Quality Assessment of Photogrammetric Methods—A Workflow for Reproducible UAS Orthomosaics
(MDPI, 2020-11-22)Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are cost-effective, flexible and offer a wide range of applications. If equipped with optical sensors, orthophotos with very high spatial resolution can be retrieved using photogrammetric ... -
Influence of irrigation and fertilization on the sterol and triterpene dialcohol compositions of virgin olive oil
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), 2020-12-04)The objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of irrigation and fertilization with nitrogen and potassium on the sterol and triterpene dialcohol contents in two trials of cv. Arbequina in super-intensive orchards ... -
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. ... -
Different Ground Vegetation Cover Management Systems to Manage Cynodon dactylon in an Irrigated Vineyard
(MDPI, 2020-06-25)Ground cover management in vineyards in Spain is focused on minimizing soil erosion and compaction. Such practices have influenced the weed community structure in the inter-rows, contributing to the spread of the high ... -
Temperature sensitivity of soil respiration rates enhanced by microbial community response
(Springer Nature, 2014-09-03)Soils store about four times as much carbon as plant biomass1, and soil microbial respiration releases about 60 petagrams of carbon per year to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide2. Short-term experiments have shown that soil ... -
Modelling the spatial distribution of aquatic insects (Order Hemiptera) potentially involved in the transmission of Mycobacterium ulcerans in Africa
(BMC, 2018-09-06)Background: Biting aquatic insects belonging to the order Hemiptera have been suggested as potential vectors of Mycobacterium ulcerans in endemic areas for Buruli ulcer (BU). If this is the case, these insects would be ... -
Accumulation of target gene mutations confers multiple resistance to ALS, ACCase and EPSPS inhibitors in Lolium species in Chile
(Frontiers Media, 2020-10-28)Different Lolium species, common weeds in cereal fields and fruit orchards in Chile, were reported showing isolated resistance to the acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACCase), acetolactate synthase (ALS) and 5-enolpyruvylshikimat ... -
Germination Patterns in Seeds Produced in Apical and Basal Fruits of Two Thlaspi arvense Populations
(MDPI, 2020-05-25)The aim of the present work is to study possible differences in the germination behavior of apical and basal seeds (produced in the upper and lower fruits of the infruitescence), of two populations of field pennycress ... -
Impact of Cruise Activity on Freshwater Use in the Port of Palma (Mallorca, Spain)
(MDPI, 2020-04-11)Lack of knowledge about freshwater use in ports of tourist destinations hinders accurate assessment of water availability and water planning. In this study, freshwater use in the Port of Palma (Spain) is analyzed by sector ... -
Gestión integrada de gramíneas resistentes en maíz
(Eumedia, 2020)Las malas hierbas continúan siendo el principal problema en el maíz español, situación agravada por la aparición de diversas especies de gramíneas resistentes a herbicidas inhibidores de la ALS. En este artículo se discuten ... -
Field Survey and Resistance Occurrence to ALS-Inhibiting Herbicides in Glebionis coronaria L. in Tunisian Wheat Crops
(MDPI, 2020-09-16)Glebionis coronaria (L.) Cass. ex Spach is a troublesome weed in cereal cropping systems in northern Tunisia. Recently, failures in controlling this weed have been reported by farmers. Field surveys and farmers interviews ... -
Amaranthus palmeri a New Invasive Weed in Spain with Herbicide Resistant Biotypes
(MDPI, 2020-07-10)Amaranthus palmeri is the most prominent invasive weed in agricultural land from North America, partly due to its propensity to evolve resistance to multiple herbicide sites of action. In the last two decades, reports of ... -
Resistance Evolution to EPSPS Inhibiting Herbicides in False Barley (Hordeum murinum) Harvested in Southern Spain
(MDPI, 2020-07-10)A failure of the EPSPS-inhibiting herbicide glyphosate to control several populations of Hordeum murinum subsp. leporinum (or H. murinum) occurred in southern Spain after more than fifteen applications in both crop (olive, ... -
Multiple mutations in the EPSPS and ALS genes of Amaranthus hybridus underlie resistance to glyphosate and ALS inhibitors
(Nature Research, 2019-10)Amaranthus hybridus is one of the main weed species in Córdoba, Argentina. Until recently, this weed was effectively controlled with recurrent use of glyphosate. However, a population exhibiting multiple resistance (MR2) ... -
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 ... -
Cereal-legume mixtures increase net CO2 uptake in a forage system of the Eastern Pyrenees
(European Geosciences UnionCopernicus Publications, 2020-06-11)Forage systems are the major land use, and provide essential resources for animal feeding. Assessing the influence of forage species on net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) is key to develop management strategies that can help ... -
