a set of 29 persimmon genotypes were characterized using morphological characters and rapd markers. some fruit traits of: fresh weight, fruit length and diameter, firmness, fruit juice ph, ta, tss, flavor index, fruit skin and flesh color, seededness, leaf length and width were evaluated. analysis of variance for the investigated characters showed that genotypes were significantly different. re...

variability in morphological traits, phenolic content, and antioxidant activity of 15 populations of iranian ferula species collected from natural habitats in different regions of iran were investigated. total phenolic content (tpc) of fruit extracts varied from 12.77 to 120.72 mg tannic acid per 1g dry weight. total flavonoid of fruits extract varied from 5.45 mg quercetin per 1 g dry weight i...

With the purpose of identifying characteristics variation in fruit size and seed production (potential efficiency) Cedrela odorata L. between sites progenies established ejido La Balsa, municipality Emiliano Zapata, Veracruz, fruits were harvested from 20 trees February 2013, preserving identity each one. Fruit length width measured, was extracted developed aborted seeds counted to calculate Se...

The extent to which epistasis contributes to adaptation, population differentiation, and speciation is a long-standing and important problem in evolutionary genetics. Using recombinant inbred (RI) lines of Arabidopsis thaliana grown under natural field conditions, we have examined the genetic architecture of fitness-correlated traits with respect to epistasis; we identified both single-locus ad...

Genetic variation of 36 Sechium edule accessions collected across 12 states in India was assessed using morphological traits and DAMD markers. Eighteen fruit morphological traits (both qualitative and quantitative) were evaluated to confirm the variations in the present collection. Quantitative traits showed major variations with respect to fruit weight (7.85-498.33 g/fruit), fruit length (5.8-...

to investigate the genotypic and phenotypic relationship between characteristics affecting tomato fruit weights, eleven tomato lines were compared in a rcb design with three replications. the anova showed that the difference among lines was significant for all characteristics. there was a significant phenotypic and genotypic correlations between fruit weight and most of the characteristics. the...

With its four species, Anchusa is one of the weedy genera of Boraginaceae in Iran. Its species are distributed in different habitats. In this study, the fruit morphological and micro-morphological features of the Anchusa taxa have been considered, so as to evaluate their diagnostic value. Eight qualitative and quantitative fruit features from 12 accessions of A. italica, A. strigosa, A. arvensi...

comparison and grouping of 32 grape cultivars and genotypes by using 61 traits including; 5 phenological and vegetative characters, 41 traits related to fruit and amount of resveratrol in 15 parts of plant was done according to grape descriptor and related methods. according to the results some traits such as spikelet weight, berry color, length of peduncle, length of berry tail, weight and len...

Regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) is commonly used during different phenological stages of fruit growth and development in almond trees to reduce the amount of irrigation water applied without or with only very small reductions in yield. Therefore, to study the effects of deficit and cutoff irrigation during different phenological stages of fruit growth and development in almond cv. “Mamaei” p...
