Ingestion of a foreign body is a rare cause of small bowel obstruction. Ingested foreign bodies will usually pass without clinical sequelae, however on occasion can contribute to significant morbidity. Here we present an unusual case of small bowel obstruction and perforation as a result of accidental ingestion of a nectarine pit.

The continuous release of new nectarine [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] cultivars by breeders from around the world, together with consistent improvements in orchard management strategies growers, commercial interest production fruit fresh consumption, and introduction Spanish scion breeding programs have positioned Spain as preeminent worldwide exporter currently largest European producer [Minist...

A generic descriptive analysis using 11 judges provided 16 sensory attributes that described the aroma, flavor, and texture characteristics of 7 nectarine and peach cultivars selected for their predominant sensory attributes. Simultaneously, the "in-store" acceptability of these cultivars was evaluated by 120 consumers from northern California. The relationships among instrumental measurements ...

We report here the first complete genome sequence of a South Korean isolate of Nectarine stem pitting-associated virus (NSPaV) from peach and compare it with previously described complete NSPaV genome sequences. The highest whole-genome nucleotide sequence identity was 95.3% with GenBank accession no. KT273409 (NSPaV) from the United States.

The main aim of our work was to investigate the breeding parameters in three orchard types Algeria (apple, cherry and nectarine) for better conservation existing species. A total 149 active Turtle dove nests were monitored these man–made agro-systems. Egg laying occurred from early May continued until mid-August. started later trees stopped earlier nectarines. Nest density higher apple orchards...

In Romania, Prunus species have great economic and social importance. With the introduction of new cultivars arises need to preserve characterize local germplasm. Thus, a set 24 polymorphic SSRs were selected for overall characterization, including 10 peach, 11 apricot 5 nectarine cultivars. The average number alleles per locus (Na = 1.958), in addition observed (Ho 0.299) expected heterozygosi...

in recent years, symptoms of virus diseases on stone fruits have been observed in wide range in golestan province. in order to study the important viruses on stone fruits, cherry, plum, nectarine, peach and apricot trees with symptoms such as mosaic, chlorosis, ring spot, shot hole, pale margins in leaves and dwarf in trees, sampling was done during 2005. putative infected plants were tested by...
