Monitoring the Shelf-Life of Minimally Processed Fresh-Cut Apple Slices By Physical–Chemical Analysis and Electronic Nose
2014
Fresh-cut apples, in slices or in cubes, are minimally processed products, which are currently collecting a great interest by fruit marketers for their promising diffusion. Their shelf life, from a microbiological point of view, has been fixed about 2 or 3 weeks under refrigeration. However in a few days they undergo biochemical degradations with production of off-flavors and texture breakdown. In this work, the change of aromatic fingerprint of apple slices packaged in air and in a modified atmosphere (with 100% N2) and stored at 4°C was measured, by using a commercial electronic nose. The obtained data were also compared with sensory evaluation of judge’s panel. Moreover, quality paramete…

STUDY ON ISOLATED MICROSPORE CULTURE IN CITRUS SINENSIS L. OSBECK CV. MORO, A BLOOD ORANGE CULTIVAR
2014
In vitro tissue culture represents a useful support for the advancement of Citrus breeding and propagation. Haploidy technology, that is the single-step development of complete homozygous genotypes from heterozygous parents through gametic embryogenesis, has already a huge impact on many relevant crops, representing an integral part in their breeding programmes (Germanà 2011a; 2011b). In order to increase the number of genotypes responding to gametic embryogenesis, in vitro isolated microspore culture of Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck cv. Moro, has been carried out, investigating the influence of the culture medium composition, and, particularly, of the plant growth regulator types and concentra…

Gli aploidi (piante con un numero gametofitico di cromosomi nello sporofito: n invece di 2n) ed i doppio-aploidi (aploidi che hanno raddoppiato il numero di cromosomi spontaneamente o in maniera indotta) trovano numerose applicazioni nel miglioramento genetico vegetale, ed in particolare, nella mutagenesi, nella selezione in vitro, nella trasformazione, nell’utilizzo della variabilità gametoclonale ed anche nel sequenziamento del genoma e negli studi di genomica funzionale. Pertanto, essi costituiscono uno strumento biotecnologico particolarmente interessante nel miglioramento genetico delle piante. Ai fini dell’ottenimento dell’omozigosi nell’olivo, come in tutte le piante arboree, caratte…

2015
In this study, vitro-derived plantlets of 'Carrizo' citrange were inoculated with Glomus intraradices during the acclimatization phase, from in vitro to in vivo. Plantlets were grown in presence (+M) and in absence of inoculum (-M) and in addition, in sterile and non-sterile substrate. After three months of culture, some vegetative parameters and the level of infection, varied greatly in the different theses. In particular, the highest formation of new branched roots has been observed in inoculated plantlets cultivated in sterile substrate. Good results were observed also in non-inoculated plantlets cultivated in non-sterile substrate, in presence of endemic inoculum. The same trend was obs…

In vitro establishment and culture of two Sicilian cultivars of Olea europaea L
2012
Sicily is among the Italian regions with the largest cultivation area of olive (Olea europaea L.). The applications of in vitro tissue culture, as practical tool of propagation and germplasm storage, were not sufficiently exploited in this species, because of the lack of efficient in vitro establishment protocols and culture for the majority of the cultivars. In fact, it is well known that the success of in vitro culture is strongly dependent on the species and, within the species, on the cultivars. This study reports the in vitro establishment of two Sicilian olive cultivars, grown in greenhouse. Both genotypes showed a percentage of in vitro sprouting higher than that one previously obtai…

Breeding of Orchids Using Conventional and Biotechnological Methods: Advances and Future Prospects
2023
The domestication of plants, including ornamental plants, is an ancient tradition based on human curiosity and is the first form of plant breeding based on modern agriculture. However, recent advances in biotechnology, molecular biology, and genetic engineering, associated with better knowledge of the genome, have enabled numerous achievements to advance agriculture towards a new green revolution. In orchids, it has not been different, and recent advances in genome sequencing and the development of more sophisticated breeding techniques based on biotechnology have demonstrated their applicability for the constitution of more sophisticated cultivars. However, conventional breeding by directe…

Risulta comprovata nell’industria agroalimentare l’efficacia di oli essenziali di agrumi quale tecnologia per esaltare la sapidità di cibi e bevande. Ad oggi, il rinnovato interesse verso gli oli essenziali deriva dalle loro proprietà antibatteriche ed antifungine, che possono trovare ampia applicazione in sistemi hurdle-technology ai fini di prolungare la shelf-life di agroprodotti, specie in cibi minimally-processed e di IV gamma. Infatti, la necessità di ricercare nuove sostanze non di sintesi con proprietà antimicrobiche deriva dai cambiamenti legislativi in campo alimentare, dalla tendenza dei consumatori ad acquistare cibi processati naturalmente e dalla crescente resistenza dei patog…
EFFECTS ON SEED GERMINATION OF DIFFERENT BIOCHARS FROM INDUSTRIAL THERMOCHEMICAL PROCESSES
2014
Char or biochar is a type of charcoal obtained from gasification/pyrolysis of biomasses. Instead of burning standing biomass from cleared forest, the resource is charred. The result is a highly porous, carbon-rich solid residue, really similar in appearance to the coal produced by natural burning. First considered an industrial waste, in recent years, the interest in this material has grown enormously given its ability to improve physical, chemical, biological and mechanical properties of soils, when used as amendment. However, its effects are highly variable depending onits chemical-physical properties which in turn depend greatly on the starting feedstock. The present study reports about …

Seasonal variations of antimicrobial activity and chemical composition of Citrus limon L. Burm. spp. essential oils
2013
The interest towards the application of essential oils (EOs) is increasing due to the antimicrobial potential to be used as “natural” alternative to the chemical preservation of foods [1]. EOs are aromatic oily liquids produced as secondary metabolites in various plants exerting different biological properties, such as antibacterial, antiviral, antimycotic and insecticidal. EOs are complex mixtures of lipophilic substances and the chemical composition, thereby the biological activities, is influenced by the raw plant material (genotype, part of the plant, harvest time, geographical, ecological conditions and cultural techniques) and extraction method [2].

C35, a hybrid of ‘Ruby Blood’ sweet orange and trifoliate orange, is a promising Citrus rootstock, mainly due to its resistance to Citrus Tristeza Virus (CTV), one of the most serious pathology affecting citriculture. The use of resistant rootstocks, such as citranges, is an efficient tool to fight this plant disease. This implies a continuous increasing demand of resistant rootstocks, in order to carry out the turnover of sour orange, still the most used Citrus rootstock in Italy. Micropropagation, can provide innovative solutions to obtain, in a short time and in a small space, a number of plants higher than traditional propagation. Micropropagation efficiency is also affected by the cult…

The encapsulation technology represents a new tool to integrate micropropagation into the nursery activity. It allows combining the advantages of zygotic or gamic seeds with those of micropropagation. The synthetic or artificial seeds have been defined as “artificially encapsulated somatic embryos, shoots or other tissues which can be used for sowing under in vitro or ex vitro conditions”. This will be a powerful propagation tool in the nurseryman hands, if the levels of the synthetic seeds conversion can be increased also in the nurseries, without the asepsis of in vitro laboratories and with the presence of many parasitic microorganisms, like bacteria and fungi, responsible for contaminat…
