This is the first-ever study conducted to standardize the maturity stage of olive fruit for development of olive murabba. Olive fruit was harvested at three different maturity stages including lemon green, semi-ripened and fully ripened stages for postharvest processing. Most prominent quality parameters of the product were studied for all maturity stages. Olive productprepared from semi-ripene...

in order to have a successful breeding program, it is important to determine the relationship among the traits. this study was conducted at research farm of isfahan university of technology to evaluate relationships among some of the agronomic and physiological traits and grain yield of ten bread wheat cultivars in optimum and stress moisture (irrigation after 70±3 and 130±3 mm evaporation from...

greenhouse and laboratory studies were conducted to examine the allelopathic effects of water extracts of pigweed (amaranthus retroflexu l.) leaf, stem, root and flower at different growth stages on canola seed germination and seedling growth. water extracts of leaf, stem, root and flower as individually, binary, ternary and quadri mixtures at 0, 50 and 100% concentrations were made and their e...

background and objectives: quinoa (chenopodium quinoa willd.) is a member of amaranthaceae family that originated in the andean region in bolivia, chile and peru five thousands of years and so it has a tiny and round seeds. quinoa in different combinations of food used as food, as well as how to cook like rice grains and known as the inca rice in the south american countries. the high nutrition...

the effect of different fertilizing systems and drought stress during grain development on grain minerals of barley (hordeum vulgare l.) was studied in field experiments on a clay-loamy soil during 2007 and 2008 growing seasons. the treatments consisted of three irrigation regimes (main plots) of: non-stressed (ns, normal irrigation continued until the end of plant physiological maturity), ...

In order to determine the best developmental stage of soybean at which maximum seed quality is attained under different shadings (S1, S2, S3: 0, 35 and 75% shade, respectively) and irrigation treatments (I1, I2, I3, I4: irrigation after 60, 90, 120 and 150 mm evaporation from class A pan, respectively), two split plot experiments using randomized complete block design with three replications we...

Agaricus subrufescens Peck is a basidiomycete with immunomodulatory compounds and antitumor activities. This research evaluated the mycochemical composition of A. subrufescens, considering their morphological and physiological stage of maturity, with a particular focus on the development of a traceability process for the formulation of new nutritional products based on fungal foods. The stipes ...
