This present work presents a robust system for the feature reduction, using Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) primer. This system reaches up to 100% classes identification based on Support Vector Machines (SVM). In particular, the biochemical parameterization has 89 Random Amplified polymorphic DNA (RADP) primers of Pejibaye Palm races, and it has been reduced to 10 RADP primers. The development of t...

The selection of yeast strains adapted to fermentation stresses in their winegrowing area is a key factor produce quality wines. Twelve non-Saccharomyces native from Denomination Origin (D.O.) “Vinos de Madrid” (Spain), warm climate region, were tested under osmotic pressure, ethanol, and acidic pH stresses. In addition, mixed combinations between Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain practised. Phen...

1. INTRODUCTION The wine market is extraordinarily heterogeneous and qualitatively segmented. When it comes to wine, differentiating between price and quality is extremely complicated since it is inherently difficult to assess the quality of a wine, unlike other goods such as houses or cars. Generally speaking, assessing the quality of a wine is based on subjective judgements, which prevents it...

The Geographical Indication (IG) is an Industrial Property asset that relates and distinguishes the geographic origin of a product or service.

This study aims to provide overview deposits Indications in from publication Law nº 9.279, May 14, 1996, Law, recognition by National Institute Intellectual (INPI) between 1996 20...

This study explores the relationship between several personal religion-related variables and social behaviour, using three paradigmatic economic games: the dictator (DG), ultimatum (UG), and trust (TG) games. A large carefully designed sample of the urban adult population in Granada (Spain) is employed (N = 766). From participants' decisions in these games we obtain measures of altruism, bargai...

La Rioja is the region where the top rated wines from Spain come from and also the origin of one of the most prestigious wines in the world. It is worldwide recognized, not only for the quality of the vine, but also for the many factors involved in the process that are controllable by the farmer, such as fertilizers, irrigation, etc. Likewise, there are other key factors, which cannot be contro...

In this study the characterization of a total of 60 honey samples with Protected Denomination of Origin (PDO) collected over three harvests (2009-2011, inclusive), from the Northeast of Portugal was carried out based on the presence of pollen, physicochemical and microbiological characteristics. All samples were found to meet the European Legislation, but some didn't meet the requirements of th...
