Widespread Phytophthora infestations in European nurseries put forest, semi-nat...
Jung, Thomas; Orlikowski, L.; Henricot, B.; Abad-Campos, P.; Aday, A. G.; Aguin Casal, O.; Bakonyi, J.; Cacciola, S. O.; Cech, T.; Chavarriaga, D.An analysis of incidence of Phytophthora spp. in 732 European nurseries producing forest transplants, larger specimen trees, landscape plants and ornamentals, plus 2525 areas in which trees and shrubs were planted, is presented based on work conducted by 38 research groups in 23 European countries between 1972 and 2013. Forty-nine Phytophthora taxa were recorded in 670 nurseries (91.5%); within these nurseries,...
Temporal metabolic profiling of the Quercus suber-phytophthora cinnamomi system...
Hardoim, P.R.; Guerra, Rui Manuel Farinha das Neves; Rosa Da Costa, Ana; Serrano, M. S.; Sanchez, M. E.; Coelho, A. C.The oomycete Phytophthora cinnamomi is an aggressive plant pathogen, detrimental to many ecosystems including cork oak (Quercus suber) stands, and can inflict great losses in one of the greatest hotspots' for biodiversity in the world. Here, we applied Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy combined with chemometrics to disclose the metabolic patterns of cork oak roots and P.cinnamomi mycelium during t...
Thermogravimetric analysis of biowastes during combustion
Otero, M.; Sanchez, M. E.; Gómez, X.; Morán, A.The combustion of sewage sludge (SS), animal manure (AM) and the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) was assessed and compared with that of a semianthracite coal (SC) and of a PET waste by thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. Differences were found in the TG curves obtained for the combustion of these materials accordingly to their respective proximate analysis. Non-isothermal thermogravimetric data w...
