VALIDACIÓN Y CALIBRACIÓN DE UN MODELO EPIDEMIOLÓGICO PARA PREDECIR EL MOTEADO DEL NÍSPERO CAUSADO POR Fusicladium eriobotryae EN SICILIA
2016
El moteado del níspero causado por Fusicladium eriobotryaees la principal enfermedad de este cultivo en la cuenca mediterránea, afectando principalmente a hojas y frutos. Recientemente, la biología del patógeno y la epidemiología de la enfermedad han sido estudiadas en profundidad, y los resultados obtenidos han permitido el desarrollo de un modelo epidemiológico “EriScab”, capaz de predecir la infección de frutos por conidios de F. eriobotryae. Este modelo, que utiliza como inputs variables meteorológicas, ha sido validado en la principal zona de cultivo de la provincia de Alicante, Callosa d’En Sarrià, sobre frutos de la variedad Algerie. El objetivo de este trabajo es: (i) evaluar la rob…

Growth, Yield and Fruit Quality of 'Peluche' Loquat under Windbreak Nets.
2011
The advantages of protecting 6-year-old ‘Peluche’ loquat trees (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl.) with nets were investigated in Sicily. Vegetative and reproductive growth were measured on 20 trees under net protection and 20 in open field conditions. A neutral, 50% windbreak net (yielding 70% of light penetration) was positioned around the field and above trees to cut down wind action and other occasional extreme atmospheric phenomena. Side openings were left on the nets to provide the entrance for pollinators. Compared to trees in the open field, trees under nets showed increased vigor (trunk cross-sectional area) and fruit growth (relative growth rate), and higher yields due also to larger fru…
