Gene and QTL detection in a three-way barley cross under selection by a mixed model with kinship information using SNPs
(Springer Verlag, 2011)Quantitative trait locus (QTL) detection is commonly performed by analysis of designed segregating populations derived from two inbred parental lines, where absence of selection, mutation and genetic drift is assumed. Even ... -
Gibbs-Donnan and specific ion interaction theory descriptions of the effect of ionic strength on proton dissociation of alginic acid
(Elsevier, 2004)The apparent proton dissociation constants of a commercial alginic acid have been obtained in KNO3 and NaCl at concentrations ranging between 0.01 and 2 mol·L-1. An analysis of the dependence on the ionic strength at a ... -
Glycerol as a starting material to prepare palmitate derivatives
(Asociación de Químicos e Ingenieros del Instituto Químico de Sarriá, 2007)Glycidyl palmitate, used to obtain high purity monoglycerides and epoxy resins, can be obtained from glycerol using a two-step process. The first step of this new approach consists in a reaction of esterification-chlorination ... -
H3PO4/metal halide induces a one-pot solvent-free esterification–halogenation of glycerol and diols
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013)As part of our continued effort to achieve the synthesis of halohydrin esters from polyols by a sustainable method, here we report on a multicomponent inorganic acid-mediated solvent-free synthesis. The synthesis was ... -
Heading date QTL in a spring × winter barley cross evaluated in Mediterranean environments
(Springer Verlag, 2008)Heading date is a key trait for the adaptation of barley to Mediterranean environments. We studied the genetic control of flowering time under Northern Spanish (Mediterranean) conditions using a new population derived from ... -
Heterochirality Restricts the Self-Assembly of Phenylalanine Dipeptides Capped with Highly Aromatic Groups
(American Chemical Society, 2020)The influence of stereochemistry on the self-assembly of phenylalanine (Phe) dipeptides bearing aromatic fluorenyl groups at both the N- and C-termini (Fmoc, OFm) has been investigated. For this purpose, Fmoc–d-Phe–l-Phe–OFm ... -
Hierarchical self-assembly of di-, tri- and tetraphenylalanine peptides capped with two fluorenyl functionalities: from polymorphs to dendrites
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)Homopeptides with 2, 3 and 4 phenylalanine (Phe) residues and capped with fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl and fluorenylmethyl esters at the N-terminus and C-terminus, respectively, have been synthesized to examine their self-assembly ... -
Hyperspectral imaging for the classification of individual cereal kernels according to fungal and mycotoxins contamination: A review
(Elsevier, 2022)One of the most common concerns in the cereal industry is the presence of fungi and their associated mycotoxins. Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) has been proposed recently as one of the most potent tools to manage fungal ... -
Identification of carotenoids using mass spectrometry
(Wiley Periodicals, 2014)The present review compiles positive MS fragmentation data of selected carotenoids obtained using various ionization techniques and matrices. In addition, new experimental data from the analysis of carotenoids in transgenic ... -
Impact of Rising Temperature in the Deposition Patterns of Bioactive Compounds in Field Grown Food Barley Grains
(MDPI, 2021)High temperatures at the end of the season are frequent under Mediterranean conditions, affecting final grain quality. This study determined the deposition patterns throughout grain filling of dry matter, dietary fiber, ... -
In situ measurements of micronutrient dynamics in open seawater show that complex dissociation rates may limit diatom growth
(Nature Research, 2018-12)In this first in situ study of the dynamic availability of phytoplankton micronutrients, a SeaExplorer glider was combined with Diffusive Gradients in Thin Films and deployed in the Mediterranean Sea. On the basis of their ... -
Inactivation of rice starch branching enzyme IIb triggers broad and unexpected changes in metabolism by transcriptional reprogramming
(National Academy of Sciences, 2020-10-05)Starch properties can be modified by mutating genes responsible for the synthesis of amylose and amylopectin in the endosperm. However, little is known about the effects of such targeted modifications on the overall starch ... -
Increased straight-chain esters content after ultra low oxygen storage and its relation to the lipoxygenase system in 'Golden Reinders (R)' apples
(Springer Verlag, 2011-01-01)Golden’ is the most cultivated apple group in Europe. In recent years, new mutants have emerged which improve both aspects of production and sensory attributes. In this work, emission of volatile compounds and the activity ... -
Influence of macromolecular crowding on the charge regulation of intrinsically disorded proteins
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021)In this work we study the coupling between ionization and conformational properties of two IDPs, histatin-5 and b-amyloid 42, in the presence of neutral and charged crowders. The latter is modeled to resemble bovine serum ... -
Influence of sample processing on the analysis of carotenoids in maize
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2012)We performed a number of tests with the aim to develop an effective extraction method for the analysis of carotenoid content in maize seed. Mixtures of methanol–ethyl acetate (6:4, v/v) and methanol–tetrahydrofuran (1:1, ... -
Influence of the combination of different atmospheres on diphenylamine, folpet and imazalil content in cold-stored 'Pink Lady®' apples
(Elsevier, 2009)"Pink Lady®" apples were harvested at commercial maturity, treated with three different agrochemical products, and stored at 1 °C under either air or controlled atmosphere conditions (2 kPa O2 + 2 kPa CO2 and 1 kPa O2 + 1 ... -
Influence of the settling of the resin beads on diffusion gradients in thin films measurements
(Elsevier, 2015-05-02)Binding resin beads used in DGT (Diffusion Gradients in Thin films) tend to settle to one side of the resin during casting. This phenomenon might be relevant for metal accumulation when partially labile complexes dominate ... -
Injection-port derivatization coupled to GC–MS/MS for the analysis of glycosylated and non-glycosylated polyphenols in fruit samples
