Early harvest prevents internal browning in Asian pears [PDF]
Brown discoloration of the core, carpels and flesh of ‘Ya Li’ and ‘Seuri’ Chinese pears during storage depends on harvest date, not storage temperature. In this trial, fruit harvested no later than 180 days after full bloom showed no signs of browning.

ADAPTABILITY OF ASIAN PEARS TO SOUTH CAROLINA'S SANDHILLS REGION [PDF]
An Asian pcar variety trial planted in 1989 near Columbia, South Carolina was evaluated for growth, productivity, and disease resistance for 4 years. A total of 13 cultivars were observed. The Chinese types Ya Li and Shin Li reached full bloom in mid-March 2 weeks before the Japanese types. The latest blooming cultivars were Choju and Twentieth Century.

Identification of S-genotypes and a novel S-RNase in 84 native Chinese pear accessions
The Chinese pear (Pyrus spp.) exhibits typical gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI), which inhibits self-crossing and promotes out-crossing, similar to other fruit species in the Rosaceae family.

Study of Impact and Compression Damage on Asian Pears
Result of impact and compression tests on Chojuro, Twentieth Century, Tsu Li, and Ya Li varieties of Asian pears indicate that Chojuro pears are the firmest and most resistant to mechanical damage. At the time of harvest, Tsu Li and Ya Li pears could resist mechanical damage nearly as well as Chojuro pears, but they become more susceptible to bruising ...

Identification of Asian Pear Varieties by SSR Analysis
Sixty Asian pear accessions from 6 Pyrus species were genetically identified by 9 SSR markers with a total of 133 putative alleles. Among them, 58 varieties could be successfully differentiated except for 2 pairs of synonymous or clonal varieties. All the SSR markers produced 1 or 2 discrete amplified fragments for all the diploid accessions, whereas a

Beneficial Body Mass Index for Age‐Related Kidney Function in Males and Females
The impact of BMI on age‐related kidney function decline is highly sex‐ and age‐dependent. Normal BMI (18.5–25 kg/m2) is associated with better age‐related kidney function in all‐aged males and females older than 45 years. ABSTRACT Objectives Kidney function declines with aging, leading to a high prevalence of age‐related disease.

SITE EFFECTS ON SUSCEPTIBILITY OF ASIAN PEARS TO FIRE BLIGHT [PDF]
Kentucky is one of seven states in the southeast evaluating 13 Asian pear cultivars for suitability to the region. The cultivars were planted on a (20′ × 10′) spacing in 1989 at three separate locations. Data on time of bloom, tree growth, fire blight susceptibility and fruit quality and yield were collected.

Outbreak of Fire Blight of Apple and Asian Pear in 2015–2019 in Korea [PDF]
Erwinia amylovora, a causal bacterium of fire blight disease, is registered as a prohibited quarantine pathogen in Korea. To control the disease, the government should diagnose the disease, dig and bury the host trees when fire blight occurs. Fire blight was the first reported in 43 orchards of Anseong, Cheonan, and Jecheon in 2015, and 42.9 ha of host

Seasonal Fluctuations of Plastochromanol‐8 and α‐Tocopherol Amounts in the Leaves of Cecropia Trees
ABSTRACT Plastochromanol‐8 (PC‐8) is a homologue of γ‐tocotrienol with a longer side chain (eight instead of three isoprene units) and therefore also a representative of the tocochromanol (vitamin E) group. PC‐8 has been determined in various plants and seeds, with Cecropia sp. leaves showing unusually high levels.
