The compounds from the groups of terpenes, C13 norisoprenoids and benzene compounds are the main responsible for the aroma of the grapes, generally contributing floral and fruity notes to them. The foliar application in the vineyard of biostimulants is a proposed tool to increase the quality of the grapes.
Thus, in this work, a foliar application has been carried out on Tempranillo Blanco vines to increase its volatile composition, since, despite being a new variety with high oenolog...

Fruit fly monitoring using effective attractants is a key tool in the integration of pest control strategies.
The present study compared the capture efficacy of Anastrepha obliqua using six attractants that are commercially available in Mexico. In three field experiments in mango var. manila orchards, CeraTrap®, an attractant comprising enzymatically-hydrolyzed animal proteins, was significantly more effective than chemically-hydrolyzed proteins mixed with borax (Captor 300...

Copper compounds are effective in controlling the main leaf and fruit diseases in the olive tree, being repilo one of the most widespread and with the highest level of affectation.
Currently, however, the European Union has established a limitation on the amount of copper to be applied per hectare and year, which has motivated the search for alternative active materials to copper or formulations with a low content of this element.
The SinerJet®-Cu product manufactured by Bio...

Herbicides, commonly used in agriculture to control weeds, often cause negative effects on crops. Safeners are applied to reduce the damage to crops without affecting the effectiveness of herbicides against weeds. Plant biostimulants have the potential to increase tolerance to a series of abiotic stresses, but very limited information exists about their effects on herbicide-stressed plants.
This study aims to verify whether the application of a potential safener such as Terra-Sorb®,...
