Correlation and path coefficients analysis can help to assess the mutual relationship between various plant characters determines component on which selection be based or improvement in yield. 260 Mangalore melon vines were evaluated for yield contributing observe their associations, direct indirect effect fruit per vine at College of Horticulture, Bagalkot during summer 2021-2022. The study re...

We investigated the effect of cultivation system (conventional or organic), cooking method, and flesh color on the contents of ascorbic acid (AA) and total phenolics (TPs), and on total antioxidant activity (Trolox equivalents, TE) in Solanum tuberosum (potato) tubers. The research material, consisting of 4 potato cultivars, was grown in experimental fields, using organic and conventional syste...

cantaloupe is a common crop and relatively important in iran which show high genetic diversity. forty nine genotypes including seven iranian endemic cantaloupes rishbaba, shahabadi, samsori, dastjerdi, magasi, tiltorogh and savei and their direct and reciprocal crosses were evaluated during two years using triple lattice design. results indicated the positive and significant correlations betwee...

In our previous work we identified the presence of meso-zeaxanthin [(3R,3'S)-zeaxanthin] in trout flesh and skin (Nolan et al., 2014), but were not able to quantify this carotenoid with the method used at that time. In the present study, we developed a protocol that allows for the quantification of lutein and the three stereoisomers of zeaxanthin [(3R,3'R)-zeaxanthin, meso-zeaxanthin and (3S,3'...

the current experiment was carried out to evaluate qualitative and quantitativeof three melons (cucumis melo gp. ameri) accssions named zardjalal, ananasi and khanoti. the experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with 16 treatments and three replications at research field of jahad-e-daneshgahi, campus of agriculture and natural resources, university of tehran. five ...

BACKGROUND Ripening of fleshy fruit is a complex developmental process involving the differentiation of tissues with separate functions. During grapevine berry ripening important processes contributing to table and wine grape quality take place, some of them flesh- or skin-specific. In this study, transcriptional profiles throughout flesh and skin ripening were followed during two different sea...

in this study, proximate composition and sensory evaluation of giant gourami compared with rainbow trout and common carp. brightness (l*) was significantly higher than the other species and this leads to the highest score in sensory evaluation of the fillet color. moreover eci index of carp was significantly higher than that of the other two fish, in body part. between the species, hardness, ch...

Peach trees bear either white- or yellow-flesh fruit. We found that Japanese peach cultivars have two types of mutation in a carotenoid catabolic gene, CCD4: the insertion of a retrotransposon, and a frame shift in the microsatellite sequences of the first exon. CCD4 in yellow-flesh peaches was disrupted by these mutations.

The phenolic compounds of 'Green Gage' (GG) plums ( Prunus domestica L.), "Rainha Claudia Verde", from a 'protected designation of origin' (PDO), in Portugal, were quantified in both flesh and skin tissues of plums collected in two different orchards (GG-V and GG-C). Analyzes of phenolic compounds were also performed on another GG European plum obtained in France (GG-F) and two other French plu...
