Two trials involving 20 Prunus rootstocks were conducted under greenhouse conditions to screen for resistance to root-knot nematode [Meloidogyne javanica (Treub.) Chitwood]. Many of the tested materials are interspecific hybrid rootstocks and represent new commercial peach (P. persica Batsch) and plum (Prunus sp.) releases or experimental genotypes of Spanish, French, and Italian origin. In the...

to evaluate morphological and biochemical changes of almond (prunus dulcis mill.) under salt stress conditions and determine relationship among accumulation of na and cl with these traits, an experiment was conducted based on completely randomized design with four treatments including 0 (control), 25, 50 and 75 mm of pure sodium chloride and three replications from 2010 to 2012. the seed of hea...

The present study was focused to evaluate the phytochemical screening and biochemical estimation of ethanolic aqueous extracts edible nuts Arachis hypogea, Anacardium occidentale, Prunus dulcis Juglans regia. showed presence carbohydrate, protein, phenol tannin, flavonoid, glycoside, steroid, alkaloid in all studied nuts. quantification A. hypogeae, P. J. regia were performed determine total am...

Abstract Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is a proven tool for the determination of food authenticity, mainly because good classification results and possibility industrial use due to its easy fast application. Since water shows broad absorption bands, content sample should be as low possible. Freeze-drying commonly used preparatory step this reduce in sample. However, freeze-drying, also known...
