strawberry (fragaria ananassa duch.) is a good source of natural antioxidants. fruits from eight strawberry (fragaria ananassa duch.) cultivars (‘kurdistan’, ‘merck’, ‘camarosa’, ‘paros’, ‘queen elisa’, ‘ventana’, ‘selva’ and ‘pajaro’) were harvested at ripen stage and analyzed for total phenolic content, total anthocyanin content, vitamin c, total soluble solid and total antioxidant activity. ...

eight strawberry cultivars (paros, queen elisa, pajaro, camarosa, gaviota, selva, mrak and kurdistan as local cultivar) were evaluated to select the best cultivar based on quantitative yield production in kurdistan province condition. an experiment was performed in a randomized complete block design with three replications during 2008- 2010 in grizeh research station (sanandaj). eleven morpholo...

effects of nitrogen fertilization timing close to the beginning of short-day period and white mulch on flowering and yield components have been studied in ‘paros’ and ‘queen elisa’ strawberry cultivars. split plot experiment in a randomized complete block design with eight treatments (two mulch treatments × n fertilization during four different times from last week of august to third week of se...

this experiment was conducted to study the effect of plastic mulch on the growth and some physiological characteristics of two strawberry cultivars (paros and queen elisa) under drought stress. a factorial experiment was performed based on randomized complete block design with four treatments, including mulch, without mulch, normal irrigation (control) and deficit irrigation (-10 bar) with thre...

The strawberry cultivars Arosa, Clery, Miss, Raurica, Queen Elisa, Diamante and Madeleine grown in Slovenia were harvested at the commercially maturity stage and the content of total ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) was determined. Ascorbic acid (AA) was measured by using high-performance liquid chromatography and photodiode array detector. The total AA content of cultivars ranged f...

In the present report, diagnosis and treatment of a case with follicular ovarian cysts in a 5-year-old Persian queen cat is described. In response to palpation of spines, the queen cat presented herself in lordosis and danced up and down with her rear legs. Trans-abdominal ultrasonography examination showed 2 cysts  in the left ovary of the queen. Serum estrogen assay indicated elevated level o...
