in order to study the effects of ga3and cacl2 treatments in resolve the problems of sweet pepper culture in ilam region (including small size fruits with sunscald and blossom end rot disorders), this study was carried out in ilam university in 2012. for that, ga3 (50 mg/l) and cacl2 (0.5%) treatments were sprayed at two (fruit set and 15 days thereafter) and three (fruit set, 10 and 20 days the...

this study was carried out to investigate impacts of myrobalan rootstock and blackthorn interstem on fruit growth, physico-chemical features and bioactive compounds of two apricot cultivars (‘harcot’ and ‘roksana’) in 2010 and 2011. fruits of both cultivars on myrobalan and/or blackthorn grew with a classic double sigmoid curve from full bloom time to harvest. during growth and development peri...

The antioxidant potential of eight clingstone peach cultivars was investigated by determining phenolic compounds and inhibition of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation. Cultivars low in polyphenol oxidase (PPO) were also selected to minimize enzymatic browning. Inhibition of LDL oxidation varied from 17.0 to 37.1% in peach flesh extract, from 15.2 to 49.8% in whole peach extract, and from 18...

The presence of nematode or round worms in the flesh of marine fish has long been known and is perceived to be both an aesthetic and human health problem. The most abundant group are members of the genus Anisakis and within fish they are small, colourless worms which are found, often lightly coiled within the flesh or the viscera. Within the flesh they are often difficult to see with the naked ...

Fuji apples may develop the physiological disorders core flush or flesh browning during cold storage in air (RA) or controlled atmosphere (CA) (Argenta et al., 2000). Core flush is a symptom of senescence characterized by yellow-brown discoloration in the core (Wilkinson and Fidler, 1973). In Fuji apples, flesh browning (Photo 1) resembles senescent breakdown because the diffuse, light brown di...

And they will be ready to punish all disobedience, when your obedience...

the ameliorative activity of aqueous extract of the flesh of dates (phoenix dactylifera l.) and ascorbic acid on thioacetamide-induced hepatotoxicity was studied in rats. sixty male rats were divided into six equal groups of 10. two groups were controls, one treated with thioacetamide and one with only distilled water. two groups received extract of flesh phoenix dactylifera and intraperitoneal...
