Abstract: Introduction: Cancer, a fatal disease, is the second leading cause of death reason exceeded only by cardiovascular disease. Breast cancer is common well known cancers in woman and is the second leading cause of death after lung cancer. In recent years researchers have focused on diet based on herbal medicine for the prevention and treatment of certain types of cancer. Methods: In th...

In this study, the effect of postharvest coating chitosan (CH) 1.0%, gum ghatti (GG) 1.0% and combine each other, on nutritional properties, phenolic compounds antioxidant capacity ‘Rishbaba’ grape (Vitis vinifera L.) was evaluated during 60 days cold storage. Coating with CH solely or in combined GG caused a considerable retain berries acids compared to uncounted samples after 60th day. Moreov...

This year six crosses for Pierce’s disease (PD) resistant table and raisin grapes using seedless parents were made, resulting in 2,398 ovules and 747 embryos. These crosses were based on Muscadinia and V. tiliifolia sources of resistance. Nineteen seeded crosses consisting of 3,950 emasculations and 49 bagged clusters were made. These crosses were based on V. arizonica, Muscadinia, and southeas...

In Japan, few grape cultivars related to Vitis vinifera existed 200 years ago, on account of Japan's high rainfall. Many V. labruscana and vinifera cultivars were introduced to Japan in the 19th century. Labruscana was grown instead of vinifera, mainly because of severe disease problems and a high incidence of berry cracking. Grape breeding for table use started in the 20th century, with the go...

In California, first-generation table grape vineyards were planted on their own roots. But in recent years growers have been replanting onto acreage previously in grapes more often. Grafted plants are being sought to overcome nematodes and other site-related problems. We investigated the etiology of the decline and death of ‘Redglobe’ table grape scions propagated on different rootstocks, using...

grapevine is one of the very important fruit crops in iran the fruit of which is used as table grape and/or raisins. in this study, some genetic parameters (phenotypic and genetic correlation, heritability and repeatability), of some important traits in table grape (date of ripening, weight, length and width of berry as well as attachment to cluster strength) were evaluated. results showed high...
