Data on the seasonal patterns of fruit growth and dark respiration of two peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) cultivars were combined with temperature data to calculate the carbohydrate requirements of an "average" peach fruit from bloom to harvest. The two peach cultivars used were June Lady (an early maturing (mid-June) cultivar) and O'Henry (a late maturing (early-August) cultivar). At harves...

CO, exchange rales (CO, evolution) of late-maturing cv. Cai Red peaches, exposed lo different photon flux densities, were simulated from 24 days after flowering {DAF) until harvest by using light and temperature response curves measured on attached fruits in the field at biweekly intervals. The daily patterns of dark respiration rales per unil dry weight indicated their dependence on temperatur...

carbohydrate flow between vegetative and reproductive parts of trees is one of the determining factors of yield and fruit quality. therefore, it varies during different times of growth season. the aim of this study was to investigate the carbohydrate content variation during growth season between leaf and fruit of nectarine. so, eight nectarine trees cv. red gold selected randomly in the orchar...

The present study was focused to evaluate the phytochemical screening and biochemical estimation of ethanolic aqueous extracts edible nuts Arachis hypogea, Anacardium occidentale, Prunus dulcis Juglans regia. showed presence carbohydrate, protein, phenol tannin, flavonoid, glycoside, steroid, alkaloid in all studied nuts. quantification A. hypogeae, P. J. regia were performed determine total am...

Background and Objectives: Sarcopenia is explained as age-related reduction in muscle mass and performance. Some of the most important risk factors for sarcopenia include age, malnutrition, and sedentary life style. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of food intake and physical activity with body composition, muscle strength and muscle function in post-menopausal women. ...

Some olive cultivars possess high tendency to alternate bearing, which have a minus economic effect on olive industry. The experiment was performed in an olive orchard located in Shiraz region. Monthly monitoring of concentrations of unstructured carbohydrates (glucose, fructose, sucrose, mannitol and starch), protein, nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus in leaves, branches and roots of olive tr...
