Effects of Foliar Application of Gibberellic Acid on the Salt Tolerance of Tomato and Sweet Pepper Transplants

2020

Seed germination and early seedling growth are the plant growth stages most sensitive to salt stress. Thus, the availability of poor-quality brackish water can be a big limiting factor for the nursery vegetable industry. The exogenous supplementation of gibberellic acid (GA3) may promote growth and vigor and counterbalance salt stress in mature plants. This study aimed to test exogenous supplementation through foliar spray of 10&minus

La fine della carriera del praefectus Aegypti Subaziano Aquila. Per un’ipotesi sul ruolo dell’Egitto fra Caracalla e Geta

2022

Si analizzano le fonti storiografiche, papiracee ed epigrafiche relative alla lunga carriera del praefectus Aegypti Subaziano Aquila, in carica a partire dal 206 d.C., e si ipotizza che la fine della sua carriera sia da porre in relazione con il contrasto fra Caracalla e Geta scaturito al momento della successione a Settimio Severo. The historiographical, papyrus and epigraphic sources relating to the long career of the praefectus Aegypti Subaziano Aquila, in office starting from 206 AD, are analysed, and it is hypothesized that the end of his career is to be placed in relation to the conflict between Caracalla and Geta which arose in moment of succession to Septimius Severus.

Estudios polínicos de la flora autóctona valenciana : Convolvulaceae

1986

Se estudian los caracteres palinológicos referentes a forma, tamaño, ornamentación, apertura y estructura de la exina, en las doce especies de la familia Convolvulaceae presentes en el área valenciana, las cuales se pueden separar en cuatro tipos polínicos distintos, que se corresponden con cada uno de los cuatro géneros representados: Calystegia R. Br., Convolvulus I.., Cressa I.., y Cuscata I., encontrándose diferencias dentro de cada tipo que, en algunos casos, permiten discriminar especies. Palynological characters in report with size, shape, ornamentation and exine structure, are studied on the twelve species representated on the valencian area. Four palynological types are recognized,…

The organismic and the continuous approaches applied to phytosociological relationships in a lowland neotropical forest, Venezuela

2011

Abstract The Organismic and the Continuous theories are traditionally considered as antagonist in ecology studies. In this research, we make the floristic characterization of different forest communities and establish the corresponding classification, taking into account the approaches derived from the theories aforementioned. We used 1 ha plots to evaluate individuals bigger than 10 cm dbh (diameter at breast height). In each one of that plots, four sub-plots of 100 m2 were measured, to study all the spermatophyta in the understory. The data obtained were considered in an Enlarged Importance Index (EII), for each species in each plot. Then, the phytosociological relationships were establis…

Chronic cumulative risk assessment of the exposure to organophosphorus, carbamate and pyrethroid and pyrethrin pesticides through fruit and vegetable…

2015

In the present study, the chronic cumulative exposure to organophosphorus (OPs), carbamates (CBs) and pyrethroid and pyrethrin (PPs) pesticides in the region of Valencia through fruit and vegetables consumption is presented. A total of 752 samples and 84 pesticides were studied of which, 52 were OPs, 23 CBs and 9 PPs. Residue data were derived from the Valencia Region monitoring program 2007-2011 and food consumption levels from a questionnaire-based dietary survey conducted in 2010 in the same area. The relative potency factor (RPFs) approach was used to estimate chronic cumulative dietary exposure to OPs, CBs and PPs using acephate, oxamyl and deltamethrin as index compounds, respectively…

Variazione degli stock di carbonio in seguito ai processi di abbandono dei coltivi: il caso studio dell'isola di Pantelleria (Tp)

2007

The recent abandonment of marginal agricultural areas in the Mediterranean has caused an increase of the surface occupied by pre-forest and forest formations. In order to study the carbon accumulation processes on Pantelleria Island was selected a North-facing area. This area includes 5 stages of succession (sds) that compose a chronosequence (from 0 to 30 years) to understand soil C accumulation processes after abandonment. These are abandoned vineyards or caperbushes, not disturbed (grazing, fire) since agricultural abandonment, and they are situated in thermomediterranean belt and on the same parent material and consequently considered in the same ecological conditions. Samples at 1 cm, …

Baseline adherence to the Mediterranean diet and major cardiovascular events: Prevención con dieta mediterránea trial

2014

Lifestyle modification, particularly dietary changes, is the cornerstone of population-based strategies for cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention.1 Recently the Prevención con Dieta Mediterránea (PREDIMED) study,2 a 5-year randomized primary prevention trial (isrctn.org Identifier: ISRCTN35739639), showed a 30% reduction in incident CVD with Mediterranean diet (MeDiet) intervention in comparison with a control diet. At quarterly visits throughout the study, a validated 14-item MeDiet screening tool (Table 1) was used to assess conformity with this dietary pattern.3 Close monitoring of adherence to dietary instructions for CVD prevention is difficult in the clinical setting. Short dietary …

Identification and quantification of carotenoids including geometrical isomers in fruit and vegetable juices by liquid chromatography with ultraviole…

2004

A method was established for the identification and quantification of carotenoids including geometrical isomers in fruit and vegetable juices by liquid chromatography with an ultraviolet−diode array detector, using a C18 Vydac 201TP54 column. The mobile phase used was the ternary methanol mixture (0.1 M ammonium acetate), tert-butyl methyl ether and water, in a concentration gradient, and a temperature gradient was applied. Retinol palmitate was added as an internal standard. An extraction process (ethanol/hexane, 4:3, v/v) was performed, followed by saponification with diethyl ether/methanolic KOH (0.1%, w/v, BHT) (1:1, v/v) for 0.5 h at room temperature. Seventeen different (cis and trans…

Effect of high-pressure processing on carotenoids profile, colour, microbial and enzymatic stability of cloudy carrot juice

2019

Abstract The objective of this work was to assess the impact of high-pressure processing (HPP) on the carotenoid profile, colour as well as the microbial and enzymatic stability of cloudy carrot juice. The predominant carotenoids in the fresh juices were by far the provitamin A carotenoids β-carotene and α-carotene. Others were ζ-carotene, phytofluene, phytoene and lutein. HPP at 300 MPa in three cycles caused the highest carotenoids degradation (41%) whereas the lowest degradation (26%) was achieved at 600 MPa. The highest inactivation of POD (31%) and PPO (57%) was achieved with 600 MPa and 300 MPa applied in three cycles, respectively what indicates that POD is more responsible for carot…
