Two new fossil taxa of the ash tree, namely F. zlatkoi Meng-Xiao Wu et J.Huang sp. nov. and Fraxinus cf. honshuensis Tanai Onoe were reported from early Oligocene Lühe flora, Yunnan Province, Southwest China. The fruit traits used to assign proposed species genus Fraxinus. These a flattened symmetrical shape, single seed located in base veins parallel long axis each fruit. have low length width...

Fruit shape index (round shape) and seed size have important effects on pumpkin yield. To investigate these traits to create the most desirable state, a cross was made between two cultivars. This study aimed estimate main gene (additive, dominant di-genic epistasis) determine mode of inheritance for fruit by generation mean analysis. Six generations, namely P1, P2, F1, F2, BC1, BC2 from Zucchin...

Identification and selection of promising genotypes of fruit tree are primary steps in breeding programs. The economic importance of almond production in the world has stimulated numerous studies related to breeding, quantitative and qualitative traits, the increase of yield and decrease production costs. In this study, morphological and pomological characteristics of 60 cultivar and superior g...

Aqueous extracts of T. indica fruit pulp (100 mg/kg body weight) and M. oleifera seeds (50 mg/kg body wight) orally once daily for 90 days lowered plasma fluoride concentrations in rabbits receiving fluorinated drinking water (200 mg NaF/ Liter water). Cortical indices and metaphysial width in animals receiving extracts also revealed beneficial effects of plant extracts. Changes in plasma bioch...

Oleaster-leafed pear (Pyrus elaeagrifolia Pall. subsp. elaeagrifolia) fruits are used for food and dietary supplements in Turkey, seedlings as rootstock cultivars. Information on the effect of genotypes oleaster-leafed fruit characteristics is needed order to optimize production quality supplements. The relative genetic background were evaluated from 16 wild grown at eastern Turkey. Genotype in...

In this study, fruit quality characteristics of sweet cherry cultivars (Prunus avium L. cvs. 0900 Ziraat, Kordia, Lambert, Regina, Sweetheart) grown in Ordu province Turkey were investigated. The Kordia cultivar's mass, width, and length measured higher than Lambert Ziraat cultivars. However, it was observed that the width cultivar similar to Regina Sweetheart. It determined firmness Sweetheart...

Correlation and path coefficients analysis can help to assess the mutual relationship between various plant characters determines component on which selection be based or improvement in yield. 260 Mangalore melon vines were evaluated for yield contributing observe their associations, direct indirect effect fruit per vine at College of Horticulture, Bagalkot during summer 2021-2022. The study re...

A greenhouse experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of flooding on two tomato cultivars and two wild related species. Forty days old tomato plants were subjected to a continuous flooding stress of different durations: 0, 2, 4 and 8 days. Plant pots were placed inside larger plastic pots; they were irrigated with excessive quantity of tap water at 25C so that the level of water above...
