TCP-Peach has recently been proposed for IP network scenarios characterized by long round trip times and high bit error rates, such as satellite networks. In the TCPPeach congestion control scheme, Slow Start and Fast Recovery are replaced with new algorithms called Sudden Start and Rapid Recovery. In this paper protocol refinements for TCP-Peach are proposed to allow it to be utilized in coope...

Experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of low temperatures on anthocyanin accumulation in apple and peach shoots. The anthocyanin concentration in both the apple and peach shoots increased rapidly during cold acclimation reaching the peak value in early December. The anthocyanin might be accumulated in shoots as a result of leucoanthocyanidin conversion. When apple and peach shoo...

Clinical case Caucasian 16-year-old boy was refered to Immunoalergology Unit for food allergy investigation. Since early childhood the patient avoids ingestion of peach although without any symptoms to mention. At the age of 7 he experienced labial and palpebral angioedema, oropharyngeal pruritis and dyspnoea immediately after ingestion of a non-peeled fresh apple and later with a cooked apple....

Harvest maturity is closely related to peach fruit quality and has a very important effect on the fresh fruit market. Unfortunately, at present, it is difficult to determine the maturity level of peach fruits by artificial methods. The objectives of this study were to develop quadratic polynomial regression models using near-infrared spectroscopy that could determine the peel color difference, ...

ABSTRACT Thirteen aphid species were tested for their ability to transmit Pennsylvania isolates of Plum pox virus (PPV) collected in Columbia (PENN-3), Franklin (PENN-4), and York (PENN-7) Counties, PA. Four species, Aphis fabae, A. spiraecola, Brachycaudus persicae, and Myzus persicae, consistently transmitted PPV in preliminary transmission tests. Two species, Metopolophium dirhodum and Rhopa...

Promising new tools for peach fruit quality breeding have been revised in this work. These tools included fruit quality evaluation through physical, chemical and sensorial parameters and post-harvest storage evaluation. The development of a feasible method for an early testing of peach selections generated in breeding programs is also well described together with the discussion of the inheritan...

orchard workers in north china are highly exposed to orchard pollens, especially peach and other rosaceae family pollens during pollination season. the aim of this study was to investigate whether occupational allergy to peach tree pollen as a member of rosaceae family is ige-mediated and to evaluate the cross-reactivity among rosaceae family pollens. allergen skin test and conjunctival challen...

Venturia carpophila causes peach scab, a disease that renders peach (Prunus persica) fruit unmarketable. We report a high-quality draft genome sequence (36.9 Mb) of V. carpophila from an isolate collected from a peach tree in central Georgia in the United States. The genome annotation is described and a phylogenetic analysis of the pathogen is presented. The genome sequence will be a useful res...

Studies were designed to examine the effects of host plants (apple, Malus domestica Borkh., and peach, Prunus persica L.) on the development of oriental fruit moth, Grapholita molesta (Busck) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae). Oriental fruit moth larvae developed faster on peach than on apple, both on fruit as well as on growing terminal shoots. On fruit, these differences were shown to cause signific...

background probiotics have been used for dairy products such as yogurt and yogurt drinks, however cholesterol content and lactose intolerance are important drawbacks. recently, consumption of non-dairy probiotic food especially for probiotic drink products has been intensified. objectives this research was conducted to determine the suitability of peach as a raw material for producing probiotic...
