The genus Phaeoacremonium is associated with opportunistic human infections, as well as stunted growth and die-back of various woody hosts, especially grapevines. In this study, Phaeoacremonium species were isolated from necrotic woody tissue of Prunus spp. (plum, peach, nectarine and apricot) from different stone fruit growing areas in South Africa. Morphological and cultural characteristics a...

food quality, marketability, soluble solids, size and color of nectarine fruit is affected by the intensity and amount of direct sunlight. usually the outer areas of fruit trees get enough light and take the appropriate color. however, in the middle and lower part of trees, due to low light intensity, fruits have no good color and taste and their marketability were not desirable. to improve the...

objective: economic analysis was performed for the main horticultural crops in buin zahra (pistachio, peach, nectarine, and apple). there were dependent and independent variables in this research. methods: the independent variables were planting method (mechanized and conventional), land area used for fruit production, and land ownership. the maximum energy used, mostly in the form of fossil fu...

Coniothyrium-like fungi are common wood and soil inhabitants and hyperparasites on other fungi. They belong to different fungal genera within the Pleosporales. Several isolates were obtained on wood of different Prunus species (plum, peach and nectarine) from South Africa, on Actinidia species from Italy and on Laurus nobilis from Turkey. Morphological and cultural characteristics as well as DN...

The collection of stone fruit crops (peach, apricot and nectarine) was analyzed in accordance with their belonging to certain ecological-geographical groups ecotypes. most valuable characteristics were determined, sources economically properties identified, included crossbreeding combinations for intraspecific interspecific hybridization. Methods radiation chemical mutagenesis used the selectio...
