BACKGROUND The theoretical, but especially the practical values of identifying the biochemical compounds from the Rosa canina L. fruits are of present interest, this aspect being illustrated by the numerous researches. It was reported that the Rosa canina L. fruit, with its high ascorbic acid, phenolics and flavonoids contents, have antioxidant, antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic effects.This s...

Most Japanese plum-type cultivars are self-incompatible and therefore cross pollination is necessary to ensure fruit set. Moreover, pollen can directly affect fruit development process and quality.  This study was carried out to investigate the effect of 6 pollen sources (‘Goje Sabz’, ‘Simka’, ‘Shablon’, ‘Methley’, ‘Myrobalan’ and ‘Black Star’) on  fruit quantitative and qualitative characteris...

Rosehip is a good source of some biologically active compounds. The main importance of rosehip is its high composition of vitamin C and rutin (vitamin P) and high content of pectins, fatty acids, sugars, organic acids, phenolic components, lycopene, carotene with activity of vitamin A and group B vitamins, tannins, carotenoids, minerals (particularly K and P) macroand microelements (Tuer & Russ...

The present experiment was carried on five superior cultivars of litchi fruit in the Department Horticulture Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat, during 2020-2021. All biochemical parameters studied under this were found to be significant character. Generally, most parameters, cultivar Bilati recorded highest among all, such as juice content (13.62cc), reducing sugar (8.37%), invert (17.44%),...

regarding to economical importance of kiwi fruit, its wastes such as highly ripe or partially dried up fruits can be used to produce more economically valuable products like fruit leather. therefore, the aim of present study was the effective factor evaluation of kiwi fruit leather production. the samples were studied in two groups, raw and cooked fruits which were treated in a boiling water ba...

natural citrus biotypes are a valuable genetic resource in the country. investigation about diversity of biochemical compounds due to optimize the utilization and development of new varieties is useful. therefore, for identifying them, the fruits of 16 biotypes with numbers of 6, 8, 15, 21, 24, 25, 26, 29, 30, 41, 43, 45, 48, 51, 52 and 53 in the germplasm collection of the iran citrus research...

The paper considers the prospects for use of freeze-dried vegetable powders in technology milkshakes. main advantages using enriching composition functional dairy products are shown. plant has been proven to enrich with antioxidant substances, dietary fiber, vitamins and protein. A significant increase amount was noted - a strawberry-raspberry cocktail, content vitamin C increased 2.5 times, β-...

abstract effect of different concentrations of salicylic acid on postharvest life of kiwifruit (actinidia deliciosa) cultivar hayward at 0 ±.5 °c and 90-95% rh was studied. fruits were treated with salicylic acid (0, 1 and 2 mmol/l-1) and stored at 0±.5°c for 16 weeks. fruit quality attributes assessment including firmness, total acidity, soluble solid content, ascorbic acid, antioxidant activi...
