Olive fruit dry matter and oil accumulation in warm environmental conditions

Effects on Dry Matter Accumulation and Nitrogen

The interaction between the ATP-dependent evolution of H2 catalyzed by nitrogenase and the oxidation of H2 via a hydrogenase has been postulated to influence the efficiency of the N2-fixing process in nodulated legumes. A comparative study using soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) cv. Anoka inoculated with either Rhizobium japonicum strain USDA 31 or USDA 110 and cowpea (Vigna uguiculats L. Walp.) c...

study of comparison and adaptation of 15 iranian and foreign olive (olea europaea l.) cultivars under sar-e-pol-e- zehab conditions

in order to study adaptation ability of 15 commercial olive cultivars, this experiment was carried out using a randomized complete block design with three replication during the period from 2007 to 2009 in dry-warm climate of sar-pol-e-zehab dallaho olive station of kermanshah province. in this experiment, vegetative and reproductive traits were measured according to i.o.o.c. descriptors. flora...

Dry matter accumulation in citrus fruit is not limited by transport capacity of the pedicel.

The vascularization of the pedicel in Marisol clementine (Citrus clementina Hort. ex Tanaka) has been characterized in relation to fruit growth. Phloem and xylem formation occurred during the first half of the period of fruit growth. Phloem cross-sectional area reached its maximum value by the end of fruitlet abscission, 78 d after anthesis (DAA), shortly after the rate of accumulation of dry m...

Dry matter and nitrogen accumulation and use in spring barley

During growth, kernel of cereals can be provided with carbohydrate and nitrogen (N) from the translocation of pre-anthesis accumulated reserves stored either in the vegetative plant parts or from current assimilation during kernel development. This study was conducted to assess the effects of nitrogen level and cultivars on dry matter and N accumulation and mobilization during pre-anthesis and ...

Monitoring endogenous enzymes during olive fruit ripening and storage: correlation with virgin olive oil phenolic profiles.

The ability of olive endogenous enzymes β-glucosidase, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and peroxidase (POX), to determine the phenolic profile of virgin olive oil was investigated. Olives used for oil production were stored for one month at 20 °C and 4 °C and their phenolic content and enzymatic activities were compared to those of ripening olive fruits. Phenolic and volatile profiles of the correspon...
