The codling moth Cydia pomonella (Linnaeus) (Lepidoptera Tortricidae) is a key pest of pome fruit (apple, pear and quince) and walnut orchards in most temperate regions of the world (Barnes 1991; CABI 1995). The moth has followed the spread of the apple tree Malus pumila Miller around the world, and

The objective of this study was to determine the chemical composition, in situ rumen Dry Matter (DMD) and Organic Matter Degradability (OMD48) of Apple tree leaves. In this study, Apple tree leaves were collected from the different parts of East Azerbaijan province. Chemical composition including Dry Matter (DM), Crude Protein (CP), crude Ash (Ash), ether extract, Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF),...

Haematology is a rapidly growing field of medicine. The advent of new molecular biology methods has enhanced our knowledge of blood disorders, but further complicated the study of this important branch of medicine. Although, modern day students tend to have better information technology skills than their predecessors and seem to be very interested in molecular biology methods, the comprehension...

Orchard intensification is motivated by the desire to produce fruit early in the life of the orchard to rapidly recover establishment costs. Intensification is possible using dwarfing rootstocks that control tree size, induce early cropping and produce large quantities of fruit compared to the amount of wood produced. Therefore, this study attempts to compare some yield and fruit properties of ...

miRNAs are important regulators involving in plant-pathogen interactions. However, their roles in apple tree response to Valsa canker pathogen (Valsa mali, Vm) infection were poorly understood. In this study, we constructed two miRNA libraries using the twig bark tissues of apple tree (Malus domestica Borkh. cv. "Fuji") inoculated with Vm (IVm) and PDA medium (control, BMd). Among all detected ...

Four of five apple cultivars (Golden Delicious, Red Delicious, McIntosh, Macoun, and Melrose) inoculated with Escherichia coli O157:H7 promoted growth of the bacterium in bruised tissue independent of the date of harvest (i.e., degree of apple ripening) or the source of the apple (i.e., tree-picked or dropped fruit). Apple harvest for this study began 4 September 1998 and ended 9 October, with ...
