Over the last new decade, there has been a strong interest in landraces and historical wheat varieties from farmers, manufacturers consumers. They are agronomically nutritionally interesting but supply chain (from seed to end-product) is not solid traceable. High molecular weight glutenins (HMW-GS) can act as markers trace varietal correspondence verify genetic purity of grain consequently flou...

Root hairs are fast growing, ephemeral tubular extensions of the root epidermis. They arise in the unsuberized maturation zone of the root, effectively increasing the root surface area in the region over which nutrient and water uptake occur. Variation in root hair length (RHL) between varieties has been shown to be genetically determined, and could, therefore, have consequences for nutrient ca...

The recently developed Inter-Simple Sequence Repeat PCR (ISSR-PCR) or microsatellite primed PCR or Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR)-Anchored PCR technique detects polymorphic markers in a wide variety of genomes. Usually the ISSR primers are either 5' end-labeled with gamma[32P]ATP or one of the alpha[32P] labeled dNTPs is added to the PCR reaction and the PCR products are resolved on PAGE and auto...

The results of a comparative study the quality blackcurrant juices five varieties ARSRIFCB breeding suitable for industrial commercial use are presented: Azhurnaya, Orlovskaya Serenada, Orlovsky Vals, Ocharovanye, Chudnoye Mgnovenye. sensory profiles and their relation to scoring varietal characteristics were studied. An analysis qualities mono-varietal showed that they largely depend on charac...

English for Research Publication Purposes (ERPP) is a sub-field of Academic (EAP), itself applied linguistics. This article considers ERPP from world Englishes perspective, considering the question as to what sort appropriate ERPP: standardised model, preferred at present, or varietal, Englishes, which would take more account fact that majority scholars publishing their work in are no longer An...

The conservation of crop genetic resources requires understanding the different variables-cultural, social, and economic-that impinge on crop diversity. In small-scale farming systems, seed exchanges represent a key mechanism in the dynamics of crop genetic diversity, and analyzing the rules that structure social networks of seed exchange between farmer communities can help decipher patterns of...

Researchers are currently developing new value-added uses for almond shells, an abundant agricultural by-product. Almond varieties are distinguished by processors as being either hard or soft shelled, but these two broad classes of almond also exhibit varietal diversity in shell morphology and physical characters. By defining more precisely the physical and chemical characteristics of almond sh...

Lonicera macranthoides is an important traditional Chinese herb. The lack of information regarding the genetic structure and genetic relationships among its cultivars has hindered the conservation and utilization of this resource. This study used start codon targeted markers to assess the genetic diversity and other genetic characteristics of five single-variety L. macranthoides populations in ...

The effects of four vine treatments, comprising the application of eugenol and guaiacol (individually or as a mixture) or whiskey lactones on the concentration of glycosidically bound aroma precursors, determined as glycosyl glucose content by HPLC-IR, in Monastrell grapes and their wines were studied. The impact of treatments on the free varietal wine aroma determined by SBSE-GC-MS and descrip...

We aimed to establish standards for tobacco Valor de Cultivo e Uso (VCU) in Brazil. We obtained information regarding the size and design of plots of two varietal groups of tobacco (Virginia and Burley). Ten inbred lines of each varietal group were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with four replications. The plot contained 42 plants with six rows of seven columns each. For each e...
