Chinese jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill) is an economically important fruit species native to China with high nutritious and medicinal value. Genotyping-by-sequencing was used to detect and genotype single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a core collection of 150 Chinese jujube accessions and further to characterize their genetic diversity, population structure, and linkage disequilibrium (LD). ...

chromium (cr) is one of the elements presents in crust of the earth. due to its toxicity, chromium is considered as water contaminant that may disturb metabolic activity. in the present study, adsorption of dissolved chromium (vi) onto elaeagnus angustifolia fruit charcoal, jujube fruit charcoal and the standard granular activated carbon (gac) has been investigated and compared. the effect of c...

Black jujube was made by aging dried jujube and its physiochemical characteristics, antioxidant activities and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities were evaluated. The moisture and sugar contents were increased depending on the period of aging times and the pH was reduced thereby increasing acidity. The color of black jujube extract was changed from red to black resulting in decreases of Hunter ...

Introduction Jujube is an important economic forest tree whose fruit rich in alkaloids. Chinese jujube ( Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) and sour spinosa Hu.) are the two most species of genus. However, mechanisms underlying synthesis metabolism alkaloids fruits remain poorly understood. Methods In this study, ‘Hupingzao’ ‘Taigusuanzao’ different harvest stages were used as test materials, we first inte...

Nanoparticles and nanotechnology have been applied in agriculture, including for plant nutrition improvement, and pest control. Little research has been conducted on nano-calcium carbonate in plant protection and nutrition. In this study, we compared the effects of nano-calcium carbonate and colloidal calcium carbonate and found that nano-calcium carbonate treatments were better at increasing c...

background & aim: fruits from the jujube plant (ziziphus jujuba) possess health-promoting effects and medicinal properties. jujube has a long history of usage as a remedy in iranian traditional medicine and is recommended for the treatment of some diseases. this study investigated the variations in antioxidant capacities (aox), total phenol (tph), total flavonoid (tf) and total anthocyanin ...
