Turkey has very rich quince genetic resources, and the country currently dominates world quince production. In particular, the northeastern part of the country has notable Cydonia oblonga Mill. germplasm. Authenticating the identity of germplasm resources of C. oblonga Mill. would be of great value for breeding practices. In the present study, genetic variations of 14 C. oblonga Mill. genotypes...

The codling moth Cydia pomonella (Linnaeus) (Lepidoptera Tortricidae) is a key pest of pome fruit (apple, pear and quince) and walnut orchards in most temperate regions of the world (Barnes 1991; CABI 1995). The moth has followed the spread of the apple tree Malus pumila Miller around the world, and

Seeds, by-products derived from various plants such as mango, quince, and apples, are considered waste, though they have emerging commercial potential, been used in biological, industrial, physiological research. Seed-derived natural macromolecules- mainly polysaccharides, mucilage, gums, cellulose-have physicochemical structural diversification, giving the potential for forming gels, texturing...

Quince seed mucilage was used in a combination of sodium alginate to develop sustained-release microspheres cefixime. Physical characterizations such as FTIR, TGA, DSC, and SEM were performed on the prepared microspheres. The swelling maximum at pH 7.4 reduced acidic pH. average particle size ranged from 679 µm ± 0.21 810 0.31, while drug encapsulation efficiency range found 73.76 0.24–85.63 0....

Abstract Cancer is a challenging ailment and represents the main reason for death worldwide humans animals. Although great developments have hindered cancer progression, several adverse effects are associated with modern chemotherapy. Natural remedies, such as usage of medicinal plant or their products in treatment, may decrease prejudicial side properties. Recently, research scheme innovative ...

the potential of quince powder was evaluated for the production of fiber rich sponge cakes. in this study, quinces slices were dried in an infrared–hot air dryer (375 w, 60°c and 1 m/s flow rate). the rheological properties of cake batters and physico-chemical, textural and sensory properties of the sponge cake supplemented with five different concentrations (control, 5, 10, 15 and 20 %) of qui...

Blue mold is the vernacular name of a common postharvest disease of stored apples, pears, and quince that is caused by several common species of Penicillium This study reports the draft genome sequence of Penicillium expansum strain R21, which was isolated from a red delicious apple in 2011 in Pennsylvania.
