Abstract:
... The plant cuticle, protecting against uncontrolled water loss, covers olive (Olea europaea) fruits and leaves. The present study describes the organ-specific chemical composition of the cuticular waxes and the cutin and compares three developmental stages of fruits (green, turning, and black) with the leaf surface. Numerous organ-specific differences, such as the total coverage of cutin monomeric ...

Abstract:
... Understanding the mechanisms regulating vegetative and reproductive growth is important for modelling purposes, as the partitioning of carbohydrates is dependent on phenology. In olive trees, floral buds undergo a winter endodormant state that is released once they have been exposed to long enough periods of chilling temperatures. Similarly, the apical vegetative buds stop their activity during wi ...

Abstract:
... The study was carried out in an olive grove located along the hills of northern Sicily where soil had been managed for decades by chemical weeding. Starting in 2008, one portion of the grove was left non-weeded, and the permanent grass cover was managed by mowing 2-3 times per year in winter and spring. In 2011, 2012 and 2013, yield, average drupe weight, percentage of drupe black color (veraison) ...
