Development of tomato in the lowlands is a solution to increase production Indonesia. Genotype selection using an appropriate criteria can help obtain genotypes with have high lowlands. This study was aimed determine for tomatoes organized randomized block design three replications. The genotype used this collection pure line from IPB's breeding laboratory. results showed that several character...

Apple (Malus spp.) is a widely grown and valuable fruit crop. Leaf shape is important for flowering in apple and may also be an early indicator for other agriculturally valuable traits. We examined 9,000 leaves from 869 unique apple accessions using linear measurements and comprehensive morphometric techniques. We identified allometric variation as the result of differing length-to-width aspect...

Cell wall polysaccharides play an important role in postharvest fruit texture softening. Effects of calcium treatment combined with cold storage on the physical properties, polysaccharide content and nanostructure of apricots were investigated. Apricots were immersed in distilled water, 1% or 3% w/v calcium chloride, then stored at 5°C or 10°C. Storage at 5°C significantly improved apricot qual...

To study the development and interactions of cells and tissues, multiple fluorescent markers need to be imaged efficiently in a single living organism. Instead of acquiring individual colours sequentially with filters, we created a platform based on line-scanning light sheet microscopy to record the entire spectrum for each pixel in a three-dimensional volume. We evaluated data sets with varyin...

Fleshy fruit is consumed by many wildlife species and is a critical component of forest ecosystems. Because fruit production may change quickly during forest succession, frequent monitoring of fruit biomass may be needed to better understand shifts in wildlife habitat quality. Yet, designing a fruit sampling protocol that is executable on a frequent basis may be difficult, and knowledge of accu...

The present study was carried out to determine some physicochemical, composition and sensory attributes of early-ripening peach varieties: “Filina” (peach), “Gergana” (nectarine), “Ufo-4” (flat peach). Fruit weight, shape size, as well color firmness were evaluated. Image analysis used describe properties such length, width, thickness, etc. Skin hue ranged from 33.45±10.70 42.75±29.87. Dry matt...

This study was conducted in 2018, under open field conditions Ad?yaman Province of Turkey to determine the effects farm manure, vermicompost and plant growth regulators on yield some fruit quality parameter watermelon. Matured three different (Crop-Set, Endoroots ISR-2000) were used compare with control (not fertilizers applied) application. Vermicompost, Endoroots, ISR-2000 Crop-Set applied pl...

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the physical-chemical and physiological changes during maturation fruits seeds P. peruviana determine best stage for harvesting in Brazillian semi-arid conditions. were collected at five stages based on color epicarp: 1: light green fruit; 2: yellowish-green; 3: yellow with area that connects calyx; 4: yellow; 5: yellowish-orange. Physical phy...

Previous simulation studies on human connectomes suggested that critical dynamics emerge subcritically in the so-called Griffiths phases. Now we investigate this largest available brain network, 21662 node fruit-fly connectome, using Kuramoto synchronization model. As graph is less heterogeneous, lacking modular structure and exhibiting high topological dimension, expect a difference from previ...
