Sphingolipid long chain bases as mediators of cell death in olive fruit abscission.

Plant sphingolipids are lipophilic membrane components essential for different cellular functions but they also act as signaling molecules in various aspects of plant development. However, the interaction between plant sphingolipids and abscission remains largely uncharacterized. Here, the possible role of sphingolipids in regulating fruit abscission was examined in the abscission zone (AZ) of olive fruit.

Variations in Fruit Ploidy Level and Cell Size between Small- and Large-Fruited Olive Cultivars during Fruit Ontogeny.

Olive ( L.) is one of the major oil fruit tree crops worldwide. However, the mechanisms underlying olive fruit growth remain poorly understood.

Hormonal Content and Gene Expression during Olive Fruit Growth and Ripening.

The Rise and Fall of Financial Flows in EU 15: New Evidence Using Dynamic Panels with Common Correlated Effects.

This paper assesses capital mobility for a panel of 15 European countries for the period 1970-2019 using dynamic common correlated effects modeling as proposed in Chudik and Pesaran (J Econ 188(2):393-420, 2015). In particular, we account for the existence of cross section dependence, slope heterogeneity, nonstationarity and endogeneity in a multifactor error correction model (ECM) that includes one homogeneous break. The analysis also identifies the heterogeneous structural breaks affecting the relationship for each of the individual countries.

Characterization of Transcriptome Dynamics during Early Fruit Development in Olive ( L.).

In the olive ( L.), an economically leading oil crop worldwide, fruit size and yield are determined by the early stages of fruit development. However, few detailed analyses of this stage of fruit development are available.
