The Origins of Fruits, Fruit Growing, and Fruit Breeding

Genotype-dependent response to carbon availability in growing tomato fruit.

Tomato fruit growth and composition depend on both genotype and environment. This paper aims at studying how fruit phenotypic responses to changes in carbon availability can be influenced by genotype, and at identifying genotype-dependent and -independent changes in gene expression underlying variations in fruit growth and composition. We grew a parental line (Solanum lycopersicum) and an intro...

Some Nutritional Characteristics of Fruit and Oil of Walnut (Juglans regia L.) Growing in Turkey

Walnut (Juglans regia L.) were evaluated for some physical properties and chemical composition. Ripe fruits were determined for moisture (2.71 %), crude protein (14.6 %) crude fibre (1.8%) ash (1.57%), crude energy (576Cal) ether soluble extract (24.71%), nut (10.5g) and kernel (5.09g) veights. Relative density, refractive index...
