ADVANCES IN PEACH, NECTARINE AND PLUM PROPAGATION

Antioxidant capacities, phenolic compounds, carotenoids, and vitamin C contents of nectarine, peach, and plum cultivars from California.

Genotypic variation in composition and antioxidant activity was evaluated using 25 cultivars, 5 each of white-flesh nectarines, yellow-flesh nectarines, white-flesh peaches, yellow-flesh peaches, and plums, at the ripe (ready-to-eat) stage. The ranges of total ascorbic acid (vitamin C) (in mg/100 g of fresh weight) were 5-14 (white-flesh nectarines), 6-8 (yellow-flesh nectarines), 6-9 (white-fl...

Airborne Thermal Imagery to Detect the Seasonal Evolution of Crop Water Status in Peach, Nectarine and Saturn Peach Orchards

In the current scenario of worldwide limited water supplies, conserving water is a major concern in agricultural areas. Characterizing within-orchard spatial heterogeneity in water requirements would assist in improving irrigation water use efficiency and conserve water. The crop water stress index (CWSI) has been successfully used as a crop water status indicator in several fruit tree species....

Reaction of ten peach and ten nectarine cultivars to powdery mildew

Karbalaei Khiavi H, Pirayesh A, Seyed Masoumi SY, Khabbaz Jolfaei H (2021). Reaction of ten peach and ten nectarine cultivars to powdery mildew. Plant Pathology Science 10(1):1-13.      Doi: 10.2982/PPS.10.1.1.   Introduction: Powdery mildew caused by Podosphaera pannosa is one of the most important diseases of peaches and nectarines worldwide, including Iran. The aim of this research was to ...

Phenotypic diversity among local Spanish and foreign peach and 1 nectarine [ Prunus persica ( L . ) Batsch ] accessions

Segregation of peach and nectarine (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) cultivars according to their organoleptic characteristics

Cultivar segregation according to the sensory perception of their organoleptic characteristics was attempted by using trained panel data evaluated by principal component analysis of four sources per cultivar of 23 peach and 26 nectarine cultivars as a part of our program to d a p c p o 9 a ( n t b t p ©
