Composition and sensory properties of sour cherry cultivars

Genistein isoflavone glycoconjugates in sour cherry cultivars

Somatic embryogenesis and organogenesis from immature embryo cotyledons of three sour cherry cultivars (Prunus cerasus L.)

Immature cotyledons of open-pollinated fruits from three sour cherry cultivars (Prunus cerasus L.) were excised and cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with various combinations of auxin and cytokinin to induce somatic embryogenesis. Somatic embryogenesis occurred principally when using the combinations of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid plus kinetin. Using a-naphthaleneacetic ac...

effect of modified atmosphere packaging on quality properties and storability extending in two sour cherry cultivars

abstract sour cherry (prunus cerasus l.) is an important iranian-native fruit, considered highly perishable commodity which cannot be stored for any length of time. on this study, effect of three gas compositions (ambient, 5% o2+5% co2+90% n2 and 10% o2+15% co2+75% n2) and two storage temperatures (0 and 5 °c) on two sour cherry cultivars namely erdy jubileum and erdy botermo was studied in a c...

Physicochemical Composition, Phenolic Content and Antioxidant Activity of Sour Cherry cv. Marasca During Ripening

Sour cherry cv. Marasca is Dalmatian cultivar from XVI century. Cultivation is limited on the north and central part of Dalmatia and on the part of the islands, where it achieves the best quality of fruit, high content of dry matter and sugar respectively, agreeable aroma and intense color. Sour cherry cv. Marasca is source of biologically active ingredients, organic and inorganic compounds, di...

Maximum quantum yield of photosystem II and chlorophyll content in leaves of sour cherry cultivars challenged by drought

Photosynthesis is the basic process influencing crop productivity. It can be inhibited by drought. Seven sour cherry genotypes were challenged by drought to assess their photosynthetic efficiency in such conditions. All together with relative water content (RWC) as indicator of plant water status, maximum quantum yield of photosystem II (Fv/Fm) and chlorophyll content (Chl a+b) differentiated i...
