Plant material Olives from three different cultivars (Ottobratica, Roggianella and Sinopolese) were collected from organic olive grove placed in southern Italy, in Calabria region, near the town of Delianuova (38°1458.0“N; 15°5509.8“E), on the slopes of Aspromonte mountain massif (elevation ca. 600 m). Olives used for behavioural assays and GC-MS analyses were collected in November 2017 from […] More
General approach To produce fine-grain climate velocity measures, we modelled monthly temperature and precipitation data averaged for the period from 1981 to 2010 at a resolution of 50-m, incorporating the physiographic effects of solar radiation and cold-air pooling. Based on these data, we calculated estimates for the annual temperature sum above 5 °C (growing degree days, […] More
