China is one of the most important centers of diversity for Eriobotrya japonica Lindl. in the world. In this study, seven loquat cultivars grown in China were evaluated for their phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity. Eleven phenolic compounds, i.e., 3-p-coumaroylquinincacid (3-p-CoQA), 5-caffeoylquinic acid (5-CQA), 4-caffeoylquinic acid (4-CQA), 3-caffeoylquinic acid (3-CQA), 5-feruloyl...

Amygdalin is widely distributed in loquat plant which belongs to Rosaceae and used as an important pharmaceutical compound. In this research, High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) was used to determine the content of amygdalin in different tissues of loquat fruit cv. ‘Dahongpao’, as well as leaves, roots and flowers. The results demonstrated that the kernel had the highest content of am...

SWEETs (sugars will eventually be exported transporters) have various physiological and biochemical roles in plant growth, including pollen development, seed nourishment, nectar secretion, longer-distance sugar transportation. The SWEET genes were identified species, but they not yet been thoroughly characterized. Here, we discovered 21 putative from the Eriobotrya japonica Lindl. genome. For f...

Gamma amino butyric acid (GABA), an important free in plant tissues, plays essential role all stages of growth and development. In this study, we aimed to explore the effects GABA on nutrient absorption loquat [Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) Lindl.] seedlings. The applying exogenous different concentrations (0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2 g L−1) uptake seedlings were studied. increased biomass (dry weight...

This study was conducted to analyze the effect of molybdenum (Mo) on level macronutrients (Mg, K, Ca), micronutrients (Na, Zn, B, Mo, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu) and toxic elements (Cd, Sn, As, Cr, Hg, Pb) in leaves fruit tissues (peel, pulp & seed) loquat using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Fruits were obtained from a orchard located Fujian (Yun Xiao/Zhangzhou). Loquat sho...
