Nanotechnology is emerging as a very promising tool towards more efficient and sustainable practices in agriculture. In this work, we propose the use of non-toxic calcium phosphate nanoparticles doped with urea (U-ACP) for fertilization Triticum durum plants. U-ACP present similar morphology, structure, composition than amorphous precursor bone mineral, but contain considerable amount nitrogen adsorbed (up to ca. 6 wt % urea). Tests on plants indicated that yields quality crops treated at...

Components of resistance to the faba bean rust (Uromyces viciae-fabae) were studied at histological level in seedlings and adult plants nine (Vicia faba) lines differing their resistance. Resistance these was previously shown be characterized macroscopically by an increased latent period, a decreased colony size, relatively infection frequency. In some lines, also associated with visible necrosis. Histological investigations revealed few differences spore germination appressorium formation....

Crenate broomrape is a major constraint for legume production in Mediterranean and East Asian countries. Resistance to this parasitic weed scarce many legumes but common chickpea germ plasm. A detailed vitro study has shown that resistance the result of combination at least two mechanisms. First, most importantly, lines studied have been identified with low rates stimulant production. Once germination induced by exogenous applications synthetic GR24, thus overcoming primary mechanism these...

Summary The weedy root parasite Orobanche crenata constitutes a serious threat to lentils and other legumes grown in the Mediterranean western Asia. Control strategies have centred on agronomic practices use of herbicides. Resistance breeding is hampered by scarcity proper sources resistance reliable practical screening procedure. A stepwise procedure was used here. Spanish germplasm collection 234 accessions ( Lens culinaris ) screened for crenate broomrape under field conditions. wide...
