Root shape is an important characteristic that affects the commodity of radish (Raphanus sativus L.), which can be measured using ratio root length (RL) to diameter (RD). Although it known controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTLs), reliable QTLs for are still lacking. In present study, we used three F2 populations (1902, 1908 and 1909) derived from crossing five cultivars with highly diverge...

length of buds and roots, and with the increase in weight of the gerrninating seeds. By regression analysis, the heat produced peT unit of bud and root growth was found to be ai = O.572S J/mm ef bud and a2 = O.7093 Jlmm of root. respectively, with a correlation coefficient of O,9577, From these results we conclude that the calorimetric deterrnination of the heat generated during geTmination is ...

Abstract Radish downy mildew (DM) caused by the oomycete Hyaloperonospora brassicae f. sp. raphani is a serious problem in radish crop, an edible root vegetable of Brassicaceae family. The objective this research was to assess germplasm for DM resistance and evaluate response different organs disease under controlled conditions. Forty-four accessions were inoculated at cotyledons true-leaves wi...

Active agar (AG) bilayer films with bioactive capability and electrochemical writing property were developed for improving the postharvest quality of banana. The antioxidant antimicrobial capacity enhanced incorporation red radish extract (RRE) neem essential oil (NEO) into AG lower layer. barrier mechanical properties, retention total anthocyanin NEO content in effectively improved addition Ti...

This work was aimed at evaluating the activity of native phosphate solubilizing bacteria on growth and development of radish (Raphanus sativus L.) plants. Bacteria were isolated from the Departament of Sucre (Colombia) soil using selective media (NBRIP), further identifi ed by macroscopic and microscopic observation and biochemically characterized using the API System. Their ability to solubliz...

Campylobacter jejuni has been isolated previously from market produce and has caused gastroenteritis outbreaks linked to produce. We have tested the ability of this human pathogen to utilize organic compounds that are present in leaf and root exudates and to survive in the plant environment under various conditions. Carbon utilization profiles revealed that C. jejuni can utilize many organic ac...
