Assessment of the impact of the fumigant dimethyl disulfide on the dynamics of major fungal plant pathogens in greenhouse soils
(2016)Soil fumigants constitute a major tool for the control of soil borne fungal plant pathogens in protected crops. Dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) is a novel soil fumigant used either alone or in combination with other fumigants ... -
Atrazine, chlorpyrifos, and iprodione effect on the biodiversity of bacteria, actinomycetes, and fungi in a pilot biopurification system with a green cover
(2017)The use of biopurification systems can mitigate the effects of pesticide contamination on farms. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of pesticide dissipation on microbial communities in a pilot ... -
The beneficial endophytic fungus fusarium solani strain K alters tomato responses against spider mites to the benefit of the plant
(2018)Beneficial microorganisms are known to promote plant growth and confer resistance to biotic and abiotic stressors. Soil-borne beneficial microbes in particular have shown potential in protecting plants against pathogens ... -
Blame it on the metabolite: 3,5-dichloroaniline rather than the parent compound is responsible for the decreasing diversity and function of soil microorganisms
(2018)Pesticides are key stressors of soil microorganisms with reciprocal effects on ecosystem functioning. These effects have been mainly attributed to the parent compounds, while the impact of their transformation products ... -
Chemical composition and bioactive properties of: Sanguisorba minor Scop. under Mediterranean growing conditions
(2019)Sanguisorba minor Scop. is a perennial plant native to the Mediterranean region which exhibits several medicinal activities. In the present study, plant growth, chemical composition, and antitumor and antimicrobial properties ... -
The chemical composition, nutritional value and antimicrobial properties of: Abelmoschus esculentus seeds
(2017)Okra is a vegetable crop usually used for its immature pods. The harvest stage (fruit size) depends on consumers' preferences and the fruit that does not meet market requirements is being disposed of. Considering the short ... -
Coated Cu-doped ZnO and Cu nanoparticles as control agents against plant pathogenic fungi and nematodes
(2022)In the current study, coated copper nanoparticles with polyethylene glycol 8000 (Cu@PEG NPs) and copper-doped zinc oxide nanoparticles with diethylene glycol (Cu-doped ZnO@DEG NPs) have been synthesized via solvothermal ... -
A combination of hot water treatment and modified atmosphere packaging maintains quality of advanced maturity 'Caldesi 2000' nectarines and 'Royal Glory' peaches
(2005)Advanced maturity nectarines cv. Caldesi 2000 [Prunus persica var. nectarina (Ait.) Maxim.] and peaches cv. Royal Glory [Prunus persica (L.) Batch] were treated in 46°C hot water containing 200 mM NaCl for 25 min, sealed ... -
Effect of ozone on the microbiological status of five dried aromatic plants
(2018)BACKGROUND: Aromatic plants may be contaminated with a wide range of microorganisms, making them a potential health hazard when infused or added to ready-to-eat meals. To ensure safety, the effect of gaseous ozone treatment ... -
The effects of an olive fruit polyphenol-enriched yogurt on body composition, blood redox status, physiological and metabolic parameters and yogurt microflora
(2016)In the present study we investigated the effects of an olive polyphenol-enriched yogurt on yogurt microflora, as well as hematological, physiological and metabolic parameters, blood redox status and body composition. In a ... -
Effects of anti-drip cover materials on microclimate and production of a hydroponic cucumber crop
(2008)Recent year's concerns about food safety, environmental pollution, worker's safety, resistance to chemicals and the need for rational use of energy stimulated extensive research concerning the development of alternative ... -
Effects of anti-drip polyethylene covering films on microclimate and crop production
(2012)One important issue for greenhouse producers to deal with is the management of high humidity levels during the cold period of the year. High level of humidity is a factor that directly affects the fruit yield and quality ... -
Factors affecting biodiversity in agrosylvopastoral ecosystems with in the Mediterranean Basin: A systematic review
(2018)The biodiversity of Mediterranean agrosylvopastoral ecosystems has been extensively studied, because the Mediterranean Basin is a crossroad of biogeographical influences between cold temperate biota and subtropical species. ... -
