Polyploid plantlets, including triploid, tetraploid, and mixoploid, were induced from the European pear (Pyrus communis L.) cultivar ‘Fertility’ by in vitro colchicine treatment of leaf explants. The leaf explants were incubated in 0.4% (w/v) colchicine for 24, 48, or 72 h, then transferred to adventitious shoot-induction medium. Regenerated shoots were pre-selected according to their morpholog...

We review the Poirier-Reutenauer Hopf structure on Standard Young Tableaux and show that it is a distinguished member of a family of Hopf structures. The family in question is related to deformed parastatistics. In this paper K is a field of characteristic zero and all vector spaces are over K. A K[S]-module is a collection of K[Sr]-modules of the symmetric groups Sr. A H(q)-module is a collect...

Herein, we report on the results of solventand sorbent-free HS-GC-MS (headspace – gas chromatography – mass spectrometry) analysis of the headspace volatiles (HSVs) of fruits of cultivated melon (Cucumis melo L. cultivar “ananas dinja” [pineapple melon]) and pear (Pyrus communis L. cultivar “Julska lepotica” [the beauty of July]), as well as of underground parts of carrot (Daucus carota L. cult...
