Asparagus decline syndrome (ADS) poses a critical challenge to the productivity and quality of asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.), threatening sustainability its cultivation. This study evaluated impact ADS over four years in Western Europe by comparing soils with without history syndrome. The results revealed consistent reduction yield, losses 36% 2019 2020 23% 2021 compared for control soils. also increased proportion non-commercial spears, peaking at 52% 2020. Key parameters were...
Abstract BACKGROUND Biostimulants are increasingly integrated into production systems with the goal of modifying physiological processes in plants to optimize productivity. Specifically, l ‐α‐amino acid‐based biostimulants enhance plant productivity through improved photosynthesis and increased assimilation essential nutrients such as nitrogen (N). This element is a major component fertilizers, which usually applied excess. Thus, inefficient use N fertilizers has generated serious...
Asparagus decline syndrome (ADS) is a major challenge affecting asparagus production, leading to reduced yield and spear quality. This study evaluated the effectiveness of different control strategies, including biosolarization with Brassica carinata seed pellets, chicken manure chemical disinfection Dazomet. Field trials were conducted over three consecutive years assess their impact on commercial yield, quality, plant performance. Biosolarization B. pellets increased by 17% number spears...
Abstract BACKGROUND Asparagus decline syndrome (ADS), one of the most important diseases affecting asparagus crops, causes yield losses worldwide. Fusarium proliferatum , F. oxysporum and redolens are among main species associated with ADS. To explore their potential inoculum sources effectiveness soil disinfestation practices for ADS management, molecular methods based on a quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were developed. qPCR‐based tools demonstrated advantages in...
Calcium (Ca) is an important macronutrient for plants, although its low mobility through the phloem makes more difficult translocation to growing tissues, including fruits. The blossom end rot (BER) physiopathy occurs mainly in fruits and associated with water stress, especially Ca levels, which has a very negative effect on production of many crops. Currently, vectoring process, it possible increase transport immobile elements objective this study evaluate BRANDT® MANNI-PLEX® Ca, contains...
Green asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) is a widely grown and consumed crop which provides high-level nutritional interest. In recent years, the decline syndrome in plantations has been rapidly augmenting. This causes early death of whole plants, also negatively affecting new replanting. Decline notable economic losses sector. The objective this work was to verify effect different treatments against on physiological parameters quality spears. To meet objective, four were applied plots...
Salinity is a serious issue for crops, as it causes remarkable yield losses. The accumulation of Na+ affects plant physiology and produces nutrient imbalances. Plants trigger signaling cascades in response to stresses which phytohormones Ca2+ are key components. Cation/H+ exchangers (CAXs) transporters involved fluxes cells. Thus, enhanced CAX activity could improve tolerance salinity stress. Using the TILLING (targeting induced local lesions genomes) technique, three Brassica rapa mutants...
