En esta tesis doctoral se ha llevado a cabo la obtención y caracterización morfológica, fisiológica y molecular de una colección de germoplasma de variedades silvestres de olivo pertenecientes a las distintas subespecies de Olea europaea. Se realizaron prospecciones directas del material vegetal de partida (semillas procedentes de...

Wild subspecies of Olea europaea constitute a source of genetic variability with huge potential for olive breeding to face global changes in Mediterranean-climate regions. We intend to identify wild olive genotypes with optimal adaptability to different environmental conditions to serve as a source of rootstocks and resistance genes for olive...

Chloride (Cl–) has traditionally been considered harmful to agriculture because of its toxic effects in saline soils and its antagonistic interaction with nitrate (NO3–), which impairs NO3– nutrition. It has been largely believed that Cl– antagonizes NO3– uptake and accumulation in higher plants, reducing crop yield. However, we have recently...
