. Nevertheless, to get high extraction percentages in short extraction times it is n...

In the present study, an efficient system for the in vitro regeneration of adventitious shoots from the peach rootstock Hansen 536 leaves has been established. Twenty regeneration media containing McCown Woody Plant Medium (WPM) as a basal salt suppl...
