New insights on the ripening pattern of ‘Blanquilla’ pears: A comparison between on- and off-tree ripened fruit
(Elsevier, 2019-01-05)To better understand the key processes involved in the ripening of attached fruit, we have investigated physico-chemical and biochemical changes occurring in ‘Blanquilla’ pear during on-tree (attached fruit) and off-tree ... -
Nitrogen nutrition diagnosis for olive trees grown in super-intensive cropping systems
(Taylor and Francis, 2019-06-17)The results of a 4-year experiment combining irrigation, N, and K showed that to maintain productivity and tree growth it is necessary to attain a higher leaf N status than current diagnosis standards. To sustain high oil ... -
Nitrogen replacement value of alfalfa to corn and wheat under irrigated Mediterranean conditions
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (Espanya), 2010)In crop rotations that include alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), agronomic and environmental concerns mean that it is important to determine the N fertilizer contribution of this legume for subsequent crops in order to help ... -
Noves lemnàcies al riu Segre
(Institució Catalana d'Història Natural, 2016-01-02)La dinàmica fluvial, basada en revingudes sobtades, provoca intenses pertorbacions que afecten l’estructura de les comunitats vegetals associades i els processos ecològics (Naiman & Décamps, 1997; Forman & Godron, 1986). ... -
Nuevas tendencias en la producción de plantas de vivero de frutales
(Eumedia, 2006)La producción de planta de vivero de frutales debe adaptarse a los nuevos requisitos legales y a las necesidades de las explotaciones frutales. Los viveros tienen que incorporar rápidamente las nuevas variedades obtenidas, ... -
Nuevos taxones para la checklist de la flora vascular de Andorra
(Flora Montiberica, 2016)Se actualiza el listado de la flora vascular de Andorra. Con la información de publicaciones externas y trabajos propios del CENMA, se añaden 57 nuevos taxones para el Principado a la checklist vigente desde 2008, siendo ... -
Partitioning of functional diversity reveals the scale and extent of trait convergence and divergence
(Wiley, 2009)Questions: Trait differentiation among species occurs at different spatial scales within a region. How does the partitioning of functional diversity help to identify different community assembly mechanisms? Location: ... -
El patrimoni vegetal de l’espai natural «Coladors de Boldú-Montsuar» a la comarca de l’Urgell
(Institució Catalana d'Història Natural, 2000)En aquest article es fa una descripció dels valors naturals presents al paratge conegut amb el nom de Coladors de Boldú-Montsuar, ubicat a la plana urgellenca, així com una proposta de redacció d’un Pla especial de protecció ... -
Performance and environmental impact of biodegradable polymers as agricultural mulching films
(Elsevier, 2016)In the aim of resolving environmental key issues such as irreversible soil pollution by non-biodegradable and non-recoverable polyethylene (PE) fragments, a full-scale field experiment was set up to evaluate the suitability ... -
Phenology and plant functional type dominance drive CO2 exchange in seminatural grasslands in the Pyrenees
(Cambridge University Press, 2020)Understanding the mechanisms underlying net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) in mountain grasslands is important to quantify their relevance in the global carbon budget. However, complex interactions between environmental ... -
Plant Functional Diversity, Climate and Grazer Type Regulate Soil Activity in Natural Grasslands
(MDPI, 2020-08-31)Global change modifies vegetation composition in grasslands with shifts in plant functional types (PFT). Although changes in plant community composition imply changes in soil function, this relationship is not well understood. ... -
Plant guilds drive biomass response to global warming and water availability in subalpine grassland
(Wiley, 2007)1. The consequences of global warming and changes in resource availability were investigated in subalpine grasslands in the Pyrenees. These communities are considered to be especially vulnerable to climate change because ... -
Point mutations and cytochrome P450 can contribute to resistance to accase-inhibiting herbicides in three phalaris species
(MDPI, 2021-08)pecies ofPhalarishave historically been controlled by acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase(ACCase)-inhibiting herbicides; however, overreliance on herbicides with this mechanism of actionhas resulted in the selection of resistant ... -
Point Mutations as Main Resistance Mechanism Together With P450-Based Metabolism Confer Broad Resistance to Different ALS-Inhibiting Herbicides in Glebionis coronaria From Tunisia
(Frontiers Media, 2021)Resistance to acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibiting herbicides has recently been reported in Glebionis coronaria from wheat fields in northern Tunisia, where the weed is widespread. However, potential resistance mechanisms ... -
Positive effects of legumes on soil organic carbon stocks disappear at high legume proportions across natural grasslands in the pyrenees
(Springer Verlag, 2021-09)Soil is the largest terrestrial carbon pool, making it crucial for climate change mitigation. Soil organic carbon (SOC) is suggested to depend on biodiversity components, but much evidence comes from diversity-function ... -
