ripening is considered as the most important biochemical event in the cheese technology. presence of whey proteins in uf-cheese leads to such abnormal behaviors and characteristics as slow ripening, weak flavor, and soft and undesirable texture. since temperature and time are the most important environmental factors in cheese ripening, the aim of the present study was chosen to investigate the ...

abstract saffron (crocus sativus, l.) is one of the most important economical crops for khorasan farmers. almost all saffron yield in iran comes from khorasan provinces. first irrigation times is the crucial factors which affect the amount and quality of yield based upon an on farm investigation it was found that when air temperature reaches to 12 ۫c the most amount of flower is yielded. also it...

Nitrogen fertilization is a basic agrotechnical orchard treatment, and affects quality size of the crops. The aim this study was to assess impact nitrogen on yield sour cherry fruit ‘Łutówka’ cultivar. course climatic conditions in relation timing flowering fruiting analyzed. trials were carried out three different experimental orchards (quarters) with planting dates (1999, 2001 2002) located a...

The interactive effects of aeration rate, storage temperature, harvest maturity, and storage duration on respiration and ripening of tomato fruits (Lycopersicum esculentum var. Roma) were studied. Slow aeration rate strongly reduced the climacteric but did not affect ripening. Low temperature slowed ripening and reduced respiratory rates, but low temperature did not delay attainment of the clim...

Fruit ripening is a physiological and biochemical process genetically programmed to regulate fruit quality parameters like firmness, flavor, odor and color, as well as production of ethylene in climacteric fruit. In this study, a transcriptomic analysis of mango (Mangifera indica L.) mesocarp cv. "Kent" was done to identify key genes associated with fruit ripening. Using the Illumina sequencing...

in order to study the effect of temperature and photoperiod (pp) on development rate of different vegetative and reproductive stages of canola, an experiment was conducted at agricultural research station of gonbad during 2005-2007. the experiment was a randomized complete block design arranged in a split-plot in two conditions, for example supplemental irrigation and rainfed. there were differ...

concerning limitation of water resources, determination of the least water that can lead to the maximum yield is of great importance in crop production. in order to evaluate effects of deficit irrigation on grain yield and water use efficiency of some wheat )triticum aestivum) cultivars under different climatic conditions, two similar field experiments were conducted in 2004 in agricultural res...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The timing of flowering and summer dormancy induction plays a central role in the adaptation of Mediterranean geophytes to changes in the length of the growth season along rainfall gradients. Our aim was to analyse the role of the variation in the responses of flowering and summer dormancy to vernalization, daylength and growth temperature for the adaptation of Poa bulbosa, ...

Connection between the developmental stage and the quantity and quality of essential oil was investigated in some model species of the Asteraceae, Lamiaceae and Apiaceae plant families. The accumulation of essential oil decreased continuously during ontogenesis in Tanacetum vulgare. The tendency of accumulation showed an optimum curve in Mentha piperita, Hyssopus officinalis, Majorana hortensis...
