ABSTRACT New cultivars generated each year by international breeding programs enter the Brazilian market. These need to be tested for their adaptation climate in environment due great variety of climates that exist country. Strawberry is a highly appreciated fruit its biochemical and sensory characteristics considered most important berry. The objective this study was determine physical, bioche...

The olive tree is an iconic in the Mediterranean region, traditionally cultivated under rainfed conditions; however, cultivars are also found outside region and widely used for oil production. However, with increasing aridity global changes, agroecosystems facing sustainability challenges. This study aims to evaluate effect of two deficit irrigation strategies on agronomic productive parameters...

introduction: marginal adaptation of cast restorations is essential for their long-term success. as dentists usually assign ditching of dies to laboratory technicians, and ditching has a significant effect on marginal adaptation, the aim of this study was to compare ditching by laboratory technicians and standard approach on marginal adaptation of cast restoration. materials and methods: in thi...

most people have experienced anxiety in their lives. anxiety is necessary to continue the life but intense anxiety can be reduced person’s efficiency and avoided rational thinking and decision making. the goal of this study was to determine the relationship between levels of anxiety and social adaptation in female students of science and research branch, islamic azad university, tehran, iran. 1...

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera) is routinely grafted, and rootstocks inducing drought tolerance represent a source for adapting vineyards to climate change in temperate areas. Our goal was to investigate drought stress effects on microRNA (miRNA) abundance in a drought-resistant grapevine rootstock, M4 (Vitis vinifera3Vitis berlandieri), compared with a commercial cultivar, Cabernet Sauvignon, using...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Accurate quantifications of plant responses to photoperiod are useful for physiological studies, in growth modelling and in other studies of environmental effects. The objective of the current work was a mathematical description of photoperiodic influence on plant morphological traits, using functions with few and common parameters related to key plant characteristics and ty...

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera) is routinely grafted, and rootstocks inducing drought tolerance represent a source for adapting vineyards to climate change in temperate areas. Our goal was to investigate drought stress effects on microRNA (miRNA) abundance in a drought-resistant grapevine rootstock, M4 (Vitis vinifera × Vitis berlandieri), compared with a commercial cultivar, Cabernet Sauvignon, usi...

Physical dormancy, a structural feature of the seed coat known as hard seededness, is an important characteristic for adaptation of plants against unstable and unpredictable environments. To dissect the molecular basis of qHS1, a quantitative trait locus for hard seededness in soybean (Glycine max (L) Merr.), we developed a near-isogenic line (NIL) of a permeable (soft-seeded) cultivar, Tachina...
