New insight into the history of domesticated apple: secondary contribution of the European wild apple to the genome of cultivated varieties Instituut voor Landbouw-, Visserij- en Voedingsonderzoek
The apple is the most common and culturally important fruit crop of temperate areas. The elucidation of its origin and domestication history is therefore of great interest. The wild Central Asian species Malus sieversii has previously been identified as the main contributor to the genome of the cultivated apple (Malus domestica), on the basis of morphological, molecular, and historical evidence. The possible contribution of other wild species ...

Protection of apple and pear flowers against fire blight infections using biocontrol organisms applied via bumble bees Instituut voor Landbouw-, Visserij- en Voedingsonderzoek
when Erwinia amylovora bacteria colonize the stigma and subsequently reach, due to rain or
dew droplets, the flower hypanthium where they penetrate the openings of the nectary or
nectarthodes. First the flowers necrotize then the peduncles, the shoots and finally the
complete stem. While the disease gradually spreads through the tissues, ooze ...

A Delphi-based expert judgment method applied to the validation of a mature Agile framework for Web development projects Vrije Universiteit Brussel

However, organizations are reluctant to invest without the firm guarantee that they will be returned the entire expended amount of money. For this purpose, expert judgment techniques are very useful to provide a less-costly initial validation that, when positive, may encourage organizations to use these new proposals. Therefore, the primary goal of ...
