Tree and orchard variability of Silver King nectarine(Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) fruit quality components
2013
The variability of crop quality accounts for most of seasonal variation of farmers’ incomes, since fruit growth and quality components may greatly change according to various environmental and within-tree factors. Canopy architecture and orchard layout are mainly responsible for fruit size, quality and its variability. A positive relationship was measured in peach between intercepted radiation and PAR and Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC). This study was carried out to measure within tree and orchard variability of fruit of the early ripening cv. Silver King nectarine (Prunus persica (L.), Batsch) 8-years-old peach trees trained to a Y-shape and Delayed vase. Fruit were picked t…
Doslidžennâ bìologìčnoï aktivnostìvtorinnogo ekstraktu zì šrotu travimaterinki zvičajnoï (Origanum vulgare)
2015
Studied the antimicrobial activity of secondary extract from oregano herbs waste (Origanum vulgare)against 7 standard test strains of microrganisms. Minimum bactericidal concentration of the extract to Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538 P-is 3.125-6.25 mg/ml and 6.25-12.5 mg/ml to gram-negative bacteria and Candida albicans ATCC 10231.Total antioxidant activity determined by DPPH, secondary extract at a concentration of 400 ug/ml was 92 %. The tested extract had photoprotective activity. Obtained results confirm the perspective of using waste of oregano herbs for making extracts and creation on their basis of pharmaceuticals, veterinary drugs and cosmetics.
Caracterización fisiológica, bioquímica y molecular de nuevas variedades de naranja de pulpa roja
2023
El objetivo principal de esta Tesis Doctoral ha sido caracterizar en profundidad los frutos de dos nuevas mutaciones de naranja dulce de pulpa roja, denominados Kirkwood Navel y Ruby Valencia, procedentes de las naranjas Washington Navel (cv. Palmer) y Valencia late (cv. Olinda), respectivamente. Para ello, se abordaron las bases fisiológicas y moleculares del metabolismo de carotenoides implicadas en la singular coloración del fruto, la evolución de los componentes de calidad de los frutos durante la maduración, su aptitud para la conservación postcosecha y comercialización en fresco, y el potencial de estas nuevas variedades para la producción y procesado de zumo. Los resultados bioquímic…
