Virgin olive oil has a high resistance to oxidative deterioration due to both a triacylglycerol
composition low in polyunsaturated fatty acids and a group of phenolic antioxidants …

Fruits are one of the most important sources of polyphenols for humans, whether they are
consumed fresh or as processed products. To improve the phenolic content of fruits, a novel …

In this work we give an overview of both morphological characteristics and physiological
mechanisms responsible for the high adaptability of olive to harsh environments, and how …

Water has become the most precious of natural resources in many areas of Spain and, since
agriculture is the major consumer of water, improvements in water use efficiency are …

Important savings in the levels of irrigation without an associated penalty in yield have been
reported for olive under deficit irrigation strategies. Full irrigation (C), continuous deficit …

The evaluation of the influence of olive ripening degree on the stability of extra virgin olive
oils by the determination of the oxidative stability index, the DPPH• radical test, and the quali …

This study reports the HPLC profiles of phenolic compounds of virgin olive oils obtained from
young olive trees (Olea europaea L. cv. Arbequina) and how the application of a linear …

The olive tree is generally grown under rain-fed conditions. However, since the yield
response to irrigation, even with low amounts of water, is great there is increasing interest in …

Field-grown olive trees (Olea europaea L. cv. Leccino) were used over two growing seasons
to determine the effect of deficit irrigation regimes on virgin olive oil (VOO) quality. Drip …

This study examines deficit irrigation on greenhouse grown cucumber in the North China
Plain (NCP). The level of fulfillment of water requirements was used as a gauge to …
