Random ampli®ed polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) were used to discriminate among 25 Feijoa sellowiana cultivars and accessions. Fifty ten-mer oligonucleotide primers were tested on ®ve accessions. Twenty-two primers, showing clear polymorphic patterns, were chosen to amplify the DNAs of all 25 genotypes; each ampli®cation was repeated three times separately. Only 11 primers were ®nally analysed, yieldi...

This study was done in the district of Allahabad, a region best known for the good produce of guava. The main aim of the study was to observe the total production of guava under different size holding for that the farmers were divided into three size groups small, medium and large. The average total yield in different size groups was calculated to be 50.88qtls in small size group, 107.72 in med...

Acca sellowiana (Myrtaceae), feijoa (in Brazil, goiaba da serra), is a native southern South America tree that produces edible fruits which, although only occasionally cultivated in South America, became a significant fruit crop in New Zealand. Recently, during surveys for fungal pathogens of feijoa in southern Brazil, several plants were found bearing tar-spot symptoms caused by a species of P...

objective(s): because of the high total phenolic contents of feijoa sellowiana , its nephroprotective effect was determined in 3,4-methylene dioxymethamphetamine (mdma) treated mice.   materials and methods: animals received 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg doses of aqueous or methanol extract of f. sellowiana leaves, intra-peritoneally. after one hour, an acute administration of mdma (20 mg/kg, ip) was inj...
