Crop Science, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 1749-1764, July-August 2015., 2015 ABSTRACT Our objective was to investigate the physiological basis of genetic progress in grain yield in CIMMYT spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars developed from 1966 to 2009 in irrigated, high‐potential conditions. Field experiments were conducted during three growing seasons in northwest Mexico (2008–2009, 2009–2010, and 2010–2011 ...

Detection of Counterfeit Tequila by Fluorescence Spectroscopy
Journal of Spectroscopy, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 An ultraviolet (UV) light induced fluorescence study to discriminate fake tequila from genuine ones is presented. A portable homemade system based on four light emitting diodes (LEDs) from 255 to 405 nm and a miniature spectrometer was used. It has been shown that unlike fake and silver tequila, which produce weak fluorescence signal, genuine mixed ...

Breeding for Yield Potential has Increased Deep Soil Water Extraction Capacity in Irrigated Wheat
Crop Science, Volume 53, Issue 5, Page 2090-2104, September-October 2013., 2013 ABSTRACT The global wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) growing area under irrigation has risen to approximately 20%. However, future availability and quality of irrigation water is likely to decline due to competition from the needs of the expanding population combined with the effects of climatic change. Recent genetic improvements of the yield of irrigated

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 1381-1397, November 2024.For hundreds of years, Agave marmorata plants have been used in the production of alcoholic beverages in Mexico. This species is very important in small‐scale rural economies because it is a large plant, yielding five liters of mezcal. However, the production of these beverages takes place when it reaches its reproductive stage, which takes up to 35 ...

Physiological Maturity in Wheat Based on Kernel Water and Dry Matter
Agronomy Journal, Volume 92, Issue 5, Page 895-901, September 2000., 2000 Estimation of the time of physiological maturity could be beneficial to avoid yield penalties due to lodging, sprouting, hail, and other harvest risks. The aim of our study was to evaluate a simple empirical relationship (model) to determine physiological maturity by simultaneously analyzing the water and dry matter dynamics of wheat kernels.

Yeast diversity in open agave fermentations across Mexico
Yeast, Volume 41, Issue 1-2, Page 35-51, January 2024.This study reports the isolation and identification of 4524 yeast strains from open agave fermentations in Mexico. A core set of six species is consistently found across diverse regions along with nonconventional yeasts of lower abundance, including two candidate new Pichia species.
