The monotypic genus Ceriomicrodon Hull, 1937 was known in the current literature by a few specimens, all from Brazil but with records only for Mato Grosso and Roraima states. The only species of the genus is here redescribed including the description of the female and its terminalia, in addition to a preliminary description of the egg. Images of male and female genitalia and egg are provided. N...

The walnut green hull is an agro-waste, a source of natural dye and volatile compounds with various biological activities, but the main challenge conventional extraction method quality quantity compound (dye) from waste. objective this research work to use microwave-assisted (MAE) as emerging technology. Further, MAE process was optimized using Box–Behnken Design (BBD) response surface methodol...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of the intake of whole walnuts and walnut fractions on the oxidant status in mice. METHODS Thirty-six C57BL/6J male mice were randomized to be fed one of three diets: 1) a standard diet (control group), 2) a standard diet with 10% of whole walnuts (walnut-diet group), or 3) a standard diet with 2% of walnut skins (walnut-skin-diet group) for 8 wk. The plasma a...

C first walnut trees and orchards were planted during the Spanish mission period (around 1800), using seedlings of early varieties of Persian or English walnut (Juglans regia) chosen for their superior growth and nut quality. Since the 1890s, walnut trees in California have been propagated by grafting or budding desired cultivars onto rootstocks chosen for their adaptation to different physical...

SCOPE English walnut (Juglans regia) belongs to the most important allergenic tree nuts. Co-sensitization with birch (Betula verrucosa) pollen has been reported. We aimed to identify a walnut allergen homologous to the major birch pollen allergen Bet v 1. METHODS AND RESULTS A cDNA encoding a Bet v 1-homologous allergen (Jug r 5) in walnut kernels was cloned by RT-PCR. Jug r 5 was expressed i...

A study to mea~ure the effect of walnut scale infestation on English walnut qualityand yield has shown no differences in yield and no consistentdifferencein kernel quality between infested and non-infested trees for the four years ~f the study. Yield and quality of English walnut are not overly sensitive to walnut scale infestation and some degree of infestation can be tolerated with no measura...

In order to investigate the shucking technology and design the efficient Sheller, it’s highly significant to study on the mechanical characteristics of walnut. The Pro/E software and finite element method was adopted to build the geometry and finite element model of walnut. Afterwards, the walnut stress distribution with different loads was analyzed to seek the optimum force-applying forms whic...
