Huanglongbing (HLB) or citrus greening disease is an extremely dangerous infection which has severely influenced the citrus industry in Florida. It was also recently found in California and Texas. There is no effective cure for this disease reported yet. The infected trees should be identified and removed immediately to prevent the disease from being spread to other trees. The visual leaf sympt...

Concentrations of the macronutrients (K, Ca, Mg, Na, P and S) and micronutrients (Fe, B, Zn, Mn and Cu) in whole fruit, pulp, rind and albedo of fruit from young and mature 'Bellamy' navel orange trees were measured at fortnightly intervals during fruit development. The general order of abundance of the macronutrients were K > Ca > Mg ˆ P > S > Na and the abundance of the micronutrients followe...

Commonwealth contributions to the British diet 69 were much lower than in 1939, the decline would not appear to be permanent; it is partly explained by heavy sales to the Continent. The Union can supply processed fruit-jam, marmalade, canned fruit, dried fruit, fruit pulp and fruit juices-in substantial quantities. With some, e.g. dried fruit and fruit juices, the price obtainable militates aga...

We previously reported that the dried peel powder of Citrus kawachiensis, a citrus product Japan, exerted anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects in brains transient global cerebral ischemia model mice. It also ameliorated hyperphosphorylation Tau protein suppression neurogenesis senescence-accelerated mouse-prone 8 aging model. Chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) induces anxiety-lik...

The effectiveness of three carbohydrate sources, high-moisture ear corn (HMEC), cracked shelled corn (CSC), and a 50:50 mixture of HMEC plus dried citrus pulp (DCP), fed with or without supplemental rumen-undegraded protein as expeller soybean meal (ESBM), was assessed in 48 multiparous dairy cows. All diets contained (dry mater [DM] basis) 50% alfalfa silage, 10% ryegrass silage, 28% NDF, and ...

in this research, the effect of ph onthe performance of nanobentonite -chitosan system (as dry strength additives) in hardwood chemi-mechanicalpulp (cmp) was studied.for this purpose, 3 levels of ph(5.5, 7, 8.5) and 3 levels of chitosan (0.75, 1.25 and 2% - based on oven dried pulp) in constant level of 0.3 nanobentonite(based on oven dried pulp) were applied.the atomic force microscopy(afm) im...
