Grapes (Vitis vinifera) are of great economic importance worldwide. We genetically dissected a table grape breeding population, using hidden Markov models (HMM) applied to quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses. We evaluated and dissected the following traits: total number of clusters, leaf score, peduncle length, cluster length, number of berries, weight of 10 berries, average seed number, na...

Polyphenolic profiles in the berry samples of 344 European grape (Vitis vinifera) cultivars were evaluated for two consecutive years. These cultivars represent a diverse collection of V. vinifera germplasm maintained at the USDA-Agricultural Research Service Vitis Clonal Repository in Davis of California, USA. A total of 36 polyphenolic compounds, including 16 anthocyanins, 6 flavonols, 6 flava...

purpose weight loss in wrestling has been found to be an interesting issue for researchers. in this regard, complications of weight loss in wrestlers before the competitions and their weight gain in course of competitions have been debated in previous studies. the objective of this study was to investigate the extent of weight gain and to estimate the percentage of body fat in participants in t...

Environmental variance components were estimated for berry ripening time (BRT), berry weight (BW), soluble solids concentration (SSC), titratable acidity (TA), and deformation at the ®rst major peak (DFP) and maximum force (MF) in penetration tests of berry ̄esh in grapes (Vitis vinifera L. and V. labruscana Bailey). The variance among berries within clusters was largest among environmental var...

a prospective study of 550 consecutive mothers delivered in amin ob. gyn center of isfahan university was performed to determine the relationships between maternal anemia, placental weight and neonatal birth weight. the important findings were marked placental hypertrophy in anemic mothers. (r= -/9.95) .it is probable that in anemic mothers placental hypertrophy is a compensatory mechanism resp...
