Monitoring and evaluation of landscape fragmentation is important in numerous research areas, such as natural resource protection management, sustainable development, climate change. One the main challenges image classification intricate selection parameters, optimal combination significantly affects accuracy reliability final results. This aimed to analyze change northwestern Peru. We utilized accurate land cover use (LULC) maps derived from Landsat imagery using Google Earth Engine (GEE)...

The genus Beauveria is considered a cosmopolitan anamorphic and teleomorphic of soilborne necrotrophic arthropod-pathogenic fungi that includes ecologically economically important species. Species identification in difficult because its structural simplicity the lack distinctive phenotypic variation. Therefore, use multi-locus sequence data essential to establish robust species boundaries addition DNA-based delimitation methods using genetic distance, coalescent, genealogical concordance...

The increasing demand for tropical timber from natural forests has reduced the population sizes of native species such as Cedrela spp. because their high economic value. To prevent decline species, all have been incorporated into Appendix II Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). study presents information about modeled distribution genus Peru that aims to identify potential habitat genus, its availability areas protected by national service...

The evaluation of suitable landfill sites is a complex process and requires various legislative, technical, social, environmental criteria. Therefore, this study provides management tool for identifying landfills through the integrated use analytic hierarchy (AHP), geographic information systems (GISs), remote sensing (RS). Accordingly, fourteen subcriteria were identified grouped into physical (7), (3), socioeconomic (4) criteria weighed using pairwise comparison matrices (PCMs). weighted...

Careful landfill selection with minimal environmental impact is vital for urban planners. This study aims to identify suitable sites controlled landfills using Fuzzy-AHP integrated Remote Sensing and GIS, considering a 20-year projection of population solid waste generation. Initially, twelve sub-criteria were identified, grouped into environmental, socio-economic, physical categories, then weighted paired comparison matrices involving nine experts. The rasterized classified four suitability...

Direct somatic embryogenesis represents a fundamental tool for obtaining genetically homogeneous clones; however, its commercial scaling faces critical challenges at various stages of the process. In this study, protocol is standardized induction and germination embryos from leaf segments, rooting, acclimatization four Coffea arabica hybrids: Casiopea, Excelencia, H3, Milenio. The results show that Casiopea Excelencia hybrids achieve highest rates (71.64% 74.43%) embryo production (8.74 10)...

This study seeks to examine the factors affecting adoption of SAPs and their intensity use at smallholder household level in four coffee producer districts Luya, Amazonas, Peru, based on cross-sectional survey data obtained from 145 sampled households, six farmer interviews, three expert interviews. Despite benefits Sustainable Agricultural Practices (SAPs), rate among small-scale farmers is still low developing countries like Peru. The results showed that adopted different according several...

Pitahaya (Hylocereus megalanthus), commonly known as dragon fruit, is grown in tropical areas and has a promising future the world market. At present, it crop developed by small-scale farmers. However, finding optimal for installing this major challenge. In study, we evaluated suitability of land pitahaya cultivation department Amazonas using integrated multi-criteria techniques such geographic information systems (GISs) remote sensing (RS). The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method was...

The increasing demand for food and energy presents challenges agricultural sustainability, especially in regions with limited arable land. This study analyzed the productivity morphological adaptations of Phaseolus vulgaris L. agrivoltaic systems using monofacial, bifacial, semi-transparent photovoltaic technologies under high Andean climatic conditions Chachapoyas, Amazonas, Peru. evaluated varieties, Panamito Chaucha, were cultivated planting distances 25 cm 35 cm. variables included plant...

Remote sensing is essential in precision agriculture as this approach provides high-resolution information on the soil’s physical and chemical parameters for detailed decision making. Globally, technologies such remote machine learning are increasingly being used to infer these parameters. This study evaluates soil fertility changes compares them with previous fertilization inputs using multispectral imagery situ measurements. A UAV-captured image was predict spatial distribution of...

Theobroma cacao is the most economically important species within genus Theobroma. Despite its importance, intraspecific relationships of this has not been fully elucidated due to insufficient molecular information. To facilitate a better understanding evolutionary T. cacao, Sequencing technology decode plastid genomes, with objective identify potential DNA barcode genetic markers, explore relationships, and infer divergence times. The genome seven cocoa genotypes analyzed in study,...

In this research, species distribution prediction models (i.e., MaxEnt) were applied to analyze the suitability of ecological environment among clades genus Gynoxys in Peru. Bioclimatic, edaphic, and topographic variables integrated predict areas with most significant potential for optimal development genus. These data combined generate maps, taking into account relevant each clade. The validation MaxEnt model showed an outstanding performance, reaching AUC indices above 0.9, reflecting high...

Peruvian aquaculture, specifically trout production, has had significant growth over the past ten years. However, establishment and expansion of small-scale aquaculture have been carried out without considering suitability land. In Peru, such land studies yet to be reported. Therefore, a methodological framework is presented for inland which may replicated, with necessary complements, entire Fisheries Aquaculture sector in Peru. This work modeled sustainable rainbow Molinopampa district...

Cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) is the basis of lucrative confectionery industry with “fine or flavour” cocoa attracting higher prices due to desired sensory and quality profiles. The Amazonas Region (north Peru) has a designation origin, Fine Aroma Cacao, based on quality, productivity morphological descriptors but its genetic structure ancestry underexplored. We genotyped 143 trees from northern Peru (Bagua, Condorcanqui, Jaén, Mariscal Cáceres, Utcubamba; mainly Region), using 192 single...
