Heavy metals are elements that very harmful to human and environmental health. metal concentration in the fruits grown city centers can reach high levels consuming these as food causes a direct intake of heavy metals, which contain, into body pose significant health risk. All compounds barium (Ba), is one most dangerous toxic. Thus, determining Ba plants, areas with pollution consumed food, imp...

The western cherry fruit fly, Rhagoletis indifferens Curran (Diptera: Tephritidae), is an endemic herbivore of bitter cherry, Prunus emarginata (Douglas ex Hooker) Eaton, but ∼100 years ago established on earlier-fruiting domesticated sweet cherry, Prunus avium (L.) L. Here, we determined if eclosion times of adult R. indifferens from sweet and bitter cherry differ according to the phenology of...

Fresh fruits, vegetables and nuts represent a large, highly important, and growing industry. Nonetheless, little is known about their in vivo characterization and morphology, the effect of mechanical harvesting, peelability, postharvest mold, physiological decay, and internal quality. Currently, destructive techniques can be employed to evaluate samples for internal product attributes. However,...

This study was carried out to determine the effects of pre-harvest calcium applications on fruit quality and cracking in "0900 Ziraat” cherry variety. For this purpose, “Codiagro Agroplant” containing 35% CaO (Calcium oxide); by foliar spraying; It has been applied trees different such as dripping from soil leaf + spraying. In study, weight (g), width (mm), length height (suture) seed amount wa...

A partial linkage map was constructed for the sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) cultivar Emperor Francis from a population of 56 microspore-derived callus culture individuals. The callus cultures were genotyped for two allozymes and 90 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers using 79 random decanucleotide DNA primers and the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Eighty-nine markers mapped to 10...
