Genetic Diversity and Population Structure Analysis of Triticum aestivum L. Landrace Panel from Afghanistan
(MDPI, 2021-02-25)
Landraces are a potential source of genetic diversity and provide useful genetic resources to cope with the current and future challenges in crop breeding. Afghanistan is located close to the centre of ...
Effectiveness of a pomegranate peel extract (PGE) in reducing Listeria monocytogenes in vitro and on fresh-cut pear, apple and melon
(Springer, 2020-06-10)
Pomegranate peel extract (PGE) is a new promising natural alternative control substance with large spectrum of activity against wide range of pathogenic microorganisms. In the present study, PGE was ...
‘Honeycrisp’ Bitter Pit Response to Rootstock and Region under Eastern New York Climatic Conditions
(MDPI, 2021-05-14)
There are still unknown factors at play in the causation of bitter pit in ‘Honeycrisp’ as well as in other apple varieties. To investigate some of these factors, we conducted a survey of 34 ‘Honeycrisp’ ...
Bee and non-bee pollinator importance for local food security
(Elsevier, 2022-12-08)
Pollinators are critical for food security; however, their contribution to the pollination of locally important crops is still unclear, especially for non-bee pollinators. We reviewed the diversity, ...
Rooting big and deep rapidly: the ecological roots of pine species distribution in southern Europe
(Springer Verlag, 2018-10-09)
Root properties can influence plant drought resistance, and consequently plant species distribution. Root structure strongly varies across biomes partly as a result of phylogeny. However, whether the ...
Selection of a Probiotic for Its Potential for Developing a Synbiotic Peach and Grape Juice
(MDPI, 2024-01-22)
Due to recent interest in the potential of probiotics as health promoters and the impact of health and environmental concerns on eating habits, non-dairy probiotic food products are required. This study ...
Using plant growth‑promoting microorganisms (PGPMs) to improve plant development under in vitro culture conditions
(Springer, 2022-05-05)
Plant in vitro culture techniques are highly useful to obtain signifcant amounts of true-to-type and disease-free
plant materials. One of these techniques is clonal micropropagation which consists on ...
Grifola frondosa (Maitake) Extract Reduces Fat Accumulation and Improves Health Span in C. elegans through the DAF-16/FOXO and SKN-1/NRF2 Signalling Pathways
(MDPI, 2021-11-07)
In recent years, food ingredients rich in bioactive compounds have emerged as candidates to prevent excess adiposity and other metabolic complications characteristic of obesity, such as low-grade ...
Chromosome-level genome assemblies of four wild peach species provide insights into genome evolution and genetic basis of stress resistance
(BMC, 2022-06-13)
Background: Peach (Prunus persica) is an economically important stone fruit crop in Rosaceae and widely cultivated in temperate and subtropical regions, emerging as an excellent material to study the ...
Evaluation of postharvest calcium treatment and biopreservation with Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG on the quality of fresh-cut ‘Conference’ pears
(Wiley, 2018-03-25)
BACKGROUND
Biological preservation with probiotic bacteria has arisen as an alternative to control the growth of foodborne pathogens on food. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of ...
