Walnut (Juglans regia L.) is the oldest fruit grown in world and grows spontaneously almost throughout Romania. In this study, physical properties chemical composition of twenty types walnuts from three different locations Romania were studied. The analyzes that performed were: walnut dimensions shape (nut diameter, nut length, size), (walnut weight, kernel weight percentage kernel) external ex...

UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Microsatellite loci were developed for a monotypic species endemic to subtropical China, Cyclocarya paliurus, to help infer the evolutionary histories of ancient monotypic genera in subtropical China. • METHODS AND RESULTS Using the Fast Isolation by AFLP of Sequences COntaining repeats (FIASCO) protocol, 28 primer sets were identified in two wild population...

Objectives Oxidative stress has a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR). Juglans regia L. (JRL) leaf extract has hypoglycemic and antioxidative properties. This study aimed to determine the ameliorative effects of JRL against diabetic retinopathy. Materials and Methods The DR rat model was generated by injection of streptozotocin (STZ). A subset of the diabetic rats re...

Objectives: Walnut (Juglans regia L.) kernel septum (or septa) (WKS), a traditional nutraceutical material in China, has not been explored detail. In this study, antimicrobial activity, total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant-oxidant status of WKS was investigated case it may be clinically important the management various complications. Methods: The extracted with ethanol Soxhlet device. T...

Walnut (Juglans regia L.) production is a developing sector in Hungarian horticulture, where preharvest fruit rot increasingly causes economic losses. Previously, fungi from the Diaporthaceae and Botryosphaeriaceae families were isolated with high incidence rotten fruits. Here, we identify these pathogens different plant parts (twigs, buds, shoots) orchards north-east of Hungary, test their pat...
