Mild taste and early maturing red onion cultivar ‘Eumjinara’

Carbohydrate metabolism of vegetative and reproductive sinks in the late-maturing peach cultivar 'Encore'

Activities of NAD(+)-dependent sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH), sorbitol oxidase (SOX), sucrose synthase (SS), acid invertase (AI), and neutral invertase (NI) in 'Encore' peach (Prunus persica L.) fruits and developing shoot tips were assayed during the growing season to determine whether carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes could serve as indicators of sink strength. In fruit flesh, SS activity was ...

Anthocyanins from red flowers of Camellia cultivar 'Dalicha'.

Five anthocyanins, cyanidin 3-O-(2-O-beta-xylopyranosyl-6-O-(Z)-p-coumaroyl)-beta-galactopyranoside (2), cyanidin 3-O-(2-O-beta-xylopyranosyl-6-O-(E)-p-coumaroyl)-beta-galactopyranoside (3), cyanidin 3-O-(2-O-beta-xylopyranosyl-6-O-(E)-caffeoyl)-beta-galactopyranoside (4), cyanidin 3-O-(2-O-beta-xylopyranosyl-6-O-acetyl)-beta-galactopyranoside (5), and cyanidin 3-O-(2-O-beta-xylopyranosyl-6-O-a...

Acylated Anthocyanins from Flowers of Cineraria, Senecio cruentus, Red Cultivar

Cinerarin, the anthocyanin isolated from the blue flowers of garden cineraria, S. cruentus by Yoshitama et al. [1, 2], was identified as dicaffeylated delphinidin 3,7,3'-triglucoside on the basis of the chemical evidences and its extraordinary sta­ bility in a neutral aqueous solution was also point­ ed out. Goto et al. [3] established its complete structure as malonyltricaffeyl delphinidin-tet...

Early influences on taste preferences.

Early Taste Experiences and Later Food Choices

BACKGROUND Nutrition in early life is increasingly considered to be an important factor influencing later health. Food preferences are formed in infancy, are tracked into childhood and beyond, and complementary feeding practices are crucial to prevent obesity later in life. METHODS Through a literature search strategy, we have investigated the role of breastfeeding, of complementary feeding, ...
