The quick and non-detective detection of agriculture product is one of the measures to increase the precision and productivity of harvesting and grading. Having analyzed H frequency of different maturities in different light intensities, the results show that H frequency for the same maturity has little influence in different light intensities; Under the same light intensity, three strawberry m...

Here, we present new original data on the effects of strawberry consumption on body weight and liver status of aged rats. Wistar rats aged 19-21 months were fed a strawberry enriched diet prepared by substituting 15% of the total calories with freeze-dried strawberry powder for two months. Body weight, plasma biomarkers of liver injury (alanine transferase, aspartate aminotransferase and alkali...

Methods and materials The sample included 40 primary care pediatricians from Sarajevo during last ten years 2000-2010; 95% of the respondents reported providing care for strawberry allergic children patients. The specific criteria used to diagnose food allergy may therefore have a significant impact on the results of these studies, especially those used to measure the prevalence of strawberry a...

BACKGROUND AND AIM Free radicals are implicated in the aetiology of gastrointestinal disorders such as gastric ulcer, colorectal cancer and inflammatory bowel disease. Strawberries are common and important fruit due to their high content of essential nutrient and beneficial phytochemicals which seem to have relevant biological activity on human health. In the present study we investigated the a...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of some technological processes on the residual levels of imidacloprid in strawberry fruits and products. according to their half-life (t1/2) values, strawberry fruits can be safely harvested for human consumption 7.4 days after spraying. the removal ratio of imidacloprid residue in strawberries was in the range of 9.9–30.55% by washing with t...

Moročko, I. 2006. Characterization of the strawberry pathogen Gnomonia fragariae, and biocontrol possibilities. Doctoral dissertation. ISSN 1652-6880, ISBN 91-576-7120-6 The strawberry root rot complex or black root rot is common and increasing problem in perennial strawberry plantings worldwide. In many cases the causes of root rot are not detected or it is referred to several pathogens. Durin...

Fresh strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa) are valued for their characteristic red color, juicy texture, distinct aroma, and sweet fruity flavor. In this study, genetic and environmentally induced variation is exploited to capture biochemically diverse strawberry fruit for metabolite profiling and consumer rating. Analyses identify fruit attributes influencing hedonics and sensory perception of s...

Control of flowering in the perennial model, the woodland strawberry (Fragaria vesca L.), involves distinct molecular mechanisms that result in contrasting photoperiodic flowering responses and growth cycles in different accessions. The F. vesca homolog of TERMINAL FLOWER1 (FvTFL1) functions as a key floral repressor that causes short-day (SD) requirement of flowering and seasonal flowering hab...

The cultivated strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) is an important berry crop worldwide due to its flavourful taste, and high content of nutrients and health-beneficial phytochemicals. Derived from interspecific hybridization of the octoploids F. virginiana and F. chiloensis, a vast number of strawberry varieties have been developed adopted to varying growth environments, and in order to mee...

Strawberry is an important fruit crop within the UK. To reduce the impact of soil-borne diseases and extend the production season, more than half of the UK strawberry production is now in substrate (predominantly coir) under protection. Substrates such as coir are usually depleted of microbes including arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and consequently the introduction of beneficial microbes i...
