Microsatellite loci were identified from Cornus kousa'National'. Primer pairs for 86 loci were developed and of these, eight were optimized and screened using genomic DNA from 22 kousa cultivars. All optimized loci were polymorphic and the number of alleles per locus ranged from three to 17. Observed heterozygosity ranged from 0 to 0.3 and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.38 to 0.91. These...

Turkey has a very rich flora due to diverse climatic and topographic conditions within the country. Cornelian cherry (Cornus mas L.) is an important wild edible fruits widely distributed in well known for its fruit antioxidants nutrients. In this study, phytochemical content of number genotypes Erzincan region were determined. The biochemical analysis included organic acids, sugars, vitamin C, ...

The photosynthetic efficiency of Cornus controversa leaves was decreased significantly under Cd treatment while it was not affected by Pb exposure. Cd decreased while Pb treatment increased the chlorophyll contents of Cornus controversa leaves. Furthermore, the peroxidase (GPX) activities were decreased after Cd treatment while elevated by Pb exposure in Cornus controvera seedlings. In addition...

background: cornus mas l, an olive-shaped red-colored single-seeded fruit, is used in traditional medicine in different parts of europe and asia. objectives: in the present study, 40 male wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups, and the effects of 21 days of intraperitoneally (ip) administration of 50, 200 and 400 mg/kg body weight of c. mas hydro-methanolic extract on the rats hemat...

In this study, the effect of incorporation plant extracts in a natural casing on color and sensory attributes fermented sausages, “sucuk” type, was evaluated. The sausages were produced industrial conditions, stuffed into pretreated casings, vacuum packaged, stored at 4˚C for six months. Five groups tested, C1 (natural without treatment), C2 (treated with 6% (v/v) ethanol), C3 ascorbic acid), A...
