In this research, a factorial 4×3×4 with 4 replications in Completely Randomized design was used to study the effects of different auxin treatments (4 levels), pH(2 levels) and cultivars (3 levels) on regeneration and rooting of in vitro shoot tips excised from shoots cultured on media supplemented with 1.5-2 mg/l BA. The results showed both auxins (NAA and IBA) produced callus in the bases of ...

A substantial area of the new almond plantations in Spain is under irrigation but because water scarcity, deficit (DI) strategies have to be adopted. This study assesses long-term sustainability different DI over 6 years (2014–2019) on a mature [Prunus dulcis (Mill) D.A. Web] orchard southern Spain. Four treatments were imposed: full (FI); two moderate DI, (SDIM) and (RDIM), where applied was 6...
