Soluble sugar and malic acid contents in mature fruits of 364 apple accessions were quantified using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Fructose and sucrose represented the major components of soluble sugars in cultivated fruits, whilst fructose and glucose were the major items of sugars in wild fruits. Wild fruits were significantly more acidic than cultivated fruits, whilst the av...

we sought to determine levels of oral bioaccessibility of hydroxymethylfurfural (hmf) from frequently consumed dried fruits in iran. fifty samples from frequently consumed types of dried fruits were analyzed for moisture, acidity and hmf content before and after in vitro digestion. besides, bioaccessibility of hmf in dried fruits using an in vitro gastrointestinal digestive model and hmf intake...

Tomato fruits grown in greenhouses were collected from Al–Karj region during summer 2008. Seven bacterial isolates that characterized as Gram negative, short rod–shaped, yellow-pigmented bacterium were isolated and recovered from the internal discoloration tissue of there collected fruits. Symptoms of infected fruits were blackening of the vascular vessels of tissue reached to seeds and lack an...

abstract strawberry is one of the most important fruit crops in the world. in this study, effect of different plant densities were studied on yield and fruit quality of strawberry 'selva' in greenhouse and laboratories of university college of agriculture and natural resources during 2002-2003. uniform stolens of strawberry were planted in holes of plastic column according to factorial in compl...

The date fruit, which is produced mostly in the hot arid regions of Southern Asia and North Africa, in large quantities, is marketed all over the world as an important crop. Date grading is an important process for producers and affects the fruit quality evaluation and export market. In this research Adaptive Network Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) was applied as a decision making technique to c...

Somaclonal variation has become common for many plant species including soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr). The present study was aimed to compare the morphological and yield characters of tissue culture derived and field grown soybean cultivar CO-3 (Coimbatore-3). With respect to the plants derived from tissue culture, the morphological characters such as length of roots, shoots, petioles, intern...

Abstract— Fossil fruits of Symplocos (Ericales: Symplocaceae) are here recognized from the Pliocene Guasca, Colombia, based on specimens formerly attributed to Cordia (Cordiaceae, Boraginales). vera (Berry) comb. nov. is represented by 19 lignitized fruits. The fossils as belonging primarily their woody endocarps that apically truncate and possess 3 5 apical germination pores locules, a central...

The aim of this study was to select pear cultivars with production stability for the environmental conditions in tropics. design randomized blocks 11 pear, four replications and plots consisting plants. Between 2015 2019, phenological were evaluated based on beginning, full bloom, end duration flowering harvest. number average fruit mass, yield per plant estimated also quantified. In last year ...
