Yield and different nut parameters were measured for two growing seasons on mature (28–29 years) trees of 11 pecan cultivars grown in an experimental orchard located the Puglia Region, Southeastern Italy. ‘Shoshoni’ ‘Shawnee’ seedlings inoculated with three truffle species (Tuber borchii—known as ‘whitish truffle’, T. aestivum—called ‘summer melanosporum—the common ‘Black truffle’) investigated...

Purpose Solid-state fermentation (SSF) has been highlighted as an alternative to obtain valuable compounds using agro-industrial wastes a substrate. The present study evaluated the impact of extrusion combined with SSF on production phenolic and their antioxidant activity pecan nut shell (PWS) Design/methodology/approach PWS extruded (PWSE) were fermented for 120 h at 30°C Aspergillus oryzae ( ...

MOTIVATION Multiple sequence alignment is a cornerstone of comparative genomics. Much work has been done to improve methods for this task, particularly for the alignment of small sequences, and especially for amino acid sequences. However, less work has been done in making promising methods that work on the small-scale practically for the alignment of much larger genomic sequences. RESULTS We...
