Assessment of physicochemical parameters in two winegrapes varieties after foli...
Daccak, Diana; Lidon, Fernando C.; Coelho, Ana Rita F.; Luís, Inês Carmo; Marques, Ana Coelho; Pessoa, Cláudia Campos; Brito, Maria da GraçaOne-third of the world’s population is suffering from “hidden hunger” due to micronutrient deficiency. Zinc is acquired through diet, leading its deficiency to the development of disorders such as retarded growth, anorexia, infections, and hypogeusia. Accordingly, this study aimed to develop an agronomic workflow for Zn biofortification on two red winegrapes varieties (cv. Castelão and Syrah) and determine the ...
Calcium biofortification of Rocha pears, tissues accumulation and physicochemic...
Pessoa, Cláudia Campos; Lidon, Fernando C.; Coelho, Ana Rita; Caleiro, João; Marques, Ana Coelho; Luís, Inês Carmo; Kullberg, José CarlosLow dietary intake of Ca in humans has been epidemiologically linked to various diseases, which can have serious health consequences over time. Accordingly, the development of an agronomic itinerary for Ca biofortification of Rocha pears and the assessment of physicochemical deviations prompted this study. Two orchards with contrasting soil and water characteristics were selected, characterized through orthopho...
