متن کاملThe effects of ethephon on biomass and carbohydrate content in two sweet sorghum cultivars
In this study, the effects of concentration and application time of ethephon on growth parameters; stem height, stem diameter, biomass, carbohydrate content; sucrose content, invert sugar, brix value, and juice volume of two sweet sorghum cultivars were determined. Three ethephon application time (8 leaves, booting, and flowering) and five ethephon concentrations (0, 200, 400, 600, and 800 ppm)...
متن کاملInfluence of Gene Dosage on Carbohydrate Synthesis and Enzymatic Activities in Endosperm of Starch-Deficient Mutants of Maize.
In cereals, starch is synthesized in endosperm cells, which have a ploidy level of three. By studying the allelic dosage of mutants affecting starch formation in maize (Zea mays L.) kernels, we determined the effect of down-regulated enzyme activity on starch accumulation and the activity of associated enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism. We found a direct relationship between the amount of star...
متن کاملProcessing of Sweet Corn
Sweet corn cobs constituting raw material for processing must be characterized by the highest quality of kernels. Kernel quality is defined not just by the chemical and sensory properties, but also by the mechanical parameters of kernels. This appears to fully justify joint consideration of all those properties. Sweet corn is probably a mutant of fodder corn (Orłowski, 2000). Significant differ...
متن کاملImprovement of Sweet Corn
L HE only genetic difference between the composition of a sweet corn kernel and that of field corn is due to a single recessive gene out of the hundreds or thousands of genes in corn. This gene makes the sugary condition of the kernel persist in sweet corn; or, in other words, prevents the conversion of some of the sugar into starch. The first recorded observation of sweet corn by w^hite men ap...
