Brinjal (Solanum melongena), scarlet (S. aethiopicum) and gboma (S. macrocarpon) eggplants are three Old World domesticates. The genomic DNA of a collection of accessions belonging to the three cultivated species, along with a representation of various wild relatives, was characterized for the presence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using a genotype-by-sequencing approach. A total of...

Hybrids of Solanum melongena and S. aethiopicum are of interest as rootstocks of eggplant, as they are highly vigorous and can incorporate resistance to several diseases. However, hybridization between both species is difficult. Therefore, protocols for in vitro culture are of great interest for their micropropagation and biotechnological breeding. We assessed the organogenesis response from le...

Solanum aethiopicum is a very important vegetable for both rural and urban communities in Africa. The crop rich macro- micronutrients compared with other vegetables suitable ensuring food nutritional security. It also possesses several medicinal properties currently employed the treatment of high blood pressure, diabetes, cholera, uterine complaints as well skin infections humans. predominantly...

Scarlet (Solanum aethiopicum) and gboma (S. macrocarpon) eggplants are important vegetables in Sub-Saharan Africa. Few studies have been made on these crops regarding the diversity of phenolic content and their biological activity. We have studied the reducing activity, the chlorogenic acid and other phenolic acid contents in a collection of 56 accessions of scarlet eggplant, including the four...

This study aims at evaluating the membrane stabilization potential of Solanum aethiopicum L. fruits extracts using an in vitro hemolytic assay. 2 mL of blood from healthy volunteers and patients with serologically confirmed current dengue infection were freshly collected and used in the assays. Fresh garden eggs fruits at three different maturity stages (immature, partly matured and matured) we...

Vegetables and fruits form some of the most important components daily nutrition owing to their high mineral vitamin contents which are essential for a balanced diet. This research work was carried out on phytochemicals, proximate trace element content three varieties garden egg Solanum melongena (S. melongena), aethiopicum aethiopicum) macrocarpon macrocarpon). The plants were extracted phytoc...

Abstract. The interval-valued prime fuzzy ideals (in brevity, the iv. prime fuzzy ideals) of a semigroup have been recently studied by Kar, Sarkar and Shum [18]. As a continued study of i-v fuzzy ideals, we are going to investigate the properties of i-v fuzzy quasi-ideal and i-v fuzzy bi-ideal of a semiring and then we characterize the regularity and intra-regularity of a semiring in terms of t...

Peptide signals mediate a variety of cell-to-cell communication crucial for plant growth and development. During Arabidopsis thaliana vascular development, a CLE (CLAVATA3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION-related) family peptide hormone, TDIF (tracheary element differentiation inhibitory factor), regulates procambial cell fate by its inhibitory activity on xylem differentiation. To address if this act...
