Orange (C. sinensis) peel flavonoids have antibacterial, antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral effects. However, there is a scarcity of information in the literature about orange peels flavonoids. So, we estimated phytochemicals hydro-methanolic extract C. sinensis were separated by Column chromatography confirmed with TLC HPLC. After that evaluated antimicrobial, antioxidan...

India is sitting on a gold mine of well-recorded and traditionally well practiced knowledge of herbal medicine. General phytochemical screening of Citrus sinensis (Orange) belonging Rutaceae family revealed the presence of flavones glycoside. The aim of this study is to identify and characterize the bioactive principle compound (Hesperidin) from the dried peel of C. sinensis fruit. It has wide ...

Fruits of sweet orange (Citrus sinensis), a popular commercial Citrus species, contain high concentrations of flavonoids beneficial to human health. These fruits predominantly accumulate O-glycosylated flavonoids, in which the disaccharides [neohesperidose (rhamnosyl-α-1,2-glucose) or rutinose (rhamnosyl-α-1,6-glucose)] are linked to the flavonoid aglycones through the 3- or 7-hydroxyl sites. T...

Watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai] flesh color is controlled by several genes to produce red, orange, salmon yellow, canary yellow, or white. The objective of these experiments was to study the interaction of three independently reported gene loci, each having two or three alleles: C (canary yellow) versus c (red), y (salmon yellow) versus Y (red) versus y8 (orange), and i ...

Aroma is a vital characteristic that determines the quality and commercial value of citrus fruits, and characteristic volatiles have been analyzed in different citrus species. In sweet orange, Citrus sinensis, the sesquiterpene (+)-valencene is a key volatile compound in the fruit peel. Valencene synthesis is catalyzed by the terpene synthase CsTPS1, but the transcriptional mechanisms controlli...

A cDNA named CsHPt1 (for Citrus sinensis histidine phosphotransmitter protein 1) containing a conserved domain characteristic of a twocomponent phosphorelay intermediate associated with signal transduction mechanisms, was isolated from globular embryos of C. sinensis sweet orange cv. ‘Valencia’ by differential display RT-PCR. The corresponding full-length cDNA, subsequently obtained by RACE-PCR...

Sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) plays an important role in the economy of more than 140 countries, but it is grown in areas with intermittent stressful soil and climatic conditions. The stress tolerance could be addressed by manipulating the ethylene response factor (ERF) transcription factors because they orchestrate plant responses to environmental stress. We performed an in silico study on th...

The bacterium Xylella fastidiosa is the causal agent of citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC) and has been associated with important losses in commercial orchards of all sweet orange [Citrus sinensis (L.)] cultivars. The development of this disease depends on the environmental conditions, including the endophytic microbial community associated with the host plant. Previous studies have shown that X...

The abundance and spatial dispersion of Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) were studied in 34 grapefruit (Citrus paradisi Macfad.) and six sweet orange [Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck] orchards from March to August 2006 when the pest is more abundant in southern Texas. Although flush shoot infestation levels did not vary with host plant species, densities of D. citri eggs, nymphs, an...
