A First approach of using ultrasound as an alternative for blanching in vacuum-packaged potato strips
(2016-10-01)
Article
Open AccessThe effect of ultrasound (US) (40 kHz, 200 W, 3 min), blanching (85 °C, 3.5 min), and the combination of both methods was evaluated on the quality of vacuum-packaged potato strips stored at 3 ± 1 °C for up to 10 days. For ... -
Quantitative approach for the early detection of selection for virulence of Meloidogyne incognita on resistant tomato in plastic greenhouses
(2017-01-01)
Article
Open AccessResistant tomato cultivars are an important tool to control Meloidogyne spp., which cause the highest yield losses attributed to plant-parasitic nematodes. However, the repeated cultivation of Mi resistant cultivars can ... -
