١ Physiology of carrot growth and development Introduction • Carrot (Daucus carota L. ssp. Sativus (Hoffm.) Schübl. & G. Martens) originates from the wild forms growing in Europe and southwestern Asia (Banga 1984). • The western type of cultivated carrot is thought to derive from the anthocyanin-containing forms found in Afghanistan. • The first cultivated carrot types were purple or violet; ye...

In total, 170 carrot lines developed in Korea were screened for resistance to Meloidogyne incognita race 1 to select parental genetic resources useful for the development of nematode-resistant carrot cultivars. Using the gall index (GI), gall formation was examined on carrot roots inoculated with approximately 1,000 second-stage juveniles of the nematode 7 weeks after inoculation. Sixty-one car...

Carrot (Dacus carota var. sativus) is one of the top-ten most economically important vegetable crops produced worldwide, and the root-knot nematodes, Meloidogyne spp., are one of the most important pests in the carrot. In Korea, M. hapla and M. incognita are presumed to be the major root-knot nematodes distributing mostly in open carrot fields and greenhouses, respectively. In our study, curren...

This study was conducted to determine that carrot powder obtain by different drying methods (oven and vacuum-freeze dryer) of carrot unfit for human consumption that whether feed additives in animal nutrition or not. Carrots randomly divided 2 groups. First group was dried by using oven, second group was by using vacuum freeze dryer methods. Dried carrot prepared from fresh carrot was analysed ...

Abstract Bali cattle are Indonesian native that preferred because they have adaptability and reproductive efficiency capabilities. The productivity of this cow can be increased using artificial insemination. success IB implementation is determined by the quality semen used. This article aims to provide an overview fresh semen, after dilution types diluents generally been used maintain spermatoz...

The effect of ultrasound treatments (40 kHz; 40, 50, or 60°C; 5 10 min) and thermal treatment (90°C; 30 s) on the stability parameters orange-carrot juice were evaluated. Microscopic structure, particle size distribution turbidity analyzed first day. Sedimentation cloudiness evaluated over 22 days storage at 7 25°C. Changes in microstructure disruption cell wall evidenced after 60°C/10 min. was...

Carrot seed oil is the source of the carotane sesquiterpenes carotol, daucol and beta-caryophyllene. These sesquiterpenic allelochemicals were evaluated against Alternaria alternata isolated from the surface of carrot seeds cultivar Perfekcja, a variety widely distributed in horticultural practise in Poland. Alternaria alternata is one of the most popular phytotoxic fungi infesting the carrot p...

Overview Each year the commercial carrot crop in Wisconsin suffers losses from alternaria leaf blight, cercospora leaf spot, and aster yellows. The first two are diseases caused by fungi (Alternaria dauci and Cercospora carotae). The third is a disease caused by the aster yellows phytoplasma, a parasitic bacterium of carrot phloem tissue and also of the aster leafhopper (Macrosteles quadrilinea...
