Crambe is now considered as an alternative to bioenergy crops and oleochemicals, because of its ability to acclimatise under inhospitable conditions. Despite the interest in the agronomic characteristics and applications of this crop, research on crambe is still scarce and has focused only on production, taking into account the phenological stages of this species. Therefore, a single criterion for quantifying the phenology of the species can be a useful tool for both researchers and growers. In the present study, a proposed scale of the phenological growth stages of crambe was applied according to the BBCH (Biologische Bundesanstalt, Bundessortenamt und Chemische Industrie) coding system. The phenological stages were described using the one- and two-digit decimal coding of the BBCH system and corresponded to stage 0: germination; stage 1: leaf development; stage 2: lateral sprout formation; stage 5: inflorescence emergence; stage 6: flowering; stage 8: fruit ripening and stage 9: senescence. Growth stages 3 and 4 (main stem elongation and development of collectable vegetative parts, respectively) have been omitted. Figures have been included to illustrate the main stages, and plant growth has been represented by a technical botanical illustration.

This study considered the differentiation of soil fertility parameters on layers through the root zone of two different soils and the quality and nutrient responses of three newly bred pomegranate varieties to soil fractions based on root architecture in clay and clay loam orchards. According to the findings, increasing clay content in the deeper layers has a negative impact on soil fertility, organic matter, phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). In clayey conditions, pomegranate varieties yielded lower in a range of 2.74% to 6.10% and significantly lower macro and micronutrient insertion. Conversely, the shallow-rooted variety accumulated significantly more boron (B) and P and set 50% more fruits in the clayey orchards. Soil fractions × root architecture significantly altered fruit quality characteristics, nutrient ingredients, and their relationships supported by a relatively low linear relationship in the Mantel test (<i>r</i> = 0.42). This study suggests that pomegranate tree responses to soil fractions are determined by root architecture.

Experimentally, cross-protection has been shown to apply to numerous virus and viroid species infecting numerous plant hosts, but the number of cases in which it has been successfully used for the control of the damage caused by viruses in crops is rather limited. Significant examples include citrus tristeza virus and zucchini yellow mosaic virus, and more recently, pepino mosaic virus (PepMV). PepMV is a pandemic virus affecting tomato crops worldwide. During the first decade of the current century, a number of mild PepMV isolates useful in cross-protection were identified and characterized. Soon after, cross-protection programs against PepMV were implemented in the Netherlands, Belgium, Morocco, and Spain. These programs were easily adopted by farmers, as no other efficient control methods were available and the losses caused by PepMV were unbearable for tomato producers. PepMV cross-protection has been working exceedingly well during this time, although the potential interaction of the PepMV mild isolates with the recently emerging tomato brown rugose fruit virus (ToBRFV) may be threatening its viability. In this review, we describe our experience in deploying cross-protection against PepMV in Spain.
