How change Biblatex references to my own style?

Question

I'm very new using Latex (TeXShop 4.25) and while I have been writing my thesis I had some problems with my references. I'm using biblatex and Biber and I need the references as follows:

Author.(year)"Title". Journal;volume(number):pages.

For example:

Baldwin I., Halitschke R., Paschold A., von Dahl CC. y Preston CA. (2006) “Volatile signaling in plant–plant interactions:‘talking trees’ in the genomics era”. Science; 311(5762):812-815.

The closest style that I found is authoryear, and this is the code that I made:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[backend=biber,
            style=authoryear,
            sorting=nyt,
            sortlocale=de_DE,
            natbib=true,
            url=false,
            doi=false,
            isbn=false,
            maxcitenames=2, 
            maxbibnames=9, 
            eprint=false]
            {biblatex} ç
\addbibresource{References.bib}
\begin{document}
\cite{baldwin06}
\printbibliography
\end{document}

And this is what the programs print me:

Baldwin, I.T, Halitschke R., Anja P., von Dahl C.C. and Preston C. A. (2006). Volatile Signaling in Plant-Plant Interactions: Talking Trees in the Genomics Era.Science 311, 5762, pags. 812-815.

As you may notice I want to

• eliminate the first comma ("Baldwin, I.T"),
• put the title in double quotes,
• put a semicolon after journal,
• print the number in parenthesis after volume and
• show a colon before the pages.

Does anyone know how to customize this reference?

Answer 1

Here is a solution:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{References.bib}
    @article{baldwin06,
    Author = {Baldwin, I. and Halitschke, R. and Paschold, A. and von Dahl, C.C. and Preston, C.A.},
    Journal = {Science},
    Number = {5762},
    Pages = {812--815},
    Title = {Volatile signaling in plant–plant interactions:‘talking trees’ in the genomics era},
    Volume = {311},
    Year = {2006}}
\end{filecontents}
% Baldwin I., Halitschke R., Paschold A., von Dahl CC. y Preston CA. (2006) “Volatile signaling in plant–plant interactions:‘talking trees’ in the genomics era”. Science; 311(5762):812-815.
