Abstract : "increasingly gaining interest in European viticulture. This investigation aimed (i) to obtain phenological observation datasets of PIWI cultivars across a broad set of European locations, (ii) to apply the temperature sum based “UniPhen” model allowing for a precise simulation of the phenological development at all BCCH stages between bud swelling and berries ripe for harvest and (iii) ...

Poster présenté dans le cadre des UrbAgri'nn Days, organisés par ISS Wasabi 2.0

[Disponible sur le site du Sillon Belge] Avec l’essor des matériaux biosourcés, un paillage d’un nouveau genre a récemment vu le jour en Belgique. En laine de mouton, il présente divers atouts que la Haute école Condorcet et le Carah ont évalués sur le terrain.

Abstract : Bitter vetch and sorghum grains are alternative local feed resources that are underutilized in the southern Mediterranean area. This study aimed to assess the effects of incorporating these grains into the diet of local goat breeds on growth performance, carcass characteristics, and meat quality. Twenty-four goat kids were divided into three groups. The control group received a conventional ...

Abstract : "Bitter vetch (Vicia ervilia (L.) Willd) is a promising legume, drought tolerant, mainly used in the Mediterranean area for its grains as a source of proteins in animal feed. However, it is an underused crop cultivated in marginal soils. Ecological, agro-morphological, and bromatological diversity evaluations were conducted to study its reintroduction potential. Seeds of seventeen ecotypes ...

Abstract : "Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is an oil-containing crop of great economic value but with considerable nitrogen requirement. Breeding root systems that efficiently absorb nitrogen from the soil could be a driver to ensure genetic gains for more sustainable rapeseed production. The aim of this study is to identify genomic regions that regulate root morphology in response to nitrate availability. ...

Article présenté le 16 mars 2023 dans le cadre de la 8e Journée de la Recherche en Haute Ecole. Disponible de la page 99 à la page 115. Extrait du résumé : L’impact de la viticulture sur l’activité biologique des sols est encore peu étudié à l’heure actuelle. Cette étude s’inscrit dans un contexte d’intérêt croissant pour la caractérisation de la vie des sols en agriculture et d’expansion rapide ...

"Sorghum Bicolor is a cereal used for grains as feed and food, mainly cultivated in dry areas. To study the possibilities of increasing its cultivation for feed purposes, ecological, morpho-agronomical, and bromatological characterization of some local ecotypes was conducted as the first steps toward selecting better cultivars. Indeed, twenty-one ecotypes were collected from farms in Northern Morocco ...

Abstract : "Body size is a trait that can affect plant–pollinator interaction efficiency and plant reproductive success. We explored the impact of intraspecific size shifts on the interactions between pollinators and flowering plants under controlled conditions. We considered two development conditions leading to the production of large and small individual flowers of Borago officinalis and Echium ...
