Soil C/N ratios cause opposing effects in forests compared to grasslands on decomposition rates and stabilization factors in southern European ecosystems
Soils store an important amount of carbon (C), mostly in the form of organic matter in different decomposing stages. Hence, understanding the factors that rule the rates at which decomposed organic matter is incorporated ... -
Abundance and trait-matching both shape interaction frequencies between plants and birds in seed-dispersal networks
Abundance and trait-driven processes have both been identified as potential mechanisms in determining the occurrence of species interactions. However, little is known about how these two mechanisms interact to determine ... -
Insecticidal traits of variants in a genotypically diverse natural isolate of anticarsia gemmatalis multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AgMNPV)
Outbreaks of Anticarsia gemmatalis (Hübner, 1818) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae), a major pest of soybean, can be controlled below economic thresholds with methods that do not involve the application of synthetic insecticides. ... -
Antifungal activity of chitosan/poly (ethylene oxide) blend electrospun polymeric fiber mat doped with metallic silver nanoparticles
In this work, the implementation of advanced functional coatings based on the combination of two compatible nanofabrication techniques such as electrospinning and dip-coating technology have been successfully obtained for ... -
Evaluation of a crop rotation with biological inhibition potential to avoid N2O emissions in comparison with synthetic nitrification inhibition
Agriculture has increased the release of reactive nitrogen to the environment due to crops’ low nitrogen-use efficiency (NUE) after the application of nitrogen-fertilisers. Practices like the use of stabilized-fertilisers ... -
First study on the root endophytic fungus Trichoderma hamatum as an entomopathogen: development of a fungal bioinsecticide against cotton leafworm (Spodoptera littoralis)
Cotton leaf worm (Spodoptera littoralis) is a pest that produces important losses in horticultural and ornamental crops in greenhouse, being classified as quarantine pest A2 by EPPO. One of the strategies proposed to control ... -
Transcriptome metabolic characterization of tuber borchii SP1-A new spanish strain for in vitro studies of the bianchetto truffle
Truffles are ascomycete hypogeous fungi belonging to the Tuberaceae family of the Pezizales order that grow in ectomycorrhizal symbiosis with tree roots, and they are known for their peculiar aromas and flavors. The axenic ... -
Role of oxidative stress in the physiology of sensitive and resistant Amaranthus palmeri populations treated with herbicides inhibiting acetolactate synthase
The aim of the present study was to elucidate the role of oxidative stress in the mode of action of acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibiting herbicides. Two populations of Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson from Spain (sensitive ... -
Unravelling the phytotoxic effects of glyphosate on sensitive and resistant Amaranthus Palmeri populations by GC-MS and LC-MS metabolic profiling
Glyphosate, the most successful herbicide in history, specifically inhibits the activity of the enzyme 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS; EC 2.5.1.19), one of the key enzymes in the shikimate pathway. ... -
Dynamics of GFLV, GFkV, GLRaV-1, and GLRaV -3 grapevine viruses transport toward developing tissues
Viral diseases in grapevine cause large economic losses due to decreased irregular yield and unbalanced ripening, and can even lead to plant mortality. There is a large number of grapevine viral agents, and a few of them ... -
Disentangling the seasonal effects of agricultural intensification on birds and bats in Mediterranean olive groves
Assessing the spatio-temporal impact of agricultural intensification on species and communities is key for biodiversity conservation. Here, we investigated the seasonal effects of olive grove intensification at both local ... -
Conventional and newly bred rootstock effects on the ecophysiological response of Vitis vinifera L. cv. Tempranillo
Achieving more environmentally sustainable vineyards, particularly regarding efficient water use, is paramount in semi-arid grape-growing regions. Rootstocks may be a possible strategy to address these challenges, but ... -
Glucosinolates as an effective tool in plant-parasitic nematodes control: exploiting natural plant defenses
Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) are an important damaging biotic agent for numerous crops around the world, causing serious losses directly and indirectly. Cultural and chemical control strategies were mainly used to PPNs ... -
The use of freshwater macrophytes as a resource in sustainable agriculture
Freshwater macrophytes include different groups of plants that are capable of growing in or very close to aquatic environments (spermatophytes, pteridophytes and bryophytes). These plants play a fundamental role in their ... -
Tryptophan levels as a marker of auxins and nitric oxide signaling
The aromatic amino acid tryptophan is the main precursor for indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), which involves various parallel routes in plants, with indole-3-acetaldoxime (IAOx) being one of the most common intermediates. ... -
New in vivo approach to broaden the thioredoxin family interactome in chloroplasts
Post-translational redox modifications provide an important mechanism for the control of major cellular processes. Thioredoxins (Trxs), which are key actors in this regulatory mechanism, are ubiquitous proteins that catalyse ... -
Additive effects of heatwave and water stresses on soybean seed yield is caused by impaired carbon assimilation at pod formation but not at flowering
Heatwave (HW) combined with water stress (WS) are critical environmental factors negatively affecting crop development. This study aimed to quantify the individual and combined effects of HW and WS during early reproductive ... -
Editorial: Beneficial effects of fungal endophytes in major agricultural crops
Endophytic microorganisms are those that can dwell within plant tissues without any external sign of infection or other harmful effects on the host plants (Burragoni and Jeon, 2021). In recent decades, the important role ... -
Mechanisms involved in drought stress tolerance triggered by rhizobia strains in wheat
Rhizobium spp. is a well-known microbial plant biostimulant in non-legume crops, but little is known about the mechanisms by which rhizobia enhance crop productivity under drought stress. This work analyzed the mechanisms ... -
Developing active and intelligent films through the incorporation of grape skin and seed tannin extracts into gelatin
To achieve sustainability in the wine industry, by-products from winery operations are being diverted from waste streams and turned into beneficial use. Grape seed tannin (SeedT) and skin tannin (SkinT) extracts were used ...
