Abstract Understanding the response of salt marshes to flooding is crucial foresee fate these fragile ecosystems, requiring an upscaling approach. In this study we related plant species and community multispectral indices aiming at parsing power remote sensing detect environmental stress due in lagoon marshes. We studied Salicornia fruticosa (L.) L. associated along a soil texture gradient nine northern Italy. considered (i.e., richness, dry biomass, height, matter content) individual traits...
Abstract The need to minimise the impact of phytosanitary treatments for disease control boosted researchers implement techniques with less environmental impact. development technologies using molecular mechanisms based on modulation metabolism by short dsRNA sequences appears promising. intrinsic fragility polynucleotides and high cost these can be circumvented nanocarriers that protect bioactive molecule enabling efficiency delivery leaf surface extending its half-life. In this work, a...
Nowadays, the use of biostimulants to reduce agrochemical input is a major trend in agriculture. In this work, we report on calcium phosphate particles (CaP) recovered from circular economy, combined with natural humic substances (HSs), produce plant biostimulant. CaPs were obtained by thermal treatment Salmo salar bones and subsequently functionalized HSs soaking HS water solution. The materials characterized, showing that functionalization did not sort any effect bulk physicochemical...
Plant phenotyping on morpho-anatomical traits through image analysis, from microscope images to large-scale acquisitions remote sensing, represents a low-invasive tool providing insight into physiological and structural trait variation, as well plant-environment interactions. High phenotype diversity in the genus Amaranthus includes annual weed species with high invasiveness impact important summer crops, nutritive grain or vegetable crops. Identification of leaf characters at very young...
