Hop (Humulus lupulus L.): Suitability of Traditional Cultivars to a Low-Trellis Farming System in a Semiarid Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Humulus lupulus is a dioecious twining herb, with an outstanding vertical development capacity. Hop plants are usually grown on trellises up to 4.5 6.0 m high, whose management requires intense use of water, fertilizers, pesticides, and labor. In semiarid Mediterranean areas, where native resources often scarce, the adoption low-trellis farming systems could be sustainable option for hop cultivation. With aim evaluating suitability cultivation in environment, 2018 2019 three traditional genotypes (‘Cascade’, ‘Chinook’, ‘Nugget’) were grown, their rate was evaluated put relation plants’ cone, root, biomass yield. Moreover, organic (fragmented pine bark) synthetic [black polyethylene (PE) plastic film] mulches applied same cultivars, both epigeal hypogeal evaluated. The results showed that faster growth first two phases plant elongation (up 50% height upper wire), lower yield cones total biomass. A fast instead associated higher production. Mulching able significantly affect biomass, specifically cv. Cascade, mulching allowed significant root increases. analysis obtained hop’s system highly variable among varieties environment.

Predicting Offspring Performance in Hop (Humulus lupulus L
J. Am. Soc. Brew. Chem. 68(3):125-131, 2010 Genetic information for male and female hop accessions is limited, hampering parental selection to maximize offspring productivity. Our objective was to determine whether amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP)derived genetic distance (GDmm) estimates and coancestry estimates from pedigrees (GSped) between parental pairs could be used to predict...

An isotope dilution method using [1-(13)C]sodium (Na) acetate was conducted to determine the effect of feeding hop (Humulus lupulus L.) residues on plasma acetate metabolism in six adult crossbred sheep. The sheep were fed 63 g/kg BW(0.75)/d of either mixed hay (MH-diet) of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) and reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea L.) at a 60:40 ratio or MH-diet and hop-re...

Hops (Humulus lupulus L. Cannabaceae) is an economically important crop, that has drawn more attention in recent years due to its potential pharmaceutical applications. Bitter acids (prenylated polyketides) and prenylflavonoids are the primary phytochemical components that account for hops resins medicinal value. We have previously reported on utilizing untargeted NMR and MS metabolomics for an...

Nowadays, the world hop industry is faced with one of the biggest crisis in the history. Permanent decrease of hopping rates in the world beer industry during last 20 years caused many problems to hop producers all around the world. It resulted in the huge surpluses of hop stocks between years 2008 and 2010, the ages known as “years of famine” for hop farmers. Th e hop contains some compounds h...
