The response of phenolic composition of skins from Vitis vinifera L. 'Tempranillo' and 'Graciano'
grapes to water-deficit irrigation during berry growth and ripening was evaluated. The …

Agricultural soils from many parts of the Mediterranean region are subjected to progressive
degradation. Application of sewage sludge provides not only a means for its disposal but …

In the present research we studied the photosynthetic traits and protective mechanisms
against oxidative stress in two maize (Zea mays L.) genotypes differing in chilling sensitivity (Z7, …

Here we report on the root hydraulic properties of intact and excised root systems of two maize
genotypes differing in chilling sensitivity (Z7, tolerant and Penjalinan, sensitive) subjected …

Berry organoleptic properties are highly influenced by ripening environmental conditions. In
this study, we used grapevine fruiting cuttings to follow berry ripening under different …

The expansion of the world’s population requires the development of high production
agriculture. For this purpose, it is essential to identify target points conditioning crop …

We have examined the influence of sewage sludge application on the capacity for acclimation
to drought of N 2 -fixing alfalfa plants (Medicago sativa L. cv. Aragón). Plants were grown …

The potential impact of different types of organic (sewage sludge) or inorganic (mineral
fertilizer) amendments to a basic soil was investigated under dry conditions. A soil incubation …

Greenhouse experiments were conducted to investigate the impact of predicted climate change
(elevated CO 2 , 700 μmol CO 2 mol −1 air vs. ambient; elevated temperature, 28/18C vs…

In Mediterranean areas of southern Europe growth of forages is seriously limited by the ability
of each species to growth during cold winter. Therefore, the objective of this work was to …
