Experimental branch cooling increases foliar sugar and anthocyanin concentrations in sugar maple at the end of the growing season
Autumnal leaf anthocyanin expression is enhanced following exposure to a variety of environmental stresses and may represent an adaptive benefit of protecting leaves from those stresses, thereby allowing for prolonged sugar and nutrient resorption. Past work has shown that experimentally induced sugar accumulations following branch girdling triggers anthocyanin biosynthesis. We hypothesized tha...
متن کاملEffects of Foliar Application of Potassium and Zinc on Pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) Fruit Yield
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of foliar applications of potassium and zinc on the fruit yield and quality as well as leaf nutrient concentrations of pistachio cv. ‘Chrokeh’. The experiment was conducted based on a completely randomized block design with nine treatments and three replications per treatment. Treatments were three levels of K2SO4 (0, 1 and 2%) and thre...
متن کاملCharacterisation of genes encoding key enzymes involved in sugar metabolism of apple fruit in controlled atmosphere storage.
Sugars are essential contributors to fruit flavour. Controlled atmosphere (CA) storage has been proved to be beneficial for maintaining harvested fruit quality. To explore regulatory mechanism of sugar metabolism in fruit stored in CA condition, we cloned several genes, encoding key enzymes, involved in sugar metabolism in apple fruit, and analyzed sugar contents, along with gene expression and...
متن کاملSugar content and activity of sucrose metabolism enzymes in milled rice grain.
Most rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars grown in the United States were selected for endosperm starch properties and not soluble sugar content. The minor pool of soluble sugar may affect the qualities of rice as a food. Some cultivar variation in soluble sugar content was detected in milled grain, essentially the starchy endosperm, of long grain varieties. Milled grain of cultivars Lemont and Tex...
متن کاملSugar and Sugar Alcohol Levels in the Aging Rat Lens.
Fructose and sorbitol accumulate in the aging rat lens, the levels rising from values of 7 and 17 mg. per 100 Gin. wet lens weight, respectively, in weanlings, to 27 and 34 mg. per 100 Gm. in 200-day-old animals. The formation of fructose and sorbitol from glucose via the sorbitol pathway apparently decreases with age. Penetration of the lens in vitro by fructose-U-C-14 decreases with age. Furt...
