A trial was conducted at the Vegetable Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture, Technology & Sciences, Prayagraj (UP) during 2022. This study investigates “Effect traditional fertilizer, nano fertilizer and micronutrient on growth, yield quality Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.).” The purpose is to evaluate plants in te...

ABSTRACT The extended use of the same variety by farmers over successive generations and reuse “seeds” caused natural variability that can be a magnificent opportunity for genetic improvement tomatillo. Two seasons were accomplished to select genotypes with good performance from heterogeneous population local tomatillo “Balady”. results revealed significant differences in early yield as fruit n...

A great interest has recently been focused on lycopene and β-carotene, because of their antioxidant action in the organism. Red-flesh watermelon is one of the main sources of lycopene as the most abundant carotenoid. The use of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in post-harvesting has permitted us to rapidly quantify lycopene, β-carotene, and total soluble solids (TSS) on single intact fruits. W...

This paper presents a comparison of U.S. Geological Survey stream monitoring station measurements of total suspended solids (TSS) yield and stream bank erosion monitoring data with a suspended solids model developed by Brown and Caldwell and used by the Gwinnett County, Georgia Department of Water Resources (DWR) to inform its watershed improvement efforts. A comparison between modeled and aver...

Physiologically mature, uniform fruits were thoroughly washed and dipped in aqueous solution of T0 (Untreated fruits), T1 (Boric acid at 200 ppm), T2 300 T3 (NAA 100 T4 T5 (Salicylic 300ppm), T6 400ppm) for five minutes. Fruits placed plastic trays stored ambient storage conditions 12 days. The readings observed after 4rd, 8th 12th Physiological weight loss decreased with storage, further treat...

Fusariosis (Fusarium guttiforme) is the most destructive disease of pineapple crop in Brazil. The aim this study was to evaluate reaction an isolate genotypes selected for crownless fruit weight (CFW) and total soluble solids (TSS). A 1,125 ('BRS Imperial'×'Pérola') were evaluated. Selection greatest CFW TSS performed during sexual cycle. inoculated on slip-type plantlets using immersion techni...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the use lemon essential oil and its mixtures with chitosan, calcium chloride, natamycin on postharvest storage quality citrus. analysis physiological biochemical index changes citrus stored at 20 ± 2 °C 75 5% relative humidity for 60 days showed that could help maintain nutritional sensory In addition, increased activities superoxide dismutase (SOD), ...

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...

Barhi dates are widely consumed at Khalal maturity stage and preserving the freshness quality of this is a challenging task as period short fruits more perishable. In study, response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize infrared (IR) treatment storage conditions for physicochemical, microbial, bioactive attributes fresh dates. The effect four factors, IR temperature (50, 70, 90, 11...
