Selenium biofortification and grafting modulate plant performance and functional features of cherry tomato grown in a soilless system
2021
Abstract Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element for humans due to its importance in a number of enzymes. Vegetable grafting is a valuable tool to overcome biotic and/or abiotic issues and to increase vigour, yield traits and fruit quality. The present work aimed at testing both different Se concentrations (0.0, 1.0, 2.0 and 4.0 μmol Se L−1) supplied via fertigation and grafting on cherry tomato in soilless culture. Se at 2.0 μmol L−1 improved total fruit yield by 60.0 % and 31.4 % in ungrafted and grafted plants, respectively as compared to the control. Marketable yield was positively affected by Se-biofortification and grafting. Se at 2.0 μmol L−1 improved N use efficiency by 60.3 % a…
Influence of Harvest Stage and Rootstock Genotype on Compositional and Sensory Profile of the Elongated Tomato cv. “Sir Elyan”

The present experiment addressed the effects of two harvest stages, namely breaker (S1) and turning (S2), on compositional and sensory profile of grafted, greenhouse elongated tomatoes cv. &ldquo
European traditional tomatoes galore: a result of farmers' selection of a few diversity-rich loci
2022
A comprehensive collection of 1254 tomato accessions, corresponding to European traditional and modern varieties, early domesticated varieties, and wild relatives, was analyzed by genotyping by sequencing. A continuous genetic gradient between the traditional and modern varieties was observed. European traditional tomatoes displayed very low genetic diversity, with only 298 polymorphic loci (95% threshold) out of 64 943 total variants. European traditional tomatoes could be classified into several genetic groups. Two main clusters consisting of Spanish and Italian accessions showed higher genetic diversity than the remaining varieties, suggesting that these regions might be independent seco…
Evaluación de la toxicidad y de la bioacumulación del Cu en un cultivo acumulador (Lactuca sativa L.) y otro no-acumulador (Solanum lycopersicum L.) …
2015
Las principales conclusiones de la presente Tesis son: 1. Los valores de toxicidad establecidos para los diferentes suelos cultivados con lechuga de las diferentes regiones agrícolas mediterráneas consideradas abarcaron rangos similares, siendo de 8 a 752 mgCu/kg en la región española y de 49 a 728 mgCu/kg en la australiana. En ambos casos, el valor máximo se obtuvo para el suelo con el mayor pH y el mayor contenido en arcilla, independientemente del tipo de suelo. Por tanto, estas dos propiedades edáficas son muy relevantes a la hora de analizar y evaluar la movilidad y la disponibilidad del Cu en el suelo. La diferencia entre los valores máximos obtenidos para cada área se puede deber al …

Interactive Effects of Genotype and Molybdenum Supply on Yield and Overall Fruit Quality of Tomato
2019
Molybdenum (Mo) is an essential trace element for plant growth, development, and production. However, there is little known about the function and effects of molybdenum in tomato plants. The present study assessed the influences of different Mo concentrations on four tomato F1 hybrids (“Bybal” F1, “Tyty” F1, “Paride” F1, and “Ornela” F1) grown using a soilless system with different Mo levels [0.0, 0.5 (standard NS), 2.0, and 4.0 μmol L−1, respectively]. The crop yield, plant vigor, fruit skin color, TA, fruit water content as well as the accumulation of SSC, and some antioxidant compounds such as lycopene, polyphenols and ascorbic acid were evaluated. The minerals concentration, including n…
