Plum pox virus (PPV) infects Prunus trees around the globe, posing serious fruit production problems and causing severe economic losses. One variety of Prunus domestica, named 'Jojo', develops a hypersensitive response to viral infection. Here we compared infected and non-infected samples using next-generation RNA sequencing to characterize the genetic complexity of the viral population in infe...

Thermotherapy and chemotherapy in vitro were applied to eliminate Apple chlorotic leaf spot virus (ACLSV) and Prunus necrotic ring spot virus (PNRSV) from myrobalan (Prunus cerasifera var. divaricata Borgh.), PNRSV from ‘Empress’ plum (Prunus domestica L.) and Prune dwarf virus (PDV) from ‘Early Rivers’ sweet cherry (Cerasus avium (L.) Moench.) plants. ELISA assays conducted one year after ther...

This paper describes the technology developed by us for obtaining some physiologically active polysaccharides (pectic substances and hemicellulose) from domestic plum. The isolated products were identified IR spectroscopy, which made it possible to determine their qualitative characteristics. dried fruits of Prunus domestica L. analyzed content low molecular weight substances, then plant materi...

Pakistan is ranked 17th in the world for plum production, with a total output of 67,000 tonnes. In terms area and (Prunus domestica) Pakistan's second largest stone fruit, after peach. Plum domestica L.) temperate zone fruit crop, made up different varieties. This study was carried out to evaluate nutritional quality yield performance five varieties (Methley, Shakar Prune, Santa Rosa, Hersminar...
